About LVAEX
The LSV Value Equity Fund Investor Class is a U.S. equity mutual fund designed to pursue long-term capital growth by investing primarily in large- and mid-cap companies exhibiting value characteristics. Employing a quantitative, deep value investment approach, the fund systematically selects stocks that are undervalued relative to their fundamentals, focusing on metrics such as low price-to-earnings and price-to-cash flow ratios, as well as higher dividend yields compared to its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index. This strategy results in a well-diversified and risk-controlled portfolio, typically comprising at least 75 holdings across various sectors, with significant representation in financial services, communication, energy, and healthcare. The fund targets at least 80% of its assets in equity securities, minimizing exposure to bonds or other asset classes. Since its inception in 1999, the LSV Value Equity Fund Investor Class has attracted investors seeking disciplined value exposure within the large value segment, and its assets under management regularly exceed $1 billion, highlighting its role as a noteworthy option for those interested in systematic, research-driven value investing within the U.S. equity market.
