What drove fund performance during the past 12 months?
-
U.S. large-cap stocks recorded a positive double-digit return in 2025 as anticipation of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and rising valuations in the technology sector driven by artificial intelligence spending outweighed U.S. trade policy uncertainty, signs of labor market weakness, and a federal government shutdown.
-
The consumer discretionary sector contributed to relative performance versus the S&P 500 Index due to positive stock selection. Ulta Beauty was a key contributor as the beauty products retailer reported a string of better-than-expected earnings and gained share. The energy sector added value owing to favorable stock selection, driven by our holding in TechnipFMC, a UK oilfield services company.
-
Information technology detracted the most from relative returns due to adverse stock selection and an underweight to the sector, which outpaced the benchmark. Accenture, a Dublin, Ireland-headquartered management and technology consulting services company, was a large detractor. Health care weighed on relative performance owing to negative stock selection. Eli Lilly & Co. led performance detractors in the sector due to an underweight position in the drugmaker, whose shares surged over the period.
-
The fund relies on a core investing approach leveraging T. Rowe Price's fundamental research platform to identify large U.S. companies that appear to offer the most favorable combination of business fundamentals, earnings growth potential, and reasonable valuation. Sector allocations are driven by bottom-up stock selection. Industrials and business services was the largest overweight versus the benchmark at year-end. Conversely, health care was the largest underweight.

What drove fund performance during the past 12 months?
-
U.S. large-cap stocks recorded a positive double-digit return in 2025 as anticipation of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and rising valuations in the technology sector driven by artificial intelligence spending outweighed U.S. trade policy uncertainty, signs of labor market weakness, and a federal government shutdown.
-
The consumer discretionary sector contributed to relative performance versus the S&P 500 Index due to positive stock selection. Ulta Beauty was a key contributor as the beauty products retailer reported a string of better-than-expected earnings and gained share. The energy sector added value owing to favorable stock selection, driven by our holding in TechnipFMC, a UK oilfield services company.
-
Information technology detracted the most from relative returns due to adverse stock selection and an underweight to the sector, which outpaced the benchmark. Accenture, a Dublin, Ireland-headquartered management and technology consulting services company, was a large detractor. Health care weighed on relative performance owing to negative stock selection. Eli Lilly & Co. led performance detractors in the sector due to an underweight position in the drugmaker, whose shares surged over the period.
-
The fund relies on a core investing approach leveraging T. Rowe Price's fundamental research platform to identify large U.S. companies that appear to offer the most favorable combination of business fundamentals, earnings growth potential, and reasonable valuation. Sector allocations are driven by bottom-up stock selection. Industrials and business services was the largest overweight versus the benchmark at year-end. Conversely, health care was the largest underweight.

|
Audit-Related Fees |
- | - | ||||||||

|
All Other Fees |
- | - | ||||||||
Audit fees include amounts related to the audit of the registrant's annual financial statements and services normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings. Audit-related fees include amounts reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant's financial statements and specifically include the issuance of a report on internal controls and, if applicable, agreed-upon procedures related to fund acquisitions. Tax fees include amounts related to services for tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice. The nature of these services specifically includes the review of distribution calculations and the preparation of Federal, state, and excise tax returns. All other fees include the registrant's pro-ratashare of amounts for agreed-upon procedures in conjunction with service contract approvals by the registrant's Board of Directors/Trustees.
(e)(1) The registrant's audit committee has adopted a policy whereby audit and non-auditservices performed by the registrant's principal accountant for the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant require pre-approvalin advance at regularly scheduled audit committee meetings.

SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Basis
of
Preparation
The fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946
(ASC
946).
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
GAAP
requires
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management.
Management
believes
that
estimates
and
valuations
are
appropriate;
however,
actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates,
and
the
valuations
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
may
differ
from
the
value
ultimately
realized
upon
sale
or
maturity.
Investment
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
and
Distributions
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
basis.
Income
and
expenses
are
recorded
on
the
accrual
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
are
reported
on
the
identified
cost
basis. Income
tax-related
interest
and
penalties,
if
incurred,
T.
ROWE
PRICE

are
recorded
as
income
tax
expense. Dividends
received
from other
investment
companies are
reflected
as
dividend income;
capital
gain
distributions
are
reflected
as
realized
gain/loss. Dividend
income and
capital
gain
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date. Distributions
from
REITs
are
initially
recorded
as
dividend
income
and,
to
the
extent
such
represent
a
return
of
capital
or
capital
gain
for
tax
purposes,
are
reclassified
when
such
information
becomes
available. Non-cash
dividends,
if
any,
are
recorded
at
the
fair
market
value
of
the
asset
received. Proceeds
from
litigation
payments,
if
any,
are
included
in
either
net
realized
gain
(loss)
or
change
in
net
unrealized
gain/loss
from
securities. Distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date. Income
distributions,
if
any,
are
declared
and
paid
by
each
class annually. A
capital
gain
distribution,
if
any, may
also
be
declared
and
paid
by
the
fund
annually.
Class
Accounting
Shareholder
servicing,
prospectus,
and
shareholder
report
expenses
incurred
by
each
class
are
charged
directly
to
the
class
to
which
they
relate.
Expenses
common
to
all
classes,
investment
income,
and
realized
and
unrealized
gains
and
losses
are
allocated
to
the
classes
based
upon
the
relative
daily
net
assets
of
each
class.
The
Advisor
Class
pays
Rule
12b-1
fees,
in
an
amount
not
exceeding
0.25%
of
the
class s
average
daily
net
assets.
In-Kind
Redemptions
In
accordance
with
guidelines
described
in
the
fund s
prospectus,
and
when
considered
to
be
in
the
best
interest
of
all
shareholders,
the
fund
may
distribute
portfolio
securities
rather
than
cash
as
payment
for
a
redemption
of
fund
shares
(in-kind
redemption).
Gains
and
losses
realized
on
in-kind
redemptions
are
not
recognized
for
tax
purposes
and
are
reclassified
from
undistributed
realized
gain
(loss)
to
paid-in
capital.
During
the
year ended
December
31,
2025,
the
fund
realized
$822,750,000 of
net
gain
on
$1,847,683,000
of
in-kind
redemptions.
Capital
Transactions
Each
investor s
interest
in
the
net
assets
of
the
fund
is
represented
by
fund
shares.
The
fund s
net
asset
value
(NAV)
per
share
is
computed
at
the
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
normally
4
p.m.
Eastern
time,
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
business.
However,
the
NAV
per
share
may
be
calculated
at
a
time
other
than
the
normal
close
of
the
NYSE
if
trading
on
the
NYSE
is
restricted,
if
the
NYSE
closes
earlier,
or
as
may
be
permitted
by
the
SEC.
Purchases
and
redemptions
of
fund
shares
are
transacted
at
the
next-computed
NAV
per
share,
after
receipt
of
the
transaction
order
by
T.

Indemnification
In
the

course
of
business, the
fund
may
provide
indemnification
in
connection
with
its
officers
and
directors,
service
providers,
and/or
private
company
investments. The
fund s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown;
however,
the
risk
of
material
loss
is
currently
considered
to
be
remote.

defines
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to

an
asset
or

a
liability
in
an
orderly

between

Board
of
Directors
(the
Board)
has
designated
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
as
the
fund s
valuation
designee
(Valuation
Designee).
Subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board,
the
Valuation
Designee
performs
the
following
functions
in
performing
fair
value
determinations:
assesses
and
manages
valuation
risks;
establishes
and
applies
fair
value
methodologies;
tests
fair
value
methodologies;
and
evaluates
pricing
vendors
and
pricing
agents.
The
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
Valuation
Designee
are
performed
by
its
Valuation
Committee. The
Valuation
Designee provides
periodic
reporting
to
the
Board
on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
GAAP
establishes
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy
that
categorizes
the
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value:
Level
1
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
that
the
fund
can
access
at
the
reporting
date
Level
2
inputs
other
than
Level
1
quoted
prices
that
are
observable,
either
directly
or
indirectly
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
financial
instruments
in
inactive
markets,
interest
rates
and
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)
Level
3
unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee s assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs
are
those
for
which
market
data
are
not
available
and
are
developed

using
the
best
information
available
about
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
When
multiple
inputs
are
used
to
derive
fair
value,
the
financial
instrument
is
assigned
to
the
level
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy
based
on
the
lowest-level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
of
the
financial
instrument.
Input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of
judgment
used
in
determining
those
values.
Valuation
Techniques
Equity
securities,
including
exchange-traded
funds, listed
or
regularly
traded
on
a
securities
exchange
or
in
the
over-the-
counter
(OTC)
market
are
valued
at
the
last
quoted
sale
price
or,
for
certain
markets,
the
official
closing
price
at
the
time
the
valuations
are
made.
OTC
Bulletin
Board
securities
are
valued
at
the
mean
of
the
closing
bid
and
asked
prices.
A
security
that
is
listed
or
traded
on
more
than
one
exchange
is
valued
at
the
quotation
on
the
exchange
determined
to
be
the
primary
market
for
such
security.
Listed
securities
not
traded
on
a
particular
day
are
valued
at
the
mean
of
the
closing
bid
and
asked
prices
for
domestic
securities.
Investments
in
mutual
funds
are
valued
at
the
mutual
fund s
closing
NAV
per
share
on
the
day
of
valuation.
Assets
and
liabilities
other
than
financial
instruments,
including
short-term
receivables
and
payables,
are
carried
at
cost,
or
estimated
realizable
value,
if
less,
which
approximates
fair
value.
Investments
for
which
market
quotations are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable
are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Valuation
Designee.
The
Valuation
Designee
has
adopted
methodologies
for
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable,
including
the
use
of
other
pricing
sources.
Factors
used
in
determining
fair
value
vary
by
type
of
investment
and
may
include
market
or
investment
specific
considerations.
The
Valuation
Designee typically
will
afford
the
greatest
weight
to
actual
prices
in
arm s
length
transactions,
to
the
extent
they
represent
orderly
transactions
between
market
participants,
transaction
information
can
be
reliably
obtained,
and
prices
are
deemed
representative
of
fair
value.
However,
the
Valuation
Designee may
also
consider
other
valuation
methods
such
as
market-based
valuation
multiples;
a
discount
or
premium
from
market
value
of
a
similar,
freely
traded
security
of
the
same
issuer;
discounted
cash
flows;
yield
to
maturity;
or
some
combination.
Fair
value
determinations
are
reviewed
on
a
regular
basis.
Because
any
fair
value
determination
involves
a
significant
amount
of
judgment,
there
is
a
degree
T.
ROWE
PRICE
U.S.
Large-Cap
Core

21
of
subjectivity
inherent
in
such
pricing
decisions. Fair
value
prices
determined
by
the
Valuation
Designee could
differ
from
those
of
other
market
participants,
and
it
is
possible
that
the
fair
value
determined
for
a
security
may
be
materially
different
from
the
value
that
could
be
realized
upon
the
sale
of
that
security.
Valuation

On

,
all
of

OTHER
INVESTMENT
TRANSACTIONS
Consistent
with
its
investment
objective, the
fund
engages
in
the
following
practices
to
manage
exposure
to
certain
risks
and/or
to
enhance
performance.
The
investment
objective,
policies,
program,
and
risk
factors
of the
fund
are
described
more
fully
in the
fund s prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
Securities
Lending
The fund
may
lend
its
securities
to
approved
borrowers
to
earn
additional
income.
Its
securities
lending
activities
are
administered
by
a
lending
agent
in
accordance
with
a
securities
lending
agreement.
Security
loans
generally
do
not
have
stated
maturity
dates,
and
the
fund
may
recall
a
security
at
any
time.
The
fund
receives
collateral
in
the
form
of
cash
or
U.S.
government
securities.
Collateral
is
maintained
over
the
life
of
the
loan
in
an
amount
not
less
than
the
value
of
loaned
securities;
any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
delivered
to
the
fund
the
next
business
day.
Cash
collateral
is
invested
in
accordance
with
investment
guidelines
approved
by
fund
management.
Additionally,
the
lending
agent
indemnifies
the
fund
against
losses
resulting
from
borrower
default.
Although
risk
is
mitigated
by
the
collateral
and
indemnification,
the
fund
could
experience
a
delay
in
recovering
its
securities
and
a
possible
loss
of
income
or
value
if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
the
securities,
collateral
investments
decline
in
value,
and
the
lending
agent
fails
to
perform.
Any
non-cash
collateral
received
cannot
be
sold,
re-invested
or
pledged
by
the
fund,
except
in
the
event
of
borrower
default. Securities
lending
revenue
consists
of
earnings
on
invested
collateral
and
borrowing
fees,
net
of
any
rebates
to
the
borrower,
compensation
to
the
lending
agent,
and
other
administrative
costs.
In
accordance
with
GAAP,
investments
made
with
cash
collateral
are
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements,
but
collateral
received
in
the
form
of
securities
is
not.
At
December
31,
2025,
there
were
no
securities
on
loan.

FEDERAL
INCOME
TAXES
Generally,
no
provision
for
federal
income
taxes
is
required
since
the
fund
intends
to continue
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
under
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
and
distribute
to
shareholders
all
of
its taxable
income

Distributions
determined
in

federal
income
tax
regulations
may
differ
in
amount
or

for
financial
reporting
purposes.
The
fund
files
U.S.
federal,
state,

local
tax
returns
as
required.
The
fund s
tax
returns
are
subject
to
examination
by
the
relevant
tax
authorities
until

of
the
applicable
statute
of

which
is
generally
three
years
after
the
filing
of
the
tax
return
but
which
can
be
extended
to
six
years
in
certain
circumstances.
Tax

have
incorporated
no

that
require
a
provision
for
income
taxes.
Capital
accounts
within

financial
reporting
records
are
adjusted
for

The
investment
management
agreement
between
the
fund
and
Price
Associates
provides
for
an
annual
investment
management
fee,
which
is
computed
daily
and
paid
monthly. The
fee
consists
of
an
individual
fund
fee,
equal
to
0.25%
of
the
fund s
average
daily
net
assets,
and
a
group
fee.
The
group
fee
rate
is
calculated
based
on
the
combined
net
assets
of
certain
mutual
funds
sponsored
by

The
fund s
group
fee
is
determined
by
applying
the
group
fee
rate
to
the
fund s
average
daily
net
assets. At

The

The

makes
investments
in

with
its

as

is
considered
one
reportable
segment
because
the
CODM
allocates
resources

assesses
the
operating

of
the
fund
on
the
whole.
The
fund s
revenue
is
derived
from
investments
in
a

The

Opinion
on

We
have
audited

including
the

of

of
T.

U.S.

in
the

ended
December

(collectively
referred
to

In
our
opinion,
the

present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
as
of
December

Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Fund s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audits.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(PCAOB)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Fund
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audits
of
these
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
T.

PRICE

Our
audits
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
audits
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
December
31,
2025
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
transfer
agent
and
brokers;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
We
believe
that
our
audits
provide
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.
