About Synaptics Incorporated

Primary reporting period: 2026-06-27 · Research updated Oct 12, 2026. A research update is not a new financial filing.

WSS View

The quick read

The overall Wall Street Score is low across its combined quality, valuation and risk inputs. This can reflect an expensive share price, business weaknesses, or both; check Company Quality and the category breakdown before drawing a conclusion.

At today’s price, the WSS valuation framework currently reads as less attractive based on the available valuation and market data.

The model outlook is currently cautious.

Questions worth answering for SYNA

Research inputs 100% complete

  • •Is SYNA's positive free cash flow repeatable, or is the current level being helped by temporary working-capital or spending changes?
  • •Does SYNA's balance between cash and debt leave enough flexibility if business conditions weaken?
  • •What specifically needs to improve for SYNA to reach sustainable profitability?
  • •What future growth or profitability would be needed to justify SYNA's current valuation?

Momentum & Volatility Signals

Two different market-behavior signals. Momentum measures direction and trend strength. Volatility measures how large and unstable the price moves are, regardless of direction.

Normal movement

20D realized vol 48.1% · 60D 50.5% · Acceleration 0.95x
Momentum = Where is it going?

A high momentum score means price has been trending upward with confirming short- and medium-term strength. A low score means downward or weakening momentum.

Volatility = How violently is it moving?

A high volatility score means larger, less stable price swings. It can happen while a stock is rising or falling, so high volatility is not automatically bullish or bearish.

Important: the volatility score above is based on realized price volatility. Implied volatility (IV) comes from options prices and represents the market's expected future movement. Wall Street Score will keep IV separate and will only display it when a verified options-chain feed is available.

Notices for SYNA

Detected from reported data — verify before acting.

Historical repurchase activity

Reported cash flows or share-count measures indicate past repurchase activity. This does not verify an active buyback authorization or future purchases.

Debt service risk

Interest coverage is low (~-2.9x). Earnings may be strained to cover interest expense.
