## Exhibit 1.01

**EXHIBIT 1.01**

**Avanos Medical, Inc.**

**Conflict Minerals Report**

**For the Year Ended December 31, 2024**

**I.Introduction**

This Conflict Minerals Report (this "Report") by Avanos Medical, Inc. is for the period from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024 (the "Reporting Period"). Unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms "Avanos," "Company," "we," "us," and "our" mean Avanos Medical, Inc. and its consolidated and combined subsidiaries.

This Report is intended to comply with Rule 13p-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Rule"). The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on public companies that manufacture or contract to manufacture products containing conflict minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of their products. Form SD defines "conflict minerals" as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite and their derivatives, which are currently limited to tin, tantalum and tungsten. We identified tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold ("3TGs") that are necessary to the functionality or production of certain products that we manufactured or contracted to manufacture during the Reporting Period.

As described in this report, Avanos has reason to believe that some of the 3TGs present in its supply chain may have originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the "DRC") or an adjoining country (collectively, "Covered Countries"). Therefore, we performed a reasonable country of origin inquiry (the "RCOI") to determine whether any of the 3TGs in our products originated from the Covered Countries or were from recycled or scrap sources. Based on the RCOI, we determined that we may have some suppliers that sourced 3TGs from the Covered Countries, and we proceeded to conduct due diligence on our supplier base. The results of our due diligence are discussed below.

**II.Company Overview**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***A.Our Business***

Avanos is a medical technology company focused on delivering clinically superior medical device solutions that will help patients get back to the things that matter. Avanos is committed to addressing some of today's most important healthcare needs, including providing a vital lifeline for nutrition to patients from hospital to home, and reducing the use of opioids while helping patients move from surgery to recovery. Avanos develops, manufactures and markets its recognized brands globally and hold leading market positions in multiple categories across our portfolio.

The address of Avanos' principal executive office is 5405 Windward Parkway, Suite 100 South, Alpharetta, Georgia 30004, and our telephone number is (844) 428-2667.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***B.Business Segment***

We conduct our business in two operating and reportable segments that provide our medical device products to healthcare providers and patients globally with manufacturing facilities in the United States and Mexico. We provide a portfolio of innovative product offerings within our Specialty Nutrition Systems and Pain Management and Recovery segments to improve patient outcomes and reduce the cost of care.

*Specialty Nutrition Systems* is a portfolio of products including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Enteral feeding, which includes products such as our MIC-KEY enteral feeding tubes and Corpak patient feeding solutions. Enteral feeding accounted for 42% of our consolidated net sales in the year ended December 31, 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Neonate solutions feeding products comprised of our NeoMed neonatal and pediatric feeding solutions. Neonate solutions accounted for 16% of our consolidated net sales in the year ended December 31, 2024.

*Pain Management and Recovery* is a portfolio of products including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Surgical pain and recovery products such as ON-Q and ambIT surgical pain pumps and Game Ready cold and compression therapy systems. The surgical pain and recovery product category accounted for 18% of our consolidated net sales in the year ended December 31, 2024.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Radiofrequency Ablation ("RFA") solutions, which provide minimally invasive pain relief therapies, such as our COOLIEF pain therapy and our Trident and ESENTEC RFA products used to treat chronic pain conditions. Our interventional pain product category accounted for 24% of our consolidated net sales in the year ended December 31, 2024.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***C.Our Products***

For the Reporting Period, as applicable, we conducted an analysis of our Specialty Nutrition Systems and Pain Management and Recovery products to determine which, if any, were likely to contain 3TGs. The analysis identified that 3TGs were necessary to the functionality or production of certain products that we manufactured or contracted to manufacture during the Reporting Period. This was the case especially for the electrical components of such products.

**III.Description of Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry ("RCOI")**

We began our scoping process by developing a list of our suppliers that provide us with products that may contain one or more of the 3TGs. We then populated the list with contact information and provided it to our third-party service provider (the "Service Provider"). The supplier list was then uploaded to our Service Provider's software tool that allows us to store and manage supplier requests and documentation.

Our Service Provider then conducted the supplier survey portion of the RCOI utilizing the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the "CMRT") developed by the Responsible Business Alliance and The Global e-Sustainability Initiative. The CMRT was developed to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding smelters that provide material to a company's supply chain. It includes questions regarding a direct supplier's conflict minerals policy, due diligence process, and supply chain, including such supply chain information as the names and locations of smelters and refiners.

As part of the supplier survey, suppliers were asked to complete the CMRT. All communications were tracked and monitored in the Service Provider's software tool. Non-responsive suppliers were contacted a minimum of 3 times. Any suppliers that continued to be non-responsive were advanced to an escalation phase and further contacted on an individual basis.

To ensure that our suppliers understood our expectations regarding the sourcing of 3TGs, we and our Service Provider offered training to them though webinars, videos, documents, and one-on-one discussions. The offering included our Service Provider's Learning Management System, which allowed access to our Service Provider's Conflict Minerals training course. This training was tracked based on completion. All suppliers were encouraged to complete all the modules in the course.

The RCOI also included automated data validation on all submitted CMRTs. The goal of data validation is to increase the accuracy of submissions. All submitted CMRTs were classified as valid or invalid. All suppliers who submitted CMRTs that were classified as invalid were contacted to address items such as incomplete data, missing smelter information, or inconsistent answers. All of these communications were monitored and tracked in our Service Provider's software system. As of May 26, 2025, there were only 4 invalid submission that had not been corrected by the supplier.

Based on the RCOI, we determined that we may have some suppliers that sourced 3TGs from the Covered Countries; therefore, in an effort to locate mines with the greatest possible specificity, we conducted due diligence on our supplier base.

**IV.Due Diligence**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***A.Design of Due Diligence***

We designed our due diligence procedures to conform, in all material respects, with the due diligence framework presented by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") in the publication *OECD (2013) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas: Second Edition,* and the related *Supplements* for tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold (the "Guidance").

Avanos' conflict minerals due diligence process includes the five steps described in the *Guidance*, namely: (1) establishing strong company management systems, (2) identifying and assessing risks in our supply chain, (3) designing and implementing a strategy to respond to identified risks, (4) utilizing independent third-party audits, and (5) publicly reporting on our supply chain due diligence. A summary of our due diligence measures is outlined below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***B.Performance of Due Diligence***

*<u>Step 1</u>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Establishing Strong Company Management Systems*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*a.Internal Team*

We organized a Conflict Minerals Committee comprised of individuals in management positions across multiple departments, namely Legal, Procurement, and Finance. The Committee leads our conflict minerals compliance effort and is responsible for implementing our conflict minerals compliance strategy and for overseeing the program.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*b.Control Systems*

We have applicable policies and statements such as a Code of Conduct that outlines expected behaviors for all Avanos employees, a Supplier Social Compliance Standard that outlines expected behaviors for all Avanos vendors, and a Conflict

------

Minerals Policy Statement (the "Statement"). All three items are available on our website. The Statement, in particular, can be found in the Investor Relations section of our website, under Corporate Governance, at https://avanos.investorroom.com.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*c.Supplier Engagement*

We utilized our Service Provider's software reporting tool, and the CMRT to collect Conflict Minerals declarations from our supply base. The software tool allowed us to assist our suppliers in understanding our expectations and requirements and increase the rate of responses we received from our suppliers to our survey requests. We also communicated with relevant suppliers our expectation that they assist us in complying with our efforts related to our conflict minerals program. This includes obtaining information from them to support the chain of custody of the 3TGs identified in our products.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*d.Grievance Mechanisms*

We have several mechanisms that allow people to alert Company management about any concerns they may have about our compliance or ethics. Our Code of Conduct sets out ways to report concerns, including a Code of Conduct Hotline and Online Reporting tool, which both allow reports, in any language, to be made confidentially and anonymously at the election of the person making the report. We also have made publicly available on our website policies for communicating with our Board of Directors and with our compliance-oversight Committees of the Board, namely the Audit Committee and the Compliance Committee. These mechanisms are available to people who may be concerned about compliance with our conflict minerals program or with any other compliance matter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*e.Record Maintenance*

We maintain a company-wide document retention policy. The policy extends to the documents accumulated in performing our due diligence for this Report and requires that the documents be retained for a period of ten years. In addition, our Service Provider stores all of the information and findings from this process in a database that can be audited by internal or external parties.

*<u>Step 2</u>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Identify and Assess Risks in the Supply Chain*

Due to the complexity of our products and supply chain, it is difficult for us to identify indirect suppliers. We have relied on responses from our direct suppliers to provide us with information about the source of conflict minerals contained in the parts and components they supply to us. Similarly, our direct suppliers also rely on information provided to them by their suppliers. This chain of information creates a level of uncertainty and risk about the accuracy of the information. We will continue to monitor, adapt, and modify our due diligence practices to conform to recognized industry best practices.

In accordance with the *Guidance*, it is important to understand risk levels associated with conflict minerals in the supply chain. Each facility that meets the Responsible Minerals Initiative ("RMI") definition of a smelter or refiner of a 3TG mineral is assigned a risk of high, medium or low based on 5 scoring criteria, namely: (1) geographic proximity to the DRC and Covered Countries; (2) known mineral source country of origin; (3) responsible Minerals Assurance Process audit status; (4) credible evidence of unethical or conflict sourcing; and (5) peer assessments conducted by credible third-party sources.

Additionally, we evaluated suppliers on their conflict minerals program strength. Many companies continue to develop their programs and still provide an answer of "unknown" in response to our survey questions. We used the following criteria to evaluate the strength of their programs, with the capital letters, below, corresponding to the ones in the CMRT declaration tab:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. Have you established a conflict minerals sourcing policy?

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;E. Have you implemented due diligence measures for conflict-free sourcing?

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;G. Do you review due diligence information received from your suppliers against your company's expectations?

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;H. Does your review process include corrective action management?

When suppliers meet or exceed those criteria (Yes to at least A, E, G, H), they are deemed to have a strong program. When suppliers do not meet those criteria, they are deemed to have a weak program.

Our identification and risk assessment process also involves: (1) seeking information about 3TG smelters and refiners in our supply chain by requesting that our suppliers complete the CMRT, (2) verifying those smelters and refiners with RMI lists, (3) conducting the due diligence review, and (4) obtaining additional documentation and verification, as applicable. We believe that the inquiries and analysis described above represent a reasonable effort to determine the mines or locations of origin of the 3TGs in our Covered Products.

*<u>Step 3</u>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks*

Our Supplier Social Compliance Standards and Conflict Minerals Policy Statement sets out our expectations for our suppliers. If these expectations are not met, the business relationship between us and the supplier will be evaluated. For example, if we find that we source 3TGs that directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries, we will

------

encourage the applicable supplier to establish an alternative source of the minerals that does not support such conflict. If an alternative source cannot be found or the supplier chooses not to respond to this risk, we will assess whether or not we can replace the supplier. We have found no instance to date where we believed it was necessary to implement such risk mitigation efforts.

*<u>Step 4</u>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Utilize Independent Third-Party Audits*

We do not have a direct relationship with smelters and refiners ("SORs") and do not perform or direct audits of these entities. Instead, we rely on third party assurances and certifications such as from the RMI's Responsible Minerals Assurance Process.

*<u>Step 5</u>.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Publicly Report on Supply Chain Due Diligence*

This Report, which constitutes our annual report on our due diligence efforts, is available on our website in the Investors section, under Financial Information, at https://avanos.investorroom.com. This Report also is filed with the SEC.

**V.Results of Due Diligence**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***A.Survey Results***

As described above, we surveyed our supply chain and reviewed the responses to determine whether further engagement with our suppliers was required. The determination to further engage with them was based on criteria such as untimely responses, incomplete responses, and inconsistencies within the data reported. Suppliers who provided a CMRT were asked to submit SOR information. The results are discussed in the Smelters and Refiners section below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***B.Efforts to Determine Mine or Location of Origin***

Because we do not have relationships with the smelters and refiners, we relied on requests to our suppliers that they complete the RMI template. We believe that process suffices as a good faith effort to determine the identity of the mines or the locations of origin of 3TGs in our supply chain.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***C.Smelters and Refiners***

Of the suppliers we surveyed, many completed the RMI template at the company or business unit level, and they were unable to verify that 3TGs from the processing facilities they listed were in components they supplied to us. The quality of the responses we received from suppliers varied. Many responses provided via the CMRT included the names of facilities listed by the suppliers as SORs. The CMRT responses that did not list at least one smelter for each 3TG were considered invalid, and our Service Provider followed up on these responses, urging suppliers to resubmit the form and include the smelter information. There are still suppliers that were unable to provide SORs used for the materials supplied to us.

For all the CMRT responses that indicated a smelter, our Service Provider compared them to the list of smelters maintained by the RMI. As of May 26, 2025, we validated 361 SORs. <u>Appendix A</u> lists only the SORs that our suppliers reported as being in their supply chains and that we validated. <u>Appendix B</u> is a compilation of countries of origin, setting out the countries from which the reported facilities source their conflict minerals.

As our suppliers have been largely unable to provide us with the information necessary to determine country of origin at the product level, we are unable to provide additional SOR names or country of origin information at this time. We will continue to work with our suppliers to obtain smelter information at the product level.

**VI.Future Steps to be Taken**

We are committed to complying with the provisions of the Rule and expect to continue our efforts to improve our conflict minerals program. As we further develop our program, we intend to take the following steps to mitigate the risk that any of the 3TGs contained in our products could benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries. These may include, but are not limited to, the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Further engage with suppliers and direct them to training resources to increase our survey response rate and improve the content of the responses;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continue to invest in due diligence tools for our conflict minerals program;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If applicable, engage any of our suppliers found to be supplying 3TGs from sources that support conflict in the Covered Countries to establish an alternative source of 3TGs that does not support such conflict;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Continue to respond to industry trends and legal requirements to improve the traceability of 3TGs in our supply chain; and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Further encourage suppliers to provide responses at the product level to enable us to determine which smelters and refiners actually process 3TGs contained in our products.

------

**APPENDIX A**

The table below lists the smelters or refiners ("SORs") identified by our direct suppliers that may have been used to process 3TGs necessary to the functionality or production of our products in 2024.
