All performance information reflects past performance, is presented on a total return basis, reflects the reinvestment of distributions and does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that shares may be worth more or less than their original cost when redeemed.
Current performance may be higher or lower than performance quoted. Current month-end performance information may be obtained at www.roycefunds.com.
Shares redeemed within 365 days of purchase may be subject to a 2% redemption fee payable to the Fund, which is not reflected in the performance shown above; if it were, performance would be lower.The Fund invests primarily in micro-cap, small-cap and/or mid-cap stocks, which may involve considerably more risk than investing in larger-cap stocks (Please see "Primary Risks for Fund Investors" in the prospectus).
The Fund also invests primarily in a limited number of stocks, which may involve considerably more risk than a less concentrated portfolio because a decline in the value of these stocks would cause the Fund’s overall value to decline to a greater degree (Please see "Primary Risks for Fund Investors" in the prospectus).The Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in foreign companies which may be subject to different risks than investments in securities of U.S. companies, including adverse political, social, economic or other developments that are unique to a particular country or region. (Please see "Investing in Foreign Securities" in the prospectus) Therefore, the prices of the securities of foreign companies in particular countries or regions may, at times, move in a different direction than those of the securities of U.S. companies. (Please see "Primary Risks for Fund Investors" in the prospectus)
Operating expenses reflect the Fund's total annual operating expenses as of the most current prospectus and include the Fund's management fee based on 12.5% of the Fund’s pre-fee, high watermark return (+27.2% in 2010). The Fund's total annual Fund operating expense ratio of 3.53% consisted of the management fee, dividends on securities sold short, other expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses. Royce & Associates has contractually agreed to absorb all other operating expenses of the Fund, other than dividend expense relating to any short selling activity of the Fund and acquired fund fees and expenses, when applicable.
Acquired fund fees and expenses reflect the estimated amount of the fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund through its investments in mutual funds, hedge funds, private equity funds and other investment companies.
