About JVLAX
John Hancock Disciplined Value Fund Class A is a mutual fund that seeks long-term growth of capital primarily through investments in equity securities, with current income as a secondary objective. It invests at least 80% of its net assets in a diversified portfolio of common stocks and similar equity securities from issuers with market capitalizations of $1 billion or greater, selected for their value characteristics. The manager evaluates factors such as price-to-book and price-to-earnings ratios alongside operating and financial fundamentals including return on equity, earnings growth, and cash flow. This disciplined value approach involves continuous analysis of industry trends, company earnings power, and growth potential, potentially concentrating in specific sectors. The fund may allocate up to 20% to foreign securities and up to 15% to illiquid securities, and it participates in initial public offerings. Managed by Robeco Investment Management, Inc., it falls within the large value category, emphasizing undervalued large-cap stocks across sectors like financial services, technology, healthcare, and industrials.
