Section 1 - Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Radius Recycling, Inc. (the “Company”) is one of the nation’s largest recyclers of ferrous and nonferrous scrap metal, a leading recycler of used and salvaged vehicles, and a manufacturer of finished steel products.

This Form SD disclosure is presented to comply with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Rule 13p-1”). Pursuant to Rule 13p-1, the Company undertook to determine whether the products it manufactured or contracted to manufacture during the year ended December 31, 2024 contained conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of such products. “Conflict minerals” are defined as columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin, and tungsten (“3TG”).

The Company evaluated its products to determine which of its products may contain 3TG. Based on this review, the Company determined that the post-industrial and post-consumer scrap that it processes and sells may contain 3TG. The Company conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry based on a review of its business operations to determine whether any of the 3TG contained in its products originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Angola, Burundi, Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia (together, the “Covered Countries”) or are from recycled or scrap sources.

Based on the reasonable country of origin inquiry described above, the Company has in good faith concluded that any 3TG that may be included in its products for the period covered by this report came from recycled or scrap sources, not from newly-mined sources, and therefore are considered “DRC conflict free”.

In accordance with the requirements under Rule 13p-1, the above disclosure is also available on the Company’s website at www.radiusrecycling.com/company/about-radius-recycling/culture.
