"We view this as an important milestone that will help raise awareness of Vuzix within the institutional investment community. We expect the inclusion in the index, combined with the strong momentum that our business is experiencing, to be positive for our shares. We anticipate many benefits from our inclusion in the index, including increased liquidity and wider exposure to institutional investors."
