Insights
Large institutional holders report up to 18% of Synaptics, with a passive intent statement.
Ameriprise Financial and its investment adviser report beneficial ownership of 7,021,238 Synaptics shares, or 18.0% of the common stock as of December 31, 2025. The Columbia Seligman Technology and Information Fund alone reports 4,279,098 shares, or 11.0%.
The filing clarifies that Columbia Management Investment Advisers may be deemed to beneficially own shares held across various funds and accounts, and Ameriprise may be deemed to own those held by Columbia. Each entity disclaims beneficial ownership, signalling that legal control and economic exposure are structured through advisory relationships.
The certification states the securities were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business and not to change or influence control of Synaptics. Future ownership levels will depend on portfolio decisions within Columbia-managed funds and accounts, but this document presents the position as a passive institutional holding at year-end 2025.

These shares contribute to the broader position reported by Columbia Management Investment Advisers and Ameriprise Financial on the Schedule 13G/A.
