AG Mortgage Investment Trust, Inc. Set to Join the Russell 3000® Index

AG Mortgage Investment Trust, Inc. (NYSE: MITT) (the “Company” or “MITT”) announced today that, as part of the 36th annual reconstitution of the Russell stock indexes, MITT is expected to be included in the Russell 3000® Index effective at the open of U.S. equity markets on July 1, 2024. A preliminary list of index additions, including MITT, was posted by FTSE Russell on May 24, 2024.

“We are pleased to be included in the Russell 3000® Index, one of the most widely cited performance benchmarks for the U.S. stock market,” said TJ Durkin, Chief Executive Officer and President. “This milestone highlights the success of our growth initiatives, expands our investor base and will provide increased visibility and exposure to the investment community.” Mr. Durkin added, “MITT’s inclusion in the index signals the importance of our market position as a leading residential mortgage REIT and we will continue to execute our strategy to deliver value for our stockholders.”

Membership in the 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. The largest 1,000 stocks indexed in the Russell 3000® Index constitute the Russell 1000® Index, while the Russell 2000® Index is a subset of the smallest 2,000 components of the Russell 3000® Index. FTSE Russell determines membership for its Russell indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings and style attributes.

The Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. Approximately $10.5 trillion in assets are benchmarked to or invested in products based on the Russell US Indexes. Russell indexes are part of FTSE Russell, a leading global index provider.
