About T. Rowe Price Equity Income Fund

The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities with a track record of paying dividends. The fund's managers consider a company to have a track record of paying dividends if the security has paid a dividend within the past 12 months. The adviser generally seeks investments in large-capitalization companies.
