Garmin Ltd.
Conflict Minerals Report
For the Year Ended December 31, 2025
The RMI is an industry-wide initiative to develop control systems regarding smelters and refiners through independently validated audits under the RMI's Responsible Minerals Assurance Process ("RMAP"). The RMI's RMAP uses an independent third-party assessment of smelter/refiner management systems and sourcing practices to validate conformance with RMAP standards. These RMAP standards are designed to meet the requirements of, among other things, the OECD Guidance (as described below under 'Due Diligence'). The RMI publishes online a list of smelters and refiners that meet the standards of the RMAP assessment.
In addition, the RMI developed the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the "CMRT") to standardize the collection and transfer of information through the supply chain regarding mineral country of origin and the identity of smelters and refiners being utilized.
Garmin utilizes Claigan Environmental Inc. (“Claigan”) for executing the Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI) and smelter due diligence process.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
Step 1 of the OECD Guidance: Establish Strong Company Management Systems
Garmin adopted a Conflict Minerals Policy (the "Policy"), which is publicly available on our website at www.garmin.com/conflictminerals. As stated in the Policy, Garmin expects each of its suppliers to do all of the following:
(a)Adopt a policy of responsible sourcing of minerals and pass this requirement through its supply chain;
(b)Implement due diligence processes and mitigation plans to support that policy;
(c)Train and instruct applicable employees regarding responsible sourcing policies, due diligence processes and mitigation plans;
(d)Comply with our Supplier Code of Conduct (www.garmin.com/suppliercodeofconduct) and Supplier Expectations;
(e)Source materials from socially responsible suppliers; and
(f)Complete and return to us the CMRT in a timely manner and provide us all other information we may request regarding the sourcing of minerals in products supplied to Garmin.
Garmin’s Conflict Minerals Policy sets forth a grievance mechanism for concerns and violations of the Policy to be reported to Garmin Ltd.’s Board of Directors through Garmin's chief compliance officer.
Garmin also established a steering committee comprised of senior executive officers to oversee Garmin’s conflict minerals program. Garmin established a multi-disciplinary working group of Garmin employees to develop and implement Garmin’s conflict minerals program under the oversight of the steering committee.

Step 2 of the OECD Guidance: Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain
In 2025, Garmin identified 809 suppliers and manufacturers that provide products to Garmin that contain or might reasonably be expected to contain one or more of the Covered Minerals. Garmin engaged Claigan to assist in the collection of data from those suppliers and manufacturers. Through Claigan, Garmin informed suppliers and manufacturers about the SEC Rule and requested that recipients complete and submit a CMRT, including all smelter/refiner information for any of the Covered Minerals contained in their products.
Garmin determined that it had reason to believe that Covered Minerals included in its products may have originated in the Democratic Republic of Congo or an adjoining country (each, a "Covered Country") and are not from recycled or scrap sources. Therefore, Garmin undertook due diligence measures on the source and chain of custody of Covered Minerals included in its products, as described below.
Due Diligence
Design of Due Diligence
Garmin designed its due diligence measures in conformance with the due diligence related steps of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, as further set forth in the specific guidance for downstream companies contained in the supplements on tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (the "OECD Guidance"). Garmin's actions with respect to Step 1 ('Establish Strong Company Management Systems') and Step 2 ('Identify and Assess Risk in the Supply Chain') of the OECD Guidance are described above.
Due Diligence Measures Performed
Step 3 of the OECD Guidance: Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks
In 2025, CMRTs submitted by suppliers and manufacturers were reviewed using industry-standard acceptance criteria selected by Claigan. CMRTs that satisfied the acceptance criteria were then compared against the RMI's published list of smelters and refiners that meet the standards of the RMAP assessment.
Garmin and Claigan have procedures to follow-up with suppliers who submitted a CMRT that did not satisfy Garmin's expectations and the applicable acceptance criteria. In addition, Garmin and Claigan have procedures for following up and escalating with suppliers and manufacturers who do not submit a completed CMRT by our response deadline. Suppliers and manufacturers were informed that a failure to respond adequately and within established deadlines could adversely affect their supplier rating and could result in corrective action.

Step 4 of the OECD Guidance: Support the Development and Implementation of Independent Third-Party Audits
As stated above, Garmin supports an industry-wide initiative to perform independent third-party audits of the due diligence and procurement activities of smelters and refiners through Garmin’s membership and participation during 2025 in the RMI.
Step 5 of the OECD Guidance: Report Annually on Supply Chain Due Diligence
As required under the SEC Rule, Garmin files annually with the SEC its Conflict Minerals Report on Form SD. Garmin also publishes annually its Conflict Minerals Report on its website at www.garmin.com/sustainability/reports-policies. The content of any website referenced in this Report is not incorporated by reference into this Report.
Garmin believes that our membership and participation in the RMI during 2025, our requests of suppliers to complete and submit the CMRT, our due diligence measures described above, and the policies and expectations set forth in our Conflict Minerals Policy, Supplier Code of Conduct and supplier contracts constitute the most reasonable efforts Garmin can undertake to determine the mine or location of origin of Covered Minerals in our supply chain.
