CFO Transition

Synaptics CFO Ken Rizvi has resigned effective immediately to pursue another opportunity. He will remain as an adviser through September 30, 2026, to support the transition.

The company will not search for a successor given its pending merger with ON Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:ON).
