AMMO, Inc. Set to Join Russell 2000® Index and Russell Microcap® Index on June 28, 2021
June 07 2021 - 8:30AM
AMMO, Inc. (Nasdaq: POWW) (“AMMO” or the “Company”), a premier
American ammunition and munition components manufacturer and
technology leader, is pleased to announce it has been included in
the June 4th preliminary list of member additions to the Russell
2000® Index and the Russell Microcap® Index, which become effective
upon the opening of the US stock markets on June 28, as part of the
2021 Russell indexes reconstitution.
Annual reconstitution of the Russell indexes
captures the 4,000 largest US stocks as of May 7, ranking them by
total market capitalization. Membership in the Russell 2000® Index,
which remains in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in
the large-cap Russell 3000® Index, as well as the appropriate
growth and value style indexes. Membership in the Russell Microcap®
Index, which remains in place for one year, means automatic
inclusion in the appropriate growth and value style indexes. FTSE
Russell determines membership for its Russell indexes primarily by
objective, market-capitalization rankings and style attributes.
Fred Wagenhals, AMMO’s Chairman & CEO,
commented that “our Company’s inclusion in the Russell Indexes will
increase the liquidity of our stock and overall awareness of AMMO
within the investment community, representing an important
milestone in the life of our Company.” Mr. Wagenhals further noted
that “with an approximate $10.6 trillion in assets benchmarked
against Russell’s US indexes, AMMO’s planned addition to the
Russell 2000 and Russell Microcap indexes improves our exposure and
appeal to institutional investors. We believe our planned inclusion
will benefit our ability to continue delivering long-term
shareholder value as we grow the Company.”
Russell indexes are widely used by investment
managers and institutional investors for index funds and as
benchmarks for active investment strategies. Approximately $10.6
trillion in assets are benchmarked against Russell’s US indexes.
Russell indexes are part of FTSE Russell, a leading global index
provider.
