Introduction
This Conflict Minerals Report (this “Report”) for Standard BioTools Inc. (“Standard BioTools” or “we” or “our”) covers the reporting period from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021 and is presented in accordance with Rule 13p-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Rule 13p-1”). This Report is filed as Exhibit 1.01 to our Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD (the “Form SD”). A copy of this Report and the Form SD are publicly available on our website at https://investors.fluidigm.com/financial-information/sec-filings. Information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website, does not constitute part of this Report and inclusion of our website address in this Report is an inactive textual reference only.
In 2010, the United States enacted the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Act”). Section 1502 of the Act relates to conflict minerals and requires companies subject to the Act to file a Form SD annually with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to disclose whether the minerals specified in Rule 13p-1 and their derivatives, limited to tungsten, tantalum, tin, and gold (referred to as the “3TG minerals”), used in their products benefited, directly or indirectly, armed groups in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and adjoining countries (collectively, the “Covered Countries”). This Report, which is an exhibit to our Form SD, describes the design and implementation of our conflict minerals due diligence measures undertaken, including a description of how these measures were designed to determine, to our knowledge, the source mines, countries of origin, and processing facilities for 3TG minerals contained in components used in our products.
Standard BioTools Background and Covered Products
Standard BioTools Inc., previously known as Fluidigm Corporation, is driven by a bold vision – unleashing tools to accelerate breakthroughs in human health. Standard BioTools has an established portfolio of essential, standardized next-generation technologies that help biomedical researchers develop medicines faster and better. As a leading solutions provider, we provide reliable and repeatable insights in health and disease using our proprietary mass cytometry and microfluidics technologies that help transform scientific discoveries into better patient outcomes. We work with leading academic, government, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, plant and animal research, and clinical laboratories worldwide, focusing on the most pressing needs in translational and clinical research, including oncology, immunology, and immunotherapy. We distribute our systems through our direct sales force and support organizations located in North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, and through distributors or sales agents in several European, Latin American, Middle Eastern, and Asia-Pacific countries. Our manufacturing operations are located in Singapore and Canada. Our facility in Singapore manufactures our integrated fluidic

1


circuits (IFCs) as well as our microfluidics instruments, which are assembled by our contract manufacturer located within our Singapore facility. Our mass cytometry instruments, assays and reagents are manufactured at our facility in Canada.
We have determined that one or more of the 3TG minerals (tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold) may be necessary to the functionality or production of certain products we manufactured, or contracted to manufacture, as applicable, during 2021, including our C1™, Juno™, Access Array™, Biomark™ HD, EP1™, Flow Conductor™ sample prep, Helios™, Hyperion™ Imaging, and AccuLift™ Laser Capture Microdissection systems. As a result, all of our marketed systems and IFCs are considered “covered products” for purposes of this Report.
Our supply chain with respect to the covered products is complex, and there are many third parties in the supply chain between the original source of the 3TG minerals and the manufacture of the covered products. We do not purchase raw ore or unrefined 3TG minerals directly and make no purchases in the Covered Countries. As a result and as described more fully below, we rely on our suppliers to provide information on the origin of the conflict minerals contained in our products.
Standard BioTools Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
In accordance with Rule 13p-1 and Form SD, we determined that one or more of the 3TG minerals may be necessary to the functionality or production of our systems and IFCs and that such 3TG minerals are incorporated into our products during the manufacturing process. Accordingly, we undertook a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”). This good faith RCOI was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the 3TG minerals incorporated into our products originated in the Covered Countries.
Our RCOI consisted principally of submitting the conflict minerals reporting template (the “RMI Template”) prepared by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”), formerly the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (CFSI), an initiative of the Responsible Business Alliance and Global e-Sustainability Initiative, to suppliers of components for our products that are considered necessary to the functionality or production of our products and for which any 3TG minerals or their derivatives may be included (“first tier suppliers”). We reviewed all responses for completeness, reasonableness, and consistency, and we followed up for corrections and clarifications as we determined appropriate.
Standard BioTools’s Due Diligence Process
Our due diligence measures were designed to conform, in all material respects, with the framework in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (the “OECD Framework”). The objectives of our diligence initiative were to determine, to the best of our ability, whether any of the 3TG minerals are incorporated into our products; whether any such 3TG minerals incorporated into our products were necessary for the functionality and/or production of our products; the source and chain of custody of the 3TG minerals necessary for the functionality and/or production of our products; and whether any such 3TG minerals originated in the Covered Countries. In the event that 3TG minerals from the Covered Countries which benefit armed groups are found in our supply chain, we will take appropriate actions in a timely manner to resolve the situation.
Due diligence measures that we implemented included, but were not limited, to the following:
1.Establishment of Internal Management Systems
a.Conflict Minerals Policy. In 2013, we adopted a written policy relating to the use of conflict minerals in our supply chain. We have communicated this written policy to each of our first tier suppliers. A copy of the Standard BioTools Conflict Minerals Policy is publicly available at https://investors.fluidigm.com/social-responsibility.
b.Internal Management to Support Supply Chain Due Diligence. Our legal department has been charged with the management of our conflict minerals program, working in collaboration with members from our operations team in Singapore, Canada, and the United States.
c.Controls and Transparency. As described above, we undertook an RCOI with respect to conflict minerals in our supply chain by providing the RMI Template to each of our first tier suppliers to gather information about their use of 3TG minerals, the smelters and refiners in their supply chain that are included in our products, and the

2


countries of origin for 3TG minerals used in our products. We reviewed all responses for completeness, reasonableness, and consistency. We followed up for corrections and clarifications as we determined appropriate.
d.Supplier Engagement. We continue to engage actively with our first tier suppliers to strengthen our relationship with them. We have communicated to our suppliers our commitment to source conflict minerals in a manner that does not, directly or indirectly, benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries. We will consider alternative arrangements for our supply needs if our suppliers are unable to cooperate in our due diligence efforts. In particular, as part of our supplier qualification process, we generally request conflict minerals information from each new supplier of potentially applicable products.
e.Grievance Mechanism. Our code of conduct includes procedures for reporting violations of our policies, including our Conflict Minerals Policy. We provide mechanisms for anonymous reporting of violations or concerns about the conduct of our business, including the implementation and enforcement of our Conflict Minerals Policy.
2.Identification and Assessment of Risks in the Supply Chain
As discussed above, we identified our first tier suppliers and relied on them to provide the necessary information about the use of 3TG minerals in the products we purchase and incorporate into the manufacture of our systems and IFCs, and the source of such 3TG minerals. Similarly, our first tier suppliers rely on information provided by their suppliers to provide information regarding the country of origin of 3TG minerals included in our products.
3.Designing and Implementing a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks
We have developed a formal risk management plan through which our conflict minerals program is managed and monitored. As part of this risk management plan, where applicable, we will review circumstances in which certain suppliers are unable to provide us with complete or reliable responses to the RMI Template including, without limitation, considering whether to continue such contract or relationship or find a replacement supplier.
4.Carrying Out Independent Third-Party Audit of Supply Chain Due Diligence at Identified Points in the Supply Chain
We do not have a direct relationship with any smelters or refiners in our supply chain. As a result, we do not and cannot conduct any audits directly. Instead, we support the development and implementation of independent third party audits of smelters such as the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) by encouraging our suppliers to purchase materials from audited, conflict-free smelters and determining whether the smelters that were used to process these minerals were validated as conflict-free by the RMAP.
5.Reporting on Supply Chain Due Diligence
We publicly filed the Form SD and this Report with the SEC. A copy of this Report and the Form SD are publicly available at https://investors.fluidigm.com/financial-information/sec-filings. This Report includes information about the RCOI methodology used by Standard BioTools, the design of our due diligence process in conformance with the OECD Framework, the list of known smelters and refiners utilized in our supply chain identified in our due diligence process, and a description of our products that incorporate 3TG minerals necessary to the functionality or production of such products.
Smelters and Refiners in Standard BioTools’s Supply Chain
We adopted RMI’s industry approach to trace back the origin of 3TG minerals by identifying smelters, refineries, or recyclers and scrap supplier sources. We have leveraged industry initiatives such as the RMAP, which is a voluntary initiative in which an independent third party audits smelters and refiners to determine if all of the minerals processed by the smelter or refiner originated from conflict free sources. Participation in the RMAP provides us with verified information about the sourcing activities of the smelters and refiners in our supply chain.
As discussed above, we submitted the RMI Template to our first tier suppliers. Most of the responses received from our first tier suppliers provided information at company/division levels, rather than specific product/part number levels. As a result, we were unable to determine whether or to what extent any of the 3TG minerals reported as used by these first tier suppliers

3


were contained specifically in components supplied to us. We also were unable to validate whether the smelters or refiners reported by such first tier suppliers are actually in our supply chain. Accordingly, based on information that was provided by our first tier suppliers or that was otherwise obtained through our due diligence process, we are unable to determine and describe all facilities used to process the 3TG minerals contained in our covered products.
Based on the information that was provided by our suppliers and otherwise obtained through the due diligence process, we believe that, to the extent reasonably determinable, the facilities that were used to process the 3TG minerals contained in the covered products included the smelters and refiners listed in Annex A attached hereto. This table excludes facilities that are not listed in the RMI Smelter Reference List as of May 25, 2022. An indication of “Conformant” in the far right column of the table indicates that the smelter or refinery successfully completed an assessment against the applicable RMAP standard or an equivalent cross-recognized assessment or is presently undergoing a re-audit to maintain its “conflict free” designation. An indication of “Active” in the far right column of the table indicates that the smelter or refinery has not yet received a “conflict free” designation, but is undergoing an audit process that will determine such status. An indication of “Unknown” in the far right column of the table indicates that the smelter or refinery was not included in the RMI “Conformant” or “Active” lists and thus the facility’s designation is undeterminable.
Because the RMI Smelter Reference List generally did not indicate individual countries of origin of the conflict minerals processed by smelters and refiners, we were not able to determine the countries of origin of the 3TG minerals processed by the listed smelters and refiners with greater specificity. Furthermore, as stated earlier, submission of these smelters by our first-tier suppliers does not guarantee that these smelters or refiners are present in Standard BioTools’s supply chain as our first tier suppliers were generally only able to provide company-level RMI Templates and were not able to provide product-level RMI Templates directly linking those smelters or refiners to such covered products. Therefore, based on our due diligence efforts, we do not have sufficient information to conclusively determine the countries of origin of the 3TG minerals contained in the covered products.
Additional Risk Factors
The statements above are based on the RCOI process and due diligence performed in good faith by Standard BioTools. These statements are based on the infrastructure and information available at the time. A number of factors could introduce errors or otherwise affect our 3TG mineral status. These factors include, but are not limited to, gaps in supplier data; gaps in smelter data; errors or omissions by suppliers; errors or omissions by smelters; all instances of 3TG minerals necessary to the functionality or manufacturing of our products not yet having been identified; gaps in supplier education and knowledge; timeliness of data; public information not discovered during a reasonable search; errors in public data; language barriers and translation; supplier and smelter unfamiliarity with the protocols for identifying and sourcing potential 3TG minerals; oversight or errors in conflict free smelter audits; Covered Countries sourced materials being declared secondary materials; companies going out of business in 2021; certification programs being not equally advanced for all industry segments and metals; and smuggling of 3TG minerals from the Covered Countries to other countries; and the effects of COVID-19 and similar pandemics.
Future Steps
We have communicated our expectations to our first tier suppliers regarding our commitment to sourcing minerals for our products in a manner that does not, directly or indirectly, finance or benefit armed groups in the DRC or adjoining countries. We expect to continue our engagement with our relevant suppliers over the next year to build their knowledge and capacity so they are able to provide us with more complete and accurate information on the source and chain of custody of the 3TG included in components and parts purchased by us and incorporated into our products. We also plan to continue to investigate other minerals of concern, including cobalt and mica, and other global regions of high risk.
