- Value Line Capital Appreciation Fund, Inc. Institutional Class (VLIIX) is a no-load mutual fund that seeks capital appreciation and income consistent with its asset allocation by investing at least 50% of net assets in common or preferred stocks, securities convertible into common stock, or equity-like instruments; the balance primarily in U.S. government securities, investment-grade debt securities rated AAA to BBB at purchase, other fixed income securities, or cash equivalents. The fund is actively managed to target companies with fundamentally strong market positions in growing industries positioned for above-average sales and earnings growth, with no sector weightings restrictions and flexibility across market capitalizations; as of mid-2025, its portfolio composition reflects approximately 67% equities (emphasizing technology at around 40%, communication services, financial services, consumer cyclical, and healthcare), 27% fixed income (with credit quality predominantly AAA at 66%, followed by BBB and others), and 6% cash equivalents. VLIIX, part of the Value Line Funds family managed by EULAV Asset Management and distributed by EULAV Securities LLC, operates within the moderate allocation category and targets long-term investors seeking balanced risk-return profiles through dynamic asset allocation among equities, bonds, and cash. Founded on September 30, 1952, and headquartered in New York City as part of publicly traded Value Line, Inc. (NASDAQ: VALU), the fund serves U.S. institutional and retail investors with a minimum initial investment of $100,000, featuring a net expense ratio of 0.83% (after waivers) and an annual turnover of 36% as of December 31, 2024. It maintains net assets of approximately $497 million as of July 31, 2025, with top holdings including Meta Platforms, NVIDIA, Amazon.com, Advanced Micro Devices, and Alphabet, representing about 29% of assets. The fund has earned strong Morningstar ratings, including 5 stars for 3- and 10-year periods among moderate allocation peers as of May 31, 2025. In recent developments, Value Line, Inc. reported a 15.8% increase in revenues from EULAV Asset Management to $10.3 million for the six months ended October 31, 2025, alongside 10.6% higher investment gains, reflecting robust fund family performance including VLIIX; the parent company also launched a new $2 million stock repurchase program in October 2025 with no expiration. Updated fact sheets and prospectuses were issued on May 1, 2025, incorporating Q1 2025 commentary and holdings data through March 31, 2025, while maintaining expense limitations through waivers by the adviser. No major acquisitions, partnerships, or strategic shifts specific to VLIIX were announced in 2024-2025, though the broader Value Line Funds family approved the liquidation of the Value Line Core Bond Fund in November 2025, underscoring ongoing portfolio optimization efforts.
