Hecla Mining Company to Join S&P SmallCap 600 Index

Hecla Mining Company (NYSE: HL) today announced that it will be added to the S&P SmallCap 600 Index, effective prior to the open of trading on September 22, 2025, according to an announcement by S&P Dow Jones Indices.

Inclusion in the S&P SmallCap 600 reflects Hecla’s strong performance, operational scale, and consistent execution across its portfolio of silver and gold operations in the United States and Canada. The S&P SmallCap 600 is designed to measure the performance of a subset of U.S. equities with market caps between $1.2 billion and $8.0 billion, and Hecla’s addition underscores the Company’s increasing recognition within the investment community.

“We are honored to be included in the S&P SmallCap 600, a milestone that reflects both the strength of our assets and the dedication of our people,” said Rob Krcmarov, President and CEO. “As the largest silver producer in both the United States and Canada, our inclusion highlights the long-term value we are creating for our shareholders, employees, and communities.”

The S&P SmallCap 600 is widely followed by index funds and institutional investors, and Hecla’s inclusion is expected to broaden its shareholder base and enhance trading liquidity.
