MELVILLE, N.Y.–()–Intellicheck (Nasdaq: IDN), an industry leader in identification authentication solutions, today announced that the Company is set to join the broad-market Russell 3000 and Russell 2000 Index at the conclusion of the 2020 Russell indexes annual reconstitution, effective after the U.S. stock market opens on June 29, 2020, based on a preliminary list of additions, which is subject to change, made public on June 5, 2020.

Intellicheck CEO Bryan Lewis says inclusion in the Russell 3000 and Russell 2000 Index is further validation of the progress the Company has made. “We believe that inclusion in these indexes speaks to the substantial progress we have made over the past year. This latest milestone further validates our invigorated strategic approach that has driven product adoption across multiple market verticals.”

Lewis noted he expects the demand for the company’s innovative technology solutions to continue to rise. “Identity theft and fraud continue at a record pace that has been further magnified by the pandemic. It is a massive pain point with costly repercussions. I believe the ongoing and growing need for proven technology solutions will continue to drive adoption and I couldn’t be more excited about what is yet to come.”

Annual Russell U.S. Indexes reconstitution captures the 4,000 largest US stocks as of May 11, ranking them by total market capitalization. Membership in the Russell 3000 Index, which remains 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. FTSE Russell determines membership for its Russell U.S. Indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings and style attributes.

Russell U.S. Indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors as the basis for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. Approximately $9 trillion in assets are benchmarked against Russell US Indexes. Russell US Indexes are part of FTSE Russell, a leading global index provider.
