Section 1 Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflict Minerals Disclosure

This Form SD disclosure of Alibaba Group Holding Limited (the “Company”) is for the period from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019. Unless the context indicates otherwise, “the Company,” “we,” and “our” refer to Alibaba Group Holding Limited and its consolidated subsidiaries and its affiliated consolidated entities, including our variable interest entities and their subsidiaries.

This 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, 2019 contained conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of such products. “Conflict minerals” are defined as cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite and their derivatives, which are limited to tin, tantalum 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 3TG are necessary to the functionality or production of certain components in its products as follows:

(i)                         Certain of our Tmall Genie smart speakers and certain of our Tmall set-top boxes, projectors, remote controls and routers contain tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold;

(ii)                      DingTalk’s smart attendance machines, projectors and video conferencing equipment contain tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold;

(iii)                   Alibaba Cloud’s servers and network devices contain tin and gold;

(iv)                  Alibaba Cloud’s digital price tags contain tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold;

(v)                     Amap’s navigation systems for vehicles contain tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold;

(vi)                  Pingtouge Semiconductor Co. Ltd.’s chip wafers and chips contain tantalum, tungsten and gold;

(vii)               Cainiao Network’s autonomous delivery robots contain tungsten and gold;

(viii)            Cainiao Network’s warehouse equipment and smart postal machines contain tin and gold;

(ix)                  certain of Taobao Select’s private label home and personal electronics and appliances, taken as a whole, contain tin, gold, tantalum and tungsten; and

(x)                     certain of AGTech’s lottery terminals contain tin, gold, tantalum and tungsten.

We refer to the foregoing products as the “Covered Products.” The Covered Products account for an insignificant percentage of our revenue.

The Company conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry to determine whether any of the 3TG contained in the Covered 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 from recycled or scrap sources. The Company’s primary means of determining the country of origin of the 3TG contained in the Covered Products was conducting (i) an internal supply-chain inquiry to identify products containing 3TG, and (ii) inquiring of the Company’s suppliers eliciting, as applicable, information regarding (a) the country of origin of the 3TG

contained in the Covered Products, (b) whether the 3TG came from scrap or recycled sources, and (c) other relevant information regarding the suppliers’ (or its suppliers’) practices concerning 3TG.

Based on the reasonable country of origin inquiry described above, the Company is unable to determine with the greatest possible specificity the country of origin of the 3TG in the Covered Products.

In accordance with the requirements under Rule 13p-1, the above disclosure is also available on the Company’s website at http://www.alibabagroup.com/en/ir/secfilings.
