WALTHAM, MA / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2020 / SeaChange International Inc. (NASDAQ:SEAC), a leading provider of video delivery platforms, was added to the broad-market Russell 3000® Index at the conclusion of the annual reconstitution of the Russell indexes, effective after the U.S. market opens today, June 29, according to the FTSE Russell website.
Annual Russell indexes reconstitution captures the 4,000 largest U.S. stocks as of May 8, ranking them by total market capitalization. Membership in the U.S. 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.
"Joining the Russell 3000 Index reflects another important milestone for SeaChange," said CEO Yossi Aloni. "This follows several other achievements for SeaChange, including our transformation into a pure software and cloud solutions provider to the video industry. We expect our inclusion in the Russell 3000 Index will help to increase awareness of our accomplishments and improve liquidity, which should benefit both new and existing investors going forward."
