Seeks to Uncover Hidden Value in the Micro-Cap Sector
XXXXXXXXX
The Gabelli Global Mini Mites Fund aims to capitalize on market inefficiencies within the micro-cap sector by focusing on underpriced companies relative to their Private Market Value (PMV). The Fund primarily invests in micro-cap equity securities, targeting companies with market capitalizations of $250 million or less at the time of initial investment. This strategy complements a broader asset allocation approach, seeking to enhance returns by investing in overlooked and underpriced companies.
The Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.
High Conviction: A portfolio comprised of our strongest investment ideas. These often overlooked companies are not widely covered by industry analysts.
Value: Exposure to companies whose true economic potential is not yet fully recognized by the market.

A graphical measurement of a portfolio’s net return that simulates the performance of an initial investment of $10,000 over the given time period.
Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Due to market volatility, current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Total return and average annual returns are historical and reflect changes in share price, reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and are net of expenses. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so, upon redemption, shares may be worth more or less than their original cost.
