Catalyst-Driven Investment Approach
XXXXXXXXX
The Gabelli Value 25 Fund is a highly concentrated all-cap portfolio built on our firms longstanding research methodology, Private Market Value with a Catalyst™, which we use to identify companies trading below the PMV that may encounter an event that could surface value. The Fund invests primarily in equity securities of companies that the Adviser believes are undervalued and have the potential to achieve significant capital appreciation, overweighting its core twenty-five equity positions.
The Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.
Dedicated Leadership: Managed since inception in 1989 by Mario Gabelli, CFA, veteran portfolio manager with over 60 years of investment management experience and supported by Co-CIO and Co-Portfolio Manager, Chris Marangi.
Deep and Disciplined: The Fund utilizes our Private Market Value with a Catalyst™ approach to determine the price a strategic buyer would be willing to pay for the entire company and potential catalysts, such as buyouts or management changes, that could surface the unlocked value of the company.
Concentrated Portfolio: The Fund concentrates investments in high-conviction stocks.

The Fund’s share price will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio securities. Stocks are subject to market, economic and business risks that cause their prices to fluctuate. When you sell Fund shares, they may be worth less than what you paid for them. Consequently, you can lose money by investing in the Fund.
Standard deviation is a statistical measure of the volatility of a fund’s returns. Beta measures a fund’s risk relative to the S&P 500 Index which, by definition, has a beta of 1.00. If a fund’s beta is less than 1.00, the fund is considered less risky than the market. Alpha is a measure of a fund’s actual returns and expected performance, given its level of risk (as measured by beta). Upside/downside capture ratio show you whether a given fund has outperformed, gained more or less than, a broad market benchmark during periods of market strength and weakness, and if so, by how much. R-squared is a statistic that indicates how much of a fund’s fluctuations were attributable to movements of the fund’s benchmark index.

The inception date of the Fund was September 29, 1989. The Class A Shares’ net asset values are used to calculate performance for the periods prior to the issuance of Class C Shares on March 15, 2000, Class I Shares on January 11, 2008 and Class AAA Shares on April 30, 2010. The actual performance for Class C Shares would have been lower and Class AAA and Class I Shares higher due to the different expenses associated with those classes of shares. Performance for periods less than one year is not annualized. Class A Shares (load adjusted) includes the effect of the maximum 5.75% sales charge at the beginning of the period. Class C Shares (load adjusted) includes the effect of the applicable 1% contingent deferred sales charge for shares redeemed up to and including the last day of the twelfth month after purchase. The Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged in seven days or less after the date of purchase. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged indicator of stock market performance, its returns do not reflect any fees, expenses, or sales charges, and it is not available for direct deposit.Investing in foreign securities involves risks not ordinarily associated with investment in domestic issues including currency fluctuations, economic and political risks.
