Value Line Aggressive Income Trust

To Our Value Line Aggressive

To Our Shareholders:

During the six months ended July 31, 2007, the total return of the Value Line Aggressive Income Trust (the “Trust”) was 0.34%. This outperformed the Lehman Brothers U.S. Corporate High Yield Index⁽¹⁾, a proxy for the overall high-yield market. That index was down 1.87% over the same period.

The first part of the year saw erratic Gross Domestic Product growth, which when combined with the problems in the housing area resulted in a tightening of credit conditions. Earlier in the year, the relative spread of high-yield securities over US Treasuries was at the lower end of its historical range. However, the problems in the mortgage market have spread to other asset classes and caused high-yield securities to move back to their historical norm at roughly 4% above Treasury holdings. While the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates this fall to help lessen the severity of any economic slowdown, this seems to have already been priced into the yield curve at this point. Defaults are still close to record lows for corporate securities, but the ratings agencies forecast this number will rise in the coming 12- month period to its historical average of roughly 4%. The recent volatility has not been good for overall returns, but it has allowed us to invest at rates that have not been seen in a few years. We are optimistic we can continue to raise the yield of the Trust going forward.

Our conservative stance has helped relative performance in the past six-month period. Moreover, given that we believe the next six months will prove to be volatile, we will continue to take a conservative stance and focus our investments in the more liquid and stronger credits available in the high-yield market. We continue to maintain significant holdings in the energy and materials sectors, since global growth should support these areas. We also have a favorable outlook for the earnings and cash flows for these companies, even if the rather volatile underlying commodity prices pull back from their recent levels. Preserving capital in difficult market environments, while generating an attractive dividend yield, remain our goals. Thank you for your continued confidence.

Sincerely,

 

Jean Bernhard Buttner
Chairman and President

Economic Observations

The U.S. economy struggled early in the year, posting a first-quarter gross domestic product increase of a scant 0.6%. Then, a combination of rising inventory investment, a pickup in export demand, and gains in government spending and nonresidential construction helped to offset a further decline in housing demand and a slowdown in consumer spending to produce a second-quarter GDP increase of 4.0%. However, that stepup in growth is likely to prove fleeting. Indeed, we are already seeing signs, in the form of additional weakness in housing and a worsening in the employment outlook, to suggest that GDP growth will pull back into the 2% range in the current half of the year. Little improvement is likely in 2008, with GDP growth averaging just 2.0%–2.5%, or so.

This comparatively stable, albeit relatively modest pace of business growth assumes that there are no exogenous global shocks with which to contend, such as a worsening situation in the Middle East, a further surge in oil prices, or a serious misstep by the Federal Reserve Board. Any of these unwelcome events, along with any significant additional slippage in the nation’s employment levels, could well disrupt the orderly pace of economic activity sufficiently to bring on a recession.

Inflation, meantime, remains under control for the most part, thanks to generally stable labor costs and meaningful levels of productivity growth (i.e., labor cost efficiency). Adequate supplies of raw materials are also helping to keep the costs of production from undue escalation. We caution, though, that as the economy moves further along the recovery trail over the next 3 to 5 years, some modest pickup in pricing pressures could emerge. Absent a stronger long-term business expansion than we forecast, or a prolonged rise in oil prices, inflation should be held in check for the most part to the end of the decade. Longer-term interest rates, which are heavily influenced by inflationary expectations, should remain in a comparatively narrow range through that time period.

TRUST EXPENSES (unaudited):

Example

As a shareholder of the Trust, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other Trust expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Trust and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (February 1, 2007 through July 31, 2007).

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000=8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Trust’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Trust’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Trust and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

	Beginning account value 2/1/07		Ending account value 7/31/07		Expenses* paid during period 2/1/07 thru 7/31/07
Actual	$	1,000.00	$	1,003.40	$4.27
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)	$	1,000.00	$	1,020.54	$4.31

 

* Expenses are equal to the Trust’s annualized expense ratio of 0.86%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 to reflect the one-half period. This expense ratio may differ from the expense ratio shown in the Financial Highlights.

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)

1.     Significant Accounting Policies

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The primary investment objective of the Trust is to maximize current income through investment in a diversified portfolio of high-yield fixed-income securities. As a secondary investment objective, the Trust will seek capital appreciation but only when consistent with its primary objective. Lower rated or unrated (i.e., high-yield) securities are more likely to react to developments affecting market risk (general market liquidity) and credit risk (issuers’ inability to meet principal and interest payments on their obligations) than are more highly rated securities, which react primarily to movements in the general level of interest rates. The ability of issuers of debt securities held by the Trust to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific industry. The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Such policies are consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. Generally accepted accounting principles may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

(A)  Security Valuation. The Trustees have determined that the value of bonds and other fixed income corporate securities be calculated on the valuation date by reference to valuations obtained from an independent pricing service that determines valuations for normal institutional-size trading units of debt securities, without exclusive reliance upon quoted prices. This service takes into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data in determining valuations. Securities, other than bonds and other fixed income securities, not priced in this manner are valued at the midpoint between the latest available and representative bid and asked prices or, when stock exchange valuations are used, at the latest quoted sale price as of the regular close of business of the New York Stock Exchange on the valuation date. Other assets and securities for which market valuations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as the Trustees may determine. In addition, the Trust may use the fair value of a security when the closing price on the primary exchange where the security is traded no longer reflects the value of a security due to factors affecting one or more relevant securities markets or the specific issuer. Short term instruments with maturities of 60 days or less, at the date of purchase, are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on the Trust’s financial statement disclosures.

(B)    Repurchase Agreements.    In connection with repurchase agreements, the Trust’s custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, it is the Trust’s policy to mark-to-market the collateral on a daily basis to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Trust has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings.

12

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust

July 31, 2007

(C)    Distributions.    It is the policy of the Trust to distribute all of its net investment income to shareholders. Dividends from net investment income will be declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed to shareholders annually or more frequently if necessary to comply with the Internal Revenue Code. Income dividends and capital gains distributions are automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Trust unless the shareholder has requested otherwise. Income earned by the Trust on weekends, holidays and other days on which the Trust is closed for business is declared as a dividend on the next day on which the Trust is open for business.

(D)    Federal Income Taxes.    It is the Trust’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies, including the distribution requirements of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation establishes for all entities, including pass-through entities such as the Trust, a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax returns (including whether an entity is taxable in a particular jurisdiction), and requires certain expanded tax disclosures. The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the date of effectiveness. As of July 31, 2007, management has reviewed the tax positions for the tax years still subject to tax audit under the statute of limitations, evaluated the implication of FIN 48, and determined that there is no impact to the Trust’s financial statements at this time.

(E)    Foreign Currency Translation.    The books and records of the Trust are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities which are denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. The Trust does not isolate changes in the value of investments caused by foreign exchange rate differences from the changes due to other circumstances.

Income and expenses are translated to U.S. dollars based upon the rates of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from currency fluctuations realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the differences between the U.S. dollar amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded by the Trust and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than investments, at the end of fiscal period, resulting from changes in the exchange rates. The effect of the change in foreign exchange rates on the value of investments is included in realized gain/loss on investments and change in net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on investments.

(F)    Representations and Indemnifications.    In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that maybe made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.

(G)    Security Transactions.    Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified-cost basis. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of discount and premium, is earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends received in excess of income are recorded as a reduction of cost of

13

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)

investments and/or realized gain on Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).

(H)    Redemption Fees.    The Trust charges a 2% redemption fee on shares held for less than 120 days. Such fees are retained by the Trust and accounted for as paid in capital.

2.     Trust Share Transactions and Distributions to Shareholders

Transactions in shares of beneficial interest in the Trust were as follows:

	Six Months Ended July 31, 2007 (unaudited)			Year Ended January 31, 2007
Shares sold		185,378			477,167
Shares issued to shareholders in reinvestment of dividends		178,035			393,013

Redemption fees of $2,691 and $3,979 were retained by the Trust for the six months ended July 31, 2007 and the year ended January 31, 2007, respectively.

3.     Purchases and Sales of Securities

Purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities, were as follows:

	Six Months Ended July 31, 2007 (unaudited)
Purchases:
Investment Securities		$5,027,180
Sales:
Investment Securities		$6,517,860

 

4.     Income Taxes (unaudited)

At July 31, 2007, information on the tax components of capital is as follows:

Cost of investments for tax purposes	$	34,633,193
Gross tax unrealized appreciation	$	552,517
Gross tax unrealized depreciation		(938,721	)
Net tax unrealized depreciation on investments	$	(386,204	)
Capital loss carryforward, expires January 31, 2008	$	(17,303,550	)
Capital loss carryforward, expires January 31, 2009		(20,922,783	)
Capital loss carryforward, expires January 31, 2010		(20,653,696	)
Capital loss carryforward, expires January 31, 2011		(5,624,767	)
Capital loss carryforward, at January 31, 2007	$	(64,504,796	)

 

To the extent future capital gains are offset by capital losses, the Trust does not anticipate distributing any such gains to the shareholders. It is uncertain whether the Trust will be able to realize the benefits of the losses before they expire.

5.     Investment Advisory Fee, Service and Distribution Fees and Transactions With Affiliates

An advisory fee of $136,382 was paid or payable to Value Line, Inc., the Trust’s investment adviser, (the “Adviser”), for the six months ended July 31, 2007. This was computed at an annual rate of 0.75 of 1% per year on the first $100 million of the Trust’s average daily net assets for the year, and 0.50 of 1% on the average daily net assets in excess thereof. The Adviser provides research, investment programs and supervision of the investment portfolio and pays costs of administrative services and office space. The Adviser also provides persons, satisfactory to the Trust’s Trustees, to act as officers of the Trust and pays their salaries and wages. Direct expenses of the Trust are charged

14

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust

July 31, 2007

to the Trust while common expenses of the Value Line Funds are allocated proportionately based upon the funds’ respective net assets. The Trust bears all other costs and expenses. Effective March 7, 2006, the Adviser voluntarily waived 0.40% of the advisory fee. Effective June 1, 2007, the Adviser contractually agreed to continue to waive 0.40% of the Trust’s advisory fee for a one year period. The fee waiver amounted to $72,737 for the six months ended July 31, 2007. The Adviser has no right to recoup previously waived amounts.

The Trust has a Service and Distribution Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, compensates Value Line Securities, Inc., a subsidiary of the Adviser (the “Distributor”) for advertising, marketing and distributing the Trust’s shares and for servicing the Trust’s shareholders at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Trust’s average daily net assets. Fees amounting to $45,461, before fee waivers, were accrued under the Plan for the six months ended July 31, 2007. Effective March 7, 2006, the Distributor voluntarily waived 0.10% of the fee under the Plan. Effective June 1, 2007, the Distributor contractually agreed to continue to waive 0.10% of the fee for a one year period. The fee waiver amounted to $18,184 for the six months ended July 31, 2007. The Distributor has no right to recoup previously waived amounts.

For the six months ended July 31, 2007, the Trust’s expenses were reduced by $2,514 under a custody credit arrangement with the custodian.

Certain officers and a director of the Adviser and Value Line Securities, Inc., are also officers and a Trustee of the Trust. At July 31, 2007, the officers and Trustee as a group owned 1,608 shares of beneficial interest in the Trust, representing less than 1% of the outstanding shares.

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust

Factors Considered by the Board in Approving the Investment Advisory
Agreement for Value Line Aggressive Income Trust (unaudited)

The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”) requires the Board of Trustees, including a majority of Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), annually to consider the investment advisory agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Trust and its investment adviser, Value Line, Inc. (“Value Line”). As required by the 1940 Act, the Board requested and Value Line provided such information as the Board deemed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreement. At meetings held throughout the year, including the meeting specifically focused upon the review of the Agreement held on March 8, 2007, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions separately from the non-Independent Trustee of the Trust and any officers of Value Line. In selecting Value Line and approving the continuance of the Agreement, the Independent Trustees relied upon the assistance of counsel to the Independent Trustees.

Both in the meeting that specifically addressed the approval of the Agreement and at other meetings held during the course of the year, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, received materials relating to Value Line’s investment and management services under the Agreement. These materials included information on (i) the investment performance of the Trust over various periods of time compared to the performance of a peer group of funds consisting of the Trust and all retail and institutional high current yield funds regardless of asset size or primary channel of distribution (the “Performance Universe”), as classified by Lipper Inc., an independent evaluation service (“Lipper”), and to the Trust’s benchmark index; (ii) sales and redemption data with respect to the Trust; (iii) the general investment outlook in the markets in which the Trust invests; (iv) arrangements with respect to the distribution of the Trust’s shares; (v) the allocation of the Trust’s brokerage (none of which was effected through any affiliate of Value Line); and (vi) the overall nature, quality and extent of services provided by Value Line.

As part of the review of the continuance of the Agreement, the Board requested, and Value Line provided, additional information in order to evaluate the quality of Value Line’s services and the reasonableness of its fees under the Agreement. In a separate executive session, the Independent Trustees engaged in an extensive review of information, which included data comparing: (i) the Trust’s management fees, transfer agent/custodian fees, service fees (including 12b-1 fees), and other non-management fees, to those incurred by a peer group of funds consisting of the Trust and 12 other retail no-load high current yield funds, as selected objectively by Lipper (the “Expense Group”), and a peer group of funds consisting of the Trust, the Expense Group and all other retail no-load high current yield funds, as selected objectively by Lipper (the “Expense Universe”); (ii) the Trust’s average expense ratio to those of its Expense Group and Expense Universe; (iii) the Trust’s investment performance over various time periods to the average performance of the Performance Universe as well as the 10 or 30 (depending upon availability) largest retail high current yield funds as selected by Lipper (the “Lipper Index”); (iv) Value Line’s financial results and condition, including Value Line’s and its affiliates’ profitability from the services that have been performed for the Trust as well as the Value Line family of funds; (v) the Trust’s current investment management staffing; and (vi) the Trust’s potential for achieving economies of scale. In support of its review of the statistical information, the Board was provided with a detailed description of the methodology used by Lipper to determine the Expense Group, the Expense Universe and the Performance Universe to prepare its information.

The following summarizes matters considered by the Board in connection with its renewal of the Agreement. However, the Board did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling, and the summary does not detail all the matters that were considered.

17

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust

Factors Considered by the Board in Approving the Investment Advisory
Agreement for Value Line Aggressive Income Trust (unaudited)

Investment Performance.    The Board reviewed the Trust’s overall investment performance and compared it to its Performance Universe and the Lipper Index. The Board noted that the Trust’s performance for the one-year, three-year, five-year and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2006 was below the performance of both the Performance Universe average and the Lipper Index.

Value Line’s Personnel and Methods.    The Board reviewed the background of the portfolio manager responsible for the daily management of the Trust’s portfolio, achieving the Trust’s investment objective and adhering to the Trust’s investment strategy. The Independent Trustees also engaged in discussions with Value Line’s senior management who are responsible for the overall functioning of the Trust’s investment operations. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the Trust’s management team and Value Line’s overall resources were well developed and that Value Line had investment management capabilities and personnel essential to performing its duties under the Agreement.

Management Fee and Expenses.    The Board considered Value Line’s fee under the Agreement relative to the management fees charged by its Expense Group and Expense Universe averages. The Board noted that, effective March 7, 2006, Value Line voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the Trust’s management fee, effectively reducing the management fee rate from 0.75% to 0.35% of the Trust’s average daily net assets. As a result of this voluntary management fee waiver, the Board noted that, for the most recent fiscal year, the Trust’s management fee rate (after giving effect to the voluntary management fee waiver) was less than that of both the Expense Group average and the Expense Universe average. In addition, the Board and Value Line agreed that the management fee waiver, as described above, for a one-year period effective June 1, 2007, would be contractually imposed so that it could not be changed without the Board’s approval during such period. Based on these factors, the Board determined that the Trust’s management fee rate payable to Value Line under the Agreement does not constitute fees that are so disproportionately large as to bear no reasonable relationship to the services rendered and that could not have been the product of arm’s-length bargaining, and concluded that the management fee rate under the Agreement is fair and reasonable.

The Board also considered that the Trust’s total expense ratio relative to its Expense Group and Expense Universe averages. The Board noted that, effective March 7, 2006, Value Line Securities, Inc., the Trust’s principal underwriter, voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the Trust’s Rule 12b-1 fee, effectively reducing the Trust’s Rule 12b-1 fee rate from 0.25% to 0.15% of the Trust’s average daily net assets. As a result of this voluntary Rule 12b-1 fee waiver and the management fee waiver, the Board noted that the Trust’s total expense ratio (after giving effect to these waivers) was only slightly higher than that of both the Expense Group average and the Expense Universe average and concluded that the average expense ratio was satisfactory for the purpose of approving the continuance of the Agreement for the coming year. The Board also noted that Value Line Securities, Inc. contractually agreed to waive a portion of the Trust’s Rule 12b-1 fee, as described above, for a one-year period effective June 1, 2007 so that such waiver could not be changed without the Board’s approval during such period.

Nature and Quality of Other Services.    The Board considered the nature, quality, cost and extent of other services provided by Value Line and its affiliate, Value Line Securities, Inc., the Trust’s principal underwriter. At meetings held throughout the year, the Board reviewed the effectiveness of Value Line’s overall compliance program, as well as the services provided by Value Line Securities, Inc. The Board also reviewed the services provided by Value Line and its affiliate in supervising third party service providers. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the nature, quality, cost and extent of such other services provided by Value Line and its affiliate were satisfactory, reliable and beneficial to the Trust’s shareholders.

18

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust

Factors Considered by the Board in Approving the Investment Advisory
Agreement for Value Line Aggressive Income Trust (unaudited)

Profitability.    The Board considered the level of Value Line’s profits with respect to the management of the Trust, including the impact of certain actions taken during 2005, 2006 and 2007. These actions included Value Line’s review of its methodology in allocating certain of its costs to the management of each fund, the reduction of management and/or Rule 12b-1 fees for certain funds (both of which type of reductions may be changed by Value Line or Value Line Securities, Inc. (as the case may be) for certain funds or, for other funds, may not be changed during a set term unless approved by the Board), Value Line’s termination of the use of soft dollar research, and the cessation of trading through Value Line Securities, Inc. Based on a review of these actions and Value Line’s overall profitability, the Board concluded that Value Line’s profits from management of the Trust, including the financial results derived from the Trust, bear a reasonable relationship to the services rendered and are fair for the management of the Trust in light of the business risks involved.

Other Benefits.    The Board also considered the character and amount of other direct and incidental benefits received by Value Line and its affiliates from their association with the Trust. The Board concluded that potential “fall-out” benefits that Value Line and its affiliates may receive, such as greater name recognition, appear to be reasonable, and may in some cases benefit the Trust.

Economies of Scale.    The Board noted that, given the current and anticipated size of the Trust, any perceived and potential economies of scale were not yet a relevant consideration for the Trust and additional break points in the management fee was determined not to be necessary at this time.

Conclusion.    The Board, in light of Value Line’s overall performance and actions taken with respect to the rate at which the management fees and Rule 12b-1 fees are charged, considered it appropriate to continue to retain Value Line as the Trust’s investment adviser. Based on their evaluation of all material factors deemed relevant, and with the advice of independent counsel, the Board concluded that the Trust’s Agreement is fair and reasonable and voted to approve the continuation of the Agreement for another year.
