Report Highlights
- --------------------
Small-Cap Value Fund
. Stocks continued to advance, and, in the second quarter, small-cap stocks
finally returned to favor.
. Despite their recent surge, small-company issues lagged the broad market
for the half.
. The fund's six-month return was positive but trailed its benchmarks, which
had greater exposure to the strong technology sector.
. Small-cap companies continue to be taken over at a notable pace, reflecting
their unusually low absolute and relative valuations.
. Small-cap stocks remain inexpensive compared with the broad market, and we
are optimistic that their rebound will persist.

FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS
The stock market enjoyed another positive six months during the first half of
1999. After a long time in the wilderness, small-cap stocks became market
leaders in the second quarter, but for the entire half, they lagged behind their
larger brethren. The technology sector remained strong, although the frenzied
rally in Internet-related stocks cooled somewhat in the second quarter.
PERFORMANCE COMPARISON

Small-Cap Value Fund 4.38% -10.93%

The Small-Cap Value Fund declined over 11% from year-end to its low in late
March even as the same stocks that had led the markets in 1998--large caps,
technology, Internet, and growth issues--continued their winning ways. This
slide in price is evident in the fund's negative 12-month return, and the
market's strong bias against value stocks during this period is evident both in
the absolute return and in the unfavorable benchmark comparisons.
However, just when it seemed that everyone in the country would open an on-line
account to trade Internet stocks, market sentiment changed in early April. Value
stocks, cyclicals, real estate investment trusts, and other out-of-favor issues
reversed direction. The fund rose nearly 18% from its March low to the end of
June as the small-cap sector finally turned positive. While the Russell 2000
Index of small-cap stocks still has not overtaken the S&P 500 Stock Index for
the year, the results of the past three months were sufficiently positive to
encourage long-suffering small stock investors about the future. Your fund
gained 16.68% in the second quarter but could not close the year-to-date gap
versus competitors with growth stock-oriented portfolios.
Small-cap stocks are always subject to swings in market leadership--sometimes
favorable, sometimes unfavorable--but over time their impact on performance is
muted. For the past 5- and 10-year periods ended June 30, the fund has provided
average annual returns of 13.64% and 13.26%, respectively.

Portfolio Activity
As noted elsewhere in this report, the fund has experienced record takeover
activity in the past nine months. In fact, five of the 10 largest sales during
the first half of 1999 involved companies that were acquisition targets:
Meridian Industrial Trust, Unitog, Rival, American Safety Razor, and Juno
Lighting. Juno's exit was particularly noteworthy because it had been a
portfolio company since the fund's inception in 1988. During that time, the
company's earnings and stock price doubled and its dividend quadrupled. Unlike
some companies whose takeover is eagerly greeted, we were sorry to see Juno go.
On the purchase side, we initiated positions in Triad Guaranty, TriStar
Aerospace, Packaged Ice, and Resolute Limited. Triad is a mortgage insurer, one
of a handful of public companies whose business is to provide credit enhancement
to residential mortgages that would otherwise be considered too risky for
preferred rates. A modest slowdown in the industry's growth led the stock to
fall 70% from its high even though the company has yet to report a decline in
profits. We were only too happy to buy at a low valuation when others bailed
out.
Packaged Ice is one of the most intriguing companies we have seen in years. The
firm has developed a patented labor-free bagging device that, when combined with

INFORMATION ON YEAR-END DISTRIBUTIONS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To help you with tax planning, we try to give you a good idea of the per-share
income and capital gain amounts our funds may distribute near year-end. In late
October, we will provide estimates of these amounts, which will be paid on
December 16, 1999, to shareholders of record on December 14. These preliminary
numbers will be included in The Price Report mailing to shareholders in late
October and will also be available on our Web site--www.troweprice.com.
We hope that these preliminary numbers will be useful to you in approximating
the income and capital gains taxes you may pay on distributions to taxable
accounts. If your fund distributed any capital gains earlier in 1999, you can
find the amounts on your statements and should include them in your tax planning
calculations. Please keep in mind that the numbers are not final and are likely
to be revised before the December 14 declaration and record date. As the fall
progresses, you may want to check our Web site for revisions.

that, when combined with a freezer unit, makes and also bags cubed ice for sale
in supermarkets. This mini ice factory is a boon to supermarkets, a hit with
consumers, a profitable machine for Packaged Ice, and a scourge to the company's
competitors. Packaged Ice faces the usual small-company issues of execution of
its business plan and access to inexpensive capital, but its growth potential
appears unusually large.
AN ACQUISITION BINGE
In our last report to you, we noted that year-end valuations for small companies
(as represented by the Russell 2000) had reached 20-year lows versus larger
companies (represented by the S&P 500). For example, the relative P/E ratio,
which had typically ranged between 1.0 and 1.5 from 1979 through 1997, had
fallen to 0.8 by the end of 1998. During the early part of 1999 the ratio
remained well below its historical average level even when considering the
rebound that small stocks enjoyed during the second quarter.
While the average investor fled from small-cap stocks in 1998 and the early part
of 1999, Corporate America went on an acquisition binge. We reported in January
that the fund had experienced 12 takeover announcements of portfolio companies
from October 28, 1998, to January 11, 1999. The pace has slowed a bit but has
remained well above average so far this year. Through July 2, 1999, 12 takeovers
for our companies have been announced, twice the pace from 1995 to 1997.
Most of the merger proposals have come from larger companies (including such
well-known firms as GE, Finova, Rohm & Haas, and Illinois Tool Works), but we
have also seen activity from leveraged buyout (LBO) firms. LBO partnerships
depend on high-yield debt to leverage their scarce equity in funding an
acquisition, and they cannot afford to overpay for deals. The fact that they
have been active in our sector means the companies they look to acquire are
inexpensive on their own merits, not just relative to larger firms.
I find it interesting that the takeovers that have been announced have involved
companies from a broad sweep of industries. They range from financial (Sirrom
Capital) to industrial (Haskel International), consumer product (American Safety
Razor) business services (Unitog), technology (Optek Technology), and energy
services (Newpark Resources). In most cases, the premiums offered over the
market

<PAGE>
price have exceeded 30%. And unlike the 1980s when hostile takeovers and
bidding wars were common, only one of our 12 announced deals this year has
sparked a rival bid.
I believe that, on balance, acquisitions are good for the fund. They generally
enhance results in the short term. They encourage other company managements to
work harder creating shareholder value to boost their company's stock price. And
they facilitate the movement of capital, labor, and creative ideas that has
proven so positive for the growth of our economy.
A VIEW ON THE YEAR 2000 ISSUE
By now, most of us have become thoroughly educated on the Year 2000 (Y2K)
problem--the potential for computers that identify years with two digits instead
of four to mistake 2000 for 1900, and, therefore, fail to perform necessary
functions unless modified. T. Rowe Price has been taking steps to assure that
its computer systems and processes will function in 2000 and has communicated
our progress to you. I want to address a different Y2K issue, what President
Franklin Roosevelt might have referred to as "the fear of Y2K."
It is my personal opinion that the U.S. will move into January 2000 with
relative ease. That opinion is based on discussions with company managements
about their Y2K preparations and on the behavior of individuals and companies
leading up to the event. I find it instructive that most companies we talk to
are well past their peak spending on Y2K remediation, the process of fixing
software code and testing systems. In fact, firms that specialize in information
technology consulting have seen their business drop precipitously over the past
six months from admittedly high levels in 1998. It seems that most of the heavy
work has been completed, and that companies are, on balance, well positioned to
finish their Y2K work on time.
Notwithstanding this positive position, many investors I talk to believe there
will be a Y2K problem in January, and that stocks will decline later this year
in anticipation of the event. Even those who don't believe our society will
suffer next year still fear the stock market will fall during the fourth quarter
because of how other investors will react. In essence, the fear of the problem
may be worse than the problem itself.
4
<PAGE>
If my view that Y2K will be a relative nonevent in the U.S. is correct, then any
drop in the stock market this fall triggered by fear of Y2K could lead to some
very attractive buying opportunities.
Outlook
We entered the year thinking it would be tough for the overall stock market to
approach its 1998 results. So far we've been surprised at the resilience of
large-cap stocks in the face of rising interest rates and sometimes uncertain
corporate profits. But the recent rebound in small-caps has been less
surprising: they are still very inexpensive relative to big companies and
consequently are being bought at a rapid rate.
With the caveat that Y2K is still ahead of us and may prove to be a short-term
market risk, we have a positive view of the opportunities in our small-cap value
sector. If investor attention in this area picks up, we see good potential for
favorable returns over the next 12 to 18 months.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
T. Rowe Price Small-Cap Value Fund, Inc. (the fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management
investment company and commenced operations on June 30, 1988.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for the investment company
industry; these principles may require the use of estimates by fund
management.
Valuation Equity securities listed or regularly traded on a securities
exchange are valued at the last quoted sales price on the day the
valuations are made. A security which is listed or traded on more than one
exchange is valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the
primary market for such security. Listed securities not traded on a
particular day and securities regularly traded in the over-the-counter
market are valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices. Other
equity securities are valued at a price within the limits of the latest bid
and asked prices deemed by the Board of Directors, or by persons delegated
by the Board, best to reflect fair value.
Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market and are
valued at a price deemed best to reflect fair value as quoted by dealers
who make markets in these securities or by an independent pricing service.
Investments in mutual funds are valued at the closing net asset value per
share of the mutual fund on the day of valuation.
For purposes of determining the fund's net asset value per share, the U.S.
dollar value of all assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign
currencies is determined by using the mean of the bid and offer prices of
such currencies against U.S. dollars quoted by a major bank.
Assets and liabilities for which the above valuation procedures are
inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair
value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the
officers of the fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.
Affiliated Companies As defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, an
affiliated company is one in which the fund owns at least 5% of the
outstanding voting securities.

<PAGE>
T. ROWE PRICE SMALL-CAP VALUE FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Currency Translation Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the reporting period.
Purchases and sales of securities and income and expenses are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the dates of such
transactions. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on realized
and unrealized security gains and losses is reflected as a component of
such gains and losses.
Premiums and Discounts Premiums and discounts on debt securities are
amortized for both financial reporting and tax purposes.
Other Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses
are reported on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and
distributions to shareholders are recorded by the fund on the ex-dividend
date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with federal income tax regulations and may differ from those determined in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Expenses paid
indirectly reflect credits earned on daily, uninvested cash balances at the
custodian, used to reduce the fund's custody charges.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Other Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term
securities, aggregated $32,856,000 and $272,733,000, respectively, for the
six months ended June 30, 1999.
NOTE 3 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
No provision for federal income taxes is required since the fund intends to
continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of
its taxable income.
At June 30, 1999, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes
was substantially the same as for financial reporting and totaled
$1,155,110,000. Net unrealized gain aggregated $284,964,000 at period-end,
of which $450,390,000 related to appreciated investments and $165,426,000
to depreciated investments.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The investment management agreement between the fund and T. Rowe Price
Associates, Inc. (the manager) provides for an annual investment management
fee, of which $771,000 was payable at June 30, 1999. The fee is computed
daily and paid monthly, and consists of an individual fund fee equal to
0.35% of average daily net assets and a group fee. The group fee is based
on the combined assets of certain mutual funds sponsored by the manager or
Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc. (the group). The group fee rate
ranges from 0.48% for the first $1 billion of assets to 0.30% for assets in
excess of $80 billion. At June 30, 1999, and for the six months then ended,
the effective annual group fee rate was 0.32%. The fund pays a pro-rata
share of the group fee based on the ratio of its net assets to those of the
group.
In addition, the fund has entered into agreements with the manager and two
wholly owned subsidiaries of the manager, pursuant to which the fund
receives certain other services. The manager computes the daily share price
and maintains the financial records of the fund. T. Rowe Price Services,
Inc. is the fund's transfer and dividend disbursing agent and provides
shareholder and administrative services to the fund. T. Rowe Price
Retirement Plan Services, Inc. provides subaccounting and recordkeeping
services for certain retirement accounts invested in the fund. The fund
incurred expenses pursuant to these related party agreements totaling
approximately $1,443,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, of which
$286,000 was payable at period-end.
The fund may invest in the Reserve Investment Fund and Government Reserve
Investment Fund (collectively, the Reserve Funds), open-end management
investment companies managed by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. The Reserve
Funds are offered as cash management options only to mutual funds and other
accounts managed by T. Rowe Price and its affiliates and are not available
to the public. The Reserve Funds pay no investment management fees.
Distributions from the Reserve Funds to the fund for the six months ended
June 30, 1999, totaled $732,000 and are reflected as interest income in the
accompanying Statement of Operations.
