On 27 June 2026, A10 Networks, Inc. (NYSE: ATEN) was removed from multiple Russell indexes, including the Russell 3000E, Russell 2000 Value, and several related value and growth benchmarks.

A10 Networks' narrative projects $411.4 million in revenue and $85.0 million in earnings by 2029. Some of the most optimistic analysts were previously modeling revenue of about US$424,300,000 and earnings of roughly US$87,500,000 by 2029.
