Baxter International Inc.

NEW YORK, March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Bloomberg Indices announced the following changes to the Bloomberg 500 (B500) Index effective prior to the open of trading on Thursday, March 12, 2026, to coincide with the March reconstitution of the index. The B500 contains the 500 most highly capitalized US companies weighted by float market cap, reflecting a market capitalization of $58.19 trillion.

AST SpaceMobile, Inc. (ASTS UW), Bloom Energy Corporation (BE UN), Ciena Corporation (CIEN UN), Coherent Corp.S (COHR UN), EchoStar Corporation (SATS UW), Flutter Entertainment PLC (FLUT UN), FTAI Aviation Ltd. (FTAI UW), Lumentum Holdings Inc. (LITE UW), Nebius Group N.V. (NBIS UW), Royal Gold, Inc. (RGLD UW), and Sandisk Corporation of Delaware (SNDK UW) will enter the index. These equities span a variety of sectors, but Technology is most represented amongst this set.

Changes to the B500 Index reflect the results of a purely rules-based index design focused on measuring markets with transparency and representativeness beyond market capitalization alone. As a result, the B500 mitigates potential biases and systematically evaluates potential members, which may lead to earlier additions of qualified companies when compared to indices using a committee-based approach.

Following is the list of membership changes:

The B500 is available to Terminal clients at {B500 INDEX <GO>}. All research and methodology for the indices are available at bloombergindices.com.
