Annual Report — December 31, 2023

To Our Shareholders,

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the net asset value (NAV) total return per Class A Share of The Gabelli Value 25 Fund was 8.7% compared with a total return of 26.3% for the Standard & Poor’s (S&P) 500 Index. Other classes of shares are available. See page 4 for performance information for all classes of shares.

Enclosed are the financial statements, including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2023.

Investment Objective and Strategy (Unaudited)

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to provide long term capital appreciation. The Fund’s investment strategy is to invest primarily in equity securities of companies that Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser) believes are undervalued and have the potential to achieve significant capital appreciation, overweighting its core 25 equity positions. The Adviser invests in companies whose securities are selling at a significant discount to their private market value (PMV). PMV is the value the Adviser believes informed investors would be willing to pay to acquire the entire company. If investor attention is focused on the underlying asset value of a company due to expected or actual developments or other catalysts, an investment opportunity to realize this PMV may exist. The Fund may invest in companies of any size and from time to time may invest a greater portion in companies with large, medium, or small market capitalizations.

As permitted by regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, paper copies of the Fund’s annual and semiannual shareholder reports will no longer be sent by mail, unless you specifically request paper copies of the reports. Instead, the reports will be made available on the Fund’s website (www.gabelli.com), and you will be notified by mail each time a report is posted and provided with a website link to access the report. If you already elected to receive shareholder reports electronically, you will not be affected by this change and you need not take any action. To elect to receive all future reports on paper free of charge, please contact your financial intermediary, or, if you invest directly with the Fund, you may call 800-422-3554 or send an email request to info@gabelli.com.

In selecting investments, the Adviser also considers the market price of the issuer’s securities, its balance sheet characteristics, and the perceived strength of its management. The Fund’s assets will be invested primarily in common stock. Many of the common stocks the Fund will buy will not pay dividends. These stocks will be bought for the potential that their prices will increase, providing capital appreciation for the Fund. The value of equity securities will fluctuate due to many factors, including the past and predicted earnings of the issuer, the quality of the issuer’s management, general market conditions, and the forecasts for the issuer’s industry and the value of the issuer’s assets.

Performance Discussion (Unaudited)

March saw Silicon Valley Bank become the second biggest bank failure in U.S. history after losses in its held-to-maturity bond portfolio precipitated a new twist on an old-fashioned bank run. Social media fanned depositor panic and online accounts facilitated withdrawals. New York based Signature Bank (which embarked on an ill considered expansion into cryptocurrency in recent years) failed the same weekend, and bank stocks broadly came under pressure as investors braced for who might be next. The Federal Reserve, FDIC, and Treasury Department acted swiftly, taking over both banks and making depositors whole. This raises the question: will uninsured deposits be guaranteed at other banks if they also fail? So far, this step has not been taken explicitly, though there has been discussion of raising the $250,000 FDIC limit for insured deposits. Trying to balance stability in the banking system while still burnishing its inflation fighting credentials, the Fed, following its 25 bps increase in the federal funds rate in February, ultimately decided to raise rates 25 bps again in March to 4.75%-5%. The Fed has a challenging tightrope walk in decisions on future rate hikes, which will depend on the situation of both inflation and the economy in the coming months.

Throughout the first quarter, inflation continued to be persistently high (+6% in February compared with a peak of +9.1% last June), and investors became concerned about how high rates may need to climb to achieve the Fed’s inflation target of 2%. At the same time, economic conditions worsened, stoking a fear of the “hard landing” the Fed has tried so hard to avoid. This initially led to a market decline as higher rates – all else being equal – resulted in lower equity prices due to a higher discount rate on future cash flows. Commodities also broadly fell, with WTI crude oil prices reaching the mid $60s, down from a peak of over $80 in the quarter and over $120 last year, and gold falling to just over $1,800 per ounce from over $1,950 earlier in the quarter. However, both rallied into the end of the quarter (especially after Saudi Arabia’s production cut announced on April 2nd) with oil and gold each sitting at ~$80 and ~$2,000, respectively. Finally, geopolitical tensions have persisted, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine passed its one year mark with no clear sign of the war being won by either side anytime soon, and the relationship between the U.S. and China continued to be marked by unease.

With the Great Financial Crisis still in recent memory, market reaction to the banking crisis was swift, with equities initially selling off and the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury Note falling from 4.1% at its peak to 3.5% at the end of the second quarter. Stabilization of the banking situation led to a market rally, as lower rates are good for equities generally, especially so-called growth stocks with more distant future cash flows. Mega cap tech stocks, which also benefited from being considered safe havens with large cash balances, were the main beneficiaries. As these stocks make up a large component of the S&P 500 Index, this dynamic ultimately offset woes for banks and more cyclical sectors during the quarter and gave the market a strong, if tenuous, start to the year, with the S&P 500 increasing 7.5%. Global equities rose in the second quarter (S&P 500 +9%) and for the first half of the year (+17%) as the market ascribed higher odds to ending the current interest rate hiking cycle with a soft landing (short, shallow recession) rather than a hard landing (long, deep recession). A June extension of the U.S. debt ceiling, limited fallout from the March bank failures, and efforts to temper a hot war in Ukraine and a cold war with China buoyed sentiment. Meanwhile, Artificial Intelligence injected some serious

Fear of Missing Out into the market leading to panic buying of tech stocks. Both inflation and growth are slowing, but with the economy mid-rotation, it is premature to call the landing.

The third quarter of 2023 was a choppy quarter for U.S. stock market indices against rising interest rates and decelerating macroeconomic activity. The Fed has been on hold since its last rate hike of 25bps to 5.25-5.50% on July 26th, but the recent rise in the 10-year Treasury yield has tightened monetary conditions further. The 10-year Treasury yield finished the quarter at 4.6%, up nearly 80bps, and climbed above 4.8% in early October. This has been driven by higher real interest rates, with real 10-year Treasury yields now above 2.25%. Driving higher real rates are a surprisingly resilient U.S. economy, at least on the employment front, concerns about large U.S. government deficits, and potentially less foreign interest in U.S. treasuries. Monthly inflation has continued to come down in recent months, with year-on-year core CPI prints of just over 4%; monthly sequential inflation data suggests annualized inflation is running closer to 3%. Still, the labor market remains reasonably tight, and rents and other services continue to inflate.

In a year with much discussion about media consolidation, Paramount Global (4.8% of net assets as of December 31, 2023) rose sharply in the fourth quarter as speculation focused on a potential sale of the company to Warner Bros. Discovery (1.3%), among others. Media peers Sony (8.1%), Sinclair (1.1%), and AMC Networks (0.2%) also contributed positively in the last quarter of the year. Greater confidence in an economic soft landing supported outlets for consumer spending like American Express (6.6%) and Ryman Hospitality (2.2%). Meanwhile, sagging oil and gas prices weighed on energy names including Dril-Quip (0.6%), Callon Petroleum (0.7%), and Halliburton (1.3%). Notably, early in 2024, Callon agreed to be acquired by Apache Corp. for stock.

Top contributors to the Fund’s performance in 2023 included: Sony Group Corp. (8.1%); Crane Co. (3.7%); and American Express Co. (6.6%).

Some of our weaker performing stocks during the year were: National Fuel Gas Co. (3.5%); Genuine Parts Co. (4.0%); and Diageo plc (3.4%).

(a)	Returns would have been lower had the Adviser not reimbursed certain expenses of the Fund. The Class A Share NAVs are used to calculate performance for the periods prior to the issuance of Class AAA Shares on April 30, 2010, Class C Shares on March 15, 2000, and Class I Shares on January 11, 2008. The actual performance of the Class C Shares would have been lower due to the additional fees and expenses associated with this class of shares. The actual performance of the Class AAA Shares and Class I Shares would have been higher due to lower expenses associated with these classes of shares. The Fund imposes a 2% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged within seven days of purchase.
(b)	Performance results include the effect of the maximum 5.75% sales charge at the beginning of the period.
(c)	The S&P 500 Index is a market capitalization weighted index of 500 large capitalization stocks commonly used to represent the U.S. equity market. Dividends are considered reinvested. You cannot invest directly in an index.
(d)	Assuming payment of the 1% maximum contingent deferred sales charge imposed on redemptions made within one year of purchase.

In the current prospectuses dated April 28, 2023, the gross expense ratios for Class AAA, A, C, and I Shares are 1.45%, 1.45%, 2.20%, and 1.20%, respectively, and the net expense ratio for Class I Shares after contractual reimbursements by Gabelli Funds, LLC, (the Adviser) is 1.00%. See page 12 for the expense ratios for the year ended December 31, 2023. The contractual reimbursement for Class I Shares is in effect through April 30, 2024. Class AAA and Class I Shares do not have a sales charge. The maximum sales charge for Class A Shares and Class C Shares is 5.75% and 1.00%, respectively.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited)

For the Six Month Period from July 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 Expense Table

We believe it is important for you to understand the impact of fees and expenses regarding your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of a fund. When a fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets, this figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The Expense Table below illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:

Actual Fund Return: This section provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this section to help you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period after any fee waivers and expense reimbursements. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the Fund’s actual return during the past six months, and the “Expenses Paid During Period” shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the Fund. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, 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 given for your Fund under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid during this period.

Hypothetical 5% Return: This section provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio. It assumes a hypothetical annualized return of 5% before expenses during the period shown. In this case – because the hypothetical return used is not the Fund’s actual return – the results do not apply to your investment and you cannot use the hypothetical account value and expense to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you

paid for the period. This example is useful in making comparisons of the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in 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, if any, which are described in the Prospectus. If these costs were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Therefore, the 5% hypothetical return is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. The “Annualized Expense Ratio” represents the actual expenses for the last six months and may be different from the expense ratio in the Financial Highlights which is for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Class I	$	1,000.00	$	1,020.16	1.00%	$	5.09

* Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the last six months multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year (184 days), then divided by 365.

The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization. The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc. was incorporated on July 20, 1989 in Maryland. The Fund is a diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The Fund’s primary objective is long term capital appreciation. The Fund commenced investment operations on September 29, 1989.

2. Significant Accounting Policies. As an investment company, the Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that may require the use of management estimates and assumptions in the preparation of its financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market’s official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the Board) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser).

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt obligations for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price, unless the Board determines such amount does not reflect the securities’ fair value, in which case these securities will be fair valued as determined by the Board. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations. Futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price of the exchange or board of trade on which the applicable contract is traded. OTC futures and options on futures for which market quotations are readily available will be valued by quotations received from a pricing service or, if no quotations are available from a pricing service, by quotations obtained from one of more dealers in the instrument in question by the Adviser.

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S. dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund’s investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

● Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;

● Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and

● Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Board’s determinations as to the fair value of investments).

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The summary of the Fund’s investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 2023 is as follows:

	Valuation Inputs
	Level 1 Quoted Prices		Level 2 Other Significant Observable Inputs		Total Market Value at 12/31/23
INVESTMENTS:
ASSETS (Market Value):
Common Stocks (a)	$	211,045,955		—	$	211,045,955
Rights (a)		—	$	3,500		3,500
Warrants (a)		3,000		—		3,000
U.S. Government Obligations		—		1,472,519		1,472,519
TOTAL INVESTMENTS – ASSETS	$	211,048,955	$	1,476,019	$	212,524,974

(a) Please refer to the Schedule of Investments for the industry classifications of these portfolio holdings.

The Fund held no Level 3 investments at December 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers among levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services – approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser – to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds are ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations or actual transaction prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common or preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, or fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. When fair valuing a security, factors to consider include recent prices of comparable

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These may include backtesting the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund 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.

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in securities for which the markets are restricted. Restricted securities include securities whose disposition is subject to substantial legal or contractual restrictions. The sale of restricted securities often requires more time and results in higher brokerage charges or dealer discounts and other selling expenses than the sale of securities eligible for trading on national securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter markets. Restricted securities may sell at a price lower than similar securities that are not subject to restrictions on resale. Securities freely saleable among qualified institutional investors under special rules adopted by the SEC may be treated as liquid if they satisfy liquidity standards established by the Board. The continued liquidity of such securities is not as well assured as that of publicly traded securities, and accordingly the Board will monitor their liquidity. At December 31, 2023, the Fund did not hold any restricted securities.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain/(loss) on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income

(including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method or amortized to earliest call date, if applicable. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of Expenses. Certain administrative expenses are common to, and allocated among, various affiliated funds. Such allocations are made on the basis of each fund’s average net assets or other criteria directly affecting the expenses as determined by the Adviser pursuant to procedures established by the Board.

In calculating the NAV per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, redemption fees, and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are borne solely by the class incurring the expense.

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. Permanent differences were primarily due to utilization of tax equalization and the tax treatment of currency gains and losses. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2023, reclassifications were made to increase paid-in capital by $1,636,467, with an offsetting adjustment to total distributable earnings.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was as follows:

	Year Ended December 31, 2023		Year Ended December 31, 2022
Distributions paid from:*
Ordinary income (inclusive of short term capital gains)	$	941,513	$	766,082
Net long term capital gains		24,308,993		36,608,249
Total distributions paid	$	25,250,506	$	37,374,331

* Total distributions paid differs from the Statement of Changes in Net Assets due to the utilization of equalization.

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute

16

The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

At December 31, 2023, the components of accumulated earnings/losses on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income	$	11,622
Net unrealized appreciation on investments and foreign currency translations		107,189,430
Total	$	107,201,052

At December 31, 2023, the temporary differences between book basis and tax basis net unrealized appreciation on investments were primarily due to the deferral of losses from wash sales for tax purposes.

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized appreciation at December 31, 2023:

	Cost		Gross Unrealized Appreciation		Gross Unrealized Depreciation			Net Unrealized Appreciation
Investments	$	105,327,520	$	120,142,252	$	(12,944,798	)	$	107,197,454

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of December 31, 2023, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund’s net assets or results of operations. The Fund’s federal and state tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain open, subject to examination. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund’s tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund’s portfolio, oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund’s business and affairs, and pays the compensation of all Officers and Directors of the Fund who are affiliated persons of the Adviser.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse expenses of Class I Shares to the extent necessary to maintain the total operating expenses (excluding brokerage, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes, and extraordinary expenses) at no more than 1.00% of the value of its average daily net assets. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Adviser reimbursed the Fund in the amount of $87,399. In addition, the Fund has agreed, during the three year period following any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser, to repay such amount to the extent, that after giving the effect to the repayment, such adjusted annualized total operating expenses of the Fund would not exceed 1.00% of the value of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class I.

17

The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

This contractual agreement is renewable annually and is in place until at least April 30, 2024. At December 31, 2023, the cumulative amount which the Fund may repay the Adviser is $260,847.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, expiring December 31, 2024	$	85,090
For the year ended December 31, 2022, expiring December 31, 2025		88,358
For the year ended December 31, 2023, expiring December 31, 2026		87,399
	$	260,847

4. Distribution Plan. The Fund’s Board has adopted a distribution plan (the Plan) for each class of shares, except for Class I Shares, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class AAA, Class A, and Class C Share Plans, payments are authorized to G.distributors, LLC (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Adviser, at annual rates of 0.25%, 0.25%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of those classes, the annual limitations under each Plan. Such payments are accrued daily and paid monthly.

5. Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the year ended December 31, 2023, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $13,645,211 and $47,828,909, respectively.

6. Transactions with Affiliates and Other Arrangements. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund paid $8,071 in brokerage commissions on security trades to G.research, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser.

Additionally, the Distributor retained a total of $530 from investors representing commissions (sales charges and underwriting fees) on sales and redemptions of Fund shares.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. The amount of such expenses paid through this directed brokerage arrangement during this period was $4,147.

The cost of calculating the Fund’s NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund accrued $45,000 in connection with the cost of computing the Fund’s NAV.

The Fund pays retainer and per meeting fees to Directors not affiliated with the Adviser, plus specified amounts to the Lead Director and Audit Committee Chairman. Directors are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Fund.

7. Capital Stock. The Fund offers four classes of shares – Class AAA Shares, Class A Shares, Class C Shares, and Class I Shares. Class AAA and Class I Shares are offered without a sales charge. Class A Shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75%. Class C Shares are subject to a 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge for one year after purchase.

The Fund imposes a redemption fee of 2.00% on all classes of shares that are redeemed or exchanged on or before the seventh day after the date of a purchase. The redemption fee is deducted from the proceeds otherwise payable to the redeeming shareholders and is retained by the Fund as an increase in paid-in capital. The redemption fees retained by the Fund during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, if any, can be found in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets under Redemption Fees.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) as of December 31, 2023, the related statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period December 31, 2023, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 2023 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2023, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2023, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Liquidity Risk Management Program (Unaudited)

In accordance with Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act,the Fund has established a liquidity risk management program (the LRM Program) to govern its approach to managing liquidity risk. The LRM Program is administered by the Liquidity Committee (the Committee), which is comprised of members of Gabelli Funds, LLC management. The Board has designated the Committee to administer the LRM Program.

The LRM Program’s principal objectives include supporting the Fund’s compliance with limits on investments in illiquid assets and mitigating the risk that the Fund will be unable to meet its redemption obligations in a timely manner. The LRM Program also includes elements that support the management and assessment of liquidity risk, including an annual assessment of factors that influence the Fund’s liquidity and the monthly classification and re-classification of certain investments that reflect the Committee’s assessment of their relative liquidity under current market conditions.

At a meeting of the Board held on May 16, 2023, the Board received a written report from the Committee regarding the design and operational effectiveness of the LRM Program. The Committee determined, and reported to the Board, that the LRM Program is reasonably designed to assess and manage the Fund’s liquidity risk and has operated adequately and effectively since its implementation. The Committee reported that there were no liquidity events that impacted the Fund or its ability to timely meet redemptions without dilution to existing shareholders. The Committee noted that the Fund is primarily invested in highly liquid securities and, accordingly, continues to be exempt from the requirement to determine a “highly liquid investment minimum” as defined in the Rule 22e-4. Because of that continued qualification for the exemption, the Fund has not adopted a “highly liquid investment minimum” amount. The Committee further noted that while changes to the LRM Program were made during the Review Period and reported to the Board, no material changes were made to the LRM Program as a result of the Committee’s annual review.

There can be no assurance that the LRM Program will achieve its objectives in the future. Please refer to the Fund’s Prospectus for more information regarding its exposure to liquidity risk and other principal risks to which an investment in the Fund may be subject.

The Gabelli Value 25 Fund Inc.

2023 TAX NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited)

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund paid to shareholders ordinary income distributions (comprised of net investment income and short term capital gains) totaling $0.0323, $0.0327, and $0.0883 per share for Class AAA, Class A, and Class I, respectively, and long term capital gains totaling $24,308,993 or the maximum allowable. The distribution of long term capital gains has been designated as a capital gain dividend by the Fund’s Board of Directors. For the year ended December 31, 2023, 100% of the ordinary income distribution qualifies for the dividends received deduction available to corporations. The Fund designates 100% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified dividend income pursuant to the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003. The Fund designates 10.10% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified interest income pursuant to the Tax Relief, Unemployment Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010. The Fund designates 100% of the ordinary income distribution as qualified short term gain pursuant to the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004.

U.S. Government Income:

The percentage of the ordinary income distribution paid by the Fund during 2023 which was derived from U.S. Treasury securities was 9.44%. Such income is exempt from state and local tax in all states. However, many states, including New York and California, allow a tax exemption for a portion of the income earned only if a mutual fund has invested at least 50% of its assets at the end of each quarter of the Fund’s fiscal year in U.S. Government securities. The Gabelli Value 25 Fund did not meet this strict requirement in 2023. The percentage of U.S. Government securities held as of December 31, 2023 was 0.7%. Due to the diversity in state and local tax law, it is recommended that you consult your personal tax adviser as to the applicability of the information provided to your specific situation.

All designations are based on financial information available as of the date of this annual report and, accordingly, are subject to change. For each item, it is the intention of the Fund to designate the maximum amount permitted under the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.

The Audit Committee (“Committee”) of the registrant is responsible for pre-approving (i) all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the registrant and (ii) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the Adviser, Gabelli Funds, LLC, and any affiliate of Gabelli Funds, LLC (“Gabelli”) that provides services to the registrant (a “Covered Services Provider”) if the independent registered public accounting firm’s engagement related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant. The Committee may delegate its responsibility to pre-approve any such audit and permissible non-audit services to the Chairperson of the Committee, and the Chairperson must report to the Committee, at its next regularly scheduled meeting after the Chairperson’s pre-approval of such services, his or her decision(s). The Committee may also establish detailed pre-approval policies and procedures for pre-approval of such services in accordance with applicable laws, including the delegation of some or all of the Committee’s pre-approval responsibilities to the other persons (other than Gabelli or the registrant’s officers). Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the registrant at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (ii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee or Chairperson prior to the completion of the audit.

(e)(2) The percentage of services described in each of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X are as follows:

(b) N/A

(c) 0%

(d) N/A

(f) The percentage of hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees was less than fifty percent.

(g) The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrant’s accountant for services rendered to the registrant, and rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two fiscal years of the registrant was $0 for 2022 and $0 for 2023.

(h) The registrant’s audit committee of the board of directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
