Onsemi to buy Synaptics in $7 billion all-stock deal

Synaptics shareholders will receive 1.350 On Semiconductor shares per share as the chipmaker expands into AI-enabled devices and physical AI, Reuters said.

  • On Semiconductor agreed to acquire Synaptics in a nearly $7 billion all-stock deal, marking the company's largest acquisition to date and bolstering its push into physical artificial intelligence technology.
  • Technology companies are increasingly acquiring startups to strengthen AI capabilities; Qualcomm recently purchased Modular for software development, while Salesforce acquired Fin for about $3.6 billion this month.
  • The Arizona-based company expects the merger to boost its total addressable market by $30 billion to $243 billion by 2030. Shares of Semiconductor fell about 6%, while Synaptics rallied about 13%.
  • Synaptics shareholders will receive 1.350 shares of Semiconductor common stock for each share held, and the acquisition includes the addition of a Synaptics board member to the company.
  • Expected to close in mid-2027, the deal will be discussed by Semiconductor CEO Hassane El-Khoury on CNBC at 9:45 a.m. ET on Friday. The interview will provide additional context on the acquisition.
