Synaptics Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Registrant”) is filing this Registration Statement to register an additional 2,600,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), for issuance under the Registrant’s Amended and Restated 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan (as amended, the “2010 Plan”). The 2010 Plan was further amended and restated by the Registrant’s Board of Directors to, among other things, increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance thereunder by 2,600,000 shares. The amendments to the 2010 Plan were approved by the Registrant’s stockholders on October 25, 2016.

This Registration Statement is being filed for the purpose of increasing the number of securities of the same class as other securities for which a Registration Statement on Form S-8 relating to the same benefit plan is effective pursuant to the amendments to the 2010 Plan described above. The Registrant previously registered shares of its Common Stock for issuance under the 2010 Plan under the following registration statements: a Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 5, 2010 (File No. 333-170401); and a Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on January 21, 2014 (File No. 333-193470). Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8, this Registration Statement hereby incorporates by reference the contents of the Registration Statements referenced above with respect to the shares of common stock registered under the 2010 Plan, except to the extent supplemented or amended or superseded by the information set forth or incorporated herein.
