SUMMARY<sub>1</sub>

**Investment Objective(s)**

The fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth by investing primarily in the common stocks of growth companies.

**Fees and Expenses**

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the fund. **You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions or insurance contract fees and expenses, which are not reflected in the table and example below. If these additional fees and expenses were reflected, expenses shown would be higher.**

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Fees and Expenses of the Fund** | |
| **Annual fund operating expenses<br> (expenses that you pay each year as a<br> percentage of the value of your investment)** | **Annual fund operating expenses<br> (expenses that you pay each year as a<br> percentage of the value of your investment)** |
| Management fees | 0.63% |
| Other expenses | 0.21 |
| Total annual fund operating expenses | 0.84 |
| Fee waiver/expense reimbursement | (0.04)<sup>a</sup> |
| **Total annual fund operating expenses after fee <br> waiver/expense reimbursement** | **0.80** <sup>a</sup> |

---

<sup>a</sup> T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. has contractually agreed to indefinitely waive its fees and/or bear any expenses (excluding interest; expenses related to borrowings, taxes, and brokerage; nonrecurring, extraordinary expenses; acquired fund fees and expenses; and 12b-1 fees, if any) that would cause the fund's ratio of expenses to average daily net assets to exceed 0.80%. The agreement may only be terminated with approval by the fund's shareholders. Fees waived and expenses borne by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. are subject to reimbursement by the fund (or class'), provided no reimbursement will be made if it would result in the fund's (or class') expense ratio exceeding its applicable limitation at the time of the waiver/payment or reimbursement, whichever is lower. No reimbursement will be made more than three years after any waiver or payment.

**Example** This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods, that your investment has a 5% return each year, and that the fund's operating expenses remain the same. The example also assumes that any current expense limitation arrangement remains in place for the period noted in the previous table; therefore, the figures have been adjusted to reflect fee waivers or expense reimbursements only in the periods for which the expense limitation arrangement is expected to continue. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **1 Year** | **3 Years** | **5 Years** | **10 Years** |
| $82 | $255 | $444 | $990 |

---

**Portfolio Turnover** The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when the fund's shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the fund's portfolio turnover rate was 101.4% of the average value of its portfolio.

**Investments, Risks, and Performance**

**Principal Investment Strategies**

The fund invests primarily (at least 65% of its total assets) in common stocks of U.S. companies operating in those sectors of the economy that, in the adviser's view, are the fastest growing or have the greatest growth potential. While the fund generally takes a growth approach to stock selection, the fund may opportunistically invest in companies with either growth or value characteristics. Growing companies that are positioned to benefit from dynamic technological, social, medical, and business developments that help define the current U.S. economic landscape can be found across an array of sectors. The fund's allocation to sectors will generally reflect such factors as the overall revenue growth of the component companies in a sector and the sector's contribution to U.S. gross domestic product from year to year.

<u>T. ROWE PRICE</u> <u>2</u>

The fund can invest in companies of any size (or market capitalization). In selecting stocks, the adviser looks for many characteristics, typically including, but not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· earnings growth rates that generally exceed that of the average company in the Russell 3000 <sup>®</sup> Index;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· favorable company fundamentals, such as a strong balance sheet, sound business strategy,
and promising competitive positioning;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· effective management; and/or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· stock valuations, such as price/earnings or price/cash flow ratios, that seem reasonable
relative to the company's prospects.

At times, the fund may have a significant portion of its assets invested in the same economic sector, such as the information technology sector.

While most assets are typically invested in U.S. common stocks, the fund may invest in foreign stocks in keeping with its objective(s).

**Principal Risks**

As with any fund, there is no guarantee that the fund will achieve its objective(s). The fund's share price fluctuates, which means you could lose money by investing in the fund. The principal risks of investing in this fund, which may be even greater in unfavorable or uncertain market conditions, are summarized as follows:

**Stock investing:** Stocks generally fluctuate in value more than bonds and may decline significantly over short time periods. There is a chance that stock prices overall will decline because stock markets tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising and falling prices. The value of stocks held by the fund may decline due to general weakness or volatility in the stock markets in which the fund invests or because of factors that affect a particular company or industry.

**Investing style:** Because the fund may hold stocks with either growth or value characteristics, it could underperform other funds that take a strictly growth or value approach to investing when one style is currently in favor. Growth stocks tend to be more volatile than the overall stock market and can have sharp price declines as a result of earnings disappointments. Value stocks carry the risk that the market will not recognize their intrinsic value for a long time (or at all) or that they are actually appropriately priced at a low level.

**Market conditions:** The value of the fund's investments may decrease, sometimes rapidly or unexpectedly, due to factors affecting an issuer held by the fund, particular industries, or the overall securities markets. A variety of factors can increase the volatility of the fund's holdings and markets generally, including geopolitical developments (such as trade and tariff arrangements, sanctions, and cybersecurity attacks), recessions, inflation, rapid interest rate changes, war, military conflict, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, and outbreaks of infectious illnesses or other widespread public health issues (such as the coronavirus pandemic) and related governmental and public responses. Certain events may cause instability across global markets, including reduced liquidity and disruptions in trading markets, while some events may affect certain geographic regions, countries, sectors, and industries more significantly than others. Government intervention in markets may impact interest rates, market volatility, and security pricing. These adverse developments may cause broad declines in market value due to short-term market movements or for significantly longer periods during more prolonged market downturns.

**Sector exposure:** Issuers in the same economic sector may be similarly affected by economic or market events, making the fund more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that economic sector than funds that invest more broadly.

**Information technology sector:** Information technology companies face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, which may have an adverse effect on their profit margins. Like other technology companies, information technology companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources, or personnel.

**Foreign investing:** Non-U.S. securities tend to be more volatile and have lower overall liquidity and trading volume than investments in U.S. securities and may lose value because of adverse local, political, social, or economic developments overseas, or due to changes in the exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar. Further, securities of non-U.S. issuers are subject to trading markets with potential governmental interference, varying regulatory, auditing, and accounting standards, and settlement and clearance practices that differ from those of U.S. issuers. Investment in non-U.S. securities also carries currency risk. Any attempts to hedge currency risk could be unsuccessful. Such investments may have higher transaction costs compared with U.S. markets. Investments in emerging market countries are subject to greater risk and overall volatility than investments in developed markets.

**Portfolio turnover:** High portfolio turnover may adversely affect the fund's performance and increase transaction costs, which could increase the fund's expenses. High portfolio turnover may also result in the distribution of higher capital gains when compared with a fund with less active trading policies, which could have an adverse tax impact if the fund's shares are held in a taxable account.

Summary<sub>3</sub>

**Active management:** The fund's overall investment program and holdings selected by the fund's investment adviser may underperform the broad markets, relevant indices, or other funds with similar objectives and investment strategies.

**Cybersecurity breaches:** The fund could be harmed by intentional cyberattacks and other cybersecurity breaches, including unauthorized access to the fund's assets, confidential information, or other proprietary information. In addition, a cybersecurity breach could cause one of the fund's service providers or financial intermediaries to suffer unauthorized data access, data corruption, or loss of operational functionality.

**Performance**

The following performance information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the fund. The fund's performance information represents only past performance and is not necessarily an indication of future results. Figures shown reflect fees and expenses associated with an investment in the fund, but do not reflect insurance contract fees and expenses. If insurance contract fees and expenses were included, results would have been lower.

\* Effective June 21, 2026, Justin White will step down from his role on the fund and Peter Bates will become the fund's sole portfolio manager and sole chair of the fund's Investment Advisory Committee.

**Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares**

The fund is not sold directly to the general public but is instead offered as an underlying investment option for variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. Although the fund does not require a minimum amount for initial or subsequent purchases from insurance companies, your insurance company may impose investment minimums for your purchases of the fund.

You may purchase, redeem, or exchange shares of the fund on any day the New York Stock Exchange is open for business. You must purchase, redeem, and exchange shares through your insurance company.

**Tax Information**

The fund distributes any dividends and capital gains to its shareholders, which are the insurance company separate accounts that sponsor your variable annuity or variable life insurance contract. Variable product owners seeking to understand the tax consequences of their investment, including redemptions of fund shares and the impact of dividend and capital gains distributions by the fund, should consult with the insurance company that issued their variable product or refer to their variable annuity or variable life insurance contract prospectus.

**Payments to Insurance Companies, Broker-Dealers, and Other Financial Intermediaries**

The fund is generally available only through variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The fund and/or its related companies may make payments to a sponsoring insurance company or other financial intermediary for the sale of fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the insurance company or other financial intermediary to recommend the fund over another investment option or by influencing an insurance company to include the fund as an underlying investment option in a variable contract. The prospectus (or other offering document) for your variable contract may contain additional information about these payments. Ask your insurance company or financial intermediary, or visit your insurance company's or financial intermediary's website, for more information.
