Section 1 - Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflicts Minerals Disclosure

This Form SD of Orion Energy Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) is filed pursuant to Rule 13p-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for the reporting period January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025.

The Company performed a reasonable country of origin inquiry, in which it surveyed suppliers regarding whether its necessary cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, wolframite, gold, and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (“conflict minerals”), have been sourced from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (“Covered Countries”). Most of the 2025 responses the Company received indicated that conflict minerals in the suppliers’ components and materials were either non-existent or did not originate from a Covered Country.

During its reasonable country of origin inquiry, the Company determined that a small portion of necessary conflict minerals used in its high efficiency lighting systems may have been sourced from a Covered Country. In conducting its due diligence, the Company implemented the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (Third Edition, 2016), an internationally recognized due diligence framework. The Conflict Minerals Report attached hereto as Exhibit 1.01 includes a discussion of the due diligence procedures performed and the disclosures required by the SEC.

A copy of the Company’s Conflict Minerals Report is provided as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD and is publicly available at www.oesx.com.
