Follows OECD guidelines for "downstream companies with no direct relationships to smelters or refiners". They do mention conducting due diligence to identify suppliers, but because there are no facilities identified, there is no follow-up on incident reports or otherwise.

 

"Under Armour performed due diligence from October 2015 through May 2016 to determine the impacted products and their suppliers, and source and chain of custody necessary to determine conflict minerals in the Company’s product offerings."

 

"As a downstream purchaser, Under Armour’s due diligence cannot provide absolute assurance regarding the source and chain of custody of any conflict minerals in its products. Under Armour relies, to a large extent, on the information collected from its suppliers, which may be inaccurate or incomplete."
