Important Performance and Expense Information
All performance information reflects past performance, is
presented on a total return basis, and reflects the reinvestment of
distributions. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
Current performance may be higher or lower than performance quoted.
Returns as of the most recent month-end may be obtained
at www.royceinvest.com. The market price of the Fund's shares
will fluctuate, so that shares may be worth more or less than their
original cost when sold.
The Fund invests primarily in securities of small-cap and
mid-cap companies, which may involve considerably more risk than
investing in larger-cap companies. The Fund's broadly diversified
portfolio does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss. From
time to time, the Fund may invest a significant portion of its net
assets in foreign securities, which may involve political,
economic, currency and other risks not encountered in U.S.
investments.

1Geometric Average: This weighted
calculation uses each portfolio holding's market cap in a way
designed to not skew the effect of very large or small holdings;
instead, it aims to better identify the portfolio's center, which
Royce believes offers a more accurate measure of average market cap
than a simple mean or median.

Average: This weighted calculation evaluates a portfolio as if
it were a single stock and measures it overall. It compares the
total market value of the portfolio to the portfolio's share in the
earnings of its underlying stocks.

The Price-Earnings, or P/E, ratio is
calculated by dividing a company's share price by its trailing
12-month earnings-per-share (EPS). The Fund's P/E ratio calculation
excludes companies with zero or negative earnings (14% of portfolio
holdings as of 12/31/23). The Price-to-Book, or P/B, Ratio is
calculated by dividing a company's share price by its book value
per share.
