Why invest?
  • Small/mid-cap value fund (generally market caps up to $15 billion) that invests primarily in dividend-paying companies with strong business fundamentals and attractive prospects.
  • Focuses on quality businesses, both U.S. and foreign, with below-average debt and above-average profitability selling at prices that Royce believes do not fully reflect underlying quality.
  • Average annual total return of 9.1% since inception (5/3/04) through 3/31/24.
  • 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.
  • Outperformed its benchmark for the 1-, 3-, 5-, 10-, and 20-year periods ended 3/31/24.

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.
