Check the appropriate box to
indicate the rule pursuant to which this form is being filed, and provide the period to which the information in this form applies:
x Rule
13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.13p-1) for the reporting period from January 1 to December 31, 2019.
Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure
Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report
This Form SD is filed by Allied Healthcare Products, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (“Allied”, the “Company”, “we”, or “us”) for the year ended
December 31, 2019 to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Rule”). Certain terms in this
Form SD are defined in the Rule and our Conflict Minerals Report, filed herewith as Exhibit 1.01, and the reader is referred to
those sources for such definitions. We are relying on the Updated Statement on the Effect of the Court of Appeals Decision on the
Conflict Minerals Rule issued by the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
on April 7, 2017 (the “April 2017 Guidance”). As permitted under the April 2017 Guidance, this Form SD does not address
Item 1.01(c) of Form SD.
RCOI
We have determined that conflict minerals exist in at least
one component of at least one product that we manufacture or contract to manufacture in each of our core businesses. These components
contain conflict minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of these products. Therefore, in accordance with
the Rule and Form SD, we initiated a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) with our direct suppliers to determine
whether any conflict minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (collectively, the “Covered
Countries”) and/or may have been from recycled or scrap sources.
Our RCOI process employed a number of measures to determine
whether the necessary conflict minerals in our products originated in the Covered Countries and/or may have been from recycled
or scrap sources, including the following:
|
-
|
Consultation with the Company’s
engineering staff to help determine which components do not contain conflict minerals;
|
|
-
|
Creation of a comprehensive
supplier list;
|
|
-
|
Communication and engagement
with our suppliers;
|
|
-
|
Distribution to our suppliers
of a questionnaire based the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (“EICC”) and The Global e-Sustainability Initiative
(“GeSI”) Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“EICC/GeSI Form”);
|
|
-
|
Collection of responses
to our questionnaire from our suppliers, some of which are provided on the EICC/GeSI Form and some of which are provided on our
form;
|
|
-
|
Review of collected responses
to identify supplier risk level, as described further in our Conflict Minerals Report, determine country of origin and/or sourcing
from recycled or scrap sources and determine if due diligence is required; and
|
|
-
|
Follow-up communication
with suppliers to update forms if their responses did not meet our review requirements and to understand and mitigate risks related
to conflict minerals in their supply chains.
|
From over 27,000 parts reviewed by the Company, surveys returned
to the Company indicated that 136 parts use or contain conflict minerals originating from outside Covered Countries and 208 parts
use or contain conflict minerals originating within Covered Countries, but the conflict minerals originating in Covered Countries
were smelted at smelters which are compliant with Conflict Free Smelter Program protocols by the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative
(“CFSI”). Surveys received from vendors indicated that one part used by the Company uses or contains conflict minerals,
the source of which is unknown. The vendors of 12 parts either did not respond or could not determine whether such parts use or
contain conflict minerals. No surveys indicated that any conflict minerals necessary for the functionality of our products were
not conflict free under the CFSI protocols.
Pursuant to the April 2017 Guidance, we have provided only the
disclosure required under the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of Item 1.01 of Form SD.
Item 1.02 Exhibit
None.
Section 2 – Exhibits
Item 2.01 Exhibits
None.
