Why invest?
  • Small-cap value fund that focuses on companies with above-average profitability and low leverage that are selling at attractive valuations due to what Royce believes are temporary factors. Small-cap stocks' market caps are less than the largest stock in the Russell 2000® Index.
  • Takes a contrarian value approach, looking for stocks with solid fundamentals in industries where pessimism runs high.
  • Average annual total return of 8.6% since inception (6/14/01) through 3/31/26.
  • SMid-Cap fund that invests primarily in capital-returning stocks with solid fundamentals. SMid-cap stocks' market caps are less than the largest stock in the Russell 2500® Index.
  • 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 9.0% since inception (5/3/04) through 3/31/26.

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.
