        <p>DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 26, 2023--ICON plc, (NASDAQ: ICLR), is set to join the broad-market Russell 3000<sup style="vertical-align: text-top; line-height: 1; font-size: smaller;">&#174; </sup>Index at the conclusion of the 2023 Russell indexes annual reconstitution, effective after the US market opens today,
          Monday, June 26. </p>
        <p> Annual Russell indexes reconstitution captures the 4,000 largest US stocks as of April 28, ranking them by total market capitalization, including both the Russell 3000<sup style="vertical-align: text-top; line-height: 1; font-size: smaller;">&#174;</sup> and Russell Microcap<sup style="vertical-align: text-top; line-height: 1; font-size: smaller;">&#174;</sup> Indexes. </p>
        <p> Membership in the US all-cap Russell 3000<sup style="vertical-align: text-top; line-height: 1; font-size: smaller;">&#174;</sup> Index, which remains in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in the large-cap Russell 1000<sup style="vertical-align: text-top; line-height: 1; font-size: smaller;">&#174;</sup> Index or small-cap Russell 2000<sup style="vertical-align: text-top; line-height: 1; font-size: smaller;">&#174;</sup> Index as well as the appropriate
          growth and value style indexes. FTSE Russell determines membership for its Russell indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings and style attributes. </p>
        <p> Russell indexes are widely used by investment managers and institutional investors for index funds and as benchmarks for active investment strategies. Approximately $12.1 trillion in assets are benchmarked against Russell&#8217;s US indexes. Russell
          indexes are part of FTSE Russell, a leading global index provider. </p>
