NEW YORK, May 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- S&P SmallCap 600 constituent McDermott International Inc. MDR will replace Diebold Nixdorf Inc. DBD in the S&P MidCap 400, and Diebold Nixdorf will replace McDermott International in the S&P SmallCap 600 effective prior to the open of trading on Thursday, May 10. McDermott International is merging with Chicago Bridge & Iron Company N.V. CBI in a deal expected to be completed on or about that date pending final conditions.  Post-merger, the combined company will have a market capitalization more representative of the mid-cap market space. Diebold Nixdorf is ranked at the bottom of the S&P MidCap 400 and is no longer appropriate for that index.

McDermott International provides engineering, procurement, construction and installation, front-end engineering and design, and module fabrication services for upstream field developments. Headquartered in Houston, TX, the company will be added to the S&P MidCap 400 Global Industry Classification Sector (GICS) Oil & Gas Equipment & Services Sub-Industry index.

Diebold Nixdorf provides connected commerce solutions to financial institutions and retailers. Headquartered in North Canton, OH, the company will be added to the S&P SmallCap 600 GICS Technology Hardware, Storage & Peripherals Sub-Industry index.
