Company Overview and Product Description
SPX Technologies, Inc., through its subsidiaries, is a supplier of highly engineered products and technologies, holding leadership positions in the HVAC and detection and measurement markets. Based in Charlotte, North Carolina, SPX Corporation had over $1.7 billion in revenue in the year ended December 31, 2023 and more than 4,100 employees in 15 countries.
1
The Company’s operations may at times manufacture, or contract to manufacture, products for which conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of those products (collectively, the “products”). Certain of the products contain materials or components that use metallic forms of tin, tantalum, tungsten, and/or gold (“subject minerals”). For the Reporting Period, the Company reasonably determined that the following product groups contain subject minerals:
| · | Dry cooling systems; | |
| · | Evaporative and hybrid cooling systems; | |
| · | Rotating and stationary heat exchangers; pollution control systems; | |
| · | Boilers and water heaters; | |
| · | Heating and ventilation products; | |
| · | Air blowers and exhaust systems; | |
| · | Industrial refrigeration products; | |
| · | Spectrum monitoring and signal monitoring systems; | |
| · | Obstruction lighting; | |
| · | Marine and aviation Aids to navigation products; |
| · | Tactical datalinks and radio frequency (“RF”) countermeasures; | |
| · | Fare collection systems; | |
| · | Portable cable and pipe locators; and | |
| · | Pipeline inspection and rehabilitation equipment. | |
| · | Ground penetrating radar products and robotics used in underground utilities |
The due diligence efforts noted below were undertaken on the products manufactured by us in the Reporting Period.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
SPX conducted a good faith RCOI regarding the potential inclusion of conflict minerals in the products during the Reporting Period. There is significant overlap between the Company’s RCOI efforts and the due diligence measures performed. Although some of our products contain subject minerals, we typically do not purchase raw materials directly from mines, smelters, or refiners and we are many steps removed in the supply chain from the sources of ore from which these metals are produced and the smelters/refiners that process those ores. Accordingly, we rely on direct suppliers in the supply chain between us and the original sources of raw materials to provide information regarding the origin of any conflict minerals that may be included in the products.
We have taken steps to identify the applicable smelters and refiners of such subject minerals metals in our supply chain. However, as a downstream purchaser of components and materials that contain subject minerals, our RCOI and due diligence measures can provide only reasonable - not absolute - assurance regarding the source and chain of custody of the conflict minerals. The Company’s RCOI and due diligence processes are based on the necessity of seeking data from direct suppliers and those suppliers seeking similar information within their supply chains to identify the original sources of the subject minerals contained in components and materials supplied to us. Another complicating factor is the unavailability of country of origin and chain of custody information from direct suppliers on a continuous, real-time basis. The Company’s available sources of information may yield inaccurate or incomplete information and may be subject to fraud. The Company engaged Source Intelligence, a third-party consultant with expertise in supplier engagement, to assist the Company in its RCOI.
The Company began its RCOI by identifying product families and commodities that may contain subject minerals. Using information derived from the Company’s procurement systems, supplemented by information supplied by personnel in the Company’s business units supply chain, SPX identified direct suppliers of components and materials that may contain subject minerals.
2
Direct suppliers were provided information by the Company describing its Conflict Minerals Compliance Program (the “CMCP”) requirements and identifying Source Intelligence as the Company’s third-party consultant assisting in the process. The third-party consultant sent direct suppliers additional information with respect to the CMCP, including an educational tool to facilitate a deeper understanding of the program and why information was being requested. We requested that each of these identified direct suppliers complete a survey utilizing the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative’s Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”). Suppliers were offered two options to submit the required information, either by uploading the CMRT in Microsoft Excel format or by completing an online survey version of this template directly in the third-party consultant’s platform. This survey, among other things, solicited information regarding the location and identity of smelters and refiners. Suppliers that did not promptly complete a survey were contacted in accordance with an escalating protocol by our third-party consultant and, if still not responding, by us in efforts to get all direct suppliers to complete the survey.
Suppliers were asked to provide information regarding the sourcing of their materials with the ultimate goal of identifying the smelters or refiners of the conflict minerals and associated mine countries of origin. Suppliers who had already performed a RCOI through the use of the CMRT were asked to upload this document into the third-party consultant’s platform or to provide this information in the online survey version. Where a supplier was unable to provide a CMRT, the third-party consultant requested information on its suppliers of products or components which may require conflict minerals for their production or functionality. These Tier 2 suppliers, and subsequent tiers of suppliers as needed, were then engaged following the contact procedures explained above. When contact information was provided, Tier 2 and beyond suppliers were contacted via email in order to build a chain-of-custody back to the smelter or refiner. Suppliers were given the ability to share information at a level with which they were most comfortable, i.e. company, product or user-defined, but the declaration scope was required to be specified.
Supplier responses were evaluated for plausibility, consistency, and gaps. If any of the following “quality control” flags were raised, suppliers were contacted and requested to provide clarification:
| · | One or more smelter or refiners (“SORs”) were listed for an unused metal; |
| · | SOR information was not provided for a used metal, or SOR information provided was not a verified metal processor; |
| · | Supplier answered “yes” to sourcing from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or adjoining countries, but none of the SORs listed are known to source from the region; |
| · | Supplier indicated that they have not received conflict minerals data for each metal from all relevant suppliers; |
| · | Supplier indicated they have not identified all of the SORs used for the products included in the declaration scope; |
| · | Supplier indicated they have not provided all applicable SOR information received; and |
| · | Supplier indicated 100% of the conflict minerals for products covered by the declaration originates from scrap/recycled sources, but one or more SORs listed are not known to be exclusive recyclers. |
A total of 239 Tier 1 suppliers were identified as in-scope for conflict mineral regulatory purposes and contacted as part of the RCOI process conducted by Source Intelligence. The response rate among these suppliers was 78%. Of these responding suppliers, 65% indicated one or more of the subject conflict minerals as necessary to the functionality or production of the products they supply to SPX. Using the information collected from the surveys completed by these direct suppliers, and Source Intelligence’s smelter/refiner database, we determined certain of the subject minerals used in such products may have originated from the Covered Countries. As such, we proceeded to exercise due diligence.
Due Diligence Framework and Measures
We designed our due diligence framework to materially conform to applicable portions of the OECD (2016), OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas: Third Edition, OECD Publishing, Paris. http://dx.doi.org/10.1787/9789264252479-en (“OECD Guidelines”).
3
In accordance with applicable portions of the OECD Guidance for downstream companies such as the Company, the due diligence measures we performed include, but are not limited to, the following:
| · | Reporting to senior management regarding the structure of our conflict minerals program. |
| · | Reporting to senior management on direct suppliers’ responses to our conflict minerals information requests. |
| · | Communicating our policy on conflict minerals to direct suppliers. |
| · | Communicating the commitments and requirements expected of our direct suppliers, supported by, when appropriate, email and phone dialogues. |
| · | Comparing smelters and refiners identified by our direct suppliers to the lists of validated conflict free and verified facilities and conducting independent research. |
| · | Including contractual terms and conditions regarding procurement practices that encourage our direct suppliers to purchase raw materials from smelters / refiners which have achieved a compliant designation by the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (the “RMI”) or have an audit program with which RMI has mutual recognition. |
| · | Consideration of developing a risk mitigation plan that allows for continued trade with a supplier as appropriate through the supplier’s risk mitigation efforts and evaluating the business relationship with suppliers that do not address the risks. |
Due Diligence Results
We utilized the CMRT to solicit our relevant direct suppliers to gather detailed information regarding the existence of subject minerals in materials or components sold to us, as well as the origin and chain of custody of the subject minerals. We compared the list of SORs identified to us by suppliers with those included in lists of validated conflict free and verified facilities: the RMAP, the London Bullion Market Association Good Delivery Program and the Responsible Jewellery Council Chain-of-Custody Certification. If the SOR is not certified by these internationally-recognized schemes, Source Intelligence attempted to contact the SOR to gain more information about their sourcing practices, including countries of origin and transfer, and whether there are any internal due diligence procedures in place or other processes the SORs takes to track the chain-of-custody on the source of its mineral ores. Relevant information includes: whether the SOR has a documented, effective and communicated conflict-free policy, an accounting system to support a mass balance of materials processed, and traceability documentation. Internet research was also performed to determine whether there are any outside sources of information regarding the SOR’s sourcing practices.
To date information received from direct suppliers was inconclusive in indicating that subject minerals in our supply chain directly or indirectly financed or benefitted armed groups in the Covered Countries; even so, based on the information provided by these suppliers and our own due diligence efforts for the Reporting Period, we do not have sufficient information to conclusively determine the countries of origin or chain of custody of subject minerals in the products. Some suppliers disclosed to us that scrap/recycled sources of subject minerals were identified in their supply chains and did not require due diligence.
Based on the information provided by these suppliers and information available from RMI and the other sources identified above, SPX believes the smelters and refiners and the countries of origin of subject minerals processed by these smelters and refiners that may have been used to produce subject minerals used in the products include those listed on Annexes A and B.
In addition, based on our due diligence certain potential smelters/refiners listed by our direct suppliers were omitted from this Report because the verification status for the smelter/refiner was inconclusive for a variety of reasons. These reasons include, without limitation, that a direct supplier listed the smelter/refiner for processing a metal the smelter/refiner it is not known to process; that RMI determined the smelter/refiner no longer meets the definition of a smelter or refiner; that RMI determined the company listed as a smelter/refiner does not smelt or refine, or exclusively recycles subject minerals; that RMI has retired the parent or group level smelter/refiner; that RMI determined the smelter/refiner does not meets the definition of a smelter/refiner; or otherwise our due diligence was inconclusive with regard to the entity.
4
Additional Due Diligence and Risk Mitigation
SPX intends to continue to evaluate its due diligence program, and, in particular, intends to periodically review the criteria used to select suppliers for solicitation. We expect to continue to engage with our direct suppliers so that they more closely comply with SPX’s conflict minerals policy and are able to track the sourcing of conflict minerals with greater precision. To that end, the Company expects to continue outreach efforts among the direct supplier base, particularly with respect to direct suppliers that have not previously conducted business with the Company and with respect to direct suppliers that are unable to provide greater transparency as to their own sourcing practices.
Independent Audit Report
Consistent with Rule 13p-1 and the SEC’s April 29, 2014 statement* relating to Rule 13p-1, this Report is not required to be accompanied by an independent private sector audit.

Annexes
The information in the below tables, Annexes A and B, have been gathered and transmitted through multiple levels of our supply chain, and there is a risk that it is not accurate or current. In most cases, direct suppliers provided smelter and/or refiner information and therefore any country of origin data related to such smelter and/or refiner for their entire supply chain without identifying which smelters and/or refiners may have contributed conflict minerals to components and materials actually supplied to us. Accordingly, we cannot verify that any of the smelters and/or refiners or country of origin data shown in these tables actually were part of our supply chain. The presence of a smelter or refiner in this table does not necessarily mean that conflict minerals processed at that smelter or refiner were used in any components and materials supplied to us or in any SPX products.
