NEW YORK, June 23, 2016
NEW YORK, June 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Lindblad Expeditions Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: LIND; "Lindblad", the "Company"), a global provider of expedition cruises and adventure travel experiences, announced today that it expects to join the Russell 2000® Index at the conclusion of the Russell US Indexes and Russell Global Indexes annual reconstitution, effective after the U.S. market opens on June 27, 2016.
Annual reconstitution of the Russell US indexes captures the 4,000 largest US stocks as of the end of May, ranking them by total market capitalization. Membership in the US all-cap Russell 3000® Index and the Russell Global Index, which remain in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in the large-cap Russell 1000® Index or small-cap Russell 2000® Index as well as the appropriate growth and value style indexes and sector and country indexes. FTSE Russell determines membership for its Russell indexes by objective, market-capitalization rankings and style attributes.
"Being added to the Russell 2000 which serves as a benchmark for small-cap stocks in the US is a gratifying milestone for the company, and should serve to increase our exposure among investors and add value for our shareholders," said Sven-Olof Lindblad, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lindblad.
Indexes provided by FTSE Russell, a leading global index provider, are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. Approximately $6 trillion in assets are benchmarked against the Russell US indexes.
