Conflict Minerals Report

For The Year Ended December 31, 2025

This Conflict Minerals Report of Franklin Wireless Corp. (the "Company") has been prepared for the year ended December 31, 2025 in accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Rule"). The Rule was adopted by the 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 (Dodd-Frank Act). The Rule imposes certain reporting obligations on SEC registrants who manufacture or contract to manufacture products containing 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) for the purposes of this assessment. These requirements apply to registrants whatever the geographic origin of the Conflict Minerals and whether or not they fund armed conflict. Please refer to Rule 13p-1, Form SD and the 1934 Act Release No. 34-67716 for definitions to the terms used in this Report, unless otherwise defined herein.

If a registrant can establish that the Conflict Minerals originated from sources other than the Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC") or certain adjoining countries (the "Covered Countries") or from recycled or scrap sources, it must submit a Form SD which describes the reasonable country of origin inquiry completed by the registrant.

If a registrant has reason to believe that any of the Conflict Minerals in its supply chain may have originated in any of the Covered Countries, or if it is unable to determine the country of origin of those Conflict Minerals, then the registrant must exercise due diligence on the Conflict Minerals' source and chain of custody and submit a Conflict Minerals Report to the SEC that includes a description of those due diligence measures.

In accordance with the rules, the Company exercised due diligence to determine the Conflict Minerals status of Conflict Minerals necessary to the functionality or production of the wireless data communication products we sell.

The Company has determined in good faith that for calendar year 2025, its Conflict Minerals status resulting from its due diligence efforts shows Conflict Minerals originated from sources other than the Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC") or certain adjoining countries (the "Covered Countries") or from recycled or scrap sources (terms as defined in the Rule).

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI) and RCOI Conclusion

In order to manage the scope of this task, the Company relied upon its manufacturers and suppliers to provide information on the origin of the necessary Conflict Minerals that are used for functionality and production of the Company's wireless data communication products. The Company's reasonable country of origin inquiry (RCOI) employed a combination of measures used to determine whether the necessary Conflict Minerals in the Company's products originated from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country.

Conflict Minerals Policy

Franklin Wireless has adopted the following Conflict Minerals policy:

Conflict Minerals refers to minerals (tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold) mined in the eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and in the adjoining countries where revenues may be directly or indirectly financing armed groups engaged in civil war resulting in serious social and environmental abuses.

While we do not source these minerals directly, they may exist in the components of the products we sell. We are therefore committed to working with our suppliers to ensure that they responsibly source the materials and components used in manufacturing of these products. We expect suppliers to establish their own due diligence program to achieve conflict-free supply chains. Franklin Wireless is committed to ethical practices and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

The policy is posted on our website at www.franklinwireless.com located in "Investor Relations" and "Social Responsibility."

Due Diligence Process

The Company's due diligence measures were based on the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition and Global e-Sustainability ("EICC-GeSI") initiative, known as the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (CFSI), with the smelters and refiners of Conflict Minerals who provide those Conflict Minerals to our suppliers. We conducted a survey using a template developed jointly by EICC-GeSI known as the CFSI Reporting Template (the "Template"). The Template 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 company's conflict-free policy, engagement with its direct suppliers, and a listing of the smelters the company and its suppliers use. In addition, the template contains questions about the origin of Conflict Minerals included in their products, as well as supplier due diligence. Written instructions for the use of the Template is available on CFSI's website located at www.conflictfreesourcing.org. The Template is being widely adopted by many companies in their due diligence processes related to Conflict Minerals.

Franklin Wireless Corp.'s due diligence measures included:

As a company operating in the wireless communications business, the Company is several layers removed from the actual mining of 3TG. The Company does not make any direct purchases of raw ore or unrefined Conflict Minerals and makes no purchases in the Covered Countries.

Having conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry, the Company has concluded that its supply chain Conflict Minerals originated from sources other than the Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC") or certain adjoining countries (the "Covered Countries") or from recycled or scrap sources. Franklin Wireless Corp. makes this determination through the use of detailed surveys from its manufacturers using CFSI's industry approach and traced back the origin of 3TG by identifying smelters, refineries or recyclers and scrap supplier sources. The Company leveraged CFSI and its CFS program to trace the mine of origin of the 3TG to its ore level. The CFS program audits smelters and refineries to ensure that all certified smelters and refineries only use the ores that are conflict free from the DRC and covered countries.

In the next compliance period, the Company intends to continue using CFSI and its CFS program to ensure that Conflict Minerals do not benefit armed groups.

All suppliers and manufacturers of materials containing Conflict Minerals were contacted and 100% responded to the survey. As a result of the due diligence survey, the Company has gathered smelters and refineries names from its supply chain. All of these smelters and refineries are identified as CFSI's known smelters and refineries. Among these 168 smelters and refineries, all 168 are on the list of CFSI's certified Conflict Free Smelters (CFS) list and considered to be conflict free.

Set forth below is the list of identified smelters and refineries identified by CFSI identified by our supply chain and their country of origin:
