Conflict Minerals Report

For The Calendar Year Ended December 31, 2018

This Conflict Minerals Report (this “Report”) of Broadcom Inc. for the calendar year ended December 31, 2018 (the “Reporting Period”) is filed in accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Rule”) and pursuant to the Company’s Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD (“Form SD”) for the Reporting Period filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Rule imposes certain reporting and disclosure obligations on SEC registrants for which cassiterite, columbite- tantalite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum and tungsten (“conflict minerals”) are necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured, or contracted to be manufactured, by the registrant.

On April 4, 2018, Broadcom Inc., a Delaware corporation, became the parent company of the Broadcom group and is the successor to Broadcom Limited for SEC reporting purposes. On April 5, 2018, Broadcom Limited converted to a private company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Singapore and changed its legal name from “Broadcom Limited” to “Broadcom Pte. Ltd.” References in this Report to “Broadcom,” “the Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Broadcom Inc. and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires.

Company and Product Overview

Broadcom is a global technology leader that designs, develops and supplies a broad range of semiconductor and infrastructure software solutions. Broadcom has a history of innovation and offers thousands of products that are used in end products such as enterprise and data center networking, home connectivity, set-top boxes, broadband access, telecommunication equipment, smartphones and base stations, data center servers and storage systems, factory automation, power generation and alternative energy systems, and electronic displays. Broadcom’s infrastructure software solutions enable customers to plan, develop, automate, manage and secure applications across mobile, cloud, distributed and mainframe platforms.

Design of Conflict Minerals Program

Broadcom’s due diligence framework with regards to conflict minerals, which is summarized below, conforms with the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains for Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas, and the Supplements on Tin, Tantalum and Tungsten and on Gold.

Step 1-    Establish strong company management systems

1

Step 2-    Identify and assess risks in the supply chain

Step 3-    Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks

Step 4-    Independent third-party audit of SOR’s due diligence practices

Step 5-    Report annually on supply chain due diligence

Description of Due Diligence Measures Performed

Results of Our Due Diligence Measures

Broadcom uses tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (“3TG”) in the design and manufacture of many of its products and is therefore a “downstream” company in the conflict minerals supply chain. Due to the nature of our supply chain, we do not typically have a direct relationship with 3TG SORs. Our manufacturing operations employ a wide variety of semiconductors, electromechanical components and raw materials that are also supplied by other downstream companies in the supply chain. Our due diligence process involves seeking data from our relevant suppliers, and these suppliers seeking similar information from their supply chain in order to identify the sources for the necessary conflict minerals. We rely on the good faith efforts of our supply chain to provide us with reasonable data. We also depend largely on information collected and provided by RMI obtained through their independent third-party audit programs. We achieved a response rate of 99% for our supply chain survey.

Many of our suppliers sourced 3TG from a variety of upstream sources and provided information to us on an aggregated, company-wide level. Due to the fungible nature of these materials, we understand that these suppliers were unable to trace the 3TG that they source into the products provided to any particular customers (including Broadcom). As a result, our list of SORs may contain more facilities than are actually used in our supply chain. In addition, our list of SORs may not include all the SORs in our supply chain as our suppliers were unable to identify the SORs of some of the conflict minerals.

We compare SORs declared by our suppliers against the list of facilities that are certified “conflict free” by the RMAP and obtain countries of origin information (when available) from RMI. We have identified 308 SORs determined to be legitimate processing facilities by the RMI, of which 260 have been validated as RMAP conformant, 5 are listed as “Active” as they are at various stages of the audit cycle in the RMAP, and the remaining 43 have no known participation in the RMAP. However, we were unable to ascertain the country of origin and/or chain of custody of all necessary conflict minerals because, for this reporting period, many SORs facilities had not yet received a “conflict free” designation.

As reported to us by our relevant suppliers, we have included a list of SORs determined to be legitimate processing facilities by the RMI and the locations of these facilities in Tables 1, 2 and 3.

As previously noted, because of the nature of our supply chain, we do not typically have any direct relationship with 3TG SORs. Therefore, as noted above, we contributed to the improvement of SOR diligence practices by working through our supply chain and through our membership with RMI.

Ongoing Improvement Efforts

For the next reporting period, we intend to continue taking steps to further mitigate the risk that conflict minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of our products finance or benefit armed groups in the DRC.

These steps include:

Set forth in the tables below are lists of the 308 SORs facilities identified by our suppliers as possibly being used to process their necessary conflict. RMAP status set forth in the lists below are based on information provided by RMI as of 13^th February 2019. Our efforts to determine the mine or location of origin of our necessary conflict minerals are set forth above in “Description of Due Diligence Measures Performed” and “Results of Our Due Diligence Measures”.
