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.
2Harmonic 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 (16% of portfolio holdings
as of 10/31/23). The Price-to-Book, or P/B, Ratio is calculated by
dividing a company's share price by its book value per share.
The Price-to-Book, or P/B, Ratio is calculated by
dividing a company's share price by its book value per share.
Net leverage is the percentage, in excess of 100 %, of the total
value of equity type investments, divided by net assets.
