Value Line, Inc.VALU
Financial sector

Publishes investment periodicals, data, and proprietary ranks for individual investors, professionals, libraries, and investment firms. Economics come from the Publishing segment plus non-voting revenue and profit interests in EULAV Asset Management, the adviser to Value Line Funds.

Produces investment periodicals, related publications, data, and proprietary ranks through a single Publishing segment. Products cover stocks, mutual funds, ETFs, and options, with retail, professional, library, and investment-firm channels.

Runs from New York with a research/process discipline around analyst holdings and employee trading around rank changes. The Value Line Investment Survey and related digital services anchor the product family, while copyrights and ranking information are also licensed for third-party use.

Economics also depend on non-voting revenue and profit interests in EULAV Asset Management, adviser to the Value Line Funds. Arnold Bernhard & Co. controls the voting stock, and the business faces larger research competitors, free online investment information, and customer concentration in publishing.
