Section 1 - Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

QIAGEN N.V. ("QIAGEN," the "Company," or "we" or "us") has evaluated its product offerings for the calendar year ended December 31, 2021 and determined that certain “conflict minerals”, as defined by paragraph (d)(3) of Item 1.01 of Form SD ("Conflict Minerals"), are necessary to the functionality or production of certain instrumentation products we manufacture or contract to manufacture. As a result, we conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) with the suppliers of certain components that could reasonably contain Conflict Minerals used in these products. The Company conducted its RCOI in good faith and believes that its inquiry was reasonably designed to determine whether any of the Conflict Minerals originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or any adjoining country (the “DRC”) or were from recycled or scrap sources. In conducting this inquiry, we relied on the direct suppliers’ responses about the source of Conflict Minerals contained in the components supplied to us. These direct suppliers are similarly reliant upon information provided by their suppliers.

Based on the RCOI, we have determined that it is necessary to file a Conflict Mineral Report, which is filed as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD.

This Form SD and the determination of the conflict minerals status of our products is also posted on our website: https://corporate.qiagen.com/English/investor-relations/financial-reports-and-sec-filings/other-reports/default.aspx.

The Conflict Minerals Report required by Item 1.01 is filed as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD.
