Big moves are happening in the world of public equities — and this one is especially significant for investors watching the healthcare and industrial sectors.

Veracyte, a pioneering molecular diagnostics company focused on transforming the way diseases like cancer and other conditions are diagnosed, is set to join the S&P SmallCap 600 Index. The change will take effect before the opening bell on Tuesday, July 29, 2025.

Veracyte is stepping in to take the place of Triumph Group, a long-time pillar in the aerospace and defense world. Triumph’s exit from the index marks the end of an era, as the company transitions out of public markets following its acquisition by private equity firms Warburg Pincus and Berkshire Partners. With the deal nearing its final close, Triumph is preparing to go private — quietly bowing out of the public spotlight after years of serving the skies.

Veracyte’s addition to the S&P SmallCap 600 represents a significant achievement for the firm. It is an acknowledgement not only of market capitalization, but also financial well-being, liquidity, and growth path. Veracyte has increasingly established itself as a force in the healthcare sector, using genomics and AI-driven insights to provide more precise, less risky diagnostic tests. Its inclusion in the index will enhance its profile among institutional investors and can bring in more money from index-linked funds.

This reshuffling also reflects a broader narrative in public markets today: the ongoing shift in sector dominance, the growing influence of healthcare innovation, and the increasing number of industrial players being taken private by investment firms.

As always, these index updates are governed by S&P Dow Jones Indices, the industry’s benchmark for reliable, rule-based market tracking. Being added to an S&P index is more than symbolic — it’s a nod to a company’s emerging role in shaping its sector and an indicator of where investor confidence is headed.

For Veracyte, it’s a move from niche recognition to broader market relevance. And for Triumph Group, it signals the start of a new chapter behind private walls. The markets, as ever, continue to evolve.
