NEWARK, N.Y., July 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ultralife Corporation (NASDAQ: ULBI) has been added to the Russell 2000® Index and the broad market Russell 3000® Index as part of the 2024 annual reconstitution of the index, effective at the open of the U.S. equity market today, July 1, 2024.

"The inclusion of Ultralife in the Russell 2000® Index, one of the most widely used performance benchmarks for small-cap companies, testifies to the substantial improvement in the Company's financial profile and earnings power as we began to realize returns on our customer-driven new product investments and to recapture margins while continuing to advance our transformational projects for our commercial and government/defense customers," said Mike Manna, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Being included in the Russell Index should enhance our visibility with institutional investors seeking to hold companies in the growing markets for power solutions and electronic systems as we continue to build shareholder value through the delivery of sustainable, profitable growth."

Russell U.S. indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and benchmarks for active investment strategies. The annual reconstitution of the Russell U.S. Indexes identified the 4,000 largest U.S. stocks as of April 30, 2024 ranked by total market capitalization. Inclusion in the U.S. all-cap Russell 3000® Index remains in place for one year and also means that Ultralife has been added to the small-cap Russell 2000® Index as well as applicable growth and value style indexes. FTSE Russell determines the composition of its Russell indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings and other corporate attributes.
