[{"type":"text","content":"WILMETTE, Ill., June 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Monopar Therapeutics Inc. (“Monopar” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: MNPR), a clinical‐stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative treatments for patients with unmet medical needs, today announced that it will be added to the broad-market Russell 3000® Index, with automatic inclusion in the small-cap Russell 2000® Index, after the close of U.S. equity markets on June 27, 2025. The inclusion follows the initial announcement on Friday, May 23, and the subsequent update on Friday, May 30, 2025, in connection with the annual reconstitution of the Russell U.S. Indexes. The Russell 2000® Index tracks the performance of the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity market and is a subset of the Russell 3000® Index – a market capitalization-weighted equity index representing the largest 3,000 U.S. stocks. Inclusion in the Russell 3000® Index also leads to automatic inclusion in the relevant growth and value style indexes. Membership remains in effect for one year until the next reconstitution. Russell U.S. Indexes, provided by FTSE Russell, are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors as benchmarks for active and passive investment strategies. As of May 2025, approximately $10.6 trillion in assets are benchmarked against the Russell U.S. Indexes. “This is an important milestone for Monopar and reflects the significant transformation and growth we have experienced over the past year,” said Quan Vu, Monopar’s Chief Financial Officer. “We are honored to be joining the Russell U.S. Indexes, an achievement driven largely by the growing recognition of our late-stage ALXN1840 drug candidate for Wilson disease.” For more information on the Russell 2000® Index and Russell 3000® Index and the annual reconstitution, please visit the “Russell Reconstitution” section on the FTSE Russell website.
