Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosures

ITEM 1.01

CONFLICT MINERALS DISCLOSURE AND REPORT

REASONABLE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INQUIRY

Determinations made.

Baker Hughes Company (“Baker Hughes,” “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us”), a Delaware corporation, determined that in calendar year 2023, we obtained conflict minerals necessary for the production of certain products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured for sale by the Company.

Description of inquiry.

The Company’s inquiry is described in this Specialized Disclosure Report, which includes our Conflict Minerals Report (the “Report”) attached to this Form SD as Exhibit 1.01.

Additional information on the Company’s conflict minerals compliance program can be found at the following web page: https://www.bakerhughes.com/conflict-minerals

Results of inquiry

As a result of better utilization of preferred suppliers and detailed evaluation of product-level spend information, in 2023 the Company decreased the number of suppliers we identified as possibly using conflict minerals in products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured for the Company. This focused approach resulted in better targeted communication and improved supplier response rate. We received information regarding conflict minerals in our supply chain from 596 relevant suppliers. Approximately 57% of the suppliers reported that they did not use conflict minerals in their products provided to the Company. Approximately 34% of the responding suppliers furnished relevant materials to the Company originating from the Democratic Republic of Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country (collectively, “DRC Region”). Approximately 9% of the responding suppliers furnished relevant materials to the Company that originated either outside of the DRC Region or from recycled or scrap sources. As a result of sanctions in Russia, certain Russian smelters are now deemed to be high-risk, and that resulted in an increase in the number of high-risk smelters compared to 2022. However, as a result of sourcing from our preferred suppliers, a detailed evaluation of product-level spend information and an increased number of product level reports from the suppliers, the Company was able to decrease the use of high-risk suppliers from 157 to 96 year-over-year. A table listing all originating countries and recycled or scrap sources for each Conflict Mineral is set forth as Paragraph 6 of the Report.
