BG Staffing, Inc., a rapidly growing national provider of professional temporary staffing services, recently announced that the Company is set to join the broad-market Russell 3000® Index at the conclusion of the Russell indexes annual reconstitution, effective after the US market opens on June 26, according to a preliminary list of additions posted June 9th.
L. Allen Baker, Jr., Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am proud to announce our preliminary inclusion in the Russell 3000® Index as it underscores our continued commitment to build shareholder value. From revenues of $35 million in 2009 we have grown to $254 million in 2016. We believe inclusion in the Index is a benefit to both our Company and shareholders. It should increase the Company’s visibility and further broaden our shareholder base.”

The annual Russell indexes reconstitution captures the 4,000 largest US stocks as of the end of May, 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 either 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.
