Richtech Robotics Announces Preliminary Inclusion in US small-cap Russell 2000® Index

Las Vegas, NV, May 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Richtech Robotics Inc. (Nasdaq: RR) (“Richtech Robotics” or the “Company”), a Nevada-based provider of AI-driven service robots, announces that it has been selected for preliminary inclusion in the US small-cap Russell 2000^® Index, according to a preliminary list of additions published by FTSE Russell on Friday, May 23, 2025. The newly reconstituted indexes are expected to take effect after US market close on June 27, 2025, as part of the 2025 Russell Indexes reconstitution. Membership in the Russell 2000^® Index, which remains in place for one year, is based on membership in the broad-market Russell 3000^® Index. The Company’s stock will also be automatically added to the appropriate growth and value indexes.

“We believe our preliminary inclusion in the Russell 2000^® Index represents a significant validation of the momentum we’re building at Richtech Robotics,” said Matt Casella, President of Richtech Robotics. “It reflects growing market confidence in our long-term vision and the impact our AI-driven automation is having across the service industry. We’re proud of our team’s commitment to innovation, operational excellence, and delivering value to both our customers and shareholders.”

Russell indices are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. According to the data as of the end of June 2024, about $10.6 trillion in assets are benchmarked against the Russell US indexes, which belong to FTSE Russell, a prominent global index provider.
