MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay, June 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DLocal Limited ("dLocal", "we", "us", and "our") (NASDAQ:DLO), a leading cross-border financial infrastructure platform connecting global merchants to emerging markets, today announced that the Company was added as a member of the US small-cap Russell 2000® Index, effective when the US market opens on June 29 as part of the 2026 Russell indexes reconstitution. Membership in the Russell 2000® Index is based on membership in the broad-market Russell 3000® Index. The stock also was automatically added to the appropriate growth indexes.

"Inclusion in the Russell 3000® and Russell 2000® Indexes marks an important milestone for dLocal and reinforces the growing institutional recognition of our platform, our scale, and our continued execution across emerging markets. We believe this inclusion also reflects the scale, market capitalization, and free float we have built as a public company, and will help broaden our shareholder base, improve trading liquidity, and increase visibility among institutional investors as we continue building the financial infrastructure that connects global enterprises to the markets of the future," said Pedro Arnt, CEO of dLocal.

Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. According to data as of the end of June 2025, about $12.2 trillion in assets are benchmarked against the Russell US indexes, which belong to FTSE Russell, the global index provider.
