About PRSVX
T. Rowe Price Small-Cap Value Fund is a mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital growth by investing primarily in U.S. small-cap companies that appear undervalued relative to their fundamentals. Employing an actively managed approach, the fund targets businesses with comparatively low price-to-earnings, price-to-book, and price-to-cash-flow ratios, seeking stocks that do not reflect their underlying intrinsic value. The portfolio is broadly diversified, typically holding several hundred stocks, and emphasizes companies with solid financial characteristics. Notably, its holdings often include financial services, real estate, and energy sectors among others, reflecting a value-oriented strategy. The fund’s performance is benchmarked against the Russell 2000 Value Index, underscoring its focus within the small-cap value segment of the equity market. Having launched in 1988, it plays a significant role in providing investors exposure to the growth potential of smaller, undervalued U.S. companies, while managing risk through diversification and disciplined valuation criteria.
