About SAMVX

Virtus Ceredex Mid-Cap Value Equity Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on delivering total return through investment in dividend-paying U.S. mid-cap companies that appear undervalued. Managed by Ceredex Value Advisors, the fund employs a disciplined process centered on identifying stocks with attractive valuations, sound dividend policies, and improving company fundamentals.

Sector allocation is flexible, with positions generally sized between 1% to 5%. The fund leverages extensive fundamental research and bottom-up analysis to uncover catalysts for price appreciation, such as new management, restructurings, or product innovations. By targeting mid-cap equities within the Russell Midcap® Value Index market capitalization range, the fund aims to balance growth and stability, providing investors access to a dynamic segment of the U.S. equity market while attempting to reduce overall volatility through dividend exposure.
