Conduit Pharmaceuticals to Join Russell 3000® Index

SAN DIEGO and LONDON, June 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Conduit Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: CDT) (the “Company” or “Conduit"), today announced the Company is set to join the broad-market Russell 3000® Index at the conclusion of the 2024 Russell US Indexes annual reconstitution, effective at the open of US equity markets on Monday, July 1, 2024, according to a preliminary list of additions posted by FTSE Russell on Friday, May 24th, 2024.

The annual Russell US Indexes reconstitution captures the 4,000 largest US stocks as of Tuesday, April 30th, ranking them by total market capitalization. Membership in the US all-cap 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 indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings, and style attributes.

"We are thrilled to be joining the Russell 3000® Index,” said Dr. David Tapolczay, Chief Executive Officer of Conduit. “This achievement is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team, underscoring our commitment to advancing novel therapies for patients in need. We believe inclusion in this widely followed index will enhance our visibility within the investment community and enable us to share our unique value proposition with a broader audience. Our ultimate focus remains on the patients we serve, and we are grateful for the efforts of our talented team in helping us reach this important milestone."

Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. As of the end of December 2023, about $10.5 trillion in assets are benchmarked against the Russell US indexes, which belong to FTSE Russell, a prominent global index provider.
