Franklin Small Cap Value Fund 

This fund is primarily designed to invest a substantial portion—at least 80%—of its net holdings in companies categorized as small-capitalization (small-cap). For this portfolio, a small-cap company is defined as one whose market value does not surpass the higher of two benchmarks: either the current maximum market capitalization found in the Russell 2000 Index, or the average of that index's highest market capitalization over the preceding twelve months. The fund's strategy typically involves acquiring common stocks (equity securities) that its management team believes are undervalued at the time of purchase and exhibit strong potential for increasing in market price. Additionally, the fund has the flexibility to allocate up to 25% of its total assets to international (foreign) securities.
