                NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- NOTE 1:

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals except as noted below) considered necessary for a fair
presentation. This report should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and footnotes contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K,
dated July 26, 2002 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2002. Results of
operations covered by this report may not be indicative of the results of
operations for the entire year.


CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:

     The Company considers all cash held at banks and invested in the Value Line
money market funds with an original maturity of less than three months to be
cash and cash equivalents. As of October 31, 2002 and April 30, 2002, cash

Line Mutual Funds are valued at market with unrealized gains and losses on these
securities reported, net of applicable taxes, as a separate component of

included in earnings.


ADVERTISING EXPENSES:

EARNINGS PER SHARE, BASIC & FULLY DILUTED:

     Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of

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.

segment provides advisory services to mutual funds, institutional and individual
clients as well as brokerage services for the Value Line family of mutual funds.
The segments are differentiated by the products and services they offer.

the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company allocates all
revenues and expenses, except for depreciation related to corporate assets,
between the two reportable segments.

                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS



To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Value Line, Inc.
New York, NY

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Value Line, Inc.
and its subsidiaries as of October 31, 2002 and the related consolidated
statements of income for the three month and six month periods ended October 31,
2002 and October 31, 2001 and the consolidated statement of changes in
stockholders' equity, and consolidated statement of cash flows for the six month
periods ended October 31, 2002 and 2001. All information included in these
financial statements is the representation of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquires of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2002 and the related
consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders equity, and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated
July 18, 2002, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated
financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2002 is fairly stated in
all material respects.

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
$223,912,000 at October 31, 2002. In addition to $64,758,000 of working capital,
the Company had long-term securities with a market value of $159,154,000, that,
although classified as non-current assets, are also readily marketable should
the need arise.

     The Company's cash flow from operations of $5,030,000 for the first six
months of fiscal 2003 was lower than cash flow of $10,100,000 for the same
period last fiscal year. The decrease in cash flow from operations was largely
attributable to lower net earnings that resulted primarily from a decrease in
investment management fees and services revenues. In addition, the cash provided
by operations for the first six months of last fiscal year was approximately
$2.5 million higher as a result of the postponement of the Company's estimated
federal income tax payment for the second quarter of fiscal 2002 in accordance
with the Internal Revenue Service's disaster relief due to the September 11,
2001 terrorists' attacks. Net cash outflows from investing activities during the
first six months of fiscal 2003 were $53,789,000 due largely to the Company's
decision to re-deploy its cash holdings into government securities with higher
yields than the cash instruments.

     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. The Company understands 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 2003.


                                OPERATING RESULTS

     Net income of $7,524,000 or $0.75 per share for the first six months of
fiscal 2003 compared to net income of $10,114,000 or $1.01 per share for the
same period last fiscal year. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2003
was $4,524,000 or $.45 per share as compared to $5,515,000 or $.55 per share for
the three months ended October 31, 2001. Revenues of $40,891,000 for the six
months ended October 31, 2002 were 8% below revenues of $44,617,000 in fiscal
2002. The decline in net income during the six months ended October 31, 2002 was
largely the result of the lower level of revenues, primarily resulting from a
19% decline in investment management fees and services revenues that resulted
from a decrease in average net asset values in the Value Line mutual funds. The
change in net asset values in the Value Line mutual funds was largely
attributable to the overall decline in the financial markets with the NASDAQ
index falling 21% during the six months ended October 31, 2002, representing a
74% decline from its all time high.

     As of October 31, 2002, total circulation for the Company's investment
publications rose 13% above the level at October 31, 2001. Combined circulation
of The Value Investment Survey, THE VALUE LINE INVESTMENT SURVEY FOR WINDOWS,
THE VALUE LINE RESEARCH CENTER, AND THE VALUE LINE 600 was 8% higher than the
prior year's circulation. Subscription revenues of $26,243,000 for the six
months ended October 31, 2002 were 1% below revenues for the same period of the
prior fiscal year. Subscription revenues of $13,139,000 for the second quarter
of fiscal 2003 were approximately equal to last year's revenues for the three
months ended October 31, 2001. Investment management fees and services revenues
of $14,648,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2002 were 19% below the
prior fiscal year's revenues of $18,109,000. The change in total subscription
and investment management fees and services revenues was primarily attributable
to the continued difficult financial market conditions.

     Operating expenses of $29,537,000 for the six months ended October 31, 2002
were comparable to last year's expenses of $30,040,000. Total advertising and
promotional expenses of $10,002,000 were approximately 1% below the prior year's
expenses. Salaries and employee benefits expenses of


                                       12
<PAGE>


$10,675,000 were 9% below expenses of $11,770,000 recorded in the prior fiscal
year. Production and distribution costs of $4,837,000 for the six months ended
October 31, 2002 were 13% above last year's expenses of $4,264,000. The increase
in production and distribution expenses resulted from an increase in
subscription circulation, an increase in U.S. postal rates, amortization costs
for new product development expenditures, and expenses related to restocking
product user guides. Office and administrative expenses of $4,023,000 were 3%
higher than last year's expenses of $3,919,000. The net increase in
administrative expenses compared to last year's resulted primarily from higher
insurance fees and depreciation expenses offset in part by a decline in rent
expenses.

     The Company's securities portfolios produced a gain of $1,518,000 for the
first six months of fiscal 2003 versus a gain of $2,435,000 for the same period
last fiscal year. The Company's trading portfolio produced losses of $945,000
during the six months ended October 31, 2002 versus losses of $5,140,000 during
the same period last fiscal year. Income from securities transactions for the
six months ended October 31, 2002 also included dividend and interest income of
$1,947,000 and capital gains of $529,000 from sales of securities from the
Company's long-term portfolio. This compares to dividend and interest income of
$1,470,000 and capital gains of $6,472,000 from sales of securities from the
Company's long-term portfolio for the same period last fiscal year.
