The Company procures various raw materials, including high temperature alloy sheet metal, castings, forgings, pre-plated metals, and electrical components from multiple vendors. These materials are generally available from several sources in sufficient quantities to meet current needs. The Company complies with SEC regulations under the Dodd-Frank Act concerning conflict minerals (tantalum, tin, gold, tungsten). In 2025, it was unable to determine the country of origin for some conflict minerals but has no knowledge of any originating from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or adjoining countries. The Company is reviewing its 2025 supply chain and plans to file its 2025 Form SD with the SEC in May 2026. Additionally, it monitors global environmental, health, and safety regulations, with particular attention to EU and China restrictions on hazardous substances and waste electrical and electronic equipment directives.
