Market Review: A challenging period
The six-month period ending June 30, 2010 was a challenging one. The markets overall declined during the period, with the S&P 500 Index losing 6.65%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average declined 5.00%. Despite what seemed to be a global recovery in 2009, developments in the Eurozone, beginning with the budget deficit in Greece, combined with signals from emerging markets, like China, to cause a global pullback.
Strategic Review and Outlook: A period of change
For the semiannual period ended June 30, 2010, the Fund underperformed its benchmark. Stock selection in consumer staples made the leading positive contributions to performance. Additionally, stock selection in information technology and stock selection and sector weighting in energy also helped relative performance. Conversely, stock selection and sector weighting in financials, healthcare and telecomm services were the principal detractors from relative performance.
Although we expect the market to remain difficult in the near term, we are comfortable with our proactive long-term investment process going forward. Our investment process relies on a systematic quantitative approach that takes into account historical results as well as near- and long-term views. In further detail, the process can be broken into four steps: 1. Research supporting the five financial models and blended risk model; 2. Construction of Expected Returns and Optimizations: 3. Implementation; 4. Risk/Return Monitoring and Attribution Analysis. Research is conducted to identify new sources of alpha, improve existing factors, and strengthen risk control. Research on prospective

factors is sourced from academic papers, sell side research, and internal dialogue. Research ideas are always based on sound financial principles and economic intuition. In step two, the signals from the five financial models are blended to construct the expected returns. The expected returns, the blended risk model, transaction costs, investment objectives, as well as client-specific constraints are then fed into a proprietary optimizer to determine optimal portfolio weights. Then the optimal weights from the optimizer are used for trading and rebalancing of the portfolio. The proprietary in-house risk monitoring system checks the optimal portfolio prior to trading. Once the optimal portfolio passes the appropriate checks, the trades are implemented. Lastly, all monitoring is done on an intraday basis and is relative to the portfolio's specific benchmark.
Effective May 3, 2010, Mika Toikka* joined the Credit Suisse Quantitative Equities Group and serves as the lead manager of the Fund.

Returns represent past performance and include change in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Past performance cannot guarantee future results. The current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the figures shown. Returns and share price will fluctuate, and redemption value may be more or less than original cost. The performance results do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Performance information current to the most recent month-end is available at www.credit-suisse.com/us.
The annualized gross expense ratios are 1.79% for Common Class shares, 1.79% for Class A shares, 2.55% for Class B shares and 2.54% for Class C shares.

Information About Your Fund's Expenses
As an investor of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: ongoing expenses and transaction costs. Ongoing expenses include management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. Examples of transaction costs include sales charges (loads), redemption fees and account maintenance fees, which are not shown in this section and which would result in higher total expenses. The following table is intended to help you understand your ongoing expenses of investing in the Fund and to help you compare these expenses with the ongoing expenses of investing in other mutual funds. The table is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the six month period ended June 30, 2010.
The table illustrates your Fund's expenses in two ways:
• Actual Fund Return. This helps you estimate the actual dollar amount of ongoing expenses paid on a $1,000 investment in the Fund using the Fund's actual return during the period. To estimate the expenses you paid over the period, 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 in the "Expenses Paid per $1,000" line under the share class you hold.
• Hypothetical 5% Fund Return. This helps you to compare your Fund's ongoing expenses with those of other mutual funds using the Fund's actual expense ratio and a hypothetical rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. Examples using a 5% hypothetical fund return may be found in the shareholder reports of other mutual funds. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period.
Please note that the expenses shown in these tables are meant to highlight your ongoing expenses only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) or redemption fees. If these transaction costs had been included, your costs would have been higher. The "Expenses Paid per $1,000" line of the tables is useful in comparing ongoing expenses only and will not help you determine the relative total expenses of owning different funds.

The "Expenses Paid per $1,000" and the "Annualized Expense Ratios" in the tables are based on actual expenses paid by the Fund during the period, net of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. If those fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements had not been in effect, the Fund's actual expenses would have been higher.

Credit Suisse Large Cap Blend Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2010 (unaudited)
Note 1. Organization
Credit Suisse Large Cap Blend Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified, open-end management investment company that seeks long-term appreciation of capital. The Fund was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on July 31, 1998.
The Fund currently offers Common Class shares, Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares. The Fund's Common Class shares are closed to new investors, with certain exceptions as set forth in the prospectus. Each class of shares represents an equal pro rata interest in the Fund, except that they bear different expenses, which reflect the differences in the range of services provided to them. Class A shares are sold subject to a front-end sales charge of 5.75%. Class B shares are sold subject to a contingent deferred sales charge which declines from 4.00% to zero depending on the period of time the shares are held. Class C shares are sold subject to a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% if the shares are redeemed within the first year of purchase.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
A) SECURITY VALUATION — The net asset value of the Fund is determined daily as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the "Exchange") on each day the Exchange is open for business. Equity investments are valued at market value, which is generally determined using the closing price on the exchange or market on which the security is primarily traded at the time of valuation (the "Valuation Time"). If no sales are reported, equity investments are generally valued at the most recent bid quotation as of the Valuation Time or at the lowest asked quotation in the case of a short sale of securities. Debt securities with a remaining maturity greater than 60 days are valued in accordance with the price supplied by a pricing service, which may use a matrix, formula or other objective method that takes into consideration market indices, yield curves and other specific adjustments. Debt obligations that will mature in 60 days or less are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates market value, unless it is determined that using this method would not represent fair value. Investments in mutual funds are valued at the mutual fund's closing net asset value per share on the day of valuation. Securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the Fund's Valuation Time but after the close of the securities' primary markets, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by, or under the direction of, the Board of Directors under procedures established by
28
Credit Suisse Large Cap Blend Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2010 (unaudited)
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
the Board of Directors. The Fund may utilize a service provided by an independent third party which has been approved by the Board of Directors to fair value certain securities. When fair-value pricing is employed, the prices of securities used by a fund to calculate its net asset value may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), the Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. In accordance with GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. GAAP established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a part icular valuation technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
• Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
• Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of June 30, 2010 in valuing the Fund's investments carried at value:
Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | ||||||||||||||||
Investments in Securities | |||||||||||||||||||
Common Stocks | $ | 31,246,909 | $ | — | $ | — | $ | 31,246,909 | |||||||||||

Other Financial Instruments* | — | — | — | — | |||||||||||||||
$ | 35,513,110 | $ | 878,000 | $ | — | $ | 36,391,110 |
*Other financial instruments include futures, forwards and swap contracts.
Effective January 1, 2010, the Fund adopted FASB amendments to authoritative guidance which requires the Fund to disclose details of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 measurements and the reasons for the transfers. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, there were no significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2.
B) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES — Effective January 1, 2009, the Fund adopted amendments to authoritative guidance on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities which require that the Fund disclose (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and hedging activities are accounted for, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedging activities affect a fund's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The Fund has not entered into any derivative or hedging activities during the period covered by this report.
C) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME — Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Certain expenses are class-specific expenses and vary by class. Income, expenses (excluding class-specific expenses) and realized/unrealized gains/losses are allocated proportionately to each class of shares based upon the relative net asset value of the outstanding shares of that class. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes.
D) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS — Dividends from net investment income and distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. However, to the extent that a net realized capital gain can be reduced by a capital loss carryforward, such gain will not be distributed. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
E) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES — No provision is made for federal taxes as it is the Fund's intention to continue to qualify for and elect the tax treatment applicable to regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders, which will be sufficient to relieve it from federal income and excise taxes.
The Fund adopted the authoritative guidance for uncertainty in income taxes and recognizes a tax benefit or liability from an uncertain position only if it is more likely than not that the position is sustainable based solely on its technical merits and consideration of the relevant taxing authority's widely understood administrative practices and procedures. The Fund has reviewed its current tax positions and has determined that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund's financial statements. The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
F) USE OF ESTIMATES — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
G) SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS — The Fund, together with other funds/portfolios advised by Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC ("Credit Suisse"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Credit Suisse Group AG, pools available cash into a short-term variable rate time deposit issued by State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB"), the Fund's custodian. The short-term time deposit issued by SSB is a variable rate account classified as a short-term investment.
H) FUTURES — The Fund may enter into futures contracts to the extent permitted by its investment policies and objectives. The Fund may use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against changes in equities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit cash and/or pledge U.S. Government securities as initial margin. Subsequent payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying instrument, are made or received by the Fund each day (daily variation margin) and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are closed. When the contracts are closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transactions and the Fund's basis in the contract. Risks of entering into futures contracts for hedging purposes include the possibility that a change in the value of the
31
Credit Suisse Large Cap Blend Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2010 (unaudited)
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying instruments. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since futures are exchange traded and the exchange's clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. In addition, the purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that the Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit and subsequent payments may be required for a futures transaction. At June 30, 2010, the Fund had no open futures contracts.
I) SECURITIES LENDING — Loans of securities are required at all times to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of domestic securities on loan (including any accrued interest thereon) and 105% of the market value of foreign securities on loan (including any accrued interest thereon). Cash collateral received by the Fund in connection with securities lending activity may be pooled together with cash collateral for other funds/portfolios advised by Credit Suisse and may be invested in a variety of investments, including funds advised by SSB, the Fund's securities lending agent, or money market instruments. However, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
SSB has been engaged by the Fund to act as the Fund's securities lending agent. The Fund's securities lending arrangement provides that the Fund and SSB will share the net income earned from securities lending activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2010, total earnings from the Fund's investment in cash collateral received in connection with securities lending arrangements was $3,615, of which $1,156 was rebated to borrowers (brokers). The Fund retained $1,968 in income from the cash collateral investment, and SSB, as lending agent, was paid $491. Securities lending income is accrued as earned.
Note 3. Transactions with Affiliates and Related Parties
Credit Suisse serves as investment adviser for the Fund. For its investment advisory services, Credit Suisse is entitled to receive a fee from the Fund at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, investment advisory fees earned and voluntarily waived were as follows:
Gross Advisory Fee | Waiver | Net Advisory Fee | |||||||||

Note 3. Transactions with Affiliates and Related Parties
Fee waivers and expense reimbursements are voluntary and may be discontinued by Credit Suisse at any time.
Credit Suisse Asset Management Securities, Inc. ("CSAMSI"), an affiliate of Credit Suisse, and SSB serve as co-administrators to the Fund. For its co-administrative services, CSAMSI currently receives a fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.09% of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, co-administrative services fees earned by CSAMSI were $15,612.
For its co-administrative services, SSB receives a fee, exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses, calculated in total for all the Credit Suisse funds/portfolios co-administered by SSB and allocated based upon the relative average net assets of each fund/portfolio, subject to an annual minimum fee. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, co-administrative services fees earned by SSB (including out-of-pocket expenses) were $20,164.
In addition to serving as the Fund's co-administrator, CSAMSI currently serves as distributor of the Fund's shares. Pursuant to distribution plans adopted by the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, CSAMSI receives fees for its distribution services. For the Common Class and Class A shares of the Fund, the fee is calculated at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets. For the Class B and Class C shares of the Fund, the fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% of average daily net assets.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, CSAMSI and its affiliates advised the Fund that it retained $14,786 from commissions earned on the sale of the Fund's Class A shares.
Merrill Corporation ("Merrill"), an affiliate of Credit Suisse, has been engaged by the Fund to provide certain financial printing services. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, Merrill was paid $9,113 for its services by the Fund.
Note 4. Line of Credit
The Fund, together with other funds/portfolios advised by Credit Suisse (collectively, the "Participating Funds"), participates in a committed, unsecured line of credit facility ("Credit Facility") for temporary or emergency purposes with SSB. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Participating Funds pay an aggregate commitment fee on the average unused amount of the Credit Facility, which is allocated among the Participating Funds in such manner as is determined by the governing Boards of the Participating Funds. In addition,
33

Note 4. Line of Credit
the Participating Funds pay interest on borrowings at either the Overnight Federal Funds rate or the Overnight LIBOR rate plus a spread. At June 30, 2010, and during the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Fund had no borrowings under the Credit Facility.
Note 5. Purchases and Sales of Securities
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term investments) were $82,377,715 and $82,292,442, respectively.
At June 30, 2010, the identified cost for federal income tax purposes, as well as the gross unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost, gross unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value and the net unrealized depreciation from investments were $37,560,799, $1,074,475, $(2,244,164) and $(1,169,689), respectively.
Note 6. Capital Share Transactions

Some of the shareholders are omnibus accounts, which hold shares on behalf of individual shareholders.
Note 7. Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Fund may provide general indemnifications pursuant to certain contracts and organizational documents. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote.

Note 8. Subsequent Events
Effective June 30, 2009, the Fund adopted the FASB amendments to general standards on accounting for and disclosures of subsequent events. Management has evaluated the possibility of subsequent events existing in the Fund's financial statements through August 25, 2010.
On May 3, 2010, the Board of Trustees/Directors of each of Credit Suisse Large Cap Growth Fund, Credit Suisse Capital Funds, on behalf of its series, Credit Suisse Large Cap Value Fund and Credit Suisse Mid-Cap Core Fund, Inc. (collectively, the "Acquired Funds" and each, an "Acquired Fund"), approved the proposed reorganization of the applicable Acquired Fund (each, a "Reorganization") whereby all of the assets and liabilities of such Acquired Fund would be transferred to Credit Suisse Large Cap Blend Fund, Inc. (the "Acquiring Fund") in exchange for shares of common stock of the Acquiring Fund. Each Acquired Fund would then be liquidated and shares of common stock of the Acquiring Fund would be distributed to the shareholders of the Acquired Fund.
Each Reorganization is subject to the completion of certain conditions, including the approval of the relevant Acquired Fund's shareholders. Approval of any one Reorganization is not contingent on the approval of any other Reorganization. Proxy materials describing each proposed Reorganization have been mailed to shareholders of each of the Acquired Funds in anticipation of a special meeting of shareholders to be held on August 27, 2010. If a Reorganization is completed, each shareholder of the Acquired Fund would become a shareholder of the Acquiring Fund and would receive on a tax-free basis shares of common stock of the Acquiring Fund with the same aggregate net asset value as their shares of common stock of the Acquired Fund. With the exception of Advisor Class shareholders, Acquired Fund shareholders will receive the same class of shares of the Acquiring Fund that they held of the Acquired Fund prior to the Reorganization; Advisor Class shareholders will receive Class A shares of the Acquiring Fund (load waived). If a Reorganization is approved by shareholders, it is expected that the Reorganization would take effect in mid-September 2010.
