Airship AI Added to Russell 3000®, Russell 2000® and Russell Microcap® Indexes

REDMOND, Wash., July 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Airship AI Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AISP) (“Airship AI” or the “Company”), a leader in AI-driven video, sensor, and data management surveillance solutions, today announced that it has been added to the broad-market Russell 3000® effective after the U.S. market close on June 28, 2024 as part of FTSE Russell’s annual reconstitution.

“Our inclusion in the Russell Indexes is an important milestone and testament to the Company’s compelling and growing potential in the enterprise AI software, hardware, and services space,” said Paul Allen, President of Airship AI. “We have made unparalleled progress in the last twelve months with our vision to provide a fully integrated ecosystem of AI driven solutions, enabling customers in law enforcement, defense and intelligence, logistic, and retail, to extract the data they need, when they need it, where they need it. Combined with large government budget tailwinds, we believe we are well positioned to leverage our hardened hardware and software eco-system and working pipeline of ~$120M of high probability orders to continue to build profitable revenue growth. We expect that the awareness of being included in one of the most widely followed benchmarks will benefit our existing shareholders and lead to a broader base of institutional investors.”

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.

Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. According to the data 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.
