Why invest?
  • Small-cap value fund that invests primarily in capital-returning stocks with solid fundamentals. Small-cap stocks' market caps are less than the largest stock in the Russell 2000® Index.
  • Focuses on quality companies that pay regular dividends and/or return capital to shareholders. Companies typically fall into one of three investment themes: Compounder, Quality Value, or Special Situations.
  • Average annual total return of 10.0% since inception (12/15/93) through 6/30/25.
  • One of the oldest open-end funds dedicated to investing in micro-cap stocks, which Royce defines as companies with market caps no higher than that of the largest company in the Russell Microcap® Index.
  • Core approach that combines multiple investment themes and offers wide exposure to micro-cap stocks by investing in companies with strong fundamentals and/or prospects selling at prices that Royce believes do not fully reflect these attributes.
  • Average annual total return of 10.3% since inception (12/31/91) through 6/30/25.

Morningstar Style Map

The Morningstar Style Map is the Morningstar Style Box™ with the center 75% of fund holdings plotted as the Morningstar Ownership Zone™. The Morningstar Style Box is designed to reveal a fund's investment strategy. The Morningstar Ownership Zone provides detail about a portfolio's investment style by showing the range of stock sizes and styles. The Ownership Zone is derived by plotting each stock in the portfolio within the proprietary Morningstar Style Box. The shaded area represents the center 75% of the Fund's assets while the plot point in the middle represents the weighted average of its holdings. Over time, the shape and location of a fund's ownership zone may vary.
