PRNewswire -- Red Lion Hotels Corporation (NYSE: RLH) today announced that it anticipates being added to the U.S. small-cap Russell 2000(R) Index based upon preliminary disclosures by the index. The official addition is planned to occur after the Russell Investment Group reconstitutes its comprehensive family of global indexes on June 26, 2009. Membership in the Russell 2000, which remains in place for one year, is based on membership in the broad-market Russell 3000(R) Index. The Russell 3000 also serves as the U.S. component to the Russell Global Index, which Russell launched in 2007. Red Lion would also be added systematically to the appropriate growth and value indexes.
