In the absence of closing sales prices for such securities, and for other securities traded in the over-the-counter market, the security is valued at the midpoint between the latest available and representative asked and bid prices.

Valuation of open-ended mutual fund shares are based upon the daily net asset values of the shares as calculated by such funds.

Advertising expenses:

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred.

Earnings per Share, basic & fully diluted:

Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the period.

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Contingencies - - Note 9:

The Company commenced an action in New York Supreme Court, seeking damages in an unspecified amount, against a small mutual fund company pertaining to a contemplated transaction. The Company was countersued for alleged damages in excess of $5,000,000. The action was settled without a material adverse effect on the Company. A related entity of the defendant in the New York action brought suit against the Company and certain Directors in Federal Court in Texas based on the same transaction. On the Company's motion, that action has been transferred from Texas to New York. Although the ultimate outcome of the litigation is subject to the inherent uncertainties of any legal proceeding, based upon Counsel's analysis of the factual and legal issues and the Company's meritorious defenses, it is management's belief that the expected outcome of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

Special Dividend - Note 10:

On April 23, 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a distribution from its Retained Earnings in the form of a special dividend of $17.50 per share or $174,678,000 to all shareholders of record as of May 7, 2004, which was paid on May 19, 2004. The purpose of the dividend was to return to all shareholders, in the form of cash, a significant portion of the earnings of the Company from its successful operations over the past number of years at a time when shareholders could enjoy the present favorable tax rates on dividends.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company had liquid resources, which were used in its business, of $81,165,000 at January 31, 2005. In addition to $23,029,000 of working capital, the Company has long-term securities with a market value of $58,136,000, that, although classified as non-current assets, are also readily marketable should the need arise.

The Company's cash flow provided by operations for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 was $29,859,000 versus cash outflow of $1,585,000 in fiscal 2004. The rise in cash flow from operations was primarily due to an increase in proceeds from sales of trading securities and containment of expenses. Net cash outflow of $3,781,000 from investing activities during the nine months ended January 31, 2005 resulted primarily from the redeployment of holdings in long-term and trading equity securities to fixed income securities. Cash outflows from financing activities of $182,162,000 reflect the Company's normal quarterly dividend of $.25 per share for the three quarters of fiscal 2005 as well as a special $17.50 dividend paid to all shareholders on May 19, 2004.

From time to time, the Company's Parent has purchased additional shares of Value Line, Inc. in the market when and as the Parent has determined it to be appropriate. As stated numerous times in the past, the public is reminded that the Parent may make additional purchases from time to time in the future.

Management believes that the Company's cash and other liquid asset resources used in its business together with the future cash flows from operations will be sufficient to finance current and forecasted operations. Management anticipates no borrowing for fiscal year 2005.

Operating Results

Net income for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 of $16,396,000 or $1.64 per share was 6% above income of $15,427,000 or $1.55 per share in fiscal 2004. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2005 of $4,657,000 was 5% below income of $4,904,000 for the comparable period of fiscal 2004. Operating income of $18,550,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 was 6% above operating income of $17,439,000 for the same period of the last fiscal year. Operating income of $6,437,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2005 was 7% above the operating income of $6,040,000 for the third quarter of the last fiscal year.

Revenues of $63,360,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 were comparable to revenues of $63,225,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 2004. Revenues of $21,058,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2005 were 2% below revenues of $21,498,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2004. Retained Earnings of $28,370,000 increased 46% or $8,911,000 during the nine months ended January 31, 2005, which was 12% higher than last year's growth for the same period.

Subscription revenues of $39,272,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 were 1% higher than revenues of $38,769,000 for the same period of the prior fiscal year. Revenues from all electronic publications as well as licensing fees were up 27% for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 while revenues from all print products were down 5% compared to the last fiscal year's level. Subscription revenues of $13,173,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2005 were level with revenues of $13,132,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2004. Investment management fees and services revenues of $24,088,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 were 1.5% below the prior fiscal year's revenues of $24,456,000. Investment management fees and services revenues of $7,885,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2005 decreased 6% below revenues of $8,366,000 for the third quarter in the prior fiscal year.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 of $44,810,000 were 2% below the last fiscal year's expenses of $45,786,000.

Production and distribution costs for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 of $6,615,000 were 5% below expenses of $6,961,000 at January 31, 2004. The decline in expenses was primarily due to lower paper, printing and distribution costs that resulted from a migration in circulation from print to electronic versions of our products. Office and administrative expenses of $6,613,000 were 3% above the prior fiscal year's expenses of $6,423,000. The increase in administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in professional fees and higher rent expenses resulting from scheduled lease increases. These increases were partially offset by lower depreciation of fixed assets and lower software licensing and hardware maintenance fees that resulted from renegotiating vendors' pricing.

The Company's securities transactions, net were $8,033,000 for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 versus transactions, net of $7,511,000 for the same period of the last fiscal year, an increase of 7% or $522,000.

The lower dividend and interest income during fiscal 2005 was a result of sales of the Company's fixed income securities during the latter part of fiscal 2004 in preparation for payment on May 19, 2004 of a special dividend of $17.50 per share to all common stockholders of record as of May 7, 2004.
