The company's shares are traded on the London Stock Exchange (LON:LSEG) under the ticker symbol SNX.L.
The disclosure did not detail any specific reasons for the adjustment in stake by Whitehall Associated SA, nor did it mention any strategic intentions behind the move. However, such changes in shareholding can often influence a company's strategic direction, governance, and investor relations.
The filing also confirmed that Whitehall Associated SA is not controlled by any natural person or legal entity, nor does it control any other undertakings that hold an interest in Synectics Plc.
