Section 1 — Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Introduction

HD Supply Holdings, Inc. and HD Supply, Inc. (collectively with their direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, “HD Supply” or the “Company”) comprise one of the largest industrial distributors in North America. We believe we have leading positions in the two distinct market sectors in which we specialize: Maintenance, Repair & Operations; and Specialty Construction. We operate through approximately 270 branches and 44 distribution centers across the U.S. and Canada. We have approximately 11,000 associates delivering localized, customer-tailored products, services and expertise. We serve approximately 500,000 customers, which include contractors, government entities, maintenance professionals, home builders and industrial businesses. Our broad range of end-to-end product lines and services include approximately 600,000 stock-keeping units of quality, name-brand and proprietary-brand products as well as value-add services supporting the life-cycle of a project from construction to maintenance, repair and operations.

The Company does not directly manufacture products but “contracts to manufacture” based on its suppliers’ branded and generic products containing metallic forms of gold, tin, tungsten and tantalum (or “3TGs”).  The efforts described herein were undertaken on the exclusive and/or privately-branded products which we sourced directly or were otherwise specifically manufactured for the Company during calendar year 2017.

Certain HD Supply products contain materials or components that use metallic forms of tin, tantalum, tungsten and/or gold.  Generally speaking, the amount of information available globally on the traceability and sourcing of these ores is limited at this time.  The Company has taken steps to identify the applicable smelters and refiners of such 3TG metals in our supply chain; however, due to the depth of the supply chain, the Company is far removed from the sources of ore from which these metals are produced and the smelters/refiners that process those ores.  The Company relies on its suppliers to provide information on the origin of any conflict minerals contained in components and materials supplied to us.

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI)

Direct suppliers were asked to provide answers to the Supply Chain Questionnaire adapted from the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition-Global e-Sustainability Initiative’s (“EICC-GeSI”) Conflict Minerals Common Reporting Template (CMRT) reflecting HD Supply’s position on the supply chain.  The CMRT was developed by several of the world’s leading consumer electronics companies and is regarded as the most common reporting tool for conflict minerals content and sourcing information worldwide.

The Company reviewed the questionnaires received for completeness and consistency of answers.  Suppliers were required to provide corrections and clarifications where needed.

As such, the Company believes the RCOI process followed was reasonably designed and performed in good faith.  However, there are inherent limitations in the information provided by third parties including but not limited to potential inaccuracies, incompleteness or falsified information despite the Company’s efforts to validate and confirm the information.

Determination

Since the Company received inconclusive data from our direct suppliers, the Company is unable to make a definitive determination about the sources of the 3TGs contained in the majority of its products subject to inquiry by Rule 13­p1 for the period from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017 (the “Reporting Period”). However, with respect to a small minority of products subject to inquiry by Rule 13­p1 for the Reporting Period, the Company did receive information from some direct suppliers that leads the Company to believe that there is reason to believe that 3TGs contained in those certain products may have originated in the Democratic Republic of Congo or an adjoining country (collectively, the “Covered Countries”) or did not come from recycled or scrap sources.

Pursuant to the Public Statement issued by the SEC’s Division of Corporation Finance on April 7, 2017, we have only provided the disclosure required under the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of Item 1.01 of Form SD.
