Noteworthy Rank Changes Listed below are some of the stocks whose Timeliness ranks have changed this week. We include mostly rank changes caused by fundamentals such as new earnings reports. Even when a significant change in earnings momentum has been forecast, the stock’s rank will not be affected until the actual results, confirming that forecast, are reported. In most cases, we omit stocks that have been bumped up or down in rank by the dynamism of the ranking system.

Officers, directors, employees and affiliates of Value Line, Inc. (“VLI”), and Value Line’s investment-management affiliate, EULAV Asset Management, LLC (“EULAV”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Value Line, Inc., the parent company of Value Line Publishing, Inc. (“VLPI”), may hold stocks that are reviewed or recommended in this publication. EULAV also manages investment companies and other accounts that use the rankings and recommendations in this publication as part of their investment strategies. These accounts, as well as the officers, directors, employees and affiliates of VLI, may dispose of a security notwithstanding the fact that The Value Line Investment Survey (the “Survey”) ranks the issuer favorably; conversely, such accounts or persons may purchase or hold a security that is poorly ranked by the Survey. Some of the investment companies managed by EULAV only hold securities with a specified minimum Timeliness Rank by the Survey and dispose of those positions when the Timeliness Rank declines or is suspended. Subscribers to the Survey and its related publications as well as some institutional customers of VLPI will have access to the entire Value Line Investment Survey at 8:00 AM each Monday (or the next business day after a Monday when the New York Stock Exchange is closed). At the same time, portfolio managers for EULAV will receive reports providing Timeliness Ranking information. EULAV’s portfolio managers also may have access to publicly available information that may ultimately result in or influence a change in rankings or recommendations, such as earnings releases, changes in market value or disclosure of corporate transactions. The investment companies or accounts may trade upon such information prior to a change in ranking. While the rankings in the Survey are intended to be predictive of future relative performance of an issuer’s securities, the Survey is not intended to constitute a recommendation of any specific security. Any investment decision with respect to any issuer covered by the Survey should be made as part of a diversified portfolio of equity securities and in light of an investor’s particular investment objectives and circumstances.
