Rezolve Ai to Join Russell 2000® and Russell 3000® Indices Following Breakout Year of Hypergrowth and Strategic Alliances

$70 Million ARR Locked in via Customer Contracts
Microsoft and Google Partnerships Accelerate Momentum

NEW YORK, June 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rezolve Ai (NASDAQ: RZLV), the company reinventing retail through real-time AI-driven consumer engagement, today announced its inclusion in the prestigious Russell 2000® and Russell 3000® Indices, effective after market close on June 27, 2025, following the annual reconstitution by FTSE Russell.

The milestone reinforces a strong year for Rezolve Ai, which has surged from a standing start to $70 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR), months ahead of forecast, and is now on track to surpass $100 million ARR by year-end. We believe the Company’s inclusion in the Russell indices reflects rapidly growing investor recognition of its transformative AI solutions and expanding global footprint.

“Joining the Russell indices is more than a symbolic milestone, it’s a strong signal that the market is taking notice as we’ve gone from zero to $70 million ARR in less than two quarters,” said Daniel M. Wagner, Chairman and CEO of Rezolve Ai. “The strategic alliances we have forged with Microsoft and Google are laying the foundation to accelerate revenue growth and position Rezolve as a leading global enterprise solution in AI-powered commerce. While we’re excited about the momentum we’ve experienced to date, we believe we’re just getting started.”

Rezolve Ai’s recent announcements include:

  • $70 million ARR milestone hit ahead of schedule, signaling surging enterprise adoption across global retail, logistics, and financial services.
  • Partnerships with Microsoft and Google, integrating Resolve’s brainpowa LLM into Azure and expanding reach via Google Cloud Marketplace.

Inclusion in the Russell indices, benchmarks used by over $10.6 trillion in institutional assets, will increase Rezolve Ai’s visibility among global investors and positions the Company for continued acceleration.

For more information on the Russell 3000 Index and the Russell indices reconstitution, go to the “Russell Reconstitution” section on the FTSE Russell website.
