Forward Looking Statements:
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
This press release includes references to Non-GAAP earnings per share, which is Non-GAAP earnings divided by the weighted average of the number of shares of the company’s common stock outstanding during the applicable period.

Non-GAAP earnings per share has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company's GAAP earnings per share. Further, Non-GAAP earnings per share, as determined and presented by Synaptics, may not be comparable to related or similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
