2025 Letter to Shareholders
Fiscal 2025 was a year of transition, progress in advancing our IoT strategy, and a modest recovery. I am honored to
write my first letter as Synaptics CEO. With more than 30 years in semiconductors including scaling Qualcomm s
IoT business from under $1 billion to multiple billions and leading wireless connectivity at Broadcom I look forward
to leveraging Synaptics strengths in Processors, Wireless Connectivity, and Mixed-Signal Touch Sensing technologies
to accelerate growth in AI at the Edge.
Over the past three months, I ve experienced firsthand the depth of our engineering talent and the passion that defines
our culture. With nearly four decades of semiconductor innovation, a broad technology portfolio, and a clear roadmap,
Synaptics is transforming into a leading provider of Edge AI IoT solutions. Over the last year, we strengthened our
capabilities by expanding our Processor and Wireless teams, adding world-class talent, and investing in go-to-market
initiatives to broaden our reach, elevate our brand, and deepen customer engagement across markets from industrial
automation to smart home.
In fiscal 2025, we advanced Core IoT through strategic initiatives. Our upcoming line of Synaptics Astra processors
will further strengthen our position in Edge AI by expanding performance and efficiency. In partnership with Google
Research, we are co-developing the AI accelerators for the next generation of Synaptics Astra processors that we
believe will enhance our Edge AI leadership. This collaboration positions Synaptics Edge AI solutions for broad
adoption across diverse applications and high growth IoT markets. On the Connectivity front, we secured a highperformance Wi-Fi 7 and future technology agreement with Broadcom, strengthening our wireless leadership and
broadening our field of use into AR/VR, smartphones, and consumer audio. We also extended our roadmap with WiFi 8 solutions, advanced Bluetooth, ultra-wideband IP, next-generation GPS/GNSS, and combo front-end modules,
while adding a highly skilled R&D team. In addition, we acquired Packetcraft to accelerate our BLE capabilities.
These investments are driving results. Fiscal 2025 revenue grew 12% to $1.07 billion, with Core IoT product sales up
53%. We expanded non-GAAP operating margin by 310 basis points and delivered a 61% increase in non-GAAP
earnings per share1, while building a strong pipeline of new design wins.
As we enter fiscal 2026, our strategy is clear: accelerate Core IoT growth, deepen share in existing markets, and
expand into new ones. By combining our Mixed Signal, Processor, and Connectivity expertise, Synaptics is uniquely
positioned to deliver differentiated Edge AI products and solutions. We will execute our strategy with financial
discipline, prioritizing investments that drive sustainable, profitable growth.
I would like to thank you for your continued trust and support.
