To Our Value Line Aggressive
 
To Our Shareholders (unaudited):
 
Enclosed is your semi-annual report for the period ended July 31, 2011. We encourage you to carefully review this report, which includes economic observations, your Trust’s performance data and highlights, schedule of investments, and financial statements. For the six months ended July 31, 2011, the total return of the Value Line Aggressive Income Trust was 2.74%, versus the 3.90% of the Barclays Capital U.S. Corporate High Yield Index(1), a proxy for the overall high-yield market.
 
In the beginning of 2011, high-yield securities performed reasonably well due to prospects for continued economic growth, solid corporate profits, and a lower than expected default rate of 2.3%. An unexpectedly slower growth environment took hold as the nation’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) fell to the 1% level following growth of 2% to 4% in 2010. We expect this subpar growth to continue for the course of the year, placing some pressure on the high yield market. After all, high yield has enjoyed strong gains in both 2009 and 2010, so some retrenchment would not be surprising. However, because the Trust emphasizes higher quality credits, B to BB+ and is underweight the lowest rated issues (CCC), the Trust performance should hold up well. The underweight in CCC issues had caused the Trust to underperform its index benchmark during the last six-month period, but we believe this should not be the case in the weaker environment.
 
We continue to focus our investments in the more liquid and stronger credits available in the high-yield sector. We have an underweight in those cyclical industries which are especially sensitive to an economic slowdown, and we have maintained our overweight in energy because we still like the strong earnings growth potential of this sector.
 
Preserving capital in a difficult market environment, while allowing for an attractive dividend yield, remains our goal. We thank you for your continued investment with us.
     
 
Sincerely,
 
     
 
/s/ Mitchell Appel

Economic Highlights (unaudited)
 
The first half of 2011 saw the broad US stock market rising on the heels of strengthening corporate profits. The S&P 500 returned 6% for the first six months of the year despite significant global economic concerns. Several members of the European Union continued to face a serious debt crisis including Greece, Portugal, Ireland, and Spain. Further, the nuclear disaster in Japan and the geopolitical upheaval in commodity markets added to investor concerns. At home, disappointing job growth in the United States kept the national unemployment rate firmly above 9% for the second quarter.
 
By mid-year there was mounting evidence that the US recovery had slowed to a crawl. Consumer spending, which accounts for roughly 70% of economic activity, declined in June for the first time in 2 years. First quarter GDP was up by only 0.4%, and second quarter GDP growth was only modestly better at 1.3%. Employment growth in July lagged June numbers, and it was reported that the level of new factory orders decreased. By August, only 58% of the population was working, the lowest level in nearly 3 decades. Housing prices remained almost uniformly weak.
 
Much of the summer was consumed by the drama of the U.S. debt ceiling negotiations, resulting in an 11th hour deal that appears to satisfy few constituents. It surely did not satisfy Standard & Poor’s who felt that the $2.1 trillion deficit reduction over 10 years was insufficient to solve the country’s debt problem. The rating agency proceeded to downgrade U.S. Treasury debt from AAA to AA+. This downgrade did not affect short-term Treasuries. Within a few days the rating agency imposed the same rating cut on the long-term debt of several U.S. Agencies including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The other major rating agencies, Moody’s and Fitch, maintained AAA ratings for U.S. Treasury debt as well as for the U.S. Agencies. Investor confidence plunged on the heels of the debt ceiling debacle and the US Treasury debt downgrade. Returns for the S&P 500 turned negative in August giving up its returns for the year.
 
The bond market rallied as stocks took a dive. Yields fell and prices rose across fixed income markets as investors looked for safer havens. Despite the rating downgrade, investor demand for Treasuries soared, and by early September, 10-year Treasury note yields had fallen to an all-time low of 1.90%. This downward pressure on Treasury yields came largely from an employment report showing no new jobs being added in August. This disappointing jobs report kept the unemployment report unchanged at 9.1%.

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, 2011 through July 31, 2011).
 
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 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.

Expenses are equal to the Trust’s annualized expense ratio of 1.19% multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 to reflect the one-half year period. This expense ratio may differ from the expense ratio shown in the Financial Highlights.

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 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 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.
 
(B) Fair Value Measurements: The Trust follows fair valuation accounting standards (FASB ASC 820-10) which establish a definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
 
Level 1 — Inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Trust has the ability to access at the measurement date;
Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;
Level 3 — Inputs that are unobservable.
 
Transfers between investment levels may occur as the markets fluctuate and/or the availability of data used in an investment’s valuation changes. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The Trust follows the updated provisions surrounding fair value measurements and disclosures on transfers in and out of all levels of the fair value hierarchy on a gross basis and the reasons for the transfers as well as to disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for investments that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3 fair value hierarchy.
 
For the six months ended July 31, 2011, there was no significant transfer activity between Level 1 and Level 2.
 
For the six months ended July 31, 2011, there were no Level 3 investments. The Schedule of Investments includes a breakdown of the Schedule’s investments by category.
 
(C) Repurchase Agreements: In connection with transactions in 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.
 
(D) 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.

(E) 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.
 
(F) 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.

Value Line Aggressive Income Trust
 
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
 
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 the 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.
 
(G) 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 may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.
 
(H) Security Transactions: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from security 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.
 
(I) Accounting for Real Estate Investment Trusts: The Trust owns shares of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) which report information on the source of their distributions annually. Distributions received from REITs during the year which represent a return of capital are recorded as a reduction of cost and distributions which represent a capital gain dividend are recorded as a realized long-term capital gain on investments.
 
(J) Foreign Taxes: The Trust may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Trust will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.
 
(K) 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.
 
(L) Subsequent Events: Management has evaluated all subsequent transactions and events through the date on which these financial statements were issued, and except as already included in the notes to these financial statements, has determined that no additional items require disclosure.

An advisory fee of $125,577 was paid or payable to EULAV Asset Management (the “Adviser”) for the six months ended July 31, 2011. This was computed at an annual rate of 0.75% on the first $100 million of the Trust’s average daily net assets during the period, and 0.50% on the average daily net assets in excess thereof prior to any fee waivers.
