Financial Index Specialist

Indivior's addition to Russell indexes brings institutional buying potential and enhanced liquidity, reflecting its growing US market presence.

Indivior's inclusion in the Russell 2000® (small-cap) and Russell 3000® indexes represents a significant capital markets milestone that typically triggers increased institutional investment flows. With approximately $10.6 trillion in assets benchmarked against these indexes, passive funds tracking these benchmarks will need to purchase Indivior shares, potentially improving trading liquidity and visibility among institutional investors.

This development aligns with the company's business reality, as 85% of Indivior's net revenue comes from the United States, primarily through SUBLOCADE®, their long-acting injectable treatment for opioid use disorder. The index inclusion validates the company's market position within the US small-cap landscape.

Russell index inclusions typically provide three key benefits:

• Enhanced trading liquidity as index-tracking funds establish positions
• Increased institutional visibility among active managers using these benchmarks
• Potential share price support from broader ownership base

This reconstitution occurs annually, capturing the 4,000 largest US stocks as of April 30. Indivior's membership will remain in place for one year, with the company also added to appropriate growth and value indexes based on its financial characteristics. This broadened shareholder base could reduce volatility and provide a more stable trading environment for the stock going forward.
