Conflict Minerals Report

For the year ended December 31, 2025

Introduction

This report for the period from January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025 (the “Reporting Period”) is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“the Rule”). The Rule was adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to implement reporting and disclosure requirements related to conflict minerals as directed by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants whose products that are manufactured or contracted to be manufactured contain conflict minerals which are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. Conflict Minerals are defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (“3TG”). These requirements apply to registrants whatever the geographic origin of the conflict minerals and whether or not they fund armed conflict.

Description of Products

Only some of Helios Technologies, Inc. products fall in scope of the Rule, as they may contain one or more of the 3TGs. For the Reporting Period, Helios identified the following products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured by it as those containing 3TGs:

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

To determine whether necessary 3TGs in products originated in Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, Helios Technologies, Inc. retained Assent Inc. (“Assent”), a third-party service provider, to review the supply chain and identify risks. The Company provided a list of suppliers and parts associated with the in-scope products to Assent for upload to the Assent Compliance Manager.

To trace materials, and demonstrate transparency in the supply chain, Helios Technologies, Inc. utilized the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) Version 6.5 or higher to conduct a survey of all in-scope suppliers.

During the supplier survey, the Company contacted suppliers via the Assent Compliance Manager, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform provided by Assent that enables users to complete and track supplier communications and allows suppliers to upload completed CMRTs directly to the platform for validation, assessment and management. The Assent Compliance Manager also provides functionality that meets The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (“OECD Guidance”) Guidance process expectations by evaluating the quality of each supplier response and assigning a health score based on the supplier’s declaration of process engagement. Additionally, the metrics provided in this report, as well as the step-by-step process for supplier engagement and upstream due diligence investigations, are managed through this platform.

Via the Assent Compliance Manager and Assent team, the Company requested that all suppliers complete and submit a CMRT. Training and education materials regarding conflict minerals reporting and CMRT completion were provided to suppliers as part of this process. Assent monitored and tracked all communications in the Assent Compliance Manager for future reporting and transparency. Helios Technologies, Inc. directly contacted suppliers that were unresponsive to Assent’s communications during the diligence process and requested these suppliers complete the CMRT and submit it to Assent.

The Company’s program continues to include automated data validation on all submitted CMRTs. The goal of data validation is to increase the accuracy of submissions and identify any contradictory answers in the CMRT. This data validation is based on questions within the declaration tab of the CMRT, which helps identify areas that require further classification or risk assessment. The results of this data validation contribute to the program’s health assessment and are shared with the suppliers to ensure they understand areas that require clarification or improvement.

All submitted declaration forms are accepted so that data is retained, but they are classified as valid or invalid based on a set criteria of validation errors (see appendix C for CMRT validation criteria). Suppliers are contacted regarding invalid forms and are encouraged to correct validated errors to resubmit a valid form. Suppliers are provided with guidance on how to correct these validation errors in the form of feedback to their CMRT submission, training courses, and direct engagement help through Assent’s multilingual Supplier Experience team. Since some suppliers may remain unresponsive to feedback, Helios Technologies, Inc. tracks program gaps to account for future improvement opportunities.

Due Diligence

Design of Due Diligence

Helios has designed its due diligence framework for the Reporting Period to conform in material respects with OECD Guidance and the related Supplements for 3TG. The program aligns with the five steps for due diligence that are described

by the OECD Guidance, and the Company continues to evaluate market expectations for data collection and reporting to achieve continuous improvement opportunities.

Due diligence requires the Company’s necessary reliance on data provided by direct suppliers and third-party audit programs. There is a risk of incomplete or inaccurate data as the process cannot be fully owned by the Company. However, through active risk identification and risk assessment, as well as continued outreach and process validation, risk gaps can be mitigated. This aligns with industry standards and market expectations for downstream companies’ due diligence.

Due Diligence Performed

Internal Compliance Team

Helios established a cross-functional Conflict Minerals Compliance Team consisting of members from supply chain, finance, legal & compliance, as well as operations, overseen by our General Counsel. The Conflict Minerals Compliance Team is responsible for implementing the conflict minerals compliance strategy and briefing senior management about the results of these due diligence efforts.

The Company also uses a third-party service provider, Assent, to assist with evaluating supply chain information regarding 3TGs, identifying potential risks, and developing and implementing additional due diligence steps that the Company will undertake with suppliers and/or respective stakeholders in regard to conflict minerals. The Company leverages Assent’s Managed Services to work with dedicated program specialists who support Helios Technologies’ conflict minerals program. The Company communicates regularly with the Assent team to receive updates on program status. Each member of Assent’s Customer Success team is trained in conflict minerals compliance and understands the intricacies of reporting templates such as CMRT and CMRs, as well as Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act.

Control Systems

The Company expects all suppliers to have policies and procedures in place to ensure that 3TGs used in the production of the products sold to Helios Technologies, Inc. are “conflict free” or “responsibly sourced.” This means that the products should not contain minerals (3TGs) sourced from areas that have been identified to be in the presence of widespread human rights abuses and violations of law either directly or indirectly. The Company expects direct suppliers to provide information on the origin of the 3TGs contained in components and materials supplied, including sources of 3TGs that are supplied to them from lower-tier suppliers.

Helios Technologies, Inc’s Supplier Code of Conduct applies to all direct suppliers and outlines certain expected behaviors and practices. This code of conduct is based on industry and internationally accepted principles such as the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights and the OECD Due Diligence Guidance. The Supplier Code of Conduct is provided to all direct suppliers and is available here https://www.heliostechnologies.com/investors/corporate-governance/governance-documents. If a supplier does not meet the Company’s requirements, the relationship with this supplier will be evaluated.

Supplier Engagement

Helios Technologies, Inc. has a strong relationship with Tier 1 direct suppliers. As an extremely important part of the supply chain, Helios Technologies, Inc. has leveraged processes and educational opportunities in order to ensure non-English speaking suppliers have access to a free platform to upload their CMRTs, help desk support, and other multilingual resources. Helios Technologies, Inc. suppliers are able to leverage Assent’s team of supplier support specialists to ensure they receive appropriate support and understand how to properly complete a CMRT. Suppliers are provided guidance in their native language, if needed.

The Company engages with suppliers directly to request a valid (free of validated errors) CMRT for the products that they supply to the Company. With respect to the OECD requirement to strengthen engagement with suppliers, the Company has developed an internal procedure that includes supplier risk identification process that then leads to further steps of supplier engagement in the form of escalations, such as in-person meetings and/or corrective actions. Feedback from this engagement process has allowed the Company to oversee improvements in supplier responses and supplier compliance for this initiative.

Additionally, the Company’s Conflict Minerals Policy is included in supplier contracts, requiring new suppliers to read and accept the policy as a requirement of doing business with Helios Technologies, Inc. When entering into or renewing supplier contracts, a clause is added that requires suppliers to provide information about the source of 3TGs and smelters.

The Company continues to place a strong emphasis on supplier education and training. To accomplish this, Assent’s online resources are leveraged, and all in-scope suppliers have been provided with access to their library of conflict minerals training and support resources. Also, Assent’s automated feedback process that notifies suppliers of risks associated with their CMRT submission serves to educate suppliers of certain conflict minerals’ risks. Helios Technologies, Inc. believes that the combination of the Supplier Code of Conduct, Conflict Minerals Policy, and direct engagement with suppliers for conflict minerals training and support constitute a strong supplier engagement program.

Grievance Mechanisms

The Company established multiple longstanding grievance mechanisms whereby employees and suppliers can report violations of Helios Technologies, Inc’s policies, including conflict minerals. Suppliers and others outside of Helios Technologies, Inc. may contact the Conflict Minerals Team, including to report grievances, via a dedicated email address (heliostechnologies@ethicspoint.com) and in other communications with suppliers. Any reports about potential violations are reported to the Conflict Minerals Team.

Violations or grievances at the industry level can be reported to the Responsible Minerals Initiative (“RMI”) directly as well. This can be done at http://www.responsiblemineralsinitiative.org/responsible-minerals-assurance-process/grievance-mechanism/.

Maintain Records

The Company has adopted a policy to retain relevant documentation for a period of five years. Through Assent, a document retention policy to retain conflict minerals related documents, including supplier responses to CMRTs and the sources identified within each reporting period, has been implemented. The Company stores all of the information and findings from this process in a database that can be audited by internal or external parties.

Supplier Risk Evaluation

Risks associated with Tier 1 suppliers’ due diligence processes were assessed by their declaration responses on a CMRT, which the Assent Compliance Manager identifies automatically based on established criteria. These risks are addressed by Assent staff and members of the Company’s internal Conflict Minerals Team, who engage with suppliers to gather pertinent data and ask for corrective actions if needed, performing an overall assessment of the supplier’s conformity status, which is referred to as “conflict minerals status.”

Risks at the supplier level may include non-responsive suppliers or incomplete CMRTs. In cases where a company-level CMRT (such as when a company declares there are no 3TGs in any of its products) is submitted, Helios Technologies, Inc. is unable to determine if all of the specified smelters/refiners were used for 3TGs in the products supplied to the Company.

Assent’s supplier risk assessment flags suppliers’ risk as high, medium, or low and identifies problematic suppliers in a company’s supply chain. The risk assessment is derived from the smelter validation process, which establishes risk at the smelter level via an analysis that considers multiple conflict minerals factors.

Suppliers are also evaluated on program strength, which assists in making key risk mitigation decisions as the program progresses. The criteria used to evaluate the strength of the program is based on certain questions in the CMRT related to the suppliers’ conflict minerals practices and policies.

Smelter/Refiners Risk Evaluation

Other supply chain risks were identified by assessing the due diligence practices and audit status of smelters/refiners identified in the supply chain by upstream suppliers that listed mineral processing facilities on their CMRT declarations. Assent’s smelter

validation program compared listed facilities with the list of smelters/refiners consolidated by the RMI to ensure that the facilities met the recognized definition of a 3TGs processing facility that was operational during the 2025 calendar year.

Assent determined if the smelter had been audited against a standard in conformance with the OECD Guidance, such as the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP). Smelters that are conformant to RMAP audit standards are considered to have their sourcing validated as “conflict free or responsibly sourced.” In cases where the smelter/refiner’s due diligence practices have not been audited against the RMAP standard or they are considered non-conformant by RMAP, further due diligence steps are followed to notify suppliers reporting these facilities. Smelters/refiners are actively monitored to proactively identify other risks pertaining to conflict minerals.

Each facility that meets the definition of a smelter or refiner of a 3TG mineral is assessed according to red-flag indicators defined in the OECD Guidance. Assent uses numerous factors to determine the level of risk that each smelter poses to the supply chain by identifying red flags. These factors include:

Risk mitigation activities are initiated whenever a supplier’s CMRT reports concerns. Through Assent, suppliers with submissions that included any smelters of concern were immediately provided with feedback instructing suppliers to take their own independent risk mitigation actions. Examples include the submission of a product specific CMRT to better identify the connection to products that they supply to Helios Technologies, Inc. Additional escalation may have been necessary to address any continued sourcing from these smelters of concern. Suppliers are given clear performance objectives within reasonable timeframes with the ultimate goal of progressive elimination of these smelters of concern from the supply chain.

In addition, suppliers are guided to the educational materials on mitigating the risks identified through the data collection process.

Together with Assent, Helios Technologies, Inc. developed processes to assess and respond to the risks identified in the supply chain. Helios Technologies, Inc. has a risk management plan, through which the conflict minerals program is implemented, managed, and monitored. To ensure the plan is effective, escalations are sent to non-responsive suppliers to outline the importance of a response via CMRTs and to outline the required cooperation for compliance to the conflict minerals rules and the Company’s expectations.

Feedback on supplier submissions is given directly to suppliers, and educational resources are provided to assist suppliers in corrective action methods or to improve their internal programs. In cases where suppliers have continuously been non-responsive or are not committed to corrective action plans, the Company will assess if replacing that supplier is feasible. The results of the program and risk assessment are shared with the Conflict Minerals Team and the Helios Technologies, Inc’s Leadership Team to ensure transparency within the Company.

Helios Technologies, Inc. does not have a direct relationship with any 3TG smelters/refiners and does not perform or direct audits of these entities within the supply chain. Instead, the Company relies on third-party audits of smelters/refiners (industry recognized audit/assessment programs). As an example, RMAP uses independent private-sector auditors, and audits the source, including the mines of origin, and the chain of custody of the conflict minerals used by smelters/refiners that agree to participate in the program.

Assent directly engages smelters/refiners that are not currently enrolled in an industry recognized audit/assessment program to encourage their participation and for those smelters/refiners already conformant to the corresponding program’s standards, Assent thanks them for their efforts on behalf of its compliance partners. Helios Technologies, Inc. is a signatory of these communications in accordance with the requirements of downstream companies detailed in the OECD Guidance.

Helios Technologies, Inc. has published the Form SD for the year ended December 31, 2025. This report is available on the Investor Relations section of the Company’s website. Information found on or accessed through this website is not considered part of this report and is not incorporated by reference herein. Helios Technologies, Inc. has also publicly filed a Form SD and this report with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

This year, the Company has also considered impacts from the EU Conflict Minerals Regulation when disclosing details with regards to due diligence efforts. The Company will continue to expand efforts both for transparency through the data collection process and risk evaluation, as well as the disclosure of efforts through the form of public report.

Due Diligence Results

Supply Chain Outreach Results

Supply chain outreach is required to identify the upstream sources of origin of tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold. Following the industry standard process, CMRTs are sent to and requested from Tier 1 suppliers, who are expected to follow this process until the smelter and refiner sources are identified. The following is the result of the outreach conducted by Helios Technologies, Inc. for the 2025 reporting year.

Supply Chain Outreach Metrics

The Company continues to focus on increasing supplier participation through enhanced supplier engagement, escalation procedures, and training initiatives.

Upstream Data Transparency

Appendix A includes all smelters/refiners that suppliers listed in completed CMRTs that met the recognized definition of a 3TGs processing facility and were operational during the 2025 calendar year. As is a common practice when requests are sent upstream in the supply chain, those who purchase materials from smelters may not be able to discern exactly which company’s product lines the materials may end up in. As a result, those providing the smelters/refiners have the practice to list all smelters/refiners they may purchase from within the reporting period. Therefore, the smelters/refiners (as sources) listed in Appendix A are likely to be more comprehensive than the list of smelters/refiners which actually processed the 3TGs contained in the Company’s products.

Although the potential for over-reporting is understood, Helios Technologies, Inc. has taken measures to validate all smelter/refiner data against validated audit programs and databases intended to verify the material types and mine sources of origin. From the gathered responses, 35 smelters that potentially posed a high risk due to the presence of some red flag indicators were identified.

Suppliers that identified these specific smelters of concern on their CMRT were contacted in accordance with the OECD Guidance, as stipulated in the previous sections.

Country of Origin

Appendix B includes an aggregated list of countries of origin from which the reported facilities collectively source 3TGs, based on reasonable identification of country-of-origin data obtained via Assent’s supply chain database (or other Reasonable Country of Origin (“RCOI”) data, in the scenario Helios Technologies, Inc. decides to use alternative data sources). As mentioned in the above section, it is understood that overreporting might occur which could result in Appendix B having more countries than those strictly relevant to the Company’s products.

Steps to Be Taken to Mitigate Risk

For the 2026 Reporting year, Helios Technologies, Inc. intends to take the following steps to improve the due diligence conducted to further mitigate any risk that the necessary 3TGs in the Company’s products could originate from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas:
