Health In Tech (HIT) Joins Russell Microcap® Index in 2026 Annual Reconstitution

Health In Tech, Inc. (Nasdaq: HIT), a Florida-based company, was added to the Russell Microcap® Index effective at the open of U.S. markets on June 29, 2026, as part of FTSE Russell's annual U.S. index reconstitution. The inclusion places HIT among the smallest-capitalization publicly traded companies tracked by the Russell family of benchmarks.

What the Russell Reconstitution Means for HIT

Index inclusion carries direct implications for capital flows. Passive funds and exchange-traded products that track the Russell Microcap® Index are required to hold every constituent, meaning HIT shares must now appear in those portfolios. The annual reconstitution, which takes effect at the market open on the final trading day of June, is one of the most closely watched index events of the calendar year precisely because it triggers forced buying across hundreds of newly added names simultaneously.

For a microcap stock, that mechanically driven demand can represent a meaningful share of average daily volume in the days surrounding the effective date. Positioning desks and quantitative funds typically begin adjusting exposure ahead of the official open once FTSE Russell publishes its preliminary and final reconstitution lists.

HIT's Nasdaq Listing and Sector Context

Health In Tech, headquartered in Stuart, Florida, trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker HIT. The company operates in the health-technology sector, a segment that has drawn sustained attention from both growth-oriented and small-cap investors in recent years.

Membership in a recognized index also raises a company's institutional visibility. Portfolio managers benchmarked to the Russell Microcap® Index must now evaluate whether to hold HIT at index weight or take an active overweight or underweight stance — a decision that, in aggregate across funds, shapes the stock's ownership base and liquidity profile.

Russell U.S. Indexes Reconstitution: Annual Process

FTSE Russell conducts its U.S. index reconstitution once a year, reranking thousands of eligible domestic equities by market capitalization and applying rules-based screens to determine membership across the Russell 1000®, Russell 2000®, and Russell Microcap® indexes. The 2026 reconstitution follows the same methodology as prior years, with the reconstituted indexes going live at Monday's open. Companies added or removed in this cycle will remain in their respective index positions until the 2027 reconstitution, barring extraordinary corporate events such as delistings or mergers.
