Muscle Maker, Inc. Added to Russell Microcap(R) Index

FORT WORTH, TX / ACCESSWIRE / June 26, 2023 / Muscle Maker, Inc. (Nasdaq:GRIL), (the "Company" or "MMI"), is proud to announce its addition to the Russell Microcap® Index, effective after the US market opens on June 26, 2023. The Company believes the addition to the Russell Microcap® index reflects the progress and strategic advancements made by the Company as it continues its planned transformation into the global food supply chain. This recognition comes on the heels of MMI's financial performance, highlighted by an over 7000% year-over-year top line revenue growth in the first quarter of 2023 versus the first quarter of 2022.

During the past 12 months, MMI's share price appreciated approximately 300%, outpacing the popular technology-laden NASDAQ Composite, which saw an increase of approximately 16% during this same time period.

"We believe that our inclusion in the prestigious Russell Microcap® Index is a testament to the progress MMI has made on its strategic path," stated MMI's Chief Executive Officer, Michael Roper. "The incorporation of our Sadot subsidiary, which has yielded a net income of $9.9 million since its inception in November 2022 through May 31, 2023, showcases, we believe, our steadfast commitment to the growth of our agri-commodity enterprise. This accomplishment serves as a compelling testament to the heightened emphasis we place on expanding our agri-commodity business, underscoring our continuous dedication to enhancing shareholder value."

Membership in the Russell Microcap® Index, which remains in place for one year, means automatic inclusion in the appropriate growth and value style indexes. FTSE Russell determines membership for its Russell indexes primarily by objective, market-capitalization rankings, and style attributes.

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's US indexes. Russell indexes are part of FTSE Russell, a leading global index provider.
