Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
During the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, financial markets worldwide climbed, despite a less-than-ideal global economic backdrop. In the United States, the economy grew at a disappointing annual pace of 2.7% or less, and unemployment remained stubbornly high — dropping below 8% in September 2012 for the first time in more than three years. A pickup in the U.S. housing market and improved consumer sentiment, however, offered some encouragement. By contrast, economies in the U.K., European Union and many emerging markets weakened, pressured by the sovereign debt crisis in Europe and signs of slowing growth in China.
Financial markets responded positively, as central banks in the United States and Europe undertook stimulus measures aimed at averting further economic deterioration. Last fall, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the Fed) initiated “Operation Twist,” a program aimed at lowering borrowing costs for consumers and businesses, while the European Central Bank (ECB) put in place a long-term refinancing operation giving struggling eurozone banks access to very low interest-rate, three-year loans. By the New Year, the U.S. economy was showing signs of improvement and the fiscal situation in Europe was starting to stabilize, buoying the financial markets. However, investors grew risk-averse in the second quarter, as U.S. economic momentum faded and the sovereign debt crisis in Europe deepened. In the summer, markets benefited, as investors correctly anticipated more monetary stimulus measures in the United States and additional efforts in Europe to address the sovereign debt crisis. The ECB subsequently pledged to do whatever was necessary to save the euro and outlined an aggressive government bond repurchase program to help fiscally strapped eurozone countries. In the United States, the Fed announced a third round of U.S. quantitative easing — involving the open-ended purchase of agency mortgage-backed securities — along with plans to keep short-term interest rates near zero through mid-2015. Markets retreated late in the period amid mounting worries over the U.S. presidential election and looming fiscal cliff.
A combination of declining interest rates and central bank intervention helped bond prices move higher, with the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Index2 returning 5.25% for the year. Within the fixed-income market, the biggest gains came from higher-risk, lower credit quality bonds. Longer-maturity assets also did well, benefiting as yields fell more on longer-maturity than shorter-term issues.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares had a total return of 1.97% at net asset value (NAV), outperforming the 0.08% gain of its benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index (the Index).
Nearly all of the Fund’s underlying Portfolios contributed positively to performance.
Some of the biggest contributions to performance versus the Index came from the Floating Rate Portfolio and the option absolute return strategy employed within the MSAR Completion Portfolio. The Floating Rate Portfolio benefited, as investors flocked to the higher-yields offered by floating-rate loans, which are typically issued by below-investment-grade companies. In addition, the prices on the securities appreciated, as credit spreads–the difference between the yields on lower- and higher-quality issues–tightened. The option absolute return strategy–which involves a series of put and call option spread combinations on the S&P 500 Index–performed well during a period of relatively low market volatility.
Elsewhere, foreign exposure through the Global Macro Portfolio and Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio aided results versus the Index. These Portfolios, which focus on long and short positions in sovereign debt and currencies, gained due in part to foreign currencies appreciating against the U.S. dollar. To a lesser extent, a stake in commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) within the MSAR Completion Portfolio contributed to performance versus the Index. The Fund’s focus during the period was on high-quality, short-maturity, low-volatility issues that generated higher income rather than similar-maturity U.S. Treasuries. On the margin, a small increase in the Fund’s overall duration–a measure of interest-rate sensitivity–aided performance versus the Index.
The Fund’s conservative positioning relative to its targeted volatility range muted results versus the Index, as higher-risk assets outperformed. The Fund’s stake in the Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio and its exposure to the option absolute return strategy was reduced during the period. At the same time, the Fund increased its weighting in the Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio, which is a lower-risk, more market-neutral portfolio. Small stakes in U.S. government agency mortgage-backed securities (through the Short-Term U.S. Government and Government Obligations Portfolios) and investment-grade corporate bonds had minimal impact on overall performance versus the Index. Some of the hedging strategies within the MSAR Completion Portfolio detracted from performance versus the Index. The Fund had some S&P 500 Index put options to manage the risk of owning the floating-rate loans and risk, in general. As the markets went up, the cost of owning these contracts dragged on performance versus the Index.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolios. |

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek total return. The Fund currently pursues its objective by investing all of its investable assets in interests in the following seven portfolios managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) or its affiliates: Floating Rate Portfolio, Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio, Global Macro Portfolio, Government Obligations Portfolio, MSAR Completion Portfolio, Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio and Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio (the Portfolios), which are Massachusetts business trusts. The value of the Fund’s investments in the Portfolios reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of Floating Rate Portfolio, Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio, Global Macro Portfolio, Government Obligations Portfolio, MSAR Completion Portfolio, Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio and Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio (1.0%, 4.5%, 1.5%, 5.6%, 99.7%, 67.7% and 9.1%, respectively, at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolios. A copy of each Portfolio’s financial statements is available on the EDGAR database on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website (www.sec.gov), at the Commission’s public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund’s principal underwriter, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), by calling 1-800-262-1122.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — The valuation policies common to the Portfolios are as follows:
Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days and excluding most seasoned, fixed rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities as noted below) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less (excluding those that are non-U.S. dollar denominated, which typically are valued by a pricing service or dealer quotes) are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolios’ Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Precious metals are valued at the New York composite mean quotation reported by Bloomberg at the valuation time. Exchange-traded options (other than FLexible EXchange traded options) are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at valuation time as reported by the Options Price Reporting Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or board of trade for non-U.S. listed options. Over-the-counter options (including options on securities, indices and foreign currencies) and FLexible EXchange traded options traded at the Chicago Board Options Exchange are valued by a third party pricing service using techniques that consider factors including the value of the underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying instrument and the period of time until option expiration. Financial and commodities futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolios’ forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Forward commodity contracts are generally valued based on the price of the underlying futures or forward contract provided by the exchange on which the underlying instruments are traded or if unavailable, based on forward rates provided by broker/dealers. Interest rate swaps, cross-currency swaps and options on interest rate swaps (“swaptions”) are normally valued using

Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap rates provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Alternatively, swaptions may be valued at the valuation provided by the counterparty, so determined using the same techniques as those employed by the pricing service. Credit default swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. The pricing services employ electronic data processing techniques to determine the present value based on credit spread quotations obtained from broker/dealers and expected default recovery rates determined by the pricing service using proprietary models. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolios in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolios might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
Additional valuation policies for Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio, Global Macro Portfolio, Government Obligations Portfolio and Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio are as follows: Most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities are valued through the use of the investment adviser’s matrix pricing system, which takes into account bond prices, yield differentials, anticipated prepayments and interest rates provided by dealers.
Additional valuation policies for Floating Rate Portfolio (the Portfolio) are as follows: Interests in senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) for which reliable market quotations are readily available are valued generally at the average mean of bid and ask quotations obtained from a third party pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value by the investment adviser under procedures approved by the Trustees. In fair valuing a Senior Loan, the investment adviser utilizes one or more of the valuation techniques described in (i) through (iii) below to assess the likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the loan underlying such Senior Loan relative to yields on other Senior Loans issued by companies of comparable credit quality. If the investment adviser believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using a matrix pricing approach that considers the yield on the Senior Loan. If the investment adviser believes there is not a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using analyses that include, but are not limited to: (i) a comparison of the value of the borrower’s outstanding equity and debt to that of comparable public companies; (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis; or (iii) when the investment adviser believes it is likely that a borrower will be liquidated or sold, an analysis of the terms of such liquidation or sale. In certain cases, the investment adviser will use a combination of analytical methods to determine fair value, such as when only a portion of a borrower’s assets are likely to be sold. In conducting its assessment and analyses for purposes of determining fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser will use its discretion and judgment in considering and appraising relevant factors. Fair value determinations are made by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio based on information available to such managers. The portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may not possess the same information about a Senior Loan borrower as the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. At times, the fair value of a Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may vary from the fair value of the same Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. The fair value of each Senior Loan is periodically reviewed and approved by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee and by the Trustees based upon procedures approved by the Trustees. Junior Loans (i.e., subordinated loans and second lien loans) are valued in the same manner as Senior Loans.
The Portfolios may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by EVM. Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolios less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $31,834,307 and current year deferred capital losses of $16,497,310 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2013 ($1,057,658), October 31, 2014 ($1,054,697), October 31, 2015 ($1,377,385), October 31, 2016 ($15,304,398), October 31, 2017 ($9,100,702) and October 31, 2018 ($3,939,467). The current year deferred capital losses are treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s next taxable year and are treated as realized prior to the utilization of the capital loss carryforward.
Additionally, at October 31, 2012, the Fund had a net investment loss of $2,265,508 incurred after December 31, 2011. This net investment loss is treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s taxable year ending October 31, 2013.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any) are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |

Distributions declared from: | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 15,711,633 | | | $ | 9,640,534 | |
Tax return of capital | | $ | 5,018,272 | | | | — | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated distributions in excess of net investment income was increased by $818,627, accumulated net realized loss was increased by $4,993,975 and paid-in capital was increased by $5,812,602 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for swap contracts, premium amortization, tax accounting for straddle transactions, foreign currency gain (loss), futures contracts, options contracts, investments in passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), investment in partnerships, a Portfolio’s investment in a subsidiary and paydown gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Capital loss carryforward and deferred capital losses | | $ | (48,331,617 | ) |
Late year ordinary losses | | $ | (2,265,508 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 7,830,225 | |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (241,934 | ) |

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, tax accounting for straddle transactions, defaulted bond interest, foreign currency transactions, premium amortization, swap contracts, futures contracts, investment in partnerships, options contracts, partnership allocations, PFICs and the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
EVM serves as the investment adviser and administrator of the Fund, providing investment advisory services (relating to the investment of the Fund’s assets in the Portfolios) and administering the business affairs of the Fund. EVM does not receive a fee for serving as the Fund’s investment adviser and administrator. The Portfolios have engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s allocated portion of the investment adviser fees paid by the Portfolios amounted to $5,540,428 or 0.71% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $15,406 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that EVD, an affiliate of EVM, received $19,809 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund and the Portfolios who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolios are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $991,508 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $146,371 and $946,489 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $970,000 and $14,835,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $48,790 and $315,496 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $26,000, $33,000 and $36,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.

8 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the Fund’s investments in the Portfolios were valued based on Level 1 inputs.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
The 12-month period ending October 31, 2012 was a year dominated by central bank easing. The most aggressive action took place in developed-market countries that are burdened with debt. The European Central Bank (ECB) offered low-interest, three-year loans to banks, as the region’s debt crisis made it difficult for banks to fund their operations in the public markets. The ECB also cut its main interest rate three times, to a record low of 0.75%, and unveiled a plan to buy bonds of troubled eurozone governments. With their key policy rates already near zero, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the Fed), Bank of Japan and Bank of England relied on quantitative easing to try to reduce longer-term borrowing costs and spur economic growth. In addition, the Fed continued with “Operation Twist,” a stimulus program that was set to expire in June 2012 but that was extended through the end of 2012.
In the United States, gross domestic product (GDP) growth slid from an annual rate of 4.1% in the fourth quarter of 2011 to 2.7% or less in each of the next three quarters. Growth in Germany and Japan also decelerated, Spain and Italy entered recession, and France appeared to be heading in that direction. Latin American and emerging Asian economies grew faster than their developed-market counterparts. However, their growth rates slowed, causing central banks in Brazil, China and other countries in these regions to reduce interest rates.
The world’s bond markets generally posted positive returns during the fiscal year. Higher-risk securities delivered some of the strongest gains, as investors chased yield in the low-rate environment. For example, local bond prices appreciated throughout much of the emerging world. In the foreign exchange markets, most Latin American and Asian currencies strengthened versus the U.S. dollar, and most Central and Eastern European currencies strengthened versus the euro. On a total return basis, the Mexican peso and Philippine peso did especially well versus the U.S. dollar, while the Polish zloty was a standout performer versus the euro.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ending October, 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 3.06%. By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index (the Index)2, gained 0.08% during the period.
In Asia, the Fund benefited from long positions in several currencies, particularly the Philippine peso. The peso appreciated on reports of better-than-expected economic growth in the Philippines and a narrowing of the country’s budget deficit. Alternatively, a short position in the Japanese yen was unfavorable given the attraction of the yen as a safe-haven currency, as well as positive real rates of return on Japanese government bonds.
In Central and Eastern Europe, exposure to euro-denominated Polish debt was helpful. Poland has been working to meet the Maastricht Treaty criteria so that it can join the eurozone, and these efforts have strengthened the country’s economic fundamentals. In Western Europe, the Fund was short eurozone sovereign credit. A short position in Spain added to performance versus the Index because of Spain’s ongoing debt problems. However, a short position in France detracted from performance versus the Index, as the French credit remained strong during the period due to technical reasons.
One of the biggest contributors in Latin America was a long position in the Mexican peso. Mexico had elections in July 2012, and investors were optimistic that the new administration would institute reforms to improve the country’s long-run economic growth potential. On the negative side, a short position in Argentinian credit default swaps did poorly. The cost to insure Argentina’s bonds spiked near the end of the period due to a surprise court ruling related to the country’s debt restructuring of several years ago.
In Africa, both long and short currency positions contributed to the Fund’s return, although a long position in the Nigerian naira was particularly helpful. Nigeria’s government bills had strong yields, and the country saw increased capital flows based on its ability to export oil. Furthermore, its debt was added to key benchmark indices in the latter part of the fiscal year.
The Fund’s commodity exposure did not have a meaningful impact on performance versus the Index. The Fund was long platinum and short gold, and both precious metals posted relatively flat returns during the period.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Fund (the Fund) is a non-diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I and Class R shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Global Macro Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (89.9% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The consolidated financial statements of the Portfolio, including the consolidated portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $140,847,058 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund had a net investment loss of $57,508,193 incurred after December 31, 2011. This net loss is treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s taxable year ending October 31, 2013.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust's Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any) are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains and current year earnings and profits attributable to realized gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 210,283,992 | | | $ | 271,011,114 | |
Long-term capital gains | | $ | 29,365,274 | | | $ | — | |
Tax return of capital | | $ | — | | | $ | 22,668,295 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $76,296,710, accumulated distributions in excess of net investment income was increased by $10,645,844 and paid-in capital was decreased by $65,650,866 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for foreign currency gain (loss), paydown gain (loss), swap contracts, premium amortization, options contracts and investment in the Subsidiary. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Late year ordinary losses | | $ | (57,508,193 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 7,834,825 | |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (7,081,090 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to partnership allocations, foreign currency transactions, futures contracts, swap contracts, tax accounting for straddle transactions, premium amortization and the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders.
3 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.615% of the Fund’s average daily net assets that are not invested in other investment companies for which EVM or its affiliates serve as investment adviser or administrator (“Investable Assets”) up to $500 million and is payable monthly. On Investable Assets of $500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund incurred no adviser fee on Investable Assets. To the extent the Fund’s assets are invested in the Portfolio, the Fund is allocated its share of the Portfolio’s adviser fee. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. EVM also serves as the administrator of the Fund, but receives no compensation.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $328,983 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $221,104 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class C and Class R shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR's organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.30% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $4,984,392 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class C shares (Class C Plan) and Class R shares (Class R Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $6,944,515 for Class C shares. The Class R Plan requires the Fund to pay EVD an amount up to 0.50% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Trustees of the Trust have currently limited Class R distribution payments to 0.25% per annum of the average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $1,826 for Class R shares.
Pursuant to the Class C and Class R Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $2,314,840 and $1,826 for Class C and Class R shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% generally is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $37,000 and $66,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund's investment in the Portfolio aggregated $565,971,128 and $797,272,458, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Global Macro Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is total return. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Fund, Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund, Eaton Vance International (Cayman Islands) Strategic Income Fund, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund and Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund held an interest of 89.9%, 7.1%, 1.2%, 1.5% and less than 0.1%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The Portfolio seeks to gain exposure to the commodity markets, in whole or in part, through investments in Eaton Vance GMP Commodity Subsidiary, Ltd. (the Subsidiary), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Portfolio organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands with the same objective and investment policies and restrictions as the Portfolio. The Portfolio may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. The net assets of the Subsidiary at October 31, 2012 were $532,519,564 or 7.4% of the Portfolio's consolidated net assets. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days and excluding most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities as noted below) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities are valued through the use of the investment adviser’s matrix pricing system, which takes into account bond prices, yield differentials, anticipated prepayments and interest rates provided by dealers. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less (excluding those that are non-U.S. dollar denominated, which typically are valued by a pricing service or dealer quotes) are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Precious metals are valued at the New York composite mean quotation reported by Bloomberg at the valuation time. Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at valuation time as reported by the Options Price Reporting Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or board of trade for non-U.S. listed options. Over-the-counter options (including options on securities, indices and foreign currencies) are valued by a third party pricing service using techniques that consider factors including the value of the underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying instrument and the period of time until option expiration. Financial and commodities futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Forward commodity contracts are generally valued based on the price of the underlying futures or forward contract provided by the exchange on which the underlying instruments are traded or if unavailable, based on forward rates provided by broker/dealers. Interest rate swaps, cross-currency swaps and options on interest rate swaps (“swaptions”) are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap rates provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Alternatively, swaptions may be valued at the valuation provided by the counterparty, so determined using the same techniques as those employed by the pricing service. Credit default swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. The pricing services employ electronic data processing techniques to determine the present value based on credit spread quotations obtained from broker/dealers and expected default recovery rates determined by the pricing service using proprietary models. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the
Global Macro Portfolio

existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity's financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Inflation adjustments to the principal amount of inflation-adjusted bonds and notes are reflected as interest income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest, and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries' tax rules and rates.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio's investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor's distributive share of the Portfolio's net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
The Subsidiary is treated as a controlled foreign corporation under the Internal Revenue Code and is not expected to be subject to U.S. federal income tax. The Portfolio is treated as a U.S. shareholder of the Subsidiary. As a result, the Portfolio is required to include in gross income for U.S. federal tax purposes all of the Subsidiary’s income, whether or not such income is distributed by the Subsidiary. If a net loss is realized by the Subsidiary, such loss is not generally available to offset the income earned by the Portfolio.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio's Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
I Financial and Commodities Futures Contracts — Upon entering into a financial or commodities futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an amount equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price (initial margin). Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Portfolio each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, commodity or currency, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the financial or commodities futures contracts. Should market conditions change unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial or commodities futures contracts and may realize a loss. Futures contracts have minimal counterparty risk as they are exchange traded and the clearinghouse for the exchange is substituted as the counterparty, guaranteeing counterparty performance.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange and Forward Commodity Contracts — The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Unrealized and realized gains and losses on forward commodity contracts, which are entered into for the purchase or sale of a specific commodity at a fixed price on a future date, are accounted for as described above. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and, in the case of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
K Written Options — Upon the writing of a call or a put option, the premium received by the Portfolio is included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are closed are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. When an index option is exercised, the Portfolio is required to deliver an amount of cash determined by the excess of the strike price of the option over the value of the index (in the case of a put) or the excess of the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) at contract termination. If a put option on a security is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Portfolio. The Portfolio, as a writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities or other assets may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the securities or other assets underlying the written option. The Portfolio may also bear the risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.
L Purchased Options — Upon the purchase of a call or put option, the premium paid by the Portfolio is included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment. The amount of the investment is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. As the purchaser of an index option, the Portfolio has the right to receive a cash payment equal to any depreciation in the value of the index below the strike price of the option (in the case of a put) or equal to any appreciation in the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) as of the valuation date of the option. If an option which the Portfolio had purchased expires on the stipulated expiration date, the Portfolio will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. If the Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction, the Portfolio will realize a gain or loss, depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. If the Portfolio exercises a put option on a security, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. If the Portfolio exercises a call option on a security, the cost of the security which the Portfolio purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.
M Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
N Cross-Currency Swaps — Cross-currency swaps are interest rate swaps in which interest cash flows are exchanged between two parties based on the notional amounts of two different currencies. The notional amounts are typically determined based on the spot exchange rates at the inception of the trade. Cross-currency swaps also involve the exchange of the notional amounts at the start of the contract at the current spot rate with an agreement to re-exchange such amounts at a later date at either the same exchange rate, a specified rate or the then current spot rate. The entire principal value of a cross-currency swap is subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its contractual delivery obligations.
O Credit Default Swaps — When the Portfolio is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Portfolio is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation (or basket of debt obligations) from the counterparty to the contract if a credit event by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer or sovereign issuer, on the debt obligation occurs. In return, the Portfolio pays the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event has occurred. If no credit event occurs, the Portfolio would have spent the stream of payments and received no proceeds from the contract. When the Portfolio is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional amount of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of securities of the reference entity upon the occurrence of a credit event, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration and repudiation/moratorium. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Portfolio could be required to make would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. This potential amount would be partially offset by any recovery value of the respective referenced obligation, or net amount received from the settlement of a buy protection credit default swap
Global Macro Portfolio

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
agreement entered into by the Portfolio for the same referenced obligation. As the seller, the Portfolio may create economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The interest fee paid or received on the swap contract, which is based on a specified interest rate on a fixed notional amount, is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as realized gain upon receipt or realized loss upon payment. The Portfolio also records an increase or decrease to unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in an amount equal to the daily valuation. Upfront payments or receipts, if any, are recorded as other assets or other liabilities, respectively, and amortized over the life of the swap contract as realized gains or losses. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments, if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swap contracts to determine the market value of swaps as presented in Notes 5 and 9. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the notional amount of the credit default swaps of which it is the seller. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to any unrealized depreciation of the credit default swaps of which it is the buyer, marked to market on a daily basis. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction.
P Swaptions — A purchased swaption contract grants the Portfolio, in return for payment of the purchase price, the right, but not the obligation, to enter into an interest rate swap, at preset terms, with the seller on the expiration date of the contract. The Portfolio pays a premium to the writer, which is recorded as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the swaption. Premiums paid for swaptions that expire are treated as realized losses. Premiums paid for swaptions that are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying swap transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The writer of the swaption bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the preset rate of the underlying interest rate swap. The Portfolio’s risk is limited to the premium paid.
Q Repurchase Agreements — A repurchase agreement is the purchase by the Portfolio of securities from a counterparty in exchange for cash that is coupled with an agreement to resell those securities to the counterparty at a specified date and price. When a repurchase agreement is entered, the Portfolio typically receives securities with a value that equals or exceeds the repurchase price, including any accrued interest earned on the agreement. The value of such securities will be marked to market daily, and cash or additional securities will be exchanged between the parties as needed. Except in the case of a repurchase agreement entered to settle a short sale, the value of the securities delivered to the Portfolio will be at least equal to 90% of the repurchase price during the term of the repurchase agreement. The terms of a repurchase agreement entered to settle a short sale may provide that the cash purchase price paid by the Portfolio is more than the value of purchased securities that effectively collateralize the repurchase price payable by the counterparty. Since in such a transaction, the Portfolio normally will have used the purchased securities to settle the short sale, the Portfolio will segregate liquid assets equal to the marked to market value of the purchased securities that it is obligated to return to the counterparty under the repurchase agreement. In the event of insolvency of the counterparty to a repurchase agreement, recovery of the repurchase price owed to the Portfolio may be delayed. Such an insolvency also may result in a loss to the extent that the value of the purchased securities decreases during the delay or that value has otherwise not been maintained at an amount at least equal to the repurchase price.
R Securities Sold Short — A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security. To complete such a transaction, the Portfolio must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer with an obligation to replace such borrowed security at a later date. Until the security is replaced, the Portfolio is required to repay the lender any dividends or interest, which accrue during the period of the loan. The proceeds received from a short sale are recorded as a liability and the Portfolio records an unrealized gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the proceeds received and the value of the open short position on the day of determination. A gain, limited to the price at which the Portfolio sold the security short, or a loss, potentially unlimited as there is no upward limit on the price of a security, is recorded when the short position is terminated. Interest and dividends payable on securities sold short are recorded as an expense.
S Reverse Repurchase Agreements — Under a reverse repurchase agreement, the Portfolio temporarily transfers possession of a portfolio security to another party, such as a bank or broker/dealer, in return for cash. At the same time, the Portfolio agrees to repurchase the security at an agreed upon time and price, which reflects an interest payment. Because the Portfolio retains effective control over the transferred security, the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing. The Portfolio may enter into such agreements when it is able to invest the cash acquired at a rate higher than the cost of the agreement, which would increase earned income. When the Portfolio enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, any fluctuations in the market value of either the securities transferred to another party or the securities in which the proceeds may be invested would affect the market value of the Portfolio’s assets. Because reverse repurchase agreements may be considered to be the practical equivalent of borrowing funds, they constitute a form of leverage. The Portfolio segregates cash or liquid assets equal to its obligation to repurchase the security during the term of the agreement. In the event the counterparty to a reverse repurchase agreement becomes insolvent, recovery of the security transferred by the Portfolio may be delayed or the Portfolio may incur a loss equal to the amount by which the value of the security transferred by the Portfolio exceeds the repurchase price payable by the Fund.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio and the Subsidiary. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement between the Portfolio and BMR and the investment advisory agreement between the Subsidiary and BMR, the Portfolio and Subsidiary each pay BMR a fee at an annual rate of 0.615% of its respective average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.595% from $500 million but less than $1 billion, 0.575% from $1 billion but less than $1.5 billion, 0.555% from $1.5 billion but less than $2 billion, 0.520% from $2 billion but less than $3 billion, and 0.490% of average daily net assets of $3 billion or more, and is payable monthly. In determining the investment adviser fee for the Portfolio and Subsidiary, the applicable advisory fee rate is based on the average daily net assets of the Portfolio (inclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary). Such fee rate is then assessed separately on the Portfolio's average daily net assets (exclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary) and the Subsidiary's average daily net assets to determine the amount of the investment adviser fee. The Portfolio

invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $39,782,114 or 0.52% of the Portfolio's consolidated average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM's or BMR's organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

5 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include written options, forward commodity contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, futures contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.

The current market annual fixed rate of a particular reference entity reflects the cost, as quoted by the pricing vendor, of selling protection against default of that entity as of period end and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. The higher the fixed rate, the greater the market perceived risk of a credit event involving the reference entity. A rate identified as "Defaulted" indicates a credit event has occurred for the reference entity. |

At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective, the Portfolio is subject to the following risks:
Commodity Risk: The Portfolio invests in commodities-linked derivative investments, including commodity futures contracts and options thereon and forward commodity contracts, that provide exposure to the investment returns of certain commodities. Commodities-linked derivative investments are used to enhance total return and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of commodities.
Global Macro Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
Credit Risk: The Portfolio enters into credit default swap contracts to manage certain investment risks and/or to enhance total return.
Equity Price Risk: The Portfolio enters into equity index futures and options thereon to enhance total return and/or to manage certain investment risks.
Foreign Exchange Risk: The Portfolio engages in forward foreign currency exchange contracts, options on currencies and cross-currency swaps to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currencies.
Interest Rate Risk: The Portfolio utilizes various interest rate derivatives including futures, interest rate swaps and swaptions, and cross-currency swaps to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in interest rates, and/or to change the effective duration of its portfilio.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts, over-the-counter options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and forward commodity contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the fair value, excluding upfront payments, of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $184,026,446. The aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Portfolio for such liability was $56,321,427 at October 31, 2012.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts, over-the counter options, forward commodity contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. The Portfolio is not subject to counterparty credit risks with respect to its written options as the Portfolio, not the counterparty, is obligated to perform under such derivatives. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio (and Subsidiary) would incur due to counterparty risk was $128,541,246, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $21,999,512. Such maximum amount would be reduced by any unamortized upfront payments received by the Portfolio. Such amount would be increased by any unamortized upfront payments made by the Portfolio. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio (and Subsidiary) has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio or the counterparty. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk would be reduced by approximately $103,040,000 due to master netting agreements. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred. Because the Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, it may not be able to negotiate terms with its counterparties that are equivalent to those a registered Portfolio may negotiate. As a result, the Subsidiary may have greater exposure to those counterparties than a registered Portfolio.

The average notional amounts of futures contracts, forward commodity contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $1,628,874,000, $207,528,000, $5,937,614,000 and $3,457,404,000, respectively.
The average principal amount of purchased currency option contracts, average notional amount of interest rate swaption contracts, and average number of purchased index options contracts and purchased commodity options contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $749,955,000, $99,600,000, 874,075,000 contracts and 222 contracts, respectively.
6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Reverse Repurchase Agreements
For the year ended October 31, 2012, the average borrowings under reverse repurchase agreements and the average annual interest rate were $3,204,249 and 0.20%, respectively. At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio did not have any open reverse repurchase agreements.
8 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign
Global Macro Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
9 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio's investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Global Macro Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Global Macro Portfolio and subsidiary (the “Portfolio”), including the consolidated portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statement of operations for the year then ended, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the consolidated supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Global Macro Portfolio and subsidiary as of October 31, 2012, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund
October 31, 2012
Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the 12-month period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The MSCI World Index,2 a broad measure of global equity market performance, was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012. U.S. stocks were generally fueled by stronger economic growth and falling unemployment. European stocks continued to underperform U.S. issues, but nonetheless moved higher, aided by the Long-Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank (ECB) and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived. As U.S. stock prices decreased, stock prices overseas fell even harder. Contributing factors included renewed concerns over Europe and slowing growth in China.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Hunting for yield in a low interest-rate environment, investors were driven to stocks that offered higher yields than bonds. Ongoing action by the ECB also helped the market, particularly the Outright Monetary Transactions program to support sovereign debt.
Additional factors led U.S. stocks to generally outperform their non-U.S. counterparts. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy — which it did in September 2012. Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Amid ongoing European turmoil and a slowdown in Chinese growth, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well-regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full
circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming U.S. elections, investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy — an impasse that has left the United States rushing toward a fiscal cliff that could drag down the U.S. and global economies.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund (the Fund) had a total return of 11.81% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV). By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 3000 Index (the Index), gained 14.75% for the period. The Fund’s performance is a function of the performance of the underlying Portfolios in which it invests, as well as its allocation among these Portfolios.
The biggest detractor from relative Fund performance versus the Index was the Fund’s international equity weighting relative to the Index, which has no international stock exposure. International equities generally underperformed their U.S. counterparts during the period. However, the international portfolio in which the Fund invests outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index. The Fund’s international equity allocation was increased during the period, which helped relative performance versus the Index in the second half of the period, when international stocks rebounded. Also detracting from the Fund’s performance relative to the Index was the Fund’s allocation to Portfolios investing in small-cap stocks, which generally underperformed large-cap stocks during the period.
On the positive side, the Fund’s performance relative to the Index was aided by an overweight position in Tax-Managed Value Portfolio, which invests in large-cap value stocks. During the period, value stocks, and large-cap value stocks in particular, generally outperformed growth stocks.
Adjustments to the underlying Fund allocations occurred once during the 12-month period, in June 2012, and included a 0.50% decrease in each of five portfolios — Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio, Tax-Managed Value Portfolio, Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio, Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio and Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio. Conversely, the Fund’s allocation to the Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio was increased by 2.50%.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |

3 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. After-tax returns are calculated using certain assumptions, including using the highest historical individual federal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state/local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on a shareholder’s tax situation and the actual characterization of distributions and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to shareholders who hold shares in tax-deferred accounts or shares held by nontaxable entities. Return After Taxes on Distributions may be the same as Return Before Taxes for the same period because no taxable distributions were made during that period. Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares may be greater than or equal to Return After Taxes on Distributions for the same period because of losses realized on the sale of Fund shares. The Fund’s after-tax returns also may reflect foreign tax credits passed by the Fund to its shareholders. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolios. |

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund’s investment objective is to achieve long-term, after tax returns. The Fund currently pursues its objective by investing all of its investable assets in interests in the following six tax-managed equity portfolios managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) or its affiliates: Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio, Tax-Managed Value Portfolio, Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio, Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio, Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio and Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio (the Portfolios), which are Massachusetts business trusts. The value of the Fund’s investments in the Portfolios reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio, Tax-Managed Value Portfolio, Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio, Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio, Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio and Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio, (1.4%, 12.0%, 57.5%, 42.0%, 27.5% and 47.6%, respectively, at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolios. A copy of each Portfolio’s financial statements is available on the EDGAR database on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website (www.sec.gov), at the Commission’s public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund’s principal underwriter, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), by calling 1-800-262-1122.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — The valuation policy of each Portfolio is as follows: Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at valuation time as reported by the Options Price Reporting Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or board of trade for non-U.S. listed options. Over-the-counter options are valued by a third party pricing service using techniques that consider factors including the value of the underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying instrument and the period of time until option expiration. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolio’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolios may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund) and Eaton Vance Cash Collateral Fund, LLC (Cash Collateral Fund), affiliated investment companies managed by EVM. Cash Reserves Fund and Cash Collateral Fund generally value their investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund and Cash Collateral Fund may value their investment securities based on available market quotations provided by a third party pricing service.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolios, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $7,166,097 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
I Prior Period Adjustments — Subsequent to the issuance of the October 31, 2011 financial statements, management of the Fund determined that the Fund’s identified cost of its investment in Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio was overstated at October 31, 2011 and in prior years as a result of misstatements in the recognition of realized gains. Such misstatements aggregated to a total of approximately $20,000,000. The correction of these misstatements resulted in offsetting decreases to the net realized gain and the net change in unrealized depreciation within the Statement of Changes in Net Assets as previously presented of approximately $3,000,000 for the year ended October 31, 2011 and approximately $17,000,000 for years ending prior to October 31, 2011. These changes had no effect on the Fund’s net asset value, net assets, net increase in net assets from operations, financial highlights, total return, taxable income, taxable realized gain (loss) or distributable earnings of the Fund for any year.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any). Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 872,084 | | | $ | 531,468 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized gain was decreased by $6,161,543, accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $418,697 and paid-in capital was increased by $5,742,846 due to the Fund’s use of equalization accounting and differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for distributions from real estate investment trusts (REITs), investments in partnerships, investments in passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), redemptions in-kind and foreign currency gain (loss). Tax equalization accounting allows the Fund to treat as a distribution that portion of redemption proceeds representing a redeeming shareholder’s portion of undistributed taxable income and net capital gains. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 1,099,154 | |
Undistributed long-term capital gains | | $ | 18,408,436 | |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 73,064,921 | |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, partnership allocations, investments in PFICs, investments in partnerships and distributions from REITs.
3 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by EVM as compensation for management and investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement and subsequent fee reduction agreement between the Fund and EVM, the fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.75% of the Fund’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.70% on net assets of $500 million but less than $1 billion and at reduced rates on daily net assets of $1 billion or more, and is payable monthly. The fee reduction cannot be terminated without the consent of the Trustees and shareholders. The investment adviser fee payable by the Fund is reduced by the Fund’s allocable portion of the adviser fees paid by the Portfolios in which it invests. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s investment adviser fee totaled $2,963,774, of which $2,571,553 was allocated from the Portfolios and $392,221 was paid or accrued directly by the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s investment adviser fee, including the fees allocated from the Portfolios, was 0.75% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The administration fee is earned by EVM as compensation for administering the business affairs of the Fund and is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $592,755.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $27,613 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that EVD, an affiliate of EVM, received $16,414 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund and the Portfolios who are members of EVM’s organization receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolios are officers of EVM.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $547,195 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to
Eaton Vance
Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $177,575 and $1,144,614 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $1,125,000 and $11,647,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $59,192 and $381,538 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans.

8 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. At October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the Fund’s investments in the Portfolios were valued based on Level 1 inputs.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
Although short-term yields rose over the period from the all-time lows reached in September and October of 2011, they nonetheless remained near zero. A number of factors combined to keep interest rates at historic lows throughout the one-year period ending October 31, 2012.
The primary factor was the U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s (the Fed’s) interest rate policy. During the fiscal year, the Fed twice extended the period during which it expected to keep the federal funds target rate between 0 and 25 basis points—first into 2014 and then, later in the period, into 2015. This put downward pressure on interest rates across the yield curve.
Another important factor was ongoing strong demand for short-dated issues, as a result of more stringent liquidity regulations for money market funds that took effect in 2010. By increasing demand for paper in shorter maturity ranges, the new regulations have put upward pressure on prices and thus downward pressure on rates for short-term issues.
The Fed’s open-ended program to buy mortgage-backed, agency and Treasury securities, announced in September of 2012 and dubbed “quantitative easing round three” by investors, also increased demand and put further downward pressure on rates.
In contrast, two other factors put upward pressure on short-term rates, but only to a modest degree. The Fed’s “Operation Twist,” in which the central bank sold short-term holdings to buy longer-term Treasury bonds, tended to increase the supply of shorter-dated government securities. In addition, the worldwide “flight to quality,” which had depressed rates to all-time lows at the start of the period, moderated somewhat as the sovereign debt crisis in Europe appeared to become less dire. The net result was that short-term rates increased over the period, but only modestly.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ending October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance U.S. Government Money Market Fund (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 0.00%. At period-end, the Fund’s annualized seven-day yield was 0.00%.
Although yields on short-term government paper virtually doubled over the course of the one-year period, rates remained so low that neither the Fund nor the majority of its peers had much opportunity to add yield. To avoid a net negative yield
or investment loss, the Fund’s investment manager voluntarily reimbursed or waived a portion of the Fund’s expenses during the 12-month period.
At the start of the period, the portfolio was heavily concentrated in short-term U.S. government agency obligations, which offered a slight yield advantage over comparable maturity Treasuries. As the period progressed, however, the yield advantage of agencies over comparable maturity Treasuries decreased to the point where, in management’s view, investors were not being as well-compensated for the additional risk of agency securities. In light of the Fund’s goal of preservation of capital, management believed that Treasuries had become more attractive relative to agency debt. For that reason, the Fund’s weighting in Treasuries was increased from 17% at the start of the period to about 50% at period-end. The higher weighting in Treasuries also increased the effective liquidity of the Fund.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted. For performance as of the most recent month end, please refer to www.eatonvance.com.

Endnotes and Additional Disclosures
1 | Effective January 1, 2012, Class A, B, and C shares only are offered in exchange for Class A, B and C shares, respectively, of other Eaton Vance funds. The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio manager(s) and are current only through the date stated at the top of this page. These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
2 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. |
3 | 7-Day SEC Yield is annualized net investment income per share for the seven days ended on the date shown. Yields are historical, will fluctuate and can more closely reflect the current earnings of a fund than the total return quotation. Absent waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses by affiliates, the returns would be lower. Although the Fund seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

Class C | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,024.40 | | | $ | 0.71 | ** | | | 0.14 | % |
* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. |
** | Absent an allocation of certain expenses to affiliates, the expenses would be higher. |

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance U.S. Government Money Market Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to provide as high a rate of income as may be consistent with preservation of capital and maintenance of liquidity. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A (effective January 1, 2012), Class B and Class C shares are only offered in exchange for Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively, of other Eaton Vance funds, except that certain Eaton Vance and third-party sponsored retirement plans may continue to purchase Class A shares until such time as they identify an alternative investment vehicle. Class A shares are offered at net asset value with no front-end sales charge. Class B and Class C shares are offered at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — The Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, pursuant to which the Fund must comply with certain conditions. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, the Fund may value its investment securities based on available market quotations provided by a third party pricing service.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $193,959 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. The capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2016. In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryfoward of $6,288 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
F Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into
Eaton Vance
U.S. Government Money Market Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The net investment income of the Fund is determined daily, and substantially all of the net investment income so determined is declared daily as a dividend to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any) are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | — | | | $ | 49 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated undistributed net investment income was decreased by $12 and paid-in capital was increased by $12 due to differences between book and tax accounting. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (193,959 | ) |
3 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR) as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund’s average daily net assets up to $1 billion and at reduced rates on net assets of $1 billion or more, and is payable monthly. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s investment adviser fee amounted to $799,739 or 0.50% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. BMR has voluntarily undertaken to waive fees and reimburse expenses of the Fund to the extent necessary to maintain a yield of not less than zero. For the year ended October 31, 2012, BMR waived investment adviser fees and reimbursed expenses of the Fund of $1,003,987. The Fund’s distributor also waived its fees (see Note 4). Eaton Vance Management (EVM) serves as the administrator of the Fund, but receives no compensation.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $13,282 in sub-transfer agent fees. Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, also receives distribution and service fees from Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Fund who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Class B and Class C Plans require the Fund to pay EVD amounts equal to 0.75% of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. On issuance of Class B and Class C shares of the Fund in exchange for shares
Eaton Vance
U.S. Government Money Market Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
of an Eaton Vance fund, the respective class will assume a portion of the Uncovered Distribution Charges associated with the shares so exchanged. Uncovered Distribution Charges are generally equivalent to the sum of (i) 5% and 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by an Eaton Vance fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, respectively, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund accrued to EVD $141,506 and $165,777 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares, all of which were voluntarily waived by EVD. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $18,045,000 and $3,770,000, respectively.
The Class B and Class C Plans also authorize the Fund to make payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts not exceeding 0.25% of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. The Trustees approved service fee payments equal to 0.15% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class B and Class C shares. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD. Service fees accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $28,301 and $33,155 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, all of which were voluntarily waived by EVD.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
Class B and Class C shares are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) at the original CDSC rate that such shares were subject to prior to their exchange into the Fund. A CDSC generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within four to six years of purchase, depending on the fund from which shares were exchanged, at declining rates that begin at 3% and 5%, respectively. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. Generally, the CDSC is based on the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $50,000 and $7,000 of CDSCs paid by Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, including maturities, aggregated $764,066,398 and $945,116,758, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Line of Credit
The Fund participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Fund solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Fund based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Fund, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Fund did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
8 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the 1940 Act. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Fund’s investments, which are carried at amortized cost, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Asset Description | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | | | Total | |
| | | | |
U.S. Government Agency Obligations | | $ | — | | | $ | 56,063,569 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 56,063,569 | |
U.S. Treasury Obligations | | | — | | | | 54,105,086 | | | | — | | | | 54,105,086 | |
| | | | |
Total Investments | | $ | — | | | $ | 110,168,655 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 110,168,655 | |
The Fund held no investments or other financial instruments as of October 31, 2011 whose fair value was determined using Level 3 inputs. At October 31, 2012, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year then ended.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance U.S. Government Money Market Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance U.S. Government Money Market Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years of the period then ended . These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance U.S. Government Money Market Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the 12-month period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The MSCI World Index,2 a broad measure of global equity market performance, was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012. U.S. stocks were generally fueled by stronger economic growth and falling unemployment. European stocks continued to underperform U.S. issues, but nonetheless moved higher, aided by the Long-Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank (ECB) and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived. As U.S. stock prices decreased, stock prices overseas fell even harder. Contributing factors included renewed concerns over Europe and slowing growth in China.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Hunting for yield in a low interest-rate environment, investors were driven to stocks that offered better yields than bonds. Ongoing action by the ECB also helped the market, particularly the Outright Monetary Transactions program to support sovereign debt.
Additional factors led U.S. stocks to generally outperform their non-U.S. counterparts. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy — which it did in September 2012. Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Amid ongoing European turmoil and a slowdown in Chinese growth, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming U.S. elections, investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy — an impasse that has left the United States rushing toward a fiscal cliff that could drag down the global economy.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Global Dividend Income Fund (the Fund) had a total return of 8.35% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV). By contrast, the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI World Index (the Index), had a total return of 9.45% for the period. The Fund’s common stock allocation and its preferred securities allocation both outperformed the Index, but not by enough to offset the management expenses of the Fund.
Performance of the Fund’s common stock allocation was helped by stock selection in the materials, consumer discretionary and energy sectors. Within the materials sector, stock selection in chemicals boosted results versus the Index, as did a relative underweighting and stock selection in the poor-performing metals and mining industry. In consumer discretionary, stock selection among specialty retail stocks, as well as an overweighting in the industry, aided Fund performance versus the Index. Stock selection among energy equipment and services stocks and oil, gas and consumable fuels stocks contributed to Fund results versus the Index in the energy sector.
By contrast, stock selection in the health care, industrials and information technology (IT) sectors detracted from Fund performance versus the Index. Positioning in pharmaceuticals and weak stock selection in health care providers and services hurt Fund results versus the Index in the health care sector, as did avoiding the strong-performing biotechnology industry. Positioning in building products and industrial conglomerates detracted from Fund results versus the Index in the industrials sector. Stock selection in communications equipment and an underweight to computers and peripherals stocks, which rose sharply during the period, hurt Fund performance versus the Index in the IT sector.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had approximately 5% of its total investments in preferred securities (i.e., preferred stocks and corporate bonds and notes). The preferred securities allocation outperformed the Index as well as the overall preferred market, as measured by the BofA Merrill Lynch Fixed Rate Preferred Securities Index, an index measuring overall preferred markets. This outperformance relative to the preferred market resulted from several factors. The Fund’s bank holdings contributed to performance after bouncing back from lows reached in the summer of 2011. Capital management actions resulted in some of the Fund’s preferred holdings being tendered or called above market price, as issuers retired older, higher-interest preferred stocks in favor of new offerings that paid lower rates. The Fund also participated in a number of new issues that outperformed the overall preferred market. In addition, stock selection among high-yield names helped, as high-yield issues rallied during the period in response to investors’ search for yield.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Global Dividend Income Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to achieve total return by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of equity securities that pay dividends. Prior to August 22, 2012, the Fund invested all of its investable assets in interests in Global Dividend Income Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. As of the close of business on August 21, 2012, the Fund received its pro-rata share of cash and securities from the Portfolio as part of a complete liquidation of the Portfolio. As of August 22, 2012, the Fund invests directly in securities. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I and Class R shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. The value of preferred equity securities that are valued by a pricing service on a bond basis will be adjusted by an income factor, to be determined by the investment adviser, to reflect the next anticipated regular dividend. Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Fund’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Fund’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities.
Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Fund in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Fund may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.

B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Prior to August 22, 2012, the net investment income or loss consisted of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
D Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $204,930,274 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2014 ($481,556), October 31, 2015 ($8,547,018), October 31, 2016 ($89,543,701), October 31, 2017 ($74,538,069), October 31, 2018 ($27,975,696) and October 31, 2019 ($3,844,234). In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $829,700 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
F Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
G Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
H Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
I Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make monthly distributions of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any). Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 22,188,293 | | | $ | 26,442,372 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $232,216, accumulated undistributed net investment income was decreased by $467,281 and paid-in capital was increased by $235,065 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for foreign currency gain (loss), accretion of market discount, return of capital distributions from securities and distributions from real estate investment trusts (REITs). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 1,060,286 | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (204,930,274 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 48,443,893 | |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, accretion of market discount, distributions from REITs and foreign currency transactions.
3 Investment Adviser and Administration Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.65% of the Fund’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, and is payable monthly. On net assets of $500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. Prior to August 22, 2012, when the Fund’s assets were invested in the Portfolio, the Fund was allocated its share of the Portfolio’s adviser fee. The Portfolio paid advisory fees to BMR on the same fee schedule as that of the Fund as described above. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s allocated portion of the adviser fee paid by the Portfolio totaled $2,113,104 and the adviser fee paid by the Fund amounted to $507,334. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s investment adviser fee, including the adviser fee allocated from the Portfolio, was 0.65% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The Fund invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund.
The administration fee is earned by EVM as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $604,076.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $14,760 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $195,569 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class C and Class R shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Fund who are not affiliated with the investment adviser and administrator may elect to defer receipt of all or a

percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $536,098 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class C shares (Class C Plan) and Class R shares (Class R Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of Class C, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $1,074,679 for Class C shares, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class C Plan was approximately $15,316,000.
The Class R Plan requires the Fund to pay EVD an amount up to 0.50% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Trustees of the Trust have currently limited Class R distribution payments to 0.25% per annum of the average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $1,534 for Class R shares.
Pursuant to the Class C and Class R Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $358,226 and $1,534 for Class C and Class R shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% generally is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class C Plan. CDSCs received on Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $200 and $22,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments by the Portfolio, other than short-term obligations and investments transferred to the Fund, for the period from November 1, 2011 through August 21, 2012 aggregated $385,796,695 and $396,504,910, respectively. Purchases and sales of investments by the Fund, other than short-term obligations and investments acquired in the transfer of assets from the Portfolio, for the period from August 22, 2012 through October 31, 2012 aggregated $135,680,369 and $144,232,420, respectively. Increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio for the period from November 1, 2011 through August 21, 2012 were $8,825,199 and $448,859,484, respectively. Included in decreases is $401,364,330, representing the Fund’s interest in the Portfolio as of the close of business on August 21, 2012, which was exchanged for the net assets of the Portfolio having the same fair value, consisting primarily of securities, cash and foreign currency on that date. The Fund’s cost of its investment in the Portfolio on such date of $342,935,779 was carried forward to the net assets acquired from the Portfolio and no gain or loss was recognized on the exchange.

9 Financial Instruments
The Fund may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Fund has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | |
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts | | | | | |
| | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | |
Sales | |
Settlement Date | | Deliver | | In Exchange For | | Counterparty | | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | |
| | | | |
11/30/12 | | Euro 5,418,241 | | United States Dollar 7,023,926 | | Citibank NA | | $ | (637 | ) |
11/30/12 | | Euro 5,418,241 | | United States Dollar 7,025,535 | | Standard Chartered Bank | | | 972 | |
11/30/12 | | Euro 5,418,241 | | United States Dollar 7,023,937 | | State Street Bank and Trust Co. | | | (626 | ) |
| | | | |
| | | | | | | | $ | (291 | ) |
At October 31, 2012, the Fund had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
The Fund is subject to foreign exchange risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. Because the Fund holds foreign currency denominated investments, the value of these investments and related receivables and payables may change due to future changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To hedge against this risk, the Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Fund also enters into such contracts to hedge the currency risk of investments it anticipates purchasing.
The Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Fund’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Fund for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012 the fair value of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $1,263. The aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Fund for such liability was $20,389 at October 31, 2012.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Fund invests, including forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Fund would incur due to counterparty risk was $972, representing the fair value of such derivatives in an asset position, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $972. To mitigate this risk, the Fund has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Fund or the counterparty. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Fund if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) and whose primary underlying risk exposure is foreign exchange risk at October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Fair Value | |
Derivative | | Asset Derivative | | | Liability Derivative | |
| | |
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts | | $ | 972 | (1) | | $ | (1,263 | )(2) |
(1) | Statement of Assets and Liabilities location: Receivable for open forward foreign currency exchange contracts; Net unrealized appreciation. |
(2) | Statement of Assets and Liabilities location: Payable for open forward foreign currency exchange contracts; Net unrealized appreciation. |

The effect of derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) on the Statement of Operations and whose primary underlying risk exposure is foreign exchange risk for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Derivative | | Realized Gain (Loss) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | | | Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | |
| | |
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts | | $ | (990,326 | )(1) | | $ | (291 | )(2) |
(1) | Statement of Operations location: Net realized gain (loss) – Foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contract transactions. |
(2) | Statement of Operations location: Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) – Foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contracts. |
The average notional amount of forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which is indicative of the volume of this derivative type, was approximately $4,275,000.
10 Line of Credit
The Fund participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Fund solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Fund based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Fund, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Fund did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
11 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Fund, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
12 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Global Dividend Income Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Global Dividend Income Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Global Dividend Income Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address.

Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded, please contact Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122, or contact your financial advisor.

Proxy Voting. From time to time, funds are required to vote proxies related to the securities held by the funds. The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
The 12-month period ending October 31, 2012 was a year dominated by central bank easing. The most aggressive action took place in developed-market countries that are burdened with debt. The European Central Bank (ECB) offered low-interest, three-year loans to banks, as the region’s debt crisis made it difficult for banks to fund their operations in the public markets. The ECB also cut its main interest rate three times, to a record low of 0.75%, and unveiled a plan to buy bonds of troubled eurozone governments. With their key policy rates already near zero, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the Fed), Bank of Japan and Bank of England relied on quantitative easing to try to reduce longer-term borrowing costs and spur economic growth. In addition, the Fed continued with “Operation Twist,” a stimulus program that was set to expire in June 2012 but that was extended through the end of 2012.
In the United States, gross domestic product (GDP) growth slid from an annual rate of 4.1% in the fourth quarter of 2011 to 2.7% or less in each of the next three quarters. Growth in Germany and Japan also decelerated, Spain and Italy entered recession, and France appeared to be heading in that direction. Latin American and emerging Asian economies grew faster than their developed-market counterparts. However, their growth rates slowed, causing central banks in Brazil, China and other countries in these regions to reduce interest rates.
The world’s bond markets generally posted positive returns during the fiscal year. Higher-risk securities delivered some of the strongest gains, as investors chased yield in the low-rate environment. For example, local bond prices appreciated throughout much of the emerging world. In the foreign exchange markets, most Latin American and Asian currencies strengthened versus the U.S. dollar, and most Central and Eastern European currencies strengthened versus the euro. On a total return basis, the Mexican peso and Philippine peso did especially well versus the U.S. dollar, while the Polish zloty was a standout performer versus the euro.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ending October, 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Emerging Markets Local Income Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 7.31%. By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the J.P. Morgan GBI-EM Global Diversified Index (the Index),2 gained 7.25% during the period.
The Fund’s investments in benchmark countries in Asia helped performance versus the Index, led by overweight positions in Malaysia and the Philippines. Malaysia’s economy has been a strong performer in the region, buoyed by robust domestic demand and government spending on infrastructure projects.
In the Philippines, economic growth was better than expected, and the country’s budget deficit narrowed. An underweight in South Africa also added value. Toward the end of the period, illegal strikes in the nation’s mining industry spread to the public sector.
In Latin America, the Fund’s exposure to benchmark countries had minimal impact on relative performance versus the Index. An overweight in Mexico was positive, but the benefit was offset by underweight positions in Brazil and Colombia. Economic data coming out of Mexico was strong, and the country had peaceful elections in July 2012. Brazil’s economy showed signs of improvement following a series of tax and interest-rate cuts, and Colombia’s investor-friendly policies attracted capital flows throughout the period.
In Central and Eastern Europe, the Fund’s benchmark positions detracted from relative results versus the Index because of underweight positions in Russia and Hungary. Despite the business climate in Russia, investors still sought the yields available on the country’s bonds. Yield-hungry investors also gravitated toward Hungarian sovereign debt, even though it was downgraded by all of the major credit ratings agencies.
Investments in non-benchmark countries contributed positively to performance versus the Index, driven by short-duration currency positions in Singapore, Georgia and Uruguay. Singapore’s central bank permitted steady appreciation of the Singapore dollar during the fiscal year to curb import inflation. In the Republic of Georgia, real GDP growth has been about 6% since 2004, unemployment and inflation have fallen, and foreign direct investment flows have been strong. Uruguay is more business-friendly than Brazil and Argentina and has been attracting a significant amount of foreign direct investment as a result.

Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

1 | The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio manager(s) and are current only through the date stated at the top of this page. These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
2 | J.P. Morgan GBI-EM Global Diversified Index is an unmanaged index of local-currency bonds with maturities of more than one year issued by emerging markets governments. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
3 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. |
4 | The Gross Expense Ratios are as stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus. Net expense ratios exclude interest expenses associated with certain investment transactions. Net expense ratios reflect contractual expense reimbursements that continue through 2/28/13. Without the reimbursements, performance would have been lower. |
5 | Fund primarily invests in an affiliated investment company (Portfolio) with the same objective(s) and policies as the Fund and may also invest directly. Unless otherwise noted, references to investments are to the aggregate holdings of the Fund and the Portfolio. |
6 | Other net assets represents other assets less liabilities and includes investment types, if any, each less than 1% of net assets. See Statement of Assets and Liabilities for details. |
7 | Currency exposures include all foreign exchange denominated assets, currency derivatives and commodities (including commodity derivatives). Total exposures may exceed 100% due to implicit leverage created by derivatives. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

Class I | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,019.60 | | | $ | 5.58 | ** | | | 1.10 | % |
* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |
** | Absent an allocation of certain expenses to an affiliate, expenses would be higher. |

Emerging Markets Local Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Emerging Markets Local Income Fund (the Fund) is a non-diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Notes 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (78.5% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The consolidated financial statements of the Portfolio, including the consolidated portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $8,648,347 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any) are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for

Emerging Markets Local Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains and current year earnings and profits attributable to realized gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 24,699,037 | | | $ | 25,211,624 | |
Long-term capital gains | | $ | 2,958,847 | | | $ | — | |
Tax return of capital | | $ | 17,082,960 | | | $ | 12,235,639 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $14,800,340, accumulated undistributed net investment income was decreased by $5,048,178 and paid-in capital was decreased by $9,752,162 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for swap contracts, paydown gain (loss), premium amortization, foreign currency gain (loss), futures contracts, options contracts and the Portfolio’s investment in a subsidiary. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Net unrealized depreciation | | $ | (11,850,635 | ) |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (745,188 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders, swap contracts, wash sales, partnership allocations, foreign currency transactions, tax accounting for straddle transactions, and premium amortization.
3 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.65% of the Fund’s average daily net assets that are not invested in other investment companies for which EVM or its affiliates serve as investment adviser or administrator (“Investable Assets”) up to $1 billion and is payable monthly. On Investable Assets of $1 billion and over, the annual fee is reduced. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund incurred no investment adviser fee on Investable Assets. To the extent the Fund’s assets are invested in the Portfolio, the Fund is allocated its share of the Portfolio’s adviser fee. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services.

Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $805,932 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect a distribution plan for Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund.

Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class.

5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% generally is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $77,000 and $6,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A and Class C shareholders, respectively.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Emerging Markets Local Income Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Emerging Markets Local Income Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Emerging Markets Local Income Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is total return. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Emerging Markets Local Income Fund, Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund, Eaton Vance International (Cayman Islands) Strategic Income Fund and Eaton Vance International (Cayman Islands) Emerging Markets Local Income Fund held an interest of 78.5%, 17.6%, 2.9% and 1.0%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The Portfolio seeks to gain exposure to the commodity markets, in whole or in part, through investments in Eaton Vance EMLIP Commodity Subsidiary, Ltd. (the Subsidiary), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Portfolio organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands with the same objective and investment policies and restrictions as the Portfolio. The Portfolio may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. The net assets of the Subsidiary at October 31, 2012 were $38,702,626 or 5.0% of the Portfolio’s consolidated net assets. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days and excluding most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities as noted below) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities are valued through the use of the investment adviser’s matrix pricing system, which takes into account bond prices, yield differentials, anticipated prepayments and interest rates provided by dealers. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less (excluding those that are non-U.S. dollar denominated, which typically are valued by a pricing service or dealer quotes) are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolio’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Precious metals are valued at the New York composite mean quotation reported by Bloomberg at the valuation time. Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at valuation time as reported by the Options Price Reporting Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or board of trade for non-U.S. listed options. Over-the-counter options (including options on securities, indices and foreign currencies) are valued by a third party pricing service using techniques that consider factors including the value of the underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying instrument and the period of time until option expiration. Financial and commodities futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Forward commodity contracts are generally valued based on the price of the underlying futures or forward contract provided by the exchange on which the underlying instruments are traded or if unavailable, based on forward rates provided by broker/dealers. Interest rate and cross-currency swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap rates provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Credit default swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. The pricing services employ electronic data processing techniques to determine the present value based on credit spread quotations obtained from broker/dealers and expected default recovery rates determined by the pricing service using proprietary models. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Inflation adjustments to the principal amount of inflation-adjusted bonds and notes are reflected as interest income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
The Subsidiary is treated as a controlled foreign corporation under the Internal Revenue Code and is not expected to be subject to U.S. federal income tax. The Portfolio is treated as a U.S. shareholder of the Subsidiary. As a result, the Portfolio is required to include in gross income for U.S. federal tax purposes all of the Subsidiary’s income, whether or not such income is distributed by the Subsidiary. If a net loss is realized by the Subsidiary, such loss is not generally available to offset the income earned by the Portfolio.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
I Financial and Commodities Futures Contracts — Upon entering into a financial or commodities futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an amount equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price (initial margin). Subsequent payments, known as
Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
variation margin, are made or received by the Portfolio each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, commodity or currency, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the financial or commodities futures contracts. Should market conditions change unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial or commodities futures contracts and may realize a loss. Futures contracts have minimal counterparty risk as they are exchange traded and the clearinghouse for the exchange is substituted as the counterparty, guaranteeing counterparty performance.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange and Forward Commodity Contracts — The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Unrealized and realized gains and losses on forward commodity contracts, which are entered into for the purchase or sale of a specific commodity at a fixed price on a future date, are accounted for as described above. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and, in the case of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
K Written Options — Upon the writing of a call or a put option, the premium received by the Portfolio is included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are closed are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. When an index option is exercised, the Portfolio is required to deliver an amount of cash determined by the excess of the strike price of the option over the value of the index (in the case of a put) or the excess of the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) at contract termination. If a put option on a security is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Portfolio. The Portfolio, as a writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities or other assets may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the securities or other assets underlying the written option. The Portfolio may also bear the risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.
L Purchased Options — Upon the purchase of a call or put option, the premium paid by the Portfolio is included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment. The amount of the investment is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. As the purchaser of an index option, the Portfolio has the right to receive a cash payment equal to any depreciation in the value of the index below the strike price of the option (in the case of a put) or equal to any appreciation in the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) as of the valuation date of the option. If an option which the Portfolio had purchased expires on the stipulated expiration date, the Portfolio will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. If the Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction, the Portfolio will realize a gain or loss, depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. If the Portfolio exercises a put option on a security, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. If the Portfolio exercises a call option on a security, the cost of the security which the Portfolio purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.
M Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
N Cross-Currency Swaps — Cross-currency swaps are interest rate swaps in which interest cash flows are exchanged between two parties based on the notional amounts of two different currencies. The notional amounts are typically determined based on the spot exchange rates at the inception of the trade. Cross-currency swaps also involve the exchange of the notional amounts at the start of the contract at the current spot rate with an agreement to re-exchange such amounts at a later date at either the same exchange rate, a specified rate or the then current spot rate. The entire principal value of a cross-currency swap is subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its contractual delivery obligations.
O Credit Default Swaps — When the Portfolio is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Portfolio is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation (or basket of debt obligations) from the counterparty to the contract if a credit event by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer or sovereign issuer, on the debt obligation occurs. In return, the Portfolio pays the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event has occurred. If no credit event occurs, the Portfolio would have spent the stream of payments and received no proceeds from the contract. When the Portfolio is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional amount of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of securities of the reference entity upon the occurrence of a credit event, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration and repudiation/moratorium. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Portfolio could be required to make would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. This potential amount would be partially offset by any recovery value of the respective referenced obligation, or net amount received from the settlement of a buy protection credit default swap agreement entered into by the Portfolio for the same referenced obligation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
As the seller, the Portfolio may create economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The interest fee paid or received on the swap contract, which is based on a specified interest rate on a fixed notional amount, is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as realized gain upon receipt or realized loss upon payment. The Portfolio also records an increase or decrease to unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in an amount equal to the daily valuation. Upfront payments or receipts, if any, are recorded as other assets or other liabilities, respectively, and amortized over the life of the swap contract as realized gains or losses. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments, if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swap contracts to determine the market value of swaps as presented in Notes 5 and 8. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the notional amount of the credit default swaps of which it is the seller. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to any unrealized depreciation of the credit default swaps of which it is the buyer, marked to market on a daily basis. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction.
P Repurchase Agreements — A repurchase agreement is the purchase by the Portfolio of securities from a counterparty in exchange for cash that is coupled with an agreement to resell those securities to the counterparty at a specified date and price. When a repurchase agreement is entered, the Portfolio typically receives securities with a value that equals or exceeds the repurchase price, including any accrued interest earned on the agreement. The value of such securities will be marked to market daily, and cash or additional securities will be exchanged between the parties as needed. Except in the case of a repurchase agreement entered to settle a short sale, the value of the securities delivered to the Portfolio will be at least equal to 90% of the repurchase price during the term of the repurchase agreement. The terms of a repurchase agreement entered to settle a short sale may provide that the cash purchase price paid by the Portfolio is more than the value of purchased securities that effectively collateralize the repurchase price payable by the counterparty. Since in such a transaction, the Portfolio normally will have used the purchased securities to settle the short sale, the Portfolio will segregate liquid assets equal to the marked to market value of the purchased securities that it is obligated to return to the counterparty under the repurchase agreement. In the event of insolvency of the counterparty to a repurchase agreement, recovery of the repurchase price owed to the Portfolio may be delayed. Such an insolvency also may result in a loss to the extent that the value of the purchased securities decreases during the delay or that value has otherwise not been maintained at an amount at least equal to the repurchase price.
Q Securities Sold Short — A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security. To complete such a transaction, the Portfolio must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer with an obligation to replace such borrowed security at a later date. Until the security is replaced, the Portfolio is required to repay the lender any dividends or interest, which accrue during the period of the loan. The proceeds received from a short sale are recorded as a liability and the Portfolio records an unrealized gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the proceeds received and the value of the open short position on the day of determination. A gain, limited to the price at which the Portfolio sold the security short, or a loss, potentially unlimited as there is no upward limit on the price of a security, is recorded when the short position is terminated. Interest and dividends payable on securities sold short are recorded as an expense.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio and the Subsidiary. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement between the Portfolio and BMR and the investment advisory agreement between the Subsidiary and BMR, the Portfolio and Subsidiary each pay BMR a fee at an annual rate of 0.650% of its respective average daily net assets up to $1 billion, 0.625% from $1 billion but less than $2 billion, 0.600% from $2 billion but less than $5 billion, and 0.575% of average daily net assets of $5 billion or more, and is payable monthly. In determining the investment adviser fee for the Portfolio and Subsidiary, the applicable advisory fee rate is based on the average daily net assets of the Portfolio (inclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary). Such fee rate is then assessed separately on the Portfolio’s average daily net assets (exclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary) and the Subsidiary’s average daily net assets to determine the amount of the investment adviser fee. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser amounted to $4,959,810 or 0.65% of the Portfolio’s consolidated average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

5 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include written options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, futures contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:

* | If the Portfolio is the seller of credit protection, the notional amount is the maximum potential amount of future payments the Portfolio could be required to make if a credit event, as defined in the credit default swap agreement, were to occur. At October 31, 2012, such maximum potential amount for all open credit default swaps in which the Portfolio is the seller was $63,856,000. |
** | The contract annual fixed rate represents the fixed rate of interest received by the Portfolio (as a seller of protection) or paid by the Portfolio (as a buyer of protection) annually on the notional amount of the credit default swap contract. |
*** | Current market annual fixed rates, utilized in determining the net unrealized appreciation or depreciation as of period end, serve as an indicator of the market’s perception of the current status of the payment/performance risk associated with the credit derivative. The current market annual fixed rate of a particular reference entity reflects the cost, as quoted by the pricing vendor, of selling protection against default of that entity as of period end and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. The higher the fixed rate, the greater the market perceived risk of a credit event involving the reference entity. A rate identified as “Defaulted” indicates a credit event has occurred for the reference entity. |

| | | |
Outstanding, end of year | | | INR | | | | 1,806,700 | | | $ | 1,163,340 | |
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective, the Portfolio is subject to the following risks:
Commodity Risk: The Portfolio invests in commodities-linked derivative investments, including commodity futures contracts and options thereon and forward commodity contracts, that provide exposure to the investment returns of certain commodities. Commodities-linked derivative investments are used to enhance total return and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of commodities.
Credit Risk: The Portfolio enters into credit default swap contracts to manage certain investment risks and/or to enhance total return.
Equity Price Risk: The Portfolio enters into equity index futures and options thereon to enhance total return and/or to manage certain investment risks.
Foreign Exchange Risk: The Portfolio engages in forward foreign currency exchange contracts, options on currencies and cross-currency swaps to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currencies.
Interest Rate Risk: The Portfolio utilizes various interest rate derivatives including futures, interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in interest rates, and/or to change the effective duration of its portfolio.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts, over-the-counter options and forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the fair value, excluding upfront payments, of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $9,741,454. The aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Portfolio for such liability was $1,878,951 at October 31, 2012.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts, over-the-counter options and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. The Portfolio is not subject to counterparty credit risk with respect to its written options as the Portfolio, not the counterparty, is obligated to perform under such derivatives. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $16,087,792, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $2,815,628. Such maximum amount would be reduced by any unamortized upfront payments received by the Portfolio. Such amount would be increased by any unamortized upfront payments made by the Portfolio. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio (and Subsidiary) has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio (and Subsidiary) or the counterparty. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk would be reduced by approximately $5,839,000 due to master netting agreements. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred. Because the Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, it may not be able to negotiate terms with its counterparties that are equivalent to those a registered Portfolio may negotiate. As a result, the Subsidiary may have greater exposure to those counterparties than a registered Portfolio.

The average notional amounts of futures contracts, forward commodity contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $35,010,000, $2,560,000, $607,912,000 and $401,096,000, respectively.
The average principal amount of purchased currency options contracts, average number of purchased index options contracts and average number of purchased commodity options contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $35,516,000, 26,446,000 contracts and 7 contracts, respectively.
6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by entities whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
8 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio and subsidiary (the “Portfolio”), including the consolidated portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statement of operations for the year then ended, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the consolidated supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio and subsidiary as of October 31, 2012, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
The U.S. floating-rate loan market generated solid results for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, as measured by the 8.48% return of the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index,2 a broad barometer of the asset class. Returns of the Index reflected an increase in loan prices, plus investment income.
Throughout the past 12 months, the floating-rate market exhibited resilience amid low U.S. economic growth and uncertainty regarding U.S. fiscal policy. This resilience was due to favorable market technical and fundamental conditions. The net supply of floating-rate loans was moderate, as loan repayments by issuers helped offset new issue supply coming to market. At the same time, demand strengthened. Improved economic data and the U.S. Federal Reserve’s pledge to keep interest rates low appeared to have fueled investors’ appetite for higher-yielding alternatives to government bonds. Other investors turned to floating-rate loans for protection against potentially rising interest rates. In the institutional market, buying by pension funds, hedge funds, structured vehicles and other institutional investors, such as value crossover strategies, also expanded as the period progressed. For the period overall, the modest growth in the overall supply of loans was easily absorbed due to widespread investor demand.
In terms of issuer fundamentals, improving corporate balance sheets and better-than-expected earnings growth also helped bolster loans. Furthermore, the default rate in the market remained well below longer-term averages, ending October 31, 2012 at 1.1% by principal amount on a last-12-months basis, according to S&P Leveraged Commentary & Data (LCD).
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 7.17%. By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the Index), gained 8.48% during the period.
The Fund’s underweight to the lower-quality segment of the market detracted from performance relative to the Index. Specifically, the Fund’s holdings were biased toward higher-quality BB- and B-rated7 loans. At the same time, the Fund had an underweight to CCC-rated loans. For the year, BB-rated loans in the Index returned 6.60%, B-rated loans in the Index gained 10.12% and CCC-rated loans in the Index rose 9.93%. Within the BB- and B-rated space, the Fund had a more
pronounced overweight to the higher-rated BB-ratings tier, providing a further drag on relative results versus the Index.
Additionally, the Fund’s underweight exposure to publishing and financial intermediaries — which outperformed the broad market — and overweight exposure to the leisure goods/ activities/movies segment — which underperformed the broad market — detracted from performance relative to the Index.
Contributing to relative performance versus the Index were the Fund’s underweight exposures to utilities and telecommunications as these segments underperformed the overall loan market.
The Fund generated attractive income during the year, despite ultra low levels of short-term interest rates.
See Endnotes and Additional Disclosures in this report.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted. For performance as of the most recent month end, please refer to www.eatonvance.com.

This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |

The rating assigned to a security by a rating agency does not necessarily reflect its assessment of the volatility of a security’s market value or of the liquidity of an investment in the security. If securities are rated differently by the rating agencies, the higher rating is applied. Ratings of BBB or higher by Standard and Poor’s or Fitch (Baa or higher by Moody’s) are considered to be investment grade quality. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers five classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). The Advisers Class and Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Floating Rate Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (83.0% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $252,389,796 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2016 ($190,856,000), October 31, 2017 ($32,557,773) and October 31, 2018 ($28,976,023). In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $52,143,879 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

H Redemption Fees — Prior to January 1, 2011 and upon the redemption or exchange of shares by Advisers Class, Class A and Class I shareholders within 90 days of the settlement of purchase, a fee of 1% of the current net asset value of these shares was assessed and retained by the Fund for the benefit of the remaining shareholders. The redemption fee was accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital. Effective January 1, 2011, Advisers Class, Class A and Class I shares are no longer subject to a redemption fee.
I Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any) are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 332,891,615 | | | $ | 284,990,907 | |
Tax return of capital | | $ | — | | | $ | 10,843,575 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $1,227,911, accumulated distributions in excess of net investment income was decreased by $6,058,913 and paid-in capital was decreased by $7,286,824 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for swap contracts, mixed straddles and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 3,578,273 | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (252,389,796 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 28,179,855 | |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (11,342,298 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, partnership allocations, defaulted bond interest and the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
The administration fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $11,549,087. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $306,425 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $76,228 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Advisers Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect distribution plans for the Advisers Class shares and Class A shares (Advisers/Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Advisers/Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Advisers Class and Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $1,212,113 for Advisers Class shares and $3,670,269 for Class A shares. The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $244,317 and $5,768,928 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $11,257,000 and $208,726,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $81,439 and $1,922,976 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $56,000, $42,000 and $107,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $890,639,363 and $1,511,414,595, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

| (1) | Senior floating-rate interests (Senior Loans) often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrowers to repay at their election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity May be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. However, Senior Loans will have an expected average life of approximately two to four years. The stated interest rate represents the weighted average interest rate of all contracts within the senior loan facility and includes commitment fees on unfunded loan commitments, if any. Senior Loans typically have rates of interest which are redetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and secondarily, the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the “Prime Rate”) and the certificate of deposit (“CD”) rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders. |

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Floating Rate Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to provide a high level of current income. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Fund, Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate & High Income Fund, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund, Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund (formerly, Eaton Vance Low Duration Fund), Eaton Vance Short Term Real Return Fund and Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund held an interest of 83.0%, 4.6%, 10.1%, 1.0%, 0.5%, 0.3% and 0.3%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Interests in senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) for which reliable market quotations are readily available are valued generally at the average mean of bid and ask quotations obtained from a third party pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value by the investment adviser under procedures approved by the Trustees. In fair valuing a Senior Loan, the investment adviser utilizes one or more of the valuation techniques described in (i) through (iii) below to assess the likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the loan underlying such Senior Loan relative to yields on other Senior Loans issued by companies of comparable credit quality. If the investment adviser believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using a matrix pricing approach that considers the yield on the Senior Loan. If the investment adviser believes there is not a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using analyses that include, but are not limited to: (i) a comparison of the value of the borrower’s outstanding equity and debt to that of comparable public companies; (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis; or (iii) when the investment adviser believes it is likely that a borrower will be liquidated or sold, an analysis of the terms of such liquidation or sale. In certain cases, the investment adviser will use a combination of analytical methods to determine fair value, such as when only a portion of a borrower’s assets are likely to be sold. In conducting its assessment and analyses for purposes of determining fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser will use its discretion and judgment in considering and appraising relevant factors. Fair value determinations are made by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio based on information available to such managers. The portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may not possess the same information about a Senior Loan borrower as the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. At times, the fair value of a Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may vary from the fair value of the same Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. The fair value of each Senior Loan is periodically reviewed and approved by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee and by the Trustees based upon procedures approved by the Trustees. Junior Loans (i.e., subordinated loans and second lien loans) are valued in the same manner as Senior Loans.
Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Interest rate swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap rates provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock

exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Fees associated with loan amendments are recognized immediately. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Unfunded Loan Commitments — The Portfolio may enter into certain credit agreements all or a portion of which may be unfunded. The Portfolio is obligated to fund these commitments at the borrower’s discretion. These commitments are disclosed in the accompanying Portfolio of Investments. At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover these commitments.
H Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
I Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

K Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement and subsequent fee reduction agreement between the Portfolio and BMR, the fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.575% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $1 billion, 0.525% from $1 billion up to $2 billion, 0.500% from $2 billion up to $5 billion, 0.480% from $5 billion up to $10 billion and 0.460% of average daily net assets of $10 billion or more, and is payable monthly. Effective May 1, 2012, pursuant to an additional fee reduction agreement between the Portfolio and BMR, the portion of the fee on net assets of $10 billion and over is computed as follows: annual rate of 0.460% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets from $10 billion up to $15 billion, 0.4475% from $15 billion up to $20 billion, 0.4375% from $20 billion up to $25 billion and 0.430% of average daily net assets of $25 billion or more. The fee reductions cannot be terminated without the consent of the Trustees and shareholders. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $46,845,003 or 0.50% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Officers and Trustees of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations and including maturities, principal repayments on Senior Loans and paydowns, aggregated $3,746,407,935 and $4,157,870,920, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 9,622,503,671 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 135,168,501 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (87,221,132 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 47,947,369 | |
The net unrealized depreciation on foreign currency and swap contracts at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $7,053,445.

5 Restricted Securities
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio owned the following securities (representing less than 0.1% of net assets) which were restricted as to public resale and not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (excluding Rule 144A securities). The Portfolio has various registration rights (exercisable under a variety of circumstances) with respect to these securities. The value of these securities is determined based on valuations provided by brokers when available, or if not available, they are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees.

The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:

At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective and its use of derivatives, the Portfolio is subject to the following risks:
Foreign Exchange Risk: Because the Portfolio holds foreign currency denominated investments, the value of these investments and related receivables and payables may change due to future changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To hedge against this risk, the Portfolio enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Portfolio also enters into such contracts to hedge the currency risk of investments it anticipates purchasing.
Interest Rate Risk: Because the Portfolio holds fixed-rate bonds, the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. To hedge against this risk, the Portfolio enters into interest rate swap contracts with respect to a portion of the bonds.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012 the fair value of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $8,997,704. At October 31, 2012, the aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Portfolio for such liability was $13,554,205.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $94,937, representing the fair value of such derivatives in an asset position, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $61,220. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio or the counterparty. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) by risk exposure at October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | Fair Value | |
Risk | | Derivative | | Asset Derivative | | | Liability Derivative | |

(2) | Statement of Operations location: Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) – Foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contracts and Swap contracts, respectively. |
The average notional amounts of forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $463,978,000 and $120,000,000, respectively.
7 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with another portfolio and fund managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $800 million ($900 million prior to March 19, 2012) unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at a prime rate or an amount above either the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and fund at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
8 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
9 Credit Risk
The Portfolio invests primarily in below investment grade floating-rate loans and floating-rate debt obligations, which are considered speculative because of the credit risk of their issuers. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to reduce the capacity of issuers of these securities to make principal and interest payments. Such companies are more likely to default on their payments of interest and principal owed than issuers of investment grade bonds. An economic downturn generally leads to a higher non-payment rate, and a loan or other debt obligation may lose significant value before a default occurs. Lower rated investments also may be subject to greater price volatility than higher rated investments. Moreover, the specific collateral used to secure a loan may decline in value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the loan’s value.

10 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Asset Description | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3* | | | Total | |
| | | | |
Senior Floating-Rate Interests (Less Unfunded Loan Commitments) | | $ | — | | | $ | 8,655,003,363 | | | $ | 7,633,965 | | | $ | 8,662,637,328 | |

* | None of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 assets, individually or collectively, had a material impact on the Portfolio. |
Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the period in relation to net assets were not significant and accordingly, a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for the year ended October 31, 2012 is not presented.
At October 31, 2012, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year then ended.
Floating Rate Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Floating Rate Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Floating Rate Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities and senior loans owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers, and selling or agent banks; where replies were not received from brokers and selling or agent banks, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Floating Rate Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our pledge of privacy applies to the following entities within the Eaton Vance organization: the Eaton Vance Family of Funds, Eaton Vance Management, Eaton Vance Investment Counsel, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc., Eaton Vance Trust Company, Eaton Vance Management’s Real Estate Investment Group and Boston Management and Research. In addition, our Privacy Policy applies only to those Eaton Vance customers who are individuals and who have a direct relationship with us.

Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded, please contact Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122, or contact your financial advisor. Your instructions that householding not apply to delivery of your Eaton Vance documents will be effective within 30 days of receipt by Eaton Vance or your financial advisor.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Eaton Vance Fund and its underlying Portfolio(s) (if applicable) will file a schedule of portfolio holdings on Form N-Q with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The Form N-Q will be available on the Eaton Vance website at www.eatonvance.com, by calling Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Form N-Q may also be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s public reference room in Washington, D.C. (call 1-800-732-0330 for information on the operation of the public reference room).
Proxy Voting. From time to time, funds are required to vote proxies related to the securities held by the funds. The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
The U.S. floating-rate loan market generated solid results for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, as measured by the 8.48% return of the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index,2 a broad barometer of the asset class. Returns of the Index reflected an increase in loan prices, plus investment income.
Throughout the past 12 months, the floating-rate market exhibited resilience amid low U.S. economic growth and uncertainty regarding U.S. fiscal policy. This resilience was due to favorable market technical and fundamental conditions. The net supply of floating-rate loans was moderate, as loan repayments by issuers helped offset new issue supply coming to market. At the same time, demand strengthened. Improved economic data and the U.S. Federal Reserve’s pledge to keep interest rates low appeared to have fueled investors’ appetite for higher-yielding alternatives to government bonds. Other investors turned to floating-rate loans for protection against potentially rising interest rates. In the institutional market, buying by pension funds, hedge funds, structured vehicles, and other institutional investors, such as value crossover strategies, also expanded as the period progressed. For the period overall, the modest growth in the overall supply of loans was easily absorbed due to widespread investor demand.
In terms of issuer fundamentals, improving corporate balance sheets and better-than-expected earnings growth also helped bolster loans. Furthermore, the default rate in the market remained well below longer-term averages, ending October 31, 2012 at 1.1% by principal amount on a last-12-months basis, according to S&P Leveraged Commentary & Data (LCD).
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate & High Income Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 8.04%. By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the Index), gained 8.48% during the period.
The Fund’s underweight to the lower-quality segment of the loan market detracted from performance relative to the Index. Specifically, the Fund’s holdings were biased toward higher-quality BB- and B-rated7 loans. At the same time, the Fund had an underweight to CCC-rated loans. For the year, BB-rated loans in the Index returned 6.60%, B-rated loans in the Index gained 10.12% and CCC-rated loans in the Index rose 9.93%.
Within the BB- and B-rated space, the Fund had a more pronounced overweight to the higher-rated BB-ratings tier, providing a further drag on relative results versus the Index.
Additionally, the Fund’s underweight exposure to loans of publishing and financial intermediaries — which outperformed the broad market — and overweight exposure to the loans of leisure goods/activities/movies segment — which underperformed the broad market — detracted from performance relative to the Index.
Contributing to relative performance versus the Index was the Fund’s allocation to high-yield bonds, as bonds outperformed loans during the period. Additionally, some notable industry positions bolstered relative results versus the Index. Underweight exposures to utilities and telecommunications helped bolster results versus the Index because these segments underperformed the overall loan market.
See Endnotes and Additional Disclosures in this report.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted. For performance as of the most recent month end, please refer to www.eatonvance.com.

This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |

The rating assigned to a security by a rating agency does not necessarily reflect its assessment of the volatility of a security’s market value or of the liquidity of an investment in the security. If securities are rated differently by the rating agencies, the higher rating is applied. Ratings of BBB or higher by Standard and Poor’s or Fitch (Baa or higher by Moody’s) are considered to be investment grade quality. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolios. |

Floating-Rate & High Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Floating-Rate & High Income Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers five classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). The Advisers Class and Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund’s investment objective is to provide a high level of current income. The Fund currently pursues its objective by investing all of its investable assets in interests in the following two portfolios managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) or its affiliates: Floating Rate Portfolio and High Income Opportunities Portfolio (the Portfolios), which are Massachusetts business trusts. The value of the Fund’s investments in the Portfolios reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of Floating Rate Portfolio and High Income Opportunities Portfolio (10.1% and 19.1%, respectively, at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolios. The financial statements of Floating Rate Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements. A copy of High Income Opportunities Portfolio’s financial statements is available on the EDGAR database on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website (www.sec.gov), at the Commission’s public reference room in Washington, D.C. or upon request from the Fund’s principal underwriter, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), by calling 1-800-262-1122.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by Floating Rate Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report. Such policies are consistent with those of High Income Opportunities Portfolio.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolios, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $105,891,792 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2013 ($1,505,442), October 31, 2015 ($3,277,415), October 31, 2016 ($60,560,805), October 31, 2017 ($19,014,413), October 31, 2018 ($16,335,693) and October 31, 2019 ($5,198,024). In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $3,036,993 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Redemption Fees — Prior to January 1, 2011 and upon the redemption or exchange of shares by Advisers Class, Class A and Class I shareholders within 90 days of the settlement of purchase, a fee of 1% of the current net asset value of these shares was assessed and retained by the Fund for the benefit of the remaining shareholders. The redemption fee was accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital. Effective January 1, 2011, Advisers Class, Class A and Class I shares are no longer subject to a redemption fee.
I Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any) are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 46,922,137 | | | $ | 46,741,369 | |
Tax return of capital | | $ | — | | | $ | 1,977,867 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was increased by $468,152, accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $1,297,602 and paid-in capital was decreased by $829,450 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for swap contracts, premium amortization, defaulted bond interest, mixed straddles, investments in partnerships, paydown gain (loss) and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 765,264 | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (105,891,792 | ) |
Net unrealized depreciation | | $ | (25,735,481 | ) |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (550,541 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders, swap contracts, wash sales, partnership allocations, defaulted bond interest and premium amortization.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
The administration fee is earned by EVM as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $1,545,429. The Portfolios have engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolios’ Notes to

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
Financial Statements. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s allocated portion of adviser fees paid by the Portfolios amounted to $5,209,480 or 0.51% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $27,155 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that EVD, an affiliate of EVM, received $15,192 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Advisers Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolios are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for the Advisers Class shares and Class A shares (Advisers/Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Advisers/Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Advisers Class and Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $480,448 for Advisers Class shares and $889,599 for Class A shares. The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $108,392 and $1,534,101 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $7,603,000 and $72,826,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $36,131 and $511,367 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $8,000, $20,000 and $13,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.

8 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the Fund’s investment in High Income Opportunities Portfolio, whose financial statements are not included but are available elsewhere as discussed in Note 1, was valued based on Level 1 inputs.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate & High Income Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate & High Income Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate & High Income Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

| (1) | Senior floating-rate interests (Senior Loans) often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrowers to repay at their election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity May be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. However, Senior Loans will have an expected average life of approximately two to four years. The stated interest rate represents the weighted average interest rate of all contracts within the senior loan facility and includes commitment fees on unfunded loan commitments, if any. Senior Loans typically have rates of interest which are redetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and secondarily, the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the “Prime Rate”) and the certificate of deposit (“CD”) rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders. |
| (2) | Unfunded or partially unfunded loan commitments. The Portfolio May enter into certain credit agreements all or a portion of which May be unfunded. The Portfolio is obligated to fund these commitments at the borrower’s discretion. See Note 1G for description. |
| (3) | This Senior Loan will settle after October 31, 2012, at which time the interest rate will be determined. |
| (4) | Amount is less than 0.05%. |
| (5) | Represents a payment-in-kind security which May pay all or a portion of interest in additional par. |

| (8) | Variable rate security. The stated interest rate represents the rate in effect at October 31, 2012. |
| (9) | Security exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, which exempts from registration securities offered and sold outside the United States. Security May not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Floating Rate Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to provide a high level of current income. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Fund, Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate & High Income Fund, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund, Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund (formerly, Eaton Vance Low Duration Fund), Eaton Vance Short Term Real Return Fund and Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund held an interest of 83.0%, 4.6%, 10.1%, 1.0%, 0.5%, 0.3% and 0.3%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Interests in senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) for which reliable market quotations are readily available are valued generally at the average mean of bid and ask quotations obtained from a third party pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value by the investment adviser under procedures approved by the Trustees. In fair valuing a Senior Loan, the investment adviser utilizes one or more of the valuation techniques described in (i) through (iii) below to assess the likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the loan underlying such Senior Loan relative to yields on other Senior Loans issued by companies of comparable credit quality. If the investment adviser believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using a matrix pricing approach that considers the yield on the Senior Loan. If the investment adviser believes there is not a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using analyses that include, but are not limited to: (i) a comparison of the value of the borrower’s outstanding equity and debt to that of comparable public companies; (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis; or (iii) when the investment adviser believes it is likely that a borrower will be liquidated or sold, an analysis of the terms of such liquidation or sale. In certain cases, the investment adviser will use a combination of analytical methods to determine fair value, such as when only a portion of a borrower’s assets are likely to be sold. In conducting its assessment and analyses for purposes of determining fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser will use its discretion and judgment in considering and appraising relevant factors. Fair value determinations are made by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio based on information available to such managers. The portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may not possess the same information about a Senior Loan borrower as the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. At times, the fair value of a Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may vary from the fair value of the same Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. The fair value of each Senior Loan is periodically reviewed and approved by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee and by the Trustees based upon procedures approved by the Trustees. Junior Loans (i.e., subordinated loans and second lien loans) are valued in the same manner as Senior Loans.
Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Interest rate swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap rates provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock

exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Fees associated with loan amendments are recognized immediately. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Unfunded Loan Commitments — The Portfolio may enter into certain credit agreements all or a portion of which may be unfunded. The Portfolio is obligated to fund these commitments at the borrower’s discretion. These commitments are disclosed in the accompanying Portfolio of Investments. At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover these commitments.
H Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
I Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

K Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement and subsequent fee reduction agreement between the Portfolio and BMR, the fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.575% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $1 billion, 0.525% from $1 billion up to $2 billion, 0.500% from $2 billion up to $5 billion, 0.480% from $5 billion up to $10 billion and 0.460% of average daily net assets of $10 billion or more, and is payable monthly. Effective May 1, 2012, pursuant to an additional fee reduction agreement between the Portfolio and BMR, the portion of the fee on net assets of $10 billion and over is computed as follows: annual rate of 0.460% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets from $10 billion up to $15 billion, 0.4475% from $15 billion up to $20 billion, 0.4375% from $20 billion up to $25 billion and 0.430% of average daily net assets of $25 billion or more. The fee reductions cannot be terminated without the consent of the Trustees and shareholders. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $46,845,003 or 0.50% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Officers and Trustees of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations and including maturities, principal repayments on Senior Loans and paydowns, aggregated $3,746,407,935 and $4,157,870,920, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 9,622,503,671 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 135,168,501 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (87,221,132 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 47,947,369 | |
The net unrealized depreciation on foreign currency and swap contracts at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $7,053,445.

5 Restricted Securities
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio owned the following securities (representing less than 0.1% of net assets) which were restricted as to public resale and not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (excluding Rule 144A securities). The Portfolio has various registration rights (exercisable under a variety of circumstances) with respect to these securities. The value of these securities is determined based on valuations provided by brokers when available, or if not available, they are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees.

6 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:

At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective and its use of derivatives, the Portfolio is subject to the following risks:
Foreign Exchange Risk: Because the Portfolio holds foreign currency denominated investments, the value of these investments and related receivables and payables may change due to future changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To hedge against this risk, the Portfolio enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Portfolio also enters into such contracts to hedge the currency risk of investments it anticipates purchasing.
Interest Rate Risk: Because the Portfolio holds fixed-rate bonds, the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. To hedge against this risk, the Portfolio enters into interest rate swap contracts with respect to a portion of the bonds.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012 the fair value of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $8,997,704. At October 31, 2012, the aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Portfolio for such liability was $13,554,205.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $94,937, representing the fair value of such derivatives in an asset position, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $61,220. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio or the counterparty. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) by risk exposure at October 31, 2012 was as follows:

The effect of derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) on the Statement of Operations by risk exposure for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | |
Risk | | Derivative | | Realized Gain (Loss) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | | | Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | |

(2) | Statement of Operations location: Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) – Foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contracts and Swap contracts, respectively. |
The average notional amounts of forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $463,978,000 and $120,000,000, respectively.
7 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with another portfolio and fund managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $800 million ($900 million prior to March 19, 2012) unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at a prime rate or an amount above either the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and fund at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
8 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
9 Credit Risk
The Portfolio invests primarily in below investment grade floating-rate loans and floating-rate debt obligations, which are considered speculative because of the credit risk of their issuers. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to reduce the capacity of issuers of these securities to make principal and interest payments. Such companies are more likely to default on their payments of interest and principal owed than issuers of investment grade bonds. An economic downturn generally leads to a higher non-payment rate, and a loan or other debt obligation may lose significant value before a default occurs. Lower rated investments also may be subject to greater price volatility than higher rated investments. Moreover, the specific collateral used to secure a loan may decline in value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the loan’s value.

10 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Asset Description | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3* | | | Total | |

Senior Floating-Rate Interests (Less Unfunded Loan Commitments) | | $ | — | | | $ | 8,655,003,363 | | | $ | 7,633,965 | | | $ | 8,662,637,328 | |

Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the period in relation to net assets were not significant and accordingly, a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for the year ended October 31, 2012 is not presented.
At October 31, 2012, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year then ended.
Floating Rate Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Floating Rate Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Floating Rate Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities and senior loans owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers, and selling or agent banks; where replies were not received from brokers and selling or agent banks, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Floating Rate Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Proxy Voting. From time to time, funds are required to vote proxies related to the securities held by the funds. The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
During the 12-month period ending October 31, 2012, there were a number of historical events that impacted the fixed-income markets and led to multiple swings in investor sentiment. Returns of U.S. government securities varied based on yield curve positioning. The U.S. Federal Reserve’s (the Fed) ongoing “Operation Twist” program, which involves the sale of shorter Treasurys and the purchase of those at the longer end of the curve, was extended in June 2012 until the end of the calendar year. This pushed yields slightly higher on the short end of the curve, while pressuring yields lower on the longer end. Returns on the three-year and shorter portions of the Treasury curve were muted, with yields already historically low in this part of the curve.
Although the interest-rate backdrop remained favorable throughout the entire year as the Fed held policy rates between 0.00% and 0.25%, U.S. government securities languished during much of the first half of the period. At that time, an improving labor market gave way to stronger economic growth and prompted many investors to lower their exposure to U.S. government securities and seek opportunities among riskier asset classes. With rates at historic lows, investors searching for yield were forced to move further out on the yield curve.
In the beginning of the second half of the period, the investment backdrop became increasingly more favorable for U.S. government securities. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe intensified in the spring, which tempered future expectations of global economic growth and fueled investors’ appetite for investments that historically had provided safe havens amid periods of economic and market uncertainty. In this environment, yields on the 30-year Treasury fell nearly 100 basis points during the spring and summer, touching multi-decade lows and producing equity-like returns over the time period.
Meanwhile, policies from the Fed aimed at keeping interest rates low also bolstered demand for U.S. government-backed investments. At its June 2012 meeting, the Fed announced a continuation of “Operation Twist.” In September 2012, the Fed announced its plan to keep policy rates at or near zero until at least mid-2015 and also announced further monetary stimulus with its third round of quantitative easing (QE3). This new QE3 program came in the form of open-ended U.S. government agency mortgage-backed security (MBS) purchases. Against this already favorable backdrop
for high-quality fixed-income securities, investor demand for agency MBS further increased after the September 2012 announcement, with yield spreads compared to Treasurys tightening to their lows of the year.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ending October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Government Obligations Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 2.52%. By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the Barclay’s Capital U.S. Intermediate Government Index (the Index)2 returned 2.41% for the period.
The Fund’s outperformance versus the Index was primarily due to its investment in seasoned agency MBS. Agency MBS outperformed comparable-duration Treasurys during the past 12 months as yield spreads tightened. A weak labor market and sluggish growth in the U.S. economy led to the Fed announcing an open-ended program of MBS purchases in September 2012. The Fed’s renewed involvement in the MBS market in the form of QE3 caused a further increase in the prices of MBS investments.
Despite mortgage rates falling to all-time lows, the Fund experienced only a modest increase in prepayment rates on its seasoned MBS investments. The Fund’s seasoned MBS investments were typically comprised of mortgages originated from the early 1990s through 2003. During the period, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) announced changes to its Home Affordability Refinance Program (HARP) in an effort to help stimulate the refinance market for borrowers with higher loan-to-value ratios. Relative to the majority of the agency MBS market, the Fund’s seasoned MBS investments generally contain much lower loan-to-value ratio loans and are not usually the target of the HARP program. The impact on the Fund’s prepayment rates from the changes to the HARP program was minimal.
During the period, the Fund’s shorter portfolio duration relative to the Index detracted from performance, as the yield curve flattened and yields on the longer end of the Treasury curve fell more than those on the short end of the curve. Duration is a measure of a portfolio’s price sensitivity to changes in interest rates based on the timing of anticipated principal and interest payments. A shorter portfolio duration normally has less exposure to interest-rate changes.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Government Obligations Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers five classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I and Class R shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Government Obligations Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (91.3% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio and other income, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $87,728,739 and current year deferred capital losses of $21,899,905 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2013 ($23,607,593), October 31, 2014 ($17,522,954), October 31, 2015 ($6,336,492), October 31, 2016 ($1,612,295), October 31, 2018 ($18,778,422) and October 31, 2019 ($19,870,983). The current year deferred capital losses are treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s next taxable year and are treated as realized prior to the utilization of the capital loss carryforward.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any) are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 39,457,259 | | | $ | 36,856,851 | |
Tax return of capital | | $ | — | | | $ | 1,596,111 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $46,545,060, accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $20,556,578 and paid-in capital was decreased by $67,101,638 due to expired capital loss carryforwards and differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for paydown gain (loss) and premium amortization. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 3,304,413 | |
Capital loss carryforward and deferred capital losses | | $ | (109,628,644 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 63,634,071 | |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (708,564 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to to the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders, wash sales, partnership allocations, futures contracts and premium amortization.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
Eaton Vance Management (EVM) serves as the administrator to the Fund, but receives no compensation. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $42,957 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $152,144 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and

facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $1,656,587 for Class A shares. The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan), Class C shares (Class C Plan) and Class R shares (Class R Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 5% and 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, respectively, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $265,894 and $2,254,801 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $13,701,000 and $97,110,000, respectively. The Class R Plan requires the Fund to pay EVD an amount up to 0.50% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Trustees of the Trust have currently limited Class R distribution payments to 0.25% per annum of the average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $41,956 for Class R shares.
Pursuant to the Class B, Class C and Class R Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $88,631, $751,600 and $41,956 for Class B, Class C and Class R shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $114,000, $81,000 and $36,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $212,999,054 and $162,989,016, respectively.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Government Obligations Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Government Obligations Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Government Obligations Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Government Obligations Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to provide a high current return. The Portfolio invests primarily in mortgage-backed securities (MBS) issued, backed or otherwise guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Government Obligations Fund, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund, Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund (formerly, Eaton Vance Low Duration Fund) and Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund held an interest of 91.3%, 5.6%, 2.2% and 0.3%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days and excluding most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities as noted below) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities are valued through the use of the investment adviser’s matrix pricing system, which takes into account bond prices, yield differentials, anticipated prepayments and interest rates provided by dealers. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Financial futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Interest rate swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap quotations provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
Government Obligations Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
H Financial Futures Contracts — Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an amount equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price (initial margin). Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Portfolio each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the financial futures contracts. Should market conditions change unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss. Futures contracts have minimal counterparty risk as they are exchange traded and the clearinghouse for the exchange is substituted as the counterparty, guaranteeing counterparty performance.
I Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement and subsequent fee reduction agreement between the Portfolio and BMR, the fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.75% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.6875% from $500 million up to $1 billion, 0.6250% from $1 billion up to $1.5 billion, 0.5625% from $1.5 billion up to $2 billion, 0.5000% from $2 billion up to $2.5 billion and 0.4375% of average daily net assets of $2.5 billion or more, and is payable monthly. The fee reduction cannot be terminated without the consent of the Trustees and shareholders. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $8,603,965 or 0.70% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations and including maturities and paydowns, aggregated $392,081,632 and $307,251,739, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 1,215,814,267 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 65,550,871 | |

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
The net unrealized appreciation on swap contracts at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $877,640.
5 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include financial futures contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:

The effective date represents the date on which the Portfolio and the counterparty to the interest rate swap contract begin interest payment accruals.
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
The Portfolio is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. Because the Portfolio holds fixed-rate bonds, the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. The Portfolio utilizes various interest rate derivatives including U.S. Treasury futures and interest rate swaps to change the overall duration of the portfolio and to hedge against fluctuations in securities prices due to changes in interest rates.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no open derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $877,640, representing the fair value of such derivatives in an asset position, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $877,640. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio or the counterparty. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would reduce the amount of any loss incurred.

The fair values of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) and whose primary underlying risk exposure is interest rate risk at October 31, 2012 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Fair Value | |
Derivative | | Asset Derivative | | | Liability Derivative | |
| | |
Futures contracts | | $ | 21,484 | (1) | | $ | (27,344 | )(1) |
Swap contracts | | | 877,640 | (2) | | | — | |
| | |
Total | | $ | 899,124 | | | $ | (27,344 | ) |
(1) | Amount represents cumulative unrealized appreciation or (depreciation) on futures contracts in the Futures Contracts table above. Only the current day’s variation margin on open futures contracts is reported within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Receivable or Payable for variation margin, as applicable. |
(2) | Statement of Assets and Liabilities location: Receivable for open swap contracts; Net unrealized appreciation. |
The effect of derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) on the Statement of Operations and whose primary underlying risk exposure is interest rate risk for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Derivative | | Realized Gain (Loss) on Derivatives Recognized in Income(1) | | | Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives Recognized in Income(2) | |
| | |
Futures contracts | | $ | (5,463,659 | ) | | $ | (287,501 | ) |
Swap contracts | | $ | — | | | $ | 877,640 | |
(1) | Statement of Operations location: Net realized gain (loss) – Financial futures contracts. |
(2) | Statement of Operations location: Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) – Financial futures contracts and Swap contracts, respectively. |
The average notional amounts of futures contracts and swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $94,231,000 and $18,462,000, respectively.
6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Government Obligations Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Government Obligations Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Government Obligations Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
The U.S. corporate high-yield bond market generated a positive gain during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, as measured by the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Index.2 Favorable supply and demand conditions helped drive the advance. Investors who were frustrated by the ultralow yields offered by U.S. government bonds, wary of equity volatility and encouraged by improving macroeconomic developments poured money into high-yield bonds. Accommodative monetary policies from central banks around the world also bolstered investors’ appetite for riskier asset classes such as high-yield securities.
Robust demand easily offset an increase in supply of high-yield bonds. Supply was particularly heavy in early 2012 and later in the period. Refinancings, rather than new bond issuance, accounted for the bulk of the increase in supply, as issuers opportunistically replaced older, more expensive debt at lower prevailing rates and took advantage of strong demand for high-yield bonds.
Credit metrics on U.S. high-yield issuers remained solid, as default rates at the end of the period appeared to have stabilized at about half their longer-term average. Furthermore, overall leverage continued to be relatively low, and balance sheets generally were sound and liquid. Moderate economic growth appeared to be generating enough cash flow to comfortably meet debt service obligations for the most part, but subpar business activity continued to keep company managements cautious and not pursuing overly ambitious plans.
The technical conditions in the high-yield market were the primary drivers of price appreciation throughout much of the past year, largely due to the unprecedented liquidity provision policies of central banks. As a result, high-yield bond mutual fund inflows reached a fast pace by period-end, according to the Investment Company Institute, as bond investors aggressively pursued a quest for yield.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance High Income Opportunities Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 12.53%. By comparison, the Fund’s primary benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Index (the Index), gained 13.18% during the period.
Given investors’ increasing appetite for risk and yield, CCC-rated6 bonds outperformed their BB- and B-rated counterparts. BB-rated securities were the second-best-performing ratings category in the high-yield market, followed by B-rated securities. Although the Fund benefited in relative terms from credit selection in the CCC-rated holdings, its overall underweighting in this top-performing credit tier hampered performance versus the Index during the period. The Fund’s overweight position in BBB-rated holdings was a drag on performance versus the Index as well. On the other hand, credit selection among B-rated and CC-rated holdings aided relative performance versus the Index during the period.
Credit selection in the gaming, health care, building materials and metals/mining sectors benefited the Fund’s performance relative to the Index. Overweight positions in other sectors — namely chemicals and retail — also helped bolster relative results versus the Index, as these segments outperformed the overall market. On the other hand, the Fund’s underweight positions relative to the Index in the homebuilders and financial sectors detracted from relative performance versus the Index, as these sectors outperformed. Credit selection in the telecommunication, paper and automotive sectors was also a drag on performance versus the Index, as the Fund’s holdings in these sectors trailed those in the Index.
The Fund’s duration7 of 3.28 years was lower than the Index duration of 3.83 years at period-end, which negatively impacted the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index, as yields fell during the year. An underweight position in the 10+ year duration category also was a drag on performance versus the Index.
The Fund held short-term reserves and senior secured floating-rate loans, both of which lagged the performance of the Index and thereby detracted from performance versus the Index during the period.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance High Income Opportunities Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in High Income Opportunities Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objectives and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (51.8% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $93,299,806 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2016 ($32,861,134), October 31, 2017 ($42,283,452) and October 31, 2019 ($18,155,220). In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $306,790 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into
Eaton Vance
High Income Opportunities Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Redemption Fees — Prior to January 1, 2011 and upon the redemption or exchange of shares by Class A and Class I shareholders within 90 days of the settlement of purchase, a fee of 1% of the current net asset value of these shares was assessed and retained by the Fund for the benefit of the remaining shareholders. The redemption fee was accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital. Effective January 1, 2011, Class A and Class I shares are no longer subject to a redemption fee.
I Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any) are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 32,852,403 | | | $ | 36,875,438 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $1,406,674 and accumulated net realized loss was increased by $1,406,674 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for swap contracts, premium amortization, investments in partnerships, paydown gain (loss) and defaulted bond interest. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net assets value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 2,318,325 | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (93,299,806 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 4,155,238 | |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (830,810 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, swap contracts, premium amortization, the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders, defaulted bond interest and partnership allocations.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
Eaton Vance Management (EVM) serves as the administrator to the Fund, but receives no compensation. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $23,944 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $79,901 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $621,316 for Class A shares. The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 5% and 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, respectively, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $269,641 and $917,579 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $25,319,000 and $55,301,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $89,880 and $305,860 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $1,000, $49,000 and $7,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $23,262,115 and $69,212,131, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance High Income Opportunities Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance High Income Opportunities Fund (“the Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance High Income Opportunities Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The percentage shown for each investment category in the Portfolio of Investments is based on net assets.
| (1) | Security exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold in certain transactions (normally to qualified institutional buyers) and remain exempt from registration. At October 31, 2012, the aggregate value of these securities is $357,484,311 or 37.7% of the Portfolio’s net assets. |
| (2) | Variable rate security. The stated interest rate represents the rate in effect at October 31, 2012. |
| (3) | Represents a payment-in-kind security which may pay all or a portion of interest in additional par. |
| (4) | Currently the issuer is in default with respect to interest payments. For a variable rate security, interest rate has been adjusted to reflect non-accrual status. |
| (5) | For fair value measurement disclosure purposes, security is categorized as Level 3 (see Note 9). |
| (6) | Senior floating-rate interests (Senior Loans) often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrowers to repay at their election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. However, Senior Loans will have an expected average life of approximately two to four years. The stated interest rate represents the weighted average interest rate of all contracts within the senior loan facility and includes commitment fees on unfunded loan commitments, if any. Senior Loans typically have rates of interest which are redetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and secondarily, the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the “Prime Rate”) and the certificate of deposit (“CD”) rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders. |
| (7) | This Senior Loan will settle after October 31, 2012, at which time the interest rate will be determined. |
| (8)�� | Amount is less than 0.05%. |
| (9) | Restricted security (see Note 5). |
(10) | Non-income producing security. |
(11) | Security converts to floating rate after the indicated fixed-rate coupon period. |
(12) | Affiliated investment company available to Eaton Vance portfolios and funds which invests in high quality, U.S. dollar denominated money market instruments. The rate shown is the annualized seven-day yield as of October 31, 2012. |

High Income Opportunities Portfolio

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
High Income Opportunities Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to provide a high level of current income. The Portfolio also seeks growth of capital as a secondary investment objective. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance High Income Opportunities Fund, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate & High Income Fund, Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund and Eaton Vance International (Cayman Islands) Strategic Income Fund held an interest of 51.8%, 19.1%, 22.8% and 3.8%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Interests in senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) for which reliable market quotations are readily available are valued generally at the average mean of bid and ask quotations obtained from a third party pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value by the investment adviser under procedures approved by the Trustees. In fair valuing a Senior Loan, the investment adviser utilizes one or more of the valuation techniques described in (i) through (iii) below to assess the likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the loan underlying such Senior Loan relative to yields on other Senior Loans issued by companies of comparable credit quality. If the investment adviser believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using a matrix pricing approach that considers the yield on the Senior Loan. If the investment adviser believes there is not a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using analyses that include, but are not limited to: (i) a comparison of the value of the borrower’s outstanding equity and debt to that of comparable public companies; (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis; or (iii) when the investment adviser believes it is likely that a borrower will be liquidated or sold, an analysis of the terms of such liquidation or sale. In certain cases, the investment adviser will use a combination of analytical methods to determine fair value, such as when only a portion of a borrower’s assets are likely to be sold. In conducting its assessment and analyses for purposes of determining fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser will use its discretion and judgment in considering and appraising relevant factors. Fair value determinations are made by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio based on information available to such managers. The portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may not possess the same information about a Senior Loan borrower as the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. At times, the fair value of a Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may vary from the fair value of the same Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. The fair value of each Senior Loan is periodically reviewed and approved by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee and by the Trustees based upon procedures approved by the Trustees. Junior Loans (i.e., subordinated loans and second lien loans) are valued in the same manner as Senior Loans. Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Credit default swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. The pricing services employ electronic data processing techniques to determine the present value based on credit spread quotations obtained from broker/dealers and expected default recovery rates determined by the pricing service using proprietary models. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Fees associated with loan amendments are recognized immediately. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
H Credit Default Swaps — When the Portfolio is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Portfolio is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation (or basket of debt obligations) from the counterparty to the contract if a credit event by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer, on the debt obligation occurs. In return, the Portfolio pays the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event has occurred. If no credit event occurs, the Portfolio would have spent the stream of payments and received no proceeds from the contract. When the Portfolio is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional amount of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of securities of the reference entity upon the occurrence of a credit event, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration and repudiation/moratorium. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Portfolio could be required to make would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. This potential amount would be partially offset by any recovery value of the respective referenced obligation, or net amount received from the settlement of a buy protection credit default swap agreement entered into by the Portfolio for the same referenced obligation. As the seller, the Portfolio may create economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The interest fee paid or received on the swap contract, which is based on a specified interest rate on a fixed notional amount, is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as realized gain upon receipt or realized loss upon payment. The Portfolio also records an increase or decrease to unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in an amount equal to the daily valuation. Upfront payments or receipts, if any, are recorded as other assets or other liabilities, respectively, and amortized over the life of the swap contract as realized gains or losses. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments, if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swap contracts to determine the market value of swaps as presented in Note 6 and 9. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the notional amount of the credit default swaps of which it is the seller. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to any unrealized depreciation of the credit default swaps of which it is the buyer, marked to market on a daily basis. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction.
I Securities Sold Short — A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security. To complete such a transaction, the Portfolio must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer with an obligation to replace such borrowed security at a later date. Until the security is replaced, the Portfolio is required to repay the lender any interest, which accrues during the period of
High Income Opportunities Portfolio

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
the loan. The proceeds received from a short sale are recorded as a liability and the Portfolio records an unrealized gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the proceeds received and the value of the open short position on the day of determination. A gain, limited to the price at which the Portfolio sold the security short, or a loss, potentially unlimited as there is no upward limit on the price of a security, is recorded when the short position is terminated. Interest payable on securities sold short is recorded as an expense.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.30% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.275% from $500 million up to $1 billion and at reduced rates on daily net assets of $1 billion or more; plus 3.00% of the Portfolio’s daily gross income (i.e., income other than gains from the sale of securities) when daily net assets are less than $500 million, 2.75% when daily net assets are $500 million but less than $1 billion, and at reduced rates on daily net assets of $1 billion or more, and is payable monthly. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $4,597,545 or 0.52% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations and including maturities, paydowns and principal repayments on Senior Loans, aggregated $700,575,280 and $645,354,977, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 887,522,227 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 62,388,349 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (26,518,820 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 35,869,529 | |
5 Restricted Securities
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio owned the following securities (representing 2.0% of net assets) which were restricted as to public resale and not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (excluding Rule 144A securities). The Portfolio has various registration rights (exercisable under a variety of circumstances) with respect to these securities. The value of these securities is determined based on valuations provided by brokers when available, or if not available, they are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees.

6 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

* | Credit ratings are those of Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Corp. The credit rating of the reference debt obligation (together with the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the swap) are a representative measure of the current payment/performance risk of the credit default swap. A lower credit rating increases the probability of the occurrence of a credit event. |
** | If the Portfolio is the seller of credit protection, the notional amount is the maximum potential amount of future payments the Portfolio could be required to make if a credit event, as defined in the credit default swap agreement, were to occur. At October 31, 2012, such maximum potential amount for all open credit default swaps in which the Portfolio is the seller was $13,695,000. |
(1) | Upfront payment is exchanged with the counterparty as a result of the standardized trading coupon. |
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
The Portfolio is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The Portfolio enters into credit default swap contracts to manage its credit risk, to gain exposure to a credit in which it may otherwise invest, or to enhance return.
High Income Opportunities Portfolio

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those swaps in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the fair value, excluding upfront payments, of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $30,697.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $947,678, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $339,094. Such maximum amount would be reduced by any unamortized upfront payments received by the Portfolio. Such amount would be increased by any unamortized upfront payments made by the Portfolio. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio or the counterparty. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) and whose primary underlying risk exposure is credit risk at October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Fair Value | |
Derivative | | Asset Derivative | | | Liability Derivative | |
| | |
Credit default swap contracts | | $ | 1,151,395 | (1) | | $ | (105,728 | )(2) |
(1) | Statement of Assets and Liabilities location: Receivable for open swap contracts; Premium paid/received on open swap contracts. |
(2) | Statement of Assets and Liabilities location: Payable for open swap contracts; Premium paid/received on open swap contracts. |
The effect of derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) on the Statement of Operations and whose primary underlying risk exposure is credit risk for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Derivative | | Realized Gain (Loss) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | | | Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | |
| | |
Credit default swap contracts | | $ | (57,900 | )(1) | | $ | 1,346,663 | (2) |
(1) | Statement of Operations location: Net realized gain (loss) – Swap contracts. |
(2) | Statement of Operations location: Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) – Swap contracts. |
The average notional amount of credit default swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which is indicative of the volume of this derivative type, was approximately $33,582,000.
7 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
8 Credit Risk
The Portfolio regularly invests in lower rated and comparable quality unrated high yield securities. These investments have different risks than investments in debt securities rated investment grade and held by the Portfolio. Risk of loss upon default by the borrower is significantly greater with respect to such debt than with other debt securities because these securities are generally unsecured and are more sensitive to adverse economic conditions, such as recession or increasing interest rates, than are investment grade issuers.

9 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Asset Description | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | | | Total | |

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

* | Amount is included in the related amount on investments in the Statement of Operations. |
** | Transfers are reflected at the value of the securities at the beginning of the period. Transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 were due to a reduction in the availability of significant observable inputs in determining the fair value of these investments. |
(1) | Cost of purchases may include securities received in corporate actions; proceeds from sales may include securities delivered in corporate actions. |
The valuation techniques and significant amounts of unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements of the Portfolio’s Level 3 securities are outlined below:
| | | | | | | | | | |
Asset | | ($ in thousands) | | | Valuation Technique | | Unobservable Inputs | | Range (Weighted Average) |
| | | | |
Corporate Bonds & Notes | | | 1,702 | | | Discounted cash flow | | Yield | | 15% – 25% (20%) |
| | | | | | | | Probability of default | | 50% – 100% (100%) |
| | | | | | | Loss severity | | 10% – 50% (20%) |
Convertible Bonds | | | 38 | | | Market comparable bond pricing model | | Spread | | 1% – 3% (2%) |
| | | | | | | Discount for lack of marketability | | 10% – 25% (15%) |
Common Stocks | | | 5,661 | | | Market comparable companies | | EBITDA multiple | | 3.8 – 12.2 (7.8) |
| | | | | | | Discount for lack of marketability | | 10% – 25% (15%) |
Warrants | | | 12,873 | | | Consensus pricing | | Share tender offered quote | | $350 |
| | | | | | | Discount for lack of marketability | | 0% – 10% (0%) |
EBITDA - Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization
For the unobservable inputs listed in the table above, a significant increase in the loss severity or discount for lack of marketability, or a decrease in the tender price offered could result in a decrease to the fair value measurement. A significant increase in EBITDA multiples could result in an increase to the fair value measurement. Conversely, significant movements in the opposite direction in each of these unobservable inputs could have the inverse effect on the fair value measurement.
At October 31, 2012, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year then ended.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of High Income Opportunities Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of High Income Opportunities Portfolio (“the Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities and senior loans owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers, and selling or agent banks; where replies were not received from brokers and selling or agent banks, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of High Income Opportunities Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
The 12-month period ending October 31, 2012 was a year dominated by central bank easing. The most aggressive action took place in developed-market countries that are burdened with debt. The European Central Bank (ECB) offered low-interest, three-year loans to banks, as the region’s debt crisis made it difficult for banks to fund their operations in the public markets. The ECB also cut its main interest rate three times, to a record low of 0.75%, and unveiled a plan to buy bonds of troubled eurozone governments. With their key policy rates already near zero, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the Fed), Bank of Japan and Bank of England relied on quantitative easing to try to reduce longer-term borrowing costs and spur economic growth. In addition, the Fed continued with “Operation Twist,” a stimulus program that was set to expire in June 2012 but that was extended through the end of 2012.
In the United States, gross domestic product (GDP) growth slid from an annual rate of 4.1% in the fourth quarter of 2011 to 2.7% or less in each of the next three quarters. Growth in Germany and Japan also decelerated, Spain and Italy entered recession, and France appeared to be heading in that direction. Latin American and emerging Asian economies grew faster than their developed-market counterparts. However, their growth rates slowed, causing central banks in Brazil, China and other countries in these regions to reduce interest rates.
The world’s bond markets generally posted positive returns during the fiscal year. Higher-risk securities delivered some of the strongest gains, as investors chased yield in the low-rate environment. For example, local bond prices appreciated throughout much of the emerging world. In the foreign exchange markets, most Latin American and Asian currencies strengthened versus the U.S. dollar, and most Central and Eastern European currencies strengthened versus the euro. On a total return basis, the Mexican peso and Philippine peso did especially well versus the U.S. dollar, while the Polish zloty was a standout performer versus the euro.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ending October, 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Diversified Currency Income Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 3.71%. By comparison, the Fund’s primary benchmark, the Barclays Capital Global Ex-USD Benchmark Currency (Trade-Weighted) Index (the Index),2 lost 0.45% during the period.
The Fund’s investments, which are mainly long positions in foreign currencies, produced positive returns in all regions of the world. Gains in Central and Eastern Europe were driven by appreciation of the Georgian lari relative to the U.S. dollar. In the Republic of Georgia, real GDP growth has been about 6% since 2004, unemployment and inflation have fallen, and foreign direct investment flows have been strong. In Western Europe, the Fund benefited from exposure to the Swedish kronor and Norwegian krone, which strengthened versus the dollar. In addition, the Fund’s strategy of cross-hedging the dollar versus the euro generated incremental positive returns on these positions.
The top contributors in Africa and Asia were the Nigerian naira and Philippine peso. Nigeria’s government bills had strong yields, and the country saw increased capital flows based on its ability to export oil. Furthermore, its debt was added to key benchmark indexes in the latter part of the fiscal year. Economic growth in the Philippines was better than expected, and the country’s budget deficit narrowed. In Latin America, exposure to the Mexican peso and Colombian peso were particularly helpful. The economic data coming out of Mexico was strong, and the country had peaceful elections in July 2012. Colombia’s investor-friendly policies attracted capital flows throughout the fiscal year.
On the minus side, long positions in the Indian rupee, Indonesian rupiah and Moroccan dirham detracted from performance versus the Index. The Indian rupee declined versus the dollar due to rising inflation, stagnating economic growth and, until recently, policies that discouraged foreign direct investment in India. Indonesia’s central bank intervened to weaken the rupiah after the currency started to appreciate. The dirham was impacted by concerns that Morocco would be pulled into the turmoil brought on by the Arab awakening in North Africa.
The Fund had some exposure to commodities during the fiscal year, namely long positions in platinum and gold. These positions had minimal impact on performance versus the Index, as returns for both precious metals were essentially flat.
See Endnotes and Additional Disclosures in this report.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted. For performance as of the most recent month end, please refer to www.eatonvance.com.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted. For performance as of the most recent month end, please refer to www.eatonvance.com.

These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
2 | Barclays Capital Global Ex-USD Benchmark Currency (Trade- Weighted) Index is an unmanaged index tracking the performance of 1-month FX positions in a basket of currencies versus the U.S. dollar. J.P. Morgan GBI-Global ex U.S. 1-3 Year Index is an unmanaged index of foreign-denominated 1-3 year government bonds of developed countries outside the U.S. Index data is available as of month-end only. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. | |
3 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. |
4 | Source: Fund prospectus. Net expense ratio reflects a contractual expense reimbursement that continues through 2/28/13. Without the reimbursement, performance would have been lower. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |
** | Absent an allocation of certain expenses to the administrator, expenses would be higher. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Diversified Currency Income Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in International Income Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (30.8% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The consolidated financial statements of the Portfolio, including the consolidated portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $218,139 was utilized to offset net realized gains of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain

Diversified Currency Income Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains and current year earnings and profits attributable to realized gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 1,860,461 | | | $ | 979,722 | |
Long-term capital gains | | $ | 475,242 | | | $ | — | |
Tax return of capital | | $ | 328,543 | | | $ | — | |
| | $ | 2,664,246 | | | $ | 979,722 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $399,084, accumulated undistributed net investment income was decreased by $89,510 and paid-in capital was decreased by $309,574 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for foreign currency gain (loss), swap contracts, paydown gain (loss), premium amortization and the Portfolio’s investment in a subsidiary. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Net unrealized depreciation | | $ | (88,272 | ) |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (38,763 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to partnership allocations, futures contracts, foreign currency transactions, the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders, premium amortization and tax accounting for straddle transactions.
3 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.625% of the Fund’s average daily net assets that are not invested in other investment companies for which EVM or its affiliates serve as investment adviser or administrator (“Investable Assets”) up to $1 billion and is payable monthly. On Investable Assets of $1 billion and over, the annual fee is reduced. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund incurred no adviser fee on Investable Assets. To the extent the Fund’s assets are invested in the Portfolio, the Fund is allocated its share of the Portfolio’s adviser fee. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. EVM also serves as the administrator of the Fund, but receives no compensation. EVM has agreed to reimburse the Fund’s expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (relating to ordinary operating expenses only) exceed 1.10%, 1.80% and 0.80% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A, Class C and Class I, respectively. This agreement may be changed or terminated after February 28, 2013. Pursuant to this agreement, EVM was allocated $211,522 of the Fund’s operating expenses for the year ended October 31, 2012.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $1,585 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $16,693 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.30% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $75,131 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect a distribution plan for Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $12,608 for Class C shares.
Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $4,203 for Class C shares.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% generally is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received no CDSCs paid by Class A and Class C shareholders.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $68,307,256 and $14,136,736, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Diversified Currency Income Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Diversified Currency Income Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Diversified Currency Income Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1 Significant Accounting Policies
International Income Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is total return. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Diversified Currency Income Fund, Eaton Vance International (Cayman Islands) Strategic Income Fund and Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund held an interest of 30.8%, 10.8% and 57.4%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The Portfolio seeks to gain exposure to the commodity markets, in whole or in part, through investments in Eaton Vance IIP Commodity Subsidiary, Ltd. (the Subsidiary), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Portfolio organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands with the same objective and investment policies and restrictions as the Portfolio. The Portfolio may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. The net assets of the Subsidiary at October 31, 2012 were $18,019,780 or 6.2% of the Portfolio’s consolidated net assets. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days and excluding most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities as noted below) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities are valued through the use of the investment adviser’s matrix pricing system, which takes into account bond prices, yield differentials, anticipated prepayments and interest rates provided by dealers. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less (excluding those that are non-U.S. dollar denominated, which typically are valued by a pricing service or dealer quotes) are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Precious metals are valued at the New York composite mean quotation reported by Bloomberg at the valuation time. Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at valuation time as reported by the Options Price Reporting Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or board of trade for non-U.S. listed options. Over-the-counter options (including options on securities, indices and foreign currencies) are valued by a third party pricing service using techniques that consider factors including the value of the underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying instrument and the period of time until option expiration. Financial futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Interest rate swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap rates provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Credit default swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. The pricing services employ electronic data processing techniques to determine the present value based on credit spread quotations obtained from broker/dealers and expected default recovery rates determined by the pricing service using proprietary models. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
International Income Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Inflation adjustments to the principal amount of inflation-adjusted bonds and notes are reflected as interest income. Withholding taxes on foreign interest have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
The Subsidiary is treated as a controlled foreign corporation under the Internal Revenue Code and is not expected to be subject to U.S. federal income tax. The Portfolio is treated as a U.S. shareholder of the Subsidiary. As a result, the Portfolio is required to include in gross income for U.S. federal tax purposes all of the Subsidiary’s income, whether or not such income is distributed by the Subsidiary. If a net loss is realized by the Subsidiary, such loss is not generally available to offset the income earned by the Portfolio.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
I Financial Futures Contracts — Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an amount equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price (initial margin). Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Portfolio each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the financial futures contracts. Should market conditions change unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss. Futures contracts have minimal counterparty risk as they are exchange traded and the clearinghouse for the exchange is substituted as the counterparty, guaranteeing counterparty performance.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
K Written Options — Upon the writing of a call or a put option, the premium received by the Portfolio is included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written, in
International Income Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are closed are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. When an index option is exercised, the Portfolio is required to deliver an amount of cash determined by the excess of the strike price of the option over the value of the index (in the case of a put) or the excess of the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) at contract termination. If a put option on a security is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Portfolio. The Portfolio, as a writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities or other assets may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the securities or other assets underlying the written option. The Portfolio may also bear the risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.
L Purchased Options — Upon the purchase of a call or put option, the premium paid by the Portfolio is included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment. The amount of the investment is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. As the purchaser of an index option, the Portfolio has the right to receive a cash payment equal to any depreciation in the value of the index below the strike price of the option (in the case of a put) or equal to any appreciation in the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) as of the valuation date of the option. If an option which the Portfolio had purchased expires on the stipulated expiration date, the Portfolio will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. If the Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction, the Portfolio will realize a gain or loss, depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. If the Portfolio exercises a put option on a security, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. If the Portfolio exercises a call option on a security, the cost of the security which the Portfolio purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.
M Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
N Cross-Currency Swaps — Cross-currency swaps are interest rate swaps in which interest cash flows are exchanged between two parties based on the notional amounts of two different currencies. The notional amounts are typically determined based on the spot exchange rates at the inception of the trade. Cross-currency swaps also involve the exchange of the notional amounts at the start of the contract at the current spot rate with an agreement to re-exchange such amounts at a later date at either the same exchange rate, a specified rate or the then current spot rate. The entire principal value of a cross-currency swap is subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its contractual delivery obligations.
O Credit Default Swaps — When the Portfolio is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Portfolio is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation (or basket of debt obligations) from the counterparty to the contract if a credit event by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer or sovereign issuer, on the debt obligation occurs. In return, the Portfolio pays the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event has occurred. If no credit event occurs, the Portfolio would have spent the stream of payments and received no proceeds from the contract. When the Portfolio is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional amount of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of securities of the reference entity upon the occurrence of a credit event, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration and repudiation/moratorium. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Portfolio could be required to make would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. This potential amount would be partially offset by any recovery value of the respective referenced obligation, or net amount received from the settlement of a buy protection credit default swap agreement entered into by the Portfolio for the same referenced obligation. As the seller, the Portfolio may create economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The interest fee paid or received on the swap contract, which is based on a specified interest rate on a fixed notional amount, is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as realized gain upon receipt or realized loss upon payment. The Portfolio also records an increase or decrease to unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in an amount equal to the daily valuation. Upfront payments or receipts, if any, are recorded as other assets or other liabilities, respectively, and amortized over the life of the swap contract as realized gains or losses. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments, if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swap contracts to determine the market value of swaps as presented in Notes 5 and 8. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the notional amount of the credit default swaps of which it is the seller. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to any unrealized depreciation of the credit default swaps of which it is the buyer, marked to market on a daily basis. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction.
P Repurchase Agreements — A repurchase agreement is the purchase by the Portfolio of securities from a counterparty in exchange for cash that is coupled with an agreement to resell those securities to the counterparty at a specified date and price. When a repurchase agreement is entered, the Portfolio typically receives securities with a value that equals or exceeds the repurchase price, including any accrued interest earned on the agreement. The value of such securities will be marked to market daily, and cash or additional securities will be exchanged between the parties as needed. Except in the case of a repurchase agreement entered to settle a short sale, the value of the securities delivered to the Portfolio will be at least equal to 90% of the
International Income Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
repurchase price during the term of the repurchase agreement. The terms of a repurchase agreement entered to settle a short sale may provide that the cash purchase price paid by the Portfolio is more than the value of purchased securities that effectively collateralize the repurchase price payable by the counterparty. Since in such a transaction, the Portfolio normally will have used the purchased securities to settle the short sale, the Portfolio will segregate liquid assets equal to the marked to market value of the purchased securities that it is obligated to return to the counterparty under the repurchase agreement. In the event of insolvency of the counterparty to a repurchase agreement, recovery of the repurchase price owed to the Portfolio may be delayed. Such an insolvency also may result in a loss to the extent that the value of the purchased securities decreases during the delay or that value has otherwise not been maintained at an amount at least equal to the repurchase price.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio and the Subsidiary. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement between the Portfolio and BMR and the investment advisory agreement between the Subsidiary and BMR, the Portfolio and Subsidiary each pay BMR a fee at an annual rate of 0.625% of its respective average daily net assets up to $1 billion and at reduced rates on daily net assets of $1 billion or more, and is payable monthly. In determining the investment adviser fee for the Portfolio and Subsidiary, the applicable advisory fee rate is based on the average daily net assets of the Portfolio (inclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary). Such fee rate is then assessed separately on the Portfolio’s average daily net assets (exclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary) and the Subsidiary’s average daily net assets to determine the amount of the investment adviser fee. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $1,522,808 or 0.625% of the Portfolio’s consolidated average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations and including maturities and paydowns, for the year ended October 31, 2012 were as follows:

The net unrealized appreciation on futures contracts, foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contracts at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $170,662.
5 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts, financial futures contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk
International Income Portfolio

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:

At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective and its use of derivatives, the Portfolio is subject to the following risks:
Credit Risk: The Portfolio entered into credit default swap contracts to manage certain investment risks and/or to enhance total return.
Foreign Exchange Risk: The Portfolio engages in forward foreign currency exchange contracts to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currencies.
Interest Rate Risk: The Portfolio utilizes various interest rate derivatives including futures and interest rate swaps to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in interest rates and/or to change the effective duration of its portfolio.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the fair value of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $279,142. The aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Portfolio for such liability was $159,996 at October 31, 2012.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the
International Income Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $529,218 with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $205,910. Such maximum amount would be reduced by any unamortized upfront payments received by the Portfolio. Such amount would be increased by any unamortized upfront payments made by the Portfolio. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio or the counterparty. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk would be reduced by approximately $58,000 due to master netting agreements. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) by risk exposure at October 31, 2012 was as follows:

International Income Portfolio

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
8 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of International Income Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of International Income Portfolio and subsidiary (the “Portfolio”), including the consolidated portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statement of operations for the year then ended, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the consolidated supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of International Income Portfolio and subsidiary as of October 31, 2012, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance2
Economic and Market Conditions
During the 12-month period ending October 31, 2012, there were a number of historical events that impacted the fixed-income markets and led to multiple swings in investor sentiment. Returns of U.S. government securities varied based on yield curve positioning. The U.S. Federal Reserve’s (the Fed) ongoing “Operation Twist” program, which involves the sale of shorter Treasurys and the purchase of those at the longer end of the curve, was extended in June 2012 until the end of the calendar year. This pushed yields slightly higher on the short end of the curve, while pressuring yields lower on the longer end. Returns on the three-year and shorter portions of the Treasury curve were muted, with yields already historically low in this part of the curve.
Although the interest-rate backdrop remained favorable throughout the entire year as the Fed held policy rates between 0.00% and 0.25%, U.S. government securities languished during much of the first half of the period. At that time, an improving labor market gave way to stronger economic growth and prompted many investors to lower their exposure to U.S. government securities and seek opportunities among riskier asset classes. With rates at historic lows, investors searching for yield were forced to move further out on the yield curve.
In the beginning of the second half of the period, the investment backdrop became increasingly more favorable for U.S. government securities. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe intensified in the spring, which tempered future expectations of global economic growth and fueled investors’ appetite for investments that historically had provided safe havens amid periods of economic and market uncertainty. In the environment, yields on the 30-year Treasury fell nearly 100 basis points during the spring and summer, touching multidecade lows and producing equity-like returns over the time period.
Meanwhile, policies from the Fed aimed at keeping interest rates low also bolstered demand for U.S. government-backed investments. At its June 2012 meeting, the Fed announced a continuation of “Operation Twist.” In September 2012, the Fed announced its plan to keep policy rates at or near zero until at least mid-2015 and also announced further monetary stimulus with its third round of quantitative easing (QE3). This new QE3 program came in the form of open-ended U.S. government agency mortgage-backed security (MBS) purchases. Against this already favorable backdrop for high-quality fixed-income securities, investor demand for agency MBS further increased after the September 2012
announcement, with yield spreads compared to Treasurys tightening to their lows of the year.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ending October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 3.71%. By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year U.S. Treasury Index (the Index)3 returned 0.41% for the period.
The Fund’s outperformance versus the Index was primarily due to its investment in seasoned agency MBS. Agency MBS outperformed comparable-duration Treasurys during the past 12 months as yield spreads tightened. The Fund also benefited from its investment in seasoned interest only and inverse floating-rate interest only MBS, as there was substantial spread tightening in the sector over the year. A weak labor market and sluggish growth in the U.S. economy led to the Fed announcing an open-ended program of MBS purchases in September 2012. The Fed’s renewed involvement in the MBS market in the form of QE3 caused a further increase in the prices of MBS investments.
Despite mortgage rates falling to all-time lows, the Fund experienced only a modest increase in prepayment rates on its seasoned MBS investments. The Fund’s seasoned MBS investments were typically comprised of mortgages originated from the early 1990s through 2003. During the period, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) announced changes to its Home Affordability Refinance Program (HARP) in an effort to help stimulate the refinance market for borrowers with higher loan-to-value ratios. Relative to the majority of the agency MBS market, the Fund’s seasoned MBS investments generally contain much lower loan-to-value ratio loans and are not usually the target of the HARP program. The impact on the Fund’s prepayment rates from the changes to the HARP program was minimal.
Also boosting relative performance versus the Index in the period was the Fund’s exposure to senior secured floating-rate bank loans through its investment in Floating Rate Portfolio. At the start of the period, the asset class was recovering from a late-summer 2011 sell-off. Prices continued to appreciate during the 12-month period, as favorable macroeconomic developments and positive technical trends provided a supportive environment for risk assets. Improving company fundamentals, earnings growth and low new default rates also favorably impacted the performance of loans in the Floating Rate Portfolio.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolios. |

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund (formerly, Eaton Vance Low Duration Fund) (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares four years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek total return. At October 31, 2012, the Fund pursued its objective by investing all of its investable assets in interests in the following three portfolios managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) or its affiliates: Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio, Floating Rate Portfolio and Government Obligations Portfolio (the Portfolios), which are Massachusetts business trusts. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolios reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio, Floating Rate Portfolio and Government Obligations Portfolio (87.9%, 0.5% and 2.2%, respectively, at October 31, 2012). Effective November 1, 2012, the Fund began investing in the CMBS Portfolio managed by an affiliate of EVM. The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolios. The financial statements of Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements. A copy of each Portfolio’s financial statements is available on the EDGAR database on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website (www.sec.gov), at the Commission’s public reference room in Washington, D.C. or upon request from the Fund’s principal underwriter, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), by calling 1-800-262-1122.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of such Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report. Such policies are consistent with those of Floating Rate Portfolio, CMBS Portfolio and Government Obligations Portfolio for applicable investments.
Additional valuation policies for Floating Rate Portfolio (the Portfolio) are as follows: The Portfolio’s investments are primarily in interests in senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) of domestic and foreign issues. Interests in Senior Loans for which reliable market quotations are readily available are valued generally at the average mean of bid and ask quotations obtained from a third party pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value by the investment adviser under procedures approved by the Trustees. In fair valuing a Senior Loan, the investment adviser utilizes one or more of the valuation techniques described in (i) through (iii) below to assess the likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the loan underlying such Senior Loan relative to yields on other Senior Loans issued by companies of comparable credit quality. If the investment adviser believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using a matrix pricing approach that considers the yield on the Senior Loan. If the investment adviser believes there is not a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using analyses that include, but are not limited to: (i) a comparison of the value of the borrower’s outstanding equity and debt to that of comparable public companies; (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis; or (iii) when the investment adviser believes it is likely that a borrower will be liquidated or sold, an analysis of the terms of such liquidation or sale. In certain cases, the investment adviser will use a combination of analytical methods to determine fair value, such as when only a portion of a borrower’s assets are likely to be sold. In conducting its assessment and analyses for purposes of determining fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser will use its discretion and judgment in considering and appraising relevant factors. Fair value determinations are made by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio based on information available to such managers. The portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may not possess the same information about a Senior Loan borrower as the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. At times, the fair value of a Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may vary from the fair value of the same Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. The fair value of each Senior Loan is periodically reviewed and approved by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee and by the Trustees based upon procedures approved by the Trustees. Junior Loans (i.e., subordinated loans and second lien loans) are valued in the same manner as Senior Loans. Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads.

B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $32,525,247 and current year deferred capital losses of $3,712,374 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2013 ($1,016,104), October 31, 2014 ($811,882), October 31, 2015 ($374,820), October 31, 2016 ($594,536), October 31, 2017 ($766,153), October 31, 2018 ($16,698,377) and October 31, 2019 ($12,263,375), respectively. The current year deferred capital losses are treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s next taxable year and are treated as realized prior to the utilization of the capital loss carryforward.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 12,966,351 | | | $ | 15,471,135 | |
During the period ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $520,447, accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $3,221,997 and paid-in capital was decreased by $3,742,444 due to expired capital loss carryforwards and differences between book

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
and tax accounting, primarily for paydown gain (loss), premium amortization, mixed straddles, swap contracts and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 201,740 | |
Capital loss carryforward and deferred capital losses | | $ | (36,237,621 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 32,956,292 | |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (201,840 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to partnership allocations, futures contracts, premium amortization, defaulted bond interest and the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
EVM serves as the investment adviser and administrator of the Fund, providing investment advisory services (relating to the investment of the Fund’s assets in the Portfolios) and administering the business affairs of the Fund. Pursuant to the investment advisory and administrative agreement and subsequent fee waiver agreement between the Fund and EVM, the fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets, all of which is waived. The fee waiver agreement may not be amended or terminated without the approval of the Fund’s Trustees and shareholders. The Portfolios have engaged BMR to render investment advisory services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s allocated portion of the adviser fees paid by the Portfolios amounted to $2,187,591 or 0.51% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $10,920 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that EVD, an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $22,689 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s and BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and Portfolios are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $561,088 for Class A shares. The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% and 0.60% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts therefore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $66,996 and $767,077 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% and 0.60% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares, respectively. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $1,478,000 and $16,836,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $22,332 and $319,615 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within four years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending

Low Duration Government Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 3% in the case of redemptions in the first year of purchase, declining to 2.5% in the second year, 2.0% in the third year, 1.0% in the fourth year and 0.0% thereafter. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $4,000, $24,000 and $14,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.

9 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the Fund’s investments in Floating Rate Portfolio and Government Obligations Portfolio, whose financial statements are not included but are available elsewhere as discussed in Note 1, were valued based on Level 1 inputs.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund (formerly, Eaton Vance Low Duration Fund):
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund (formerly, Eaton Vance Low Duration Fund) (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to seek total return. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Low Duration Government Income Fund (formerly, Eaton Vance Low Duration Fund), Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund, Eaton Vance Short Term Real Return Fund, Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund and Eaton Vance International (Cayman Islands) Strategic Income Fund held an interest of 87.9%, 9.1%, 0.02%, 0.03% and 0.03%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days and excluding most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities as noted below) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities are valued through the use of the investment adviser’s matrix pricing system, which takes into account bond prices, yield differentials, anticipated prepayments and interest rates provided by dealers. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Financial futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Interest rate swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap quotations provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

G Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
H Financial Futures Contracts — Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an amount equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price (initial margin). Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Portfolio each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the financial futures contracts. Should market conditions change unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss. Futures contracts have minimal counterparty risk as they are exchange traded and the clearinghouse for the exchange is substituted as the counterparty, guaranteeing counterparty performance.
I Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
J Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities — The Fund may invest in Interest Only (IO) securities, a form of stripped mortgage-backed securities, whereby the IO security receives all the interest on a pool of mortgage assets. The yield to maturity on an IO security is extremely sensitive to the rate of principal payments (including pre-payments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and a rapid rate of principal payments may have a material adverse effect on the yield to maturity from these securities. If the underlying mortgages experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the Fund may fail to recoup its initial investment in an IO security. The market value of IO securities can be unusually volatile to changes in interest rates.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $2,035,119.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser and administrator may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments

4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 380,205,645 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 31,300,087 | |

| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 29,029,574 | |
The net unrealized appreciation on swap contracts at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $438,820.
5 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include financial futures contracts and swap contracts may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Futures Contracts | |
Expiration Month/Year | | Contracts | | Position | | Aggregate Cost | | | Value | | | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | |
| | | | | |
12/12 | | 250 U.S. 5-Year Treasury Note | | Short | | $ | (31,072,265 | ) | | $ | (31,062,500 | ) | | $ | 9,765 | |
12/12 | | 400 U.S. 10-Year Treasury Note | | Short | | | (53,103,125 | ) | | | (53,212,500 | ) | | | (109,375 | ) |
| | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | $ | (99,610 | ) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Interest Rate Swaps | |
Counterparty | | Notional Amount (000’s omitted) | | | Portfolio Pays/Receives Floating Rate | | Floating Rate Index | | Annual Fixed Rate | | | Effective Date/ Termination Date | | | Net Unrealized Appreciation | |
| | | | | | |
Deutsche Bank AG | | $ | 10,000 | | | Pays | | 3-month USD-LIBOR-BBA | | | 2.61 | % | | | June 1, 2017/June 1, 2022 | | | $ | 13,090 | |
Deutsche Bank AG | | | 10,000 | | | Receives | | 3-month USD-LIBOR-BBA | | | 2.82 | | | | June 1, 2017/June 1, 2047 | | | | 425,730 | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | $ | 438,820 | |
The effective date represents the date on which the Portfolio and the counterparty to the interest rate swap contract begin interest payment accruals.
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
The Portfolio is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. Because the Portfolio holds fixed rate bonds, the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. The Portfolio utilizes various interest rate derivatives including U.S. Treasury futures and interest rate swaps to change the overall duration of the portfolio and to hedge against fluctuations in securities prices due to change in interest rates.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the

Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no open derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $438,820, representing the fair value of such derivatives in an asset position, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $438,820. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio or the counterparty. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would reduce the amount of any loss incurred.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) and whose primary underlying risk exposure is interest rate risk at October 31, 2012 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Fair Value | |
Derivative | | Asset Derivatives | | | Liability Derivatives | |
| | |
Futures contracts | | $ | 9,765 | (1) | | $ | (109,375 | )(1) |
Swap contracts | | | 438,820 | (2) | | | — | |
| | |
Total | | $ | 448,585 | | | $ | (109,375 | ) |
(1) | Amount represents cumulative unrealized appreciation or (depreciation) on futures contracts in the Futures Contracts table above. Only the current day’s variation margin on open futures contracts is reported within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Receivable or Payable for variation margin, as applicable. |
(2) | Statement of Assets and Liabilities location: Receivable for open swap contracts; Net unrealized appreciation. |
The effect of derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) on the Statement of Operations and whose primary underlying risk exposure is interest rate risk for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Derivative | | Realized Gain (Loss) on Derivatives Recognized in Income(1) | | | Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives Recognized in Income(2) | |
| | |
Futures contracts | | $ | (6,338,523 | ) | | $ | 99,218 | |
Swap contracts | | $ | — | | | $ | 438,820 | |
(1) | Statement of Operations location: Net realized gain (loss) – Financial futures contracts. |
(2) | Statement of Operations location: Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) – Financial futures contracts and Swap contracts, respectively. |
The average notional amounts of futures contracts and swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $83,500,000 and $9,231,000, respectively.
6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Asset Description | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | | | Total | |

October 31, 2012
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Short-Term U.S. Government Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures include confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other audit procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Short- Term U.S. Government Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded, please contact Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122, or contact your financial advisor. Your instructions that householding not apply to delivery of your Eaton Vance documents will be effective within 30 days of receipt by Eaton Vance or your financial advisor.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Eaton Vance Fund and its underlying Portfolio(s) (if applicable) will file a schedule of portfolio holdings on Form N-Q with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The Form N-Q will be available on the Eaton Vance website at www.eatonvance.com, by calling Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Form N-Q may also be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s public reference room in Washington, D.C. (call 1-800-732-0330 for information on the operation of the public reference room).
Proxy Voting. From time to time, funds are required to vote proxies related to the securities held by the funds. The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
The 12-month period ending October 31, 2012 was a year dominated by central bank easing. The most aggressive action took place in developed-market countries that are burdened with debt. The European Central Bank (ECB) offered low-interest, three-year loans to banks, as the region’s debt crisis made it difficult for banks to fund their operations in the public markets. The ECB also cut its main interest rate three times, to a record low of 0.75%, and unveiled a plan to buy bonds of troubled eurozone governments. With their key policy rates already near zero, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the Fed), Bank of Japan and Bank of England relied on quantitative easing to try to reduce longer-term borrowing costs and spur economic growth. In addition, the Fed continued with “Operation Twist,” a stimulus program that was set to expire in June 2012 but that was extended through the end of 2012.
In the United States, gross domestic product (GDP) growth slid from an annual rate of 4.1% in the fourth quarter of 2011 to 2.7% or less in each of the next three quarters. Growth in Germany and Japan also decelerated, Spain and Italy entered recession, and France appeared to be heading in that direction. Latin American and emerging Asian economies grew faster than their developed-market counterparts. However, their growth rates slowed, causing central banks in Brazil, China and other countries in these regions to reduce interest rates.
The world’s bond markets generally posted positive returns during the fiscal year. Higher-risk securities delivered some of the strongest gains, as investors chased yield in the low-rate environment. For example, local bond prices appreciated throughout much of the emerging world. In the foreign exchange markets, most Latin American and Asian currencies strengthened versus the U.S. dollar, and most Central and Eastern European currencies strengthened versus the euro. On a total return basis, the Mexican peso and Philippine peso did especially well versus the U.S. dollar, while the Polish zloty was a standout performer versus the euro.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ending October, 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 4.79%. By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index (the Index)2, gained 0.08% during the period.
In Asia, the Fund benefited from long positions in several currencies, particularly the Philippine peso. The peso appreciated on reports of better-than-expected economic growth in the Philippines and a narrowing of the country’s budget deficit. Alternatively, a short position in the Japanese yen was unfavorable given the attraction of the yen as a safe-haven currency, as well as positive real rates of return on Japanese government bonds.
In Central and Eastern Europe, exposure to euro-denominated Polish debt was helpful. Poland has been working to meet the Maastricht Treaty criteria so that it can join the eurozone, and these efforts have strengthened the country’s economic fundamentals. In Western Europe, the Fund was short eurozone sovereign credit. A short position in Spain added to performance versus the Index because of Spain’s ongoing debt problems. However, a short position in France detracted from performance versus the Index, as the French credit remained strong during the period due to technical reasons.
One of the biggest contributors in Latin America was a long position in the Mexican peso. Mexico had elections in July 2012, and investors were optimistic that the new administration would institute reforms to improve the country’s long-run economic growth potential. On the negative side, a short position in Argentinian credit default swaps did poorly. The cost to insure Argentina’s bonds spiked near the end of the period due to a surprise court ruling related to the country’s debt restructuring of several years ago.
In Africa, both long and short currency positions contributed to the Fund’s return, although a long position in the Nigerian naira was particularly helpful. Nigeria’s government bills had strong yields, and the country saw increased capital flows based on its ability to export oil. Furthermore, its debt was added to key benchmark indices in the latter part of the fiscal year.
The Fund’s commodity exposure did not have a meaningful impact on performance versus the Index. The Fund was long platinum and short gold, and both precious metals posted relatively flat returns during the period.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

Class R | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,013.80 | | | $ | 11.39 | ** | | | 2.25 | % |
* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |
** | Absent an allocation of certain expenses to an affiliate, expenses would be higher. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Fund (the Fund) is a non-diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I and Class R shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (66.7% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The consolidated financial statements of the Portfolio, including the consolidated portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund had a net investment loss of $19,248,844 incurred after December 31, 2011. This net loss is treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s taxable year ending October 31, 2013.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end which is subjet to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 21,371,838 | | | $ | 94,314 | |
Long-term capital gains | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 465,968 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized gain was increased by $30,161,680, accumulated undistributed net investment income was decreased by $31,417,847 and paid-in capital was increased by $1,256,167 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for swap contracts, premium amortization, dividend redesignations, foreign currency gain (loss), futures contracts, option contracts and the Portfolio’s investment in a subsidiary. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed long-term capital gains | | $ | 41,627,057 | |
Late year ordinary losses | | $ | (19,248,844 | ) |
Net unrealized depreciation | | $ | (3,534,738 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, tax accounting for straddle transactions, swap contracts, partnership allocations and premium amortization.
3 Investment Adviser and Administration Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser and administration fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for investment advisory and administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund’s average daily net assets that are not invested in other investment companies for which EVM or its affiliates serve as investment adviser or administrator (“Investable Assets”) up to $500 million, and is payable monthly. On Investable Assets of $500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund incurred no investment adviser and administration fee on Investable Assets. To the extent the Fund’s assets are invested in the Portfolio, the Fund is allocated its share of the Portfolio’s adviser fee. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. EVM has agreed to reimburse the Fund’s expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (relating to ordinary operating expenses only) exceed 1.55%, 2.25%, 1.25% and 1.75% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A, Class C, Class I and Class R, respectively.

No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended and for the period from the start of business, August 31, 2010, to October 31, 2010. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended and for the period from the start of business, August 31, 2010, to October 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is total return. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Fund, Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund, Eaton Vance International (Cayman Islands) Strategic Income Fund and Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund held an interest of 66.7%, 23.2%, 4.5%, 4.3% and 1.3%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The Portfolio seeks to gain exposure to the commodity markets, in whole or in part, through investments in Eaton Vance GMAP Commodity Subsidiary, Ltd. (the Subsidiary), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Portfolio organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands with the same objective and investment policies and restrictions as the Portfolio. The Portfolio may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. The net assets of the Subsidiary at October 31, 2012 were $49,419,604 or 4.2% of the Portfolio’s consolidated net assets. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities are valued through the use of the investment adviser’s matrix pricing system, which takes into account bond prices, yield differentials, anticipated prepayments and interest rates provided by dealers. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less (excluding those that are non-U.S. dollar denominated, which typically are valued by a pricing service or dealer quotes) are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolio’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Precious metals are valued at the New York composite mean quotation reported by Bloomberg at the valuation time. Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at valuation time as reported by the Options Price Reporting Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or board of trade for non-U.S. listed options. Over-the-counter options (including options on securities, indices and foreign currencies) are valued by a third party pricing service using techniques that consider factors including the value of the underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying instrument and the period of time until option expiration. Financial and commodities futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Forward commodity contracts are generally valued based on the price of the underlying futures or forward contract provided by the exchange on which the underlying instruments are traded or if unavailable, based on forward rates provided by broker/dealers. Interest rate swaps, cross-currency swaps and options on interest rate swaps (“swaptions”) are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap rates provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Alternatively, swaptions may be valued at the valuation provided by the counterparty, so determined using the same techniques as those employed by the pricing service. Credit default swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. The pricing services employ electronic data processing techniques to determine the present value based on credit spread quotations obtained from broker/dealers and expected default recovery rates determined by the pricing service using proprietary models. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to,
Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Inflation adjustments to the principal amount of inflation-adjusted bonds and notes are reflected as interest income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, interest and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
The Subsidiary is treated as a controlled foreign corporation under the Internal Revenue Code and is not expected to be subject to U.S. federal income tax. The Portfolio is treated as a U.S. shareholder of the Subsidiary. As a result, the Portfolio is required to include in gross income for U.S. federal tax purposes all of the Subsidiary’s income, whether or not such income is distributed by the Subsidiary. If a net loss is realized by the Subsidiary, such loss is not generally available to offset the income earned by the Portfolio.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
I Financial and Commodities Futures Contracts — Upon entering into a financial or commodities futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an amount equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price (initial margin). Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Portfolio each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security, commodity, index or currency, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the financial or commodities futures contracts. Should market conditions change unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial or commodities futures contracts and may realize a loss. Futures contracts have minimal counterparty risk as they are exchange traded and the clearinghouse for the exchange is substituted as the counterparty, guaranteeing counterparty performance.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange and Forward Commodity Contracts — The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Unrealized and realized gains and losses on forward commodity contracts, which are entered into for the purchase or sale of a specific commodity at a fixed price on a future date, are accounted for as described above. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and, in the case of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
K Written Options — Upon the writing of a call or a put option, the premium received by the Portfolio is included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are closed are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. When an index option is exercised, the Portfolio is required to deliver an amount of cash determined by the excess of the strike price of the option over the value of the index (in the case of a put) or the excess of the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) at contract termination. If a put option on a security is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Portfolio. The Portfolio, as a writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities or other assets may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the securities or other assets underlying the written option. The Portfolio may also bear the risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.
L Purchased Options — Upon the purchase of a call or put option, the premium paid by the Portfolio is included in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment. The amount of the investment is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. As the purchaser of an index option, the Portfolio has the right to receive a cash payment equal to any depreciation in the value of the index below the strike price of the option (in the case of a put) or equal to any appreciation in the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) as of the valuation date of the option. If an option which the Portfolio had purchased expires on the stipulated expiration date, the Portfolio will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. If the Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction, the Portfolio will realize a gain or loss, depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. If the Portfolio exercises a put option on a security, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. If the Portfolio exercises a call option on a security, the cost of the security which the Portfolio purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.
M Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
N Cross-Currency Swaps — Cross-currency swaps are interest rate swaps in which interest cash flows are exchanged between two parties based on the notional amounts of two different currencies. The notional amounts are typically determined based on the spot exchange rates at the inception of the trade. Cross-currency swaps also involve the exchange of the notional amounts at the start of the contract at the current spot rate with an agreement to re-exchange such amounts at a later date at either the same exchange rate, a specified rate or the then current spot rate. The entire principal value of a cross-currency swap is subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its contractual delivery obligations.
O Credit Default Swaps — When the Portfolio is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Portfolio is entitled to receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation (or basket of debt obligations) from the counterparty to the contract if a credit event by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer or sovereign issuer, on the debt obligation occurs. In return, the Portfolio pays the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event has occurred. If no credit event occurs, the Portfolio would have spent the stream of payments and received no proceeds from the contract. When the Portfolio is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay to the buyer of the protection an amount up to the notional amount of the swap and in certain instances take delivery of securities of the reference entity upon the occurrence of a credit event, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration and repudiation/moratorium. If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a
Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
credit event occurs, the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Portfolio could be required to make would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. This potential amount would be partially offset by any recovery value of the respective referenced obligation, or net amount received from the settlement of a buy protection credit default swap agreement entered into by the Portfolio for the same referenced obligation. As the seller, the Portfolio may create economic leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Portfolio is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The interest fee paid or received on the swap contract, which is based on a specified interest rate on a fixed notional amount, is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as realized gain upon receipt or realized loss upon payment. The Portfolio also records an increase or decrease to unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in an amount equal to the daily valuation. Upfront payments or receipts, if any, are recorded as other assets or other liabilities, respectively, and amortized over the life of the swap contract as realized gains or losses. For financial reporting purposes, unamortized upfront payments, if any, are netted with unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swap contracts to determine the market value of swaps as presented in Notes 5 and 8. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the notional amount of the credit default swaps of which it is the seller. The Portfolio segregates assets in the form of cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to any unrealized depreciation of the credit default swaps of which it is the buyer, marked to market on a daily basis. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction.
P Swaptions — A purchased swaption contract grants the Portfolio, in return for payment of the purchase price, the right, but not the obligation, to enter into an interest rate swap, at preset terms, with the seller on the expiration date of the contract. The Portfolio pays a premium to the writer, which is recorded as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the swaption. Premiums paid for swaptions that expire are treated as realized losses. Premiums paid for swaptions that are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying swap transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. The writer of the swaption bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the preset rate of the underlying interest rate swap. The Portfolio’s risk is limited to the premium paid.
Q Repurchase Agreements — A repurchase agreement is the purchase by the Portfolio of securities from a counterparty in exchange for cash that is coupled with an agreement to resell those securities to the counterparty at a specified date and price. When a repurchase agreement is entered, the Portfolio typically receives securities with a value that equals or exceeds the repurchase price, including any accrued interest earned on the agreement. The value of such securities will be marked to market daily, and cash or additional securities will be exchanged between the parties as needed. Except in the case of a repurchase agreement entered to settle a short sale, the value of the securities delivered to the Portfolio will be at least equal to 90% of the repurchase price during the term of the repurchase agreement. The terms of a repurchase agreement entered to settle a short sale may provide that the cash purchase price paid by the Portfolio is more than the value of purchased securities that effectively collateralize the repurchase price payable by the counterparty. Since in such a transaction, the Portfolio normally will have used the purchased securities to settle the short sale, the Portfolio will segregate liquid assets equal to the marked to market value of the purchased securities that it is obligated to return to the counterparty under the repurchase agreement. In the event of insolvency of the counterparty to a repurchase agreement, recovery of the repurchase price owed to the Portfolio may be delayed. Such an insolvency also may result in a loss to the extent that the value of the purchased securities decreases during the delay or that value has otherwise not been maintained at an amount at least equal to the repurchase price.
R Securities Sold Short — A short sale is a transaction in which the Portfolio sells a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security. To complete such a transaction, the Portfolio must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer with an obligation to replace such borrowed security at a later date. Until the security is replaced, the Portfolio is required to repay the lender any dividends or interest, which accrue during the period of the loan. The proceeds received from a short sale are recorded as a liability and the Portfolio records an unrealized gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the proceeds received and the value of the open short position on the day of determination. A gain, limited to the price at which the Portfolio sold the security short, or a loss, potentially unlimited as there is no upward limit on the price of a security, is recorded when the short position is terminated. Interest and dividends payable on securities sold short are recorded as an expense.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio and the Subsidiary. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement between the Portfolio and BMR and the investment advisory agreement between the Subsidiary and BMR, the Portfolio and Subsidiary each pay BMR a fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of its respective average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.95% from $500 million but less than $1 billion, 0.925% from $1 billion but less than $2.5 billion, 0.90% from $2.5 billion but less than $5 billion, and 0.88% of average daily net assets of $5 billion or more, and is payable monthly. In determining the investment adviser fee for the Portfolio and Subsidiary, the applicable advisory fee rate is based on the average daily net assets of the Portfolio (inclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary). Such fee rate is then assessed separately on the Portfolio’s average daily net assets (exclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary) and the Subsidiary’s average daily net assets to determine the amount of the investment adviser fee. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $10,642,020 or 0.97% of the Portfolio’s consolidated average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

5 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include written options, forward commodity contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, futures contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes.

* | If the Portfolio is the seller of credit protection, the notional amount is the maximum potential amount of future payments the Portfolio could be required to make if a credit event, as defined in the credit default swap agreement, were to occur. At October 31, 2012, such maximum potential amount for all open credit default swaps in which the Portfolio is the seller was $369,513,000. |
** | The contract annual fixed rate represents the fixed rate of interest received by the Portfolio (as a seller of protection) or paid by the Portfolio (as a buyer of protection) annually on the notional amount of the credit default swap contract. |
*** | Current market annual fixed rates, utilized in determining the net unrealized appreciation or depreciation as of period end, serve as an indicator of the market’s perception of the current status of the payment/performance risk associated with the credit derivative. The current market annual fixed rate of a particular reference entity reflects the cost, as quoted by the pricing vendor, of selling protection against default of that entity as of period end and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. The higher the fixed rate, the greater the market perceived risk of a credit event involving the reference entity. A rate identified as “Defaulted” indicates a credit event has occurred for the reference entity. |

At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective, the Portfolio is subject to the following risks:
Commodity Risk: The Portfolio invests in commodities-linked derivative investments, including commodity futures contracts and options thereon and forward commodity contracts, that provide exposure to the investment returns of certain commodities. Commodities-linked derivative investments are used to enhance total return and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of commodities.
Credit Risk: The Portfolio enters into credit default swap contracts to manage certain investment risks and/or to enhance total return.
Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
Equity Price Risk: The Portfolio enters into equity index futures and options thereon to enhance total return and/or to manage certain investment risks.
Foreign Exchange Risk: The Portfolio engages in forward foreign currency exchange contracts, options on currencies and cross-currency swaps to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currencies.
Interest Rate Risk: The Portfolio utilizes various interest rate derivatives including futures, interest rate swaps and swaptions, and cross-currency swaps to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in interest rates, and/or to change the effective duration of its portfolio.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts, over-the-counter options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and forward commodity contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the fair value, excluding upfront payments, of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $53,951,435. The aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Portfolio for such liability was $10,575,272 at October 31, 2012.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts, over-the-counter options, forward commodity contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. The Portfolio is not subject to counterparty credit risk with respect to its written options as the Portfolio, not the counterparty, is obligated to perform under such derivatives. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $29,588,378 with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $4,595,387. Such maximum amount would be reduced by any unamortized upfront payments received by the Portfolio. Such amount would be increased by any unamortized upfront payments made by the Portfolio. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio (and Subsidiary) has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio (and Subsidiary) or the counterparty. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk would be reduced by approximately $25,556,000 due to master netting agreements. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred. Because the Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, it may not be able to negotiate terms with its counterparties that are equivalent to those a registered Portfolio may negotiate. As a result, the Subsidiary may have greater exposure to those counterparties than a registered Portfolio.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) by risk exposure at October 31, 2012 was as follows:

The average notional amounts of futures contracts, forward commodity contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $162,963,000, $18,603,000, $1,377,578,000 and $1,227,446,000, respectively.
The average principal amount of purchased currency options contracts, average notional amount of interest rate swaption contracts, average number of purchased index options contracts and average number of purchased commodity options contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $175,281,000, $24,000,000, 116,661,000 contracts and 65 contracts, respectively.
6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. If measured at fair value, borrowings under the line of credit would have been considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 8) at October 31, 2012. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments and Currencies
Investing in securities issued by entities whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities and currencies also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and
Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — continued
securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
8 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio and subsidiary (the “Portfolio”), including the consolidated portfolio of investments as of October 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statement of operations for the year then ended, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the consolidated supplementary data for each of the two years in the period then ended and for the period from the start of business, August 31, 2010, to October 31, 2010. These consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio and subsidiary as of October 31, 2012, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the two years in the period then ended and for the period from the start of business, August 31, 2010, to October 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded, please contact Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122, or contact your financial advisor.

The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the 12-month period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The MSCI World Index,2 a broad measure of global equity market performance, was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012. U.S. stocks were generally fueled by stronger economic growth and falling unemployment. European stocks continued to underperform U.S. issues, but nonetheless moved higher, aided by the Long-Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank (ECB) and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived. As U.S. stock prices decreased, stock prices overseas fell even harder. Contributing factors included renewed concerns over Europe and slowing growth in China.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Hunting for yield in a low interest-rate environment, investors were driven to stocks that offered better yields than bonds. Ongoing action by the ECB also helped the market, particularly the Outright Monetary Transactions program to support sovereign debt.
Additional factors led U.S. stocks to generally outperform their non-U.S. counterparts. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy—which it did in September 2012. Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Amid ongoing European turmoil and a slowdown in Chinese growth, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming U.S. elections, investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy—an impasse that has left the United States rushing toward a fiscal cliff that could drag down the global economy.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax- Managed Global Dividend Income Fund (the Fund) had a total return of 10.74% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV). By contrast, the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI World Index (the Index), had a total return of 9.45% for the period. Relative outperformance by the Fund’s common stock allocation and its preferred securities allocation both contributed to the Fund’s outperformance of the Index.
Performance of the Fund’s common stock allocation was helped by stock selection in the materials, consumer discretionary and consumer staples sectors. Within the materials sector, stock selection in chemicals boosted results versus the Index, as did a relative underweighting and stock selection in the poor-performing metals and mining industry. In consumer discretionary, stock selection among specialty retail stocks, as well as an overweighting in the industry, aided Fund performance versus the Index. An overweight in tobacco stocks, which performed well for the period, and stock selection among beverage stocks contributed to Fund results versus the Index in the consumer discretionary sector.
By contrast, stock selection in the health care, information technology (IT) and industrials sectors detracted from Fund performance versus the Index. Positioning in pharmaceuticals and in health care providers and services hurt Fund results versus the Index in the health care sector, as did avoiding the strong-performing biotechnology industry. Stock selection in communications equipment and an underweight in computers and peripherals stocks, which rose sharply during the period, held back Fund performance versus the Index in the IT sector. Positioning in building products, as well as industrial conglomerates, detracted from Fund results versus the Index in the industrials sector.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had approximately 24% of its total investments in preferred securities (i.e., preferred stocks and corporate bonds and notes). The return of the preferred securities allocation outperformed both the Index and the return of the BofA Merrill Lynch Fixed Rate Preferred Securities Index, an index measuring the overall preferred market. This outperformance relative to the preferred market resulted from several factors. The Fund’s bank holdings contributed to performance after bouncing back from lows reached in the summer of 2011. Capital management actions resulted in several of the Fund’s preferred holdings being tendered or called above market price, as issuers retired older, higher-interest preferred stocks in favor of new offerings that paid lower rates. The Fund also participated in a number of new issues that outperformed the preferred market. In addition, stock selection among high-yield names helped, as high-yield issues rallied during the period in response to investors’ search for yield.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

Tax-Managed Global Dividend Income Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Global Dividend Income Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund’s investment objective is to achieve after-tax total return by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of common and preferred stocks. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning on January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. The value of preferred equity securities that are valued by a pricing service on a bond basis will be adjusted by an income factor, to be determined by the investment adviser, to reflect the next anticipated regular dividend. Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Fund’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Fund’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities.
Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Fund in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Fund may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.

Tax-Managed Global Dividend Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $569,059,242 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2016 ($286,925,838), October 31, 2017 ($258,617,823), and October 31, 2018 ($23,515,581). In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $28,588,854 was utilized to offset net capital gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
F Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
G Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
H Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
I Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make monthly distributions of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any). Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally
Eaton Vance
Tax-Managed Global Dividend Income Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 48,110,360 | | | $ | 59,155,964 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was increased by $218,801 and accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $218,801 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for accretion of market discount, investments in partnerships, distributions from real estate investment trusts (REITs) and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 1,415,130 | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (569,059,242 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 117,534,863 | |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, distributions from REITs, foreign currency transactions, investments in partnerships and accretion of market discount.
3 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by EVM as compensation for management and investment advisory services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.65% of the Fund’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.625% from $500 million up to $1 billion, and is payable monthly. On net assets of $1 billion and over, the annual fee is reduced. The Fund invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s investment adviser fee amounted to $6,406,228 or 0.64% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The administration fee is earned by EVM for administering the business affairs of the Fund and is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $1,508,650. EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $31,413 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $133,279 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s organization receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Fund who are not affiliated with EVM may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund are officers of EVM.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $1,268,315 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate
Eaton Vance
Tax-Managed Global Dividend Income Fund

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $438,654 and $2,628,731 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $4,950,000 and $48,827,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $146,218 and $876,244 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $12,000, $111,000 and $16,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $819,735,648 and $957,477,744, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.

9 Financial Instruments
The Fund may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Fund has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.

At October 31, 2012, the Fund had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
The Fund is subject to foreign exchange risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. Because the Fund holds foreign currency denominated investments, the value of these investments and related receivables and payables may change due to future changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To hedge against this risk, the Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Fund also enters into such contracts to hedge the currency risk of investments it anticipates purchasing.
The Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Fund’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Fund for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the fair value of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $2,294.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Fund invests, including forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Fund would incur due to counterparty risk was $1,767, representing the fair value of such derivatives in an asset position, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $1,767. To mitigate this risk, the Fund has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Fund or the counterparty. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Fund if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) and whose primary underlying risk exposure is foreign exchange risk at October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Fair Value | |
Derivative | | Asset Derivative | | | Liability Derivative | |
| | |
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts | | $ | 1,767 | (1) | | $ | (2,294 | )(2) |
(1) | Statement of Assets and Liabilities location: Receivable for open forward foreign currency exchange contracts; Net unrealized appreciation. |
(2) | Statement of Assets and Liabilities location: Payable for open forward foreign currency exchange contracts; Net unrealized appreciation. |

The effect of derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) on the Statement of Operations and whose primary underlying risk exposure is foreign exchange risk for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Derivative | | Realized Gain (Loss) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | | | Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | |
| | |
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts | | $ | (2,949,672 | )(1) | | $ | (527 | )(2) |
(1) | Statement of Operations location: Net realized gain (loss) – Foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contract transactions. |
(2) | Statement of Operations location: Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) – Foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contracts. |
The average notional amount of forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which is indicative of the volume of this derivative type, was approximately $10,494,000.
10 Line of Credit
The Fund participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Fund solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Fund based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Fund, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Fund did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
11 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Fund, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
12 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Global Dividend Income Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Global Dividend Income Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Global Dividend Income Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Privacy. The Eaton Vance organization is committed to ensuring your financial privacy. Each of the financial institutions identified below has in effect the following policy (“Privacy Policy”) with respect to nonpublic personal information about its customers:
Ÿ | | Only such information received from you, through application forms or otherwise, and information about your Eaton Vance fund transactions will be collected. This may include information such as name, address, social security number, tax status, account balances and transactions. |
Ÿ | | None of such information about you (or former customers) will be disclosed to anyone, except as permitted by law (which includes disclosure to employees necessary to service your account). In the normal course of servicing a customer’s account, Eaton Vance may share information with unaffiliated third parties that perform various required services such as transfer agents, custodians and broker-dealers. |
Ÿ | | Policies and procedures (including physical, electronic and procedural safeguards) are in place that are designed to protect the confidentiality of such information. |
Ÿ | | We reserve the right to change our Privacy Policy at any time upon proper notification to you. Customers may want to review our Privacy Policy periodically for changes by accessing the link on our homepage: www.eatonvance.com. |
Our pledge of privacy applies to the following entities within the Eaton Vance organization: the Eaton Vance Family of Funds, Eaton Vance Management, Eaton Vance Investment Counsel, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc., Eaton Vance Trust Company, Eaton Vance Management’s Real Estate Investment Group and Boston Management and Research. In addition, our Privacy Policy applies only to those Eaton Vance customers who are individuals and who have a direct relationship with us. If a customer’s account (i.e., fund shares) is held in the name of a third-party financial advisor/broker-dealer, it is likely that only such advisor’s privacy policies apply to the customer. This notice supersedes all previously issued privacy disclosures. For more information about Eaton Vance’s Privacy Policy, please call 1-800-262-1122.
Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded, please contact Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122, or contact your financial advisor. Your instructions that householding not apply to delivery of your Eaton Vance documents will be effective within 30 days of receipt by Eaton Vance or your financial advisor.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Eaton Vance Fund and its underlying Portfolio(s) (if applicable) will file a schedule of portfolio holdings on Form N-Q with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The Form N-Q will be available on the Eaton Vance website at www.eatonvance.com, by calling Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Form N-Q may also be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s public reference room in Washington, D.C. (call 1-800-732-0330 for information on the operation of the public reference room).
Proxy Voting. From time to time, funds are required to vote proxies related to the securities held by the funds. The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the 12-month period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The MSCI World Index,2 a broad measure of global equity market performance, was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012. U.S. stocks were generally fueled by stronger economic growth and falling unemployment. European stocks continued to underperform U.S. issues, but nonetheless moved higher, aided by the Long Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank (ECB) and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived. As U.S. stock prices decreased, stock prices overseas fell even harder. Contributing factors included renewed concerns over Europe and slowing growth in China.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Hunting for yield in a low interest-rate environment, investors were driven to stocks that offered better yields than bonds. Ongoing action by the ECB also helped the market, particularly the Outright Monetary Transactions program to support sovereign debt.
Additional factors led U.S. stocks to generally outperform their non-U.S. counterparts. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy — which it did in September 2012. Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Amid ongoing European turmoil and a slowdown in Chinese growth, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming U.S. elections,
investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy — an impasse that has left the United States rushing toward a fiscal cliff that could drag down the global economy.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed International Equity Fund (the Fund) had a total return of 9.34% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV). By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index (the Index), returned 4.61% during the same period.
At the country level, contributors to the Fund’s performance relative to the Index were the Fund’s underweight position in Japan, which underperformed the Index, and its overweight position in Singapore, which outperformed the Index. At the sector level, notable Fund performance contributors versus the Index included the Fund’s overweight position in consumer staples, which outperformed the Index, and its underweight position in materials, which underperformed the Index.
In terms of detractors from the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index, an overweight position in Israel, which underperformed the Index, was a source of weakness. The Fund’s exposure to China and Brazil, neither of which is included in the Index, also detracted from relative performance versus the Index. At the sector level, the Fund’s exposure to the energy sector, which underperformed the Index, hurt relative Fund performance versus the Index.
Continued European debt woes, along with uncertainty regarding U.S. tax and spending policies, continue to concern investors. Will policymakers and banks finally be able to resolve the European fiscal crisis? Will the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing help prevent a slowdown in U.S. growth? Time will tell.
The Fund adjusts its country, sector and individual stock weightings in an effort to seek broad exposure and diversification.7 We believe Parametric’s broadly diversified and disciplined investment process offers a compelling means to potentially take advantage of volatile markets without relying on forecasts of economic and political trends.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period).

The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Tax-Managed International Equity Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (42.5% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio and other income, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary. At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $51,153,850 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. The capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2016 ($11,851,312), October 31, 2017 ($36,830,557) and October 31, 2019 ($2,471,981). In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $718,288 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Redemption Fees — Prior to January 1, 2011 and upon the redemption or exchange of shares by Class A and Class I shareholders within 90 days of the settlement of purchase, a fee of 1% of the current net asset value of these shares was assessed and retained by the Fund for the benefit of the

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
remaining shareholders. The redemption fee was accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital. Effective January 1, 2011, Class A and Class I shares are no longer subject to a redemption fee.
I Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any). Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 628,986 | | | $ | 1,170,865 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was increased by $122,159 and accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $122,159 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for foreign currency gain (loss) and investments in passive foreign investment companies (PFICs). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 937,853 | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (51,153,850 | ) |
Net unrealized depreciation | | $ | (507,773 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, partnership allocations and investments in PFICs.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
Eaton Vance Management (EVM) serves as the administrator to the Fund, but receives no compensation. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $8,917 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $1,454 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 5% and 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, respectively, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $11,748 and $96,155 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $4,560,000 and $11,108,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $3,916 and $32,052 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $200, $3,000 and $200 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and the Shareholders of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed International Equity Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed International Equity Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed International Equity Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to achieve long-term after-tax returns by investing in a diversified portfolio of foreign equity securities. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed International Equity Fund and Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund held an interest of 42.5% and 57.5%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolio’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities based on available market quotations provided by a third party pricing service.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.

E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. Prior to May 1, 2012, the fee was computed at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million and at reduced rates on average daily net assets of $500 million or more. Effective May 1, 2012, BMR contractually agreed to reduce the advisory fee payable to an annual rate of 0.75% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million and at reduced rates on average daily net assets of $500 million or more. This fee reduction cannot be terminated or reduced without the approval of a majority vote of the Trustees of the Portfolio who are not interested persons of BMR or the Portfolio and by the vote of a majority of the holders of interests in the Portfolio. Pursuant to an interim sub-advisory agreement effective May 1, 2012, and a sub-advisory agreement effective August 17, 2012, BMR pays Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC (Parametric), a majority-owned subsidiary of Eaton Vance Corp., a portion of its adviser fee for sub-advisory services provided to the Portfolio. Prior to May 1, 2012, BMR paid Eagle Global Advisors, L.L.C a portion of its adviser fee for sub-advisory services provided to the Portfolio. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $904,479 or 0.88% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $116,394,357 and $119,889,457, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.

4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 98,691,305 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 6,622,306 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (2,791,026 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 3,831,280 | |
The net unrealized appreciation on foreign currency at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $52,507.
5 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
6 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
7 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tax-Managed International Equity Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

IMPORTANT NOTICES
Privacy. The Eaton Vance organization is committed to ensuring your financial privacy. Each of the financial institutions identified below has in effect the following policy (“Privacy Policy”) with respect to nonpublic personal information about its customers:
Ÿ | | Only such information received from you, through application forms or otherwise, and information about your Eaton Vance fund transactions will be collected. This may include information such as name, address, social security number, tax status, account balances and transactions. |
Ÿ | | None of such information about you (or former customers) will be disclosed to anyone, except as permitted by law (which includes disclosure to employees necessary to service your account). In the normal course of servicing a customer’s account, Eaton Vance may share information with unaffiliated third parties that perform various required services such as transfer agents, custodians and broker-dealers. |
Ÿ | | Policies and procedures (including physical, electronic and procedural safeguards) are in place that are designed to protect the confidentiality of such information. |
Ÿ | | We reserve the right to change our Privacy Policy at any time upon proper notification to you. Customers may want to review our Privacy Policy periodically for changes by accessing the link on our homepage: www.eatonvance.com. |
Our pledge of privacy applies to the following entities within the Eaton Vance organization: the Eaton Vance Family of Funds, Eaton Vance Management, Eaton Vance Investment Counsel, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc., Eaton Vance Trust Company, Eaton Vance Management’s Real Estate Investment Group and Boston Management and Research. In addition, our Privacy Policy applies only to those Eaton Vance customers who are individuals and who have a direct relationship with us. If a customer’s account (i.e., fund shares) is held in the name of a third-party financial advisor/broker-dealer, it is likely that only such advisor’s privacy policies apply to the customer. This notice supersedes all previously issued privacy disclosures. For more information about Eaton Vance’s Privacy Policy, please call 1-800-262-1122.
Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded, please contact Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122, or contact your financial advisor. Your instructions that householding not apply to delivery of your Eaton Vance documents will be effective within 30 days of receipt by Eaton Vance or your financial advisor.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Eaton Vance Fund and its underlying Portfolio(s) (if applicable) will file a schedule of portfolio holdings on Form N-Q with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The Form N-Q will be available on the Eaton Vance website at www.eatonvance.com, by calling Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Form N-Q may also be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s public reference room in Washington, D.C. (call 1-800-732-0330 for information on the operation of the public reference room).
Proxy Voting. From time to time, funds are required to vote proxies related to the securities held by the funds. The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The S&P 500 Index2 was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012, fueled by stronger economic growth in the fourth quarter, falling unemployment, the Long-Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank, and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived, instigated by renewed concerns in Europe, slowing growth in China and political uncertainty in the United States with the upcoming presidential election.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Several factors appeared to be driving a market rally that defied U.S. economic data. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy — which it did in mid-September 2012. Second, investors were hunting for yield in a historically low interest-rate environment, and many were driven to stocks that offered higher yields than bonds.
Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Europe’s ongoing debt crisis led investors to move money out of European stocks and bonds. With emerging markets in Asia largely leveraged to the Chinese economy, the slowdown in Chinese growth made markets throughout Asia appear less attractive. Amid this global economic turmoil, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well-regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, U.S. stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming elections, investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy — an impasse that has left the economy rushing headlong toward a self-imposed fiscal cliff.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Fund (the Fund) had a total return of 9.11% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV).
By comparison, the Fund’s primary benchmark, the Russell 3000 Growth Index (the Index), returned 12.76% for the period.
The Fund underperformed the Index due primarily to stock selection. Sector allocation overall was a modest positive offset. The environment of economic uncertainty and market volatility during the period challenged the Fund’s focus on long-term growth opportunities. In general, investors favored large-cap, dividend-paying stocks rather than the mid-cap growth stocks to which the Fund had greater exposure. Nevertheless, the Fund achieved positive absolute returns in seven of the eight economic sectors in which it was invested. The Index recorded positive returns in all 10 of its sectors.
The biggest detractor from the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index was the health care sector. A major software provider in the health care technology industry was one of the Fund’s worst performing individual stocks after a new product was delayed. Stock selection was also a drag on the Fund’s results versus the Index in the energy sector. The Fund’s holdings in a mid-sized independent oil and gas exploration and production company hurt the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index when it reported disappointing financial results. An underweight in the underperforming oil, gas & consumable fuels industry partially offset stock selection in the energy sector. The financials sector also hurt the Fund’s relative results versus the Index due to stock selection. The Fund’s real estate investment trust (REIT) holdings were notable underperformers due to both stock selection and an underweight position.
On the positive side, stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector made the biggest contribution to the Fund’s performance versus the Index. In the hotels, restaurants & leisure industry a leading international fast food chain was one of the Fund’s best performing stocks during the period. A major online travel agency specializing in European hotel bookings was another holding contributing to Fund performance. The Fund’s holdings in the information technology sector also outperformed, thanks to stock selection as well as stock allocation. The stock contributing the most to Fund performance for the 12-month period was a major supplier of semiconductors to the mobile phone and tablet market. In the internet software and services industry, a leading provider of cloud computing services to businesses was another contributor. Stock selection in the consumer staples sector, led by the beverages industry, also boosted the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted.. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |

Russell 3000 Growth Index is an unmanaged index of the broad growth segment of the U.S. equity universe. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
3 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. After-tax returns are calculated using certain assumptions, including using the highest historical individual federal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state/local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on a shareholder’s tax situation and the actual characterization of distributions and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to shareholders who hold shares in tax-deferred accounts or shares held by nontaxable entities. Return After Taxes on Distributions may be the same as Return Before Taxes for the same period because no taxable distributions were made during that period. Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares may be greater than or equal to Return After Taxes on Distributions for the same period because of losses realized on the sale of Fund shares. The Fund’s after-tax returns also may reflect foreign tax credits passed by the Fund to its shareholders. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |

Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (58.0% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $14,947,648 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. The capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2016 ($1,195,698) and October 31, 2017 ($13,751,950). In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $4,122,670 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
Additionally, at October 31, 2012, the Fund had a net investment loss of $535,537 incurred after December 31, 2011. This net investment loss is treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s taxable year ending October 31, 2013.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into

October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any). Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was increased by $1,921, accumulated net investment loss was decreased by $77,327 and paid-in capital was decreased by $75,406 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for net operating losses, distributions from real estate investment trusts and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (14,947,648 | ) |
Late year ordinary losses | | $ | (535,537 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 6,606,498 | |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales and partnership allocations.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
The administration fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $86,966. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $6,600 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $4,228 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $97,298 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or

Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Fund

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $21,503 and $121,487 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $549,000 and $1,579,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $7,168 and $40,496 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received less than $100 and approximately $7,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A and Class B shareholders, respectively, and no CDSCs paid by Class C shareholders.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $1,254,712 and $10,457,395, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to achieve long-term, after-tax returns. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Fund and Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund held an interest of 58.0% and 42.0%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at valuation time as reported by the Options Price Reporting Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or board of trade for non-U.S. listed options. Over-the-counter options are valued by a third party pricing service using techniques that consider factors including the value of the underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying instrument and the period of time until option expiration. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolio’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities based on available market quotations provided by a third party pricing service.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
I Written Options — Upon the writing of a call or a put option, the premium received by the Portfolio is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are closed are added to or offset against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. When an index option is exercised, the Portfolio is required to deliver an amount of cash determined by the excess of the strike price of the option over the value of the index (in the case of a put) or the excess of the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) at contract termination. If a put option on a security is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the securities purchased by the Portfolio. The Portfolio, as a writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities or other assets may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the securities or other assets underlying the written option. The Portfolio may also bear the risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist.
J Purchased Options — Upon the purchase of a call or put option, the premium paid by the Portfolio is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment. The amount of the investment is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased, in accordance with the Portfolio’s policies on investment valuations discussed above. As the purchaser of an index option, the Portfolio has the right to receive a cash payment equal to any depreciation in the value of the index below the strike price of the option (in the case of a put) or equal to any appreciation in the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) as of the valuation date of the option. If an option which the Portfolio had purchased expires on the stipulated expiration date, the Portfolio will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. If the Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction, the Portfolio will realize a gain or loss, depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. If the Portfolio exercises a put option on a security, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. If the Portfolio exercises a call option on a security, the cost of the security which the Portfolio purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.65% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, and is payable monthly. On net assets of $500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $657,989 or 0.65% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $82,227,958 and $103,308,016, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 80,303,940 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 15,271,921 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (1,569,203 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 13,702,718 | |
5 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include written options and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered. A summary of written call options at October 31, 2012 is included in the Portfolio of Investments.
Written options activity for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Number of Contracts | | | Premiums Received | |
Outstanding, beginning of year | | | 1,640 | | | $ | 138,382 | |
Options written | | | 7,398 | | | | 621,220 | |
Options terminated in closing purchase transactions | | | (422 | ) | | | (33,351 | ) |
Options exercised | | | (2,315 | ) | | | (202,094 | ) |
Options expired | | | (6,066 | ) | | | (495,653 | ) |
| | |
Outstanding, end of year | | | 235 | | | $ | 28,504 | |
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
The Portfolio is subject to equity price risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objective. The Portfolio enters into option transactions or a combination of option transactions on individual securities that it holds to generate premium income and/or to seek to reduce the Portfolio’s exposure to a decline in the stock price. The Portfolio is not subject to counterparty credit risk with respect to its written options as the Portfolio, not the counterparty, is obligated to perform under such derivatives.

The effect of derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) on the Statement of Operations and whose primary underlying risk exposure is equity price risk for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Derivative | | Realized Gain (Loss) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | | | Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | |
Purchased options | | $ | (42,786 | )(1) | | $ | — | (2) |

(1) | Statement of Operations location: Net realized gain (loss) – Investment transactions and Written options, respectively. |
(2) | Statement of Operations location: Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) – Investments and Written options, respectively. |
6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Tax-Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tax- Managed Multi-Cap Growth Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The S&P 500 Index2 was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012, fueled by stronger economic growth in the fourth quarter, falling unemployment, the Long-Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank, and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived, instigated by renewed concerns in Europe, slowing growth in China and political uncertainty in the United States with the upcoming presidential election.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Several factors appeared to be driving a market rally that defied U.S. economic data. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy — which it did in mid-September 2012. Second, investors were hunting for yield in a historically low interest-rate environment, and many were driven to stocks that offered higher yields than bonds.
Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Europe’s ongoing debt crisis led investors to move money out of European stocks and bonds. With emerging markets in Asia largely leveraged to the Chinese economy, the slowdown in Chinese growth made markets throughout Asia appear less attractive. Amid this global economic turmoil, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well-regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, U.S. stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming elections, investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy — an impasse that has left the economy rushing headlong toward a self-imposed fiscal cliff.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Fund (the Fund) had a total return
of 10.30% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV). By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index (the Index), returned 12.08% for the period.
The Fund underperformed the Index largely due to sector and industry allocation. Stock selection made a positive contribution to overall results versus the Index, partially offsetting the allocation decisions. While the broad stock market recorded solid gains for the 12-month period, the nature of the rally favored low-quality stocks. For the period, the Fund achieved positive absolute returns in six of the nine economic sectors in which it was invested. The Index recorded positive returns in nine of its 10 sectors.
The Fund’s worst-performing sector was materials, where stock selection was the primary detractor from relative performance versus the Index. In the metals and mining industry, the Fund’s holding in a leading supplier of rare earth metals suffered when slowing global growth and growing competition from China negatively impacted company results. The Fund’s overweight in the underperforming energy sector also detracted from relative performance versus the Index, with an overweight in the oil, gas & consumable fuels industry accounting for much of the underperformance relative to the Index. The Fund’s holdings in the industrials sector hurt relative results versus the Index due largely to stock selection, particularly in the aerospace & defense and professional services industries. In the latter, a leading financial consulting firm was a detractor from Fund performance versus the Index when merger and acquisition activity lagged expectations.
On the positive side, the Fund’s holdings in the financials sector outperformed the overall Index thanks to stock selection. In the capital markets industry, a leading mortgage servicing company was one of the largest contributors to Fund performance. The company had benefited from large banks exiting the mortgage servicing business in the wake of the financial crisis. The Fund’s holdings in the consumer discretionary sector also contributed to relative performance versus the Index due primarily to stock selection. The Fund’s holdings in the specialty retail industry made a notable contribution to performance versus the Index, while an overweight in the outperforming distributors industry also helped. In the information technology sector, stock selection overcame an overweight position to boost the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index. Among individual stocks in the sector, a major supplier of semiconductors to the mobile phone and tablet market contributed to Fund performance. Also boosting performance for the 12-month period was the Fund’s avoidance of the underperforming telecommunication services sector.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
2 | S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of large-cap stocks commonly used as a measure of U.S. stock market performance. Russell 2000 Index is an unmanaged index of 2,000 U.S. small-cap stocks. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
3 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. After-tax returns are calculated using certain assumptions, including using the highest historical individual federal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state/local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on a shareholder’s tax situation and the actual characterization of distributions and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to shareholders who hold shares in tax-deferred accounts or shares held by nontaxable entities. Return After Taxes on Distributions may be the same as Return Before Taxes for the same period because no taxable distributions were made during that period. Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares may be greater than or equal to Return After Taxes on Distributions for the same period because of losses realized on the sale of Fund shares. The Fund’s after-tax returns also may reflect foreign tax credits passed by the Fund to its shareholders. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (72.5% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $20,601,526 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. The capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2017. In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $8,143,094 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any). Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $52,975, accumulated net investment loss was decreased by $503,928 and paid-in capital was decreased by $556,903 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for net operating losses, distributions from real estate investment trusts (REITs), investments in partnerships and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (20,601,526 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 12,987,160 | |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, partnership allocations, distributions from REITs and investments in partnerships.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
Eaton Vance Management (EVM) serves as the administrator to the Fund, but receives no compensation. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services.

EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $14,641 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $2,080 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $203,247 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $15,694 and $162,305 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and

Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $7,806,000 and $12,849,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $5,232 and $54,102 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $200, $4,000 and $2,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.

For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $3,258,074 and $41,569,712, respectively.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to achieve long-term, after-tax returns by investing in a diversified portfolio of publicly traded equity securities of small-cap companies. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Fund and Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund held an interest of 72.5% and 27.5%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolio’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities based on available market quotations provided by a third party pricing service.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.

October 31, 2012

E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.625% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million and is payable monthly. On net assets of $500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $971,111 or 0.625% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $85,299,786 and $123,045,453, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 116,876,736 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 25,979,706 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (4,913,385 | ) |

5 Restricted Securities
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio owned the following security (representing 0.0% of net assets) which was restricted as to public resale and not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (excluding Rule 144A securities). The Portfolio has various registration rights (exercisable under a variety of circumstances) with respect to this security. The value of this security is determined based on valuations provided by brokers when available, or if not available, it is valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees.

6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
7 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments, which are carried at value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Asset Description | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3** | | | Total | |
| | | | |
Common Stocks | | $ | 134,307,453 | * | | $ | — | | | $ | — | | | $ | 134,307,453 | |
Special Warrants | | | — | | | | — | | | | 0 | * | | | 0 | |
Short-Term Investments | | | — | | | | 3,635,604 | | | | — | | | | 3,635,604 | |
| | | | |
Total Investments | | $ | 134,307,453 | | | $ | 3,635,604 | | | $ | 0 | | | $ | 137,943,057 | |
* | The level classification by major category of investments is the same as the category presentation in the Portfolio of Investments. |
** | None of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 assets, individually or collectively, had a material impact on the Portfolio. |
Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the year in relation to net assets were not significant and accordingly, a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for the year ended October 31, 2012 is not presented. At October 31, 2012, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year then ended.

October 31, 2012
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tax-Managed Small-Cap Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The S&P 500 Index2 was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012, fueled by stronger economic growth in the fourth quarter, falling unemployment, the Long-Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank, and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived, instigated by renewed concerns in Europe, slowing growth in China and political uncertainty in the United States with the upcoming presidential election.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Several factors appeared to be driving a market rally that defied U.S. economic data. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy — which it did in mid-September 2012. Second, investors were hunting for yield in a historically low interest-rate environment, and many were driven to stocks that offered higher yields than bonds.
Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Europe’s ongoing debt crisis led investors to move money out of European stocks and bonds. With emerging markets in Asia largely leveraged to the Chinese economy, the slowdown in Chinese growth made markets throughout Asia appear less attractive. Amid this global economic turmoil, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well-regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, U.S. stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming elections, investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy — an impasse that has left the economy rushing headlong toward a self-imposed fiscal cliff.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund (the Fund) had a total return of 7.51% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV). By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index (the Index), returned 14.47% for the period.
The Fund underperformed the Index due to stock selection as well as sector and industry allocation. While the broad stock market recorded solid gains for the 12-month period, the nature of the rally favored low-quality stocks. The Fund achieved positive absolute returns in seven of the nine economic sectors in which it was invested. The Index recorded positive returns in eight of its 10 sectors.
An underweight position as well as stock selection hurt the Fund’s relative results in financials, which was the top-performing sector in the Index. In the materials sector, the Fund’s position in a major supplier of carbon for water filtration detracted from Fund performance after the company fell short of expectations. The energy sector also negatively impacted the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index due to both a sector overweight and stock selection. Energy was the weakest-performing Index sector for the 12-month period. The Fund’s holding in an oil exploration and production company detracted from Fund performance, as slowing global economic growth negatively impacted the company’s shares.
Conversely, stock selection as well as an underweight in information technology contributed to the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index. A large information technology outsourcing company with government exposure was one of the Fund’s holdings contributing to performance for the period. The company’s stock price rose partly on expectations that it would gain new business from the implementation of health care reform. The Fund’s holdings in the consumer discretionary sector also outperformed the Index for the period thanks to stock selection. The Fund’s holdings in the textiles, apparel and luxury goods industry contributed positively to results versus the Index, led by a leading manufacturer of children’s clothing. The utilities sector was also a contributor to the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index, as stock selection overcame an overweight position. Within utilities, the Fund avoided industries most impacted by price competition from falling natural gas prices.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
2 | S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of large-cap stocks commonly used as a measure of U.S. stock market performance. Russell 2000 Value Index is an unmanaged index of U.S. small-cap value stocks. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
3 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. After-tax returns are calculated using certain assumptions, including using the highest historical individual federal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state/local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on a shareholder’s tax situation and the actual characterization of distributions and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to shareholders who hold shares in tax-deferred accounts or shares held by nontaxable entities. Return After Taxes on Distributions may be the same as Return Before Taxes for the same period because no taxable distributions were made during that period. Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares may be greater than or equal to Return After Taxes on Distributions for the same period because of losses realized on the sale of Fund shares. The Fund’s after-tax returns also may reflect foreign tax credits passed by the Fund to its shareholders. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers four classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning on January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (52.4% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund had a net investment loss of $107,918 incurred after December 31, 2011. This net loss is treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s taxable year ending October 31, 2013.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Long-term capital gains | | $ | 1,343,650 | | | $ | 1,873,659 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net investment loss was increased by $414 and accumulated net realized gain was increased by $414 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed long-term capital gains | | $ | 2,454,238 | |
Late year ordinary losses | | $ | (107,918 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 9,076,116 | |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales and partnership allocations.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
The administration fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $54,723. EVM (and the sub-adviser of the Portfolio, Fox Asset Management LLC (Fox), prior to the termination of the sub-advisory agreement effective March 19, 2012) has agreed to reimburse the Fund’s expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (related to ordinary operating expenses only) exceed 1.45%, 2.20%, 2.20% and 1.20% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A, Class B, Class C and Class I, respectively. This agreement may be changed or terminated after February 28, 2013. Pursuant to this agreement, EVM and Fox were allocated $200,130 in total of the Fund’s operating expenses for the year ended October 31, 2012. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $2,804 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $3,252 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund and Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.

4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $58,455 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class B and Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of each respective class, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by each respective class. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $12,140 and $55,033 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amounts of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class B and Class C Plans were approximately $68,000 and $638,000, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to that class. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $4,047 and $18,344 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within six years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class B and Class C Plans. CDSCs received on Class B and Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $20, $500 and $300 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $6,095,551 and $7,401,466, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to achieve long-term after-tax returns by investing in a diversified portfolio of value stocks of small-cap companies. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Fund and Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund held an interest of 52.4% and 47.6%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.

2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of Eaton Vance Management (EVM), as compensation for management and investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, and is payable monthly. On net assets of $500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. Prior to March 19, 2012, BMR delegated the investment management of the Portfolio to Fox Asset Management LLC (Fox), an affiliate of EVM, and paid Fox a portion of its advisory fee for sub-advisory services provided to the Portfolio. Effective March 19, 2012, the portfolio managers of the Portfolio became dual employees of BMR and Fox and the sub-advisory agreement was terminated. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $718,910 or 1.00% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $38,281,880 and $47,643,118, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 51,789,057 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 18,609,755 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (290,613 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 18,319,142 | |
5 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
6 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments, which are carried at value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| | | | |

Total Investments | | $ | 66,854,025 | | | $ | 3,254,174 | | | $ | — | | | $ | 70,108,199 | |
* | The level classification by major category of investments is the same as the category presentation in the Portfolio of Investments. |
The Portfolio held no investments or other financial instruments as of October 31, 2011 whose fair value was determined using Level 3 inputs. At October 31, 2012, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year then ended.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tax-Managed Small-Cap Value Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address.

Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded, please contact Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122, or contact your financial advisor.

The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The S&P 500 Index2 was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012, fueled by stronger economic growth in the fourth quarter, falling unemployment, the Long-Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank, and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived, instigated by renewed concerns in Europe, slowing growth in China and political uncertainty in the United States with the upcoming presidential election.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Several factors appeared to be driving a market rally that defied U.S. economic data. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy — which it did in mid-September 2012. Second, investors were hunting for yield in a historically low interest-rate environment, and many were driven to stocks that offered higher yields than bonds.
Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Europe’s ongoing debt crisis led investors to move money out of European stocks and bonds. With emerging markets in Asia largely leveraged to the Chinese economy, the slowdown in Chinese growth made markets throughout Asia appear less attractive. Amid this global economic turmoil, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well-regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, U.S. stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming elections, investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy — an impasse that has left the economy rushing headlong toward a self-imposed fiscal cliff.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Value Fund (the Fund) had a total return of 15.14% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV). By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index (the Index), returned 16.89% for the period. The Fund underperformed the benchmark primarily due to sector and industry allocation. Stock selection overall contributed to the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index, partially offsetting the loss generated from allocation decisions. Despite trailing the Index, the Fund achieved positive absolute returns in all 10 economic sectors in which it was invested. The Index recorded positive absolute returns in nine of those 10 sectors.
On a sector basis, the biggest detractor from relative Fund performance versus the Index was financials. Stock selection in the consumer finance industry was a notable drag on results versus the Index, along with stock selection and an underweight in diversified financial services. In consumer finance, the Fund’s lack of exposure to a major credit card company hurt results versus the Index, as the stock outperformed. In the energy sector, stock selection hurt the Fund’s relative results versus the Index. Among individual energy stocks, a major coal producer held in the Fund was a poor performer after coal prices fell due to price competition from plentiful natural gas supplies. The materials sector was also a drag on the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index. In particular, an overweight in the underperforming metals and mining industry detracted from Fund performance versus the Index, although stock selection partially offset the negative impact.
In terms of contributors to performance versus the Index, stock selection made information technology (IT) the Fund’s top-performing sector relative to the Index. The Fund benefited from management’s early recognition of the trend toward mobile communications and tablet computers, as this segment continued its rapid growth during the 12-month period. A major supplier of smart phones and tablet computers was one of the Fund’s holdings contributing the most to performance. In addition, the Fund’s avoidance of the communications equipment and semiconductors & semiconductor equipment industries, both underperformers, contributed to Fund performance versus the Index in the IT sector. The health care sector also boosted the Fund’s relative results versus the Index, particularly the Fund’s overweight in the biotechnology industry, which outperformed during the period. Two leading biopharmaceutical companies were among the contributors to Fund performance. In the utilities sector, stock selection contributed to the Fund’s relative performance versus the Index.

See Endnotes and Additional Disclosures in this report. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
2 | S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index of large-cap stocks commonly used as a measure of U.S. stock market performance. Russell 1000 Value Index is an unmanaged index of U.S. large-cap value stocks. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
3 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. After-tax returns are calculated using certain assumptions, including using the highest historical individual federal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state/local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on a shareholder’s tax situation and the actual characterization of distributions and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to shareholders who hold shares in tax-deferred accounts or shares held by nontaxable entities. Return After Taxes on Distributions may be the same as Return Before Taxes for the same period because no taxable distributions were made during that period. Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares may be greater than or equal to Return After Taxes on Distributions for the same period because of losses realized on the sale of Fund shares. The Fund’s after-tax returns also may reflect foreign tax credits passed by the Fund to its shareholders. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Value Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Tax-Managed Value Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (88.0% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $135,193 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. The capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2017. In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $236,724,004 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains (reduced by available capital loss carryforwards from prior years, if any). Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
| | |
Distributions declared from: | | | | | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 20,011,730 | | | $ | 15,669,230 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was increased by $2,388,551, accumulated undistributed net investment income was decreased by $268,810 and paid-in capital was increased by $2,657,361 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for distributions from real estate investment trusts (REITs), redemptions in-kind and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 10,973,658 | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (135,193 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 273,514,156 | |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, partnership allocations, investments in partnerships and distributions from REITs.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
The administration fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $1,678,178. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $39,982 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $18,504 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $1,430,611 for Class A shares.

The Fund also has in effect a distribution plan for Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. The Fund will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are equivalent to the sum of (i) 6.25% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund for Class C shares sold, plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of 1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD of Class C, reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5) and amounts theretofore paid or payable to EVD by Class C. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $1,022,328 for Class C shares, representing 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares. At October 31, 2012, the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD calculated under the Class C Plan was approximately $23,543,000.
Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD and, as such, are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $340,776 for Class C shares.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% generally is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. CDSCs received on Class C redemptions are paid to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated under the Fund’s Class C Plan. CDSCs received on Class C redemptions when no Uncovered Distribution Charges exist are credited to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $2,000 and $3,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $23,807,592 and $754,821,023, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Sales and redemptions of Class I shares include shares purchased and redeemed in connection with the ReFlow liquidity program, a program designed to provide an alternative liquidity source for mutual funds experiencing net redemptions of their shares. The Fund began participating in the ReFlow liquidity program on October 23, 2012. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Value Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Value Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Value Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Tax-Managed Value Portfolio

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Tax-Managed Value Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to achieve long-term, after-tax returns by investing in a diversified portfolio of value stocks. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Value Fund and Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Equity Asset Allocation Fund held an interest of 88.0% and 12.0%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolio’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund) and Eaton Vance Cash Collateral Fund, LLC (Cash Collateral Fund), affiliated investment companies managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund and Cash Collateral Fund generally value their investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund and Cash Collateral Fund may value their investment securities based on available market quotations provided by a third party pricing service.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.

E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement and subsequent fee reduction agreement between the Portfolio and BMR, the fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.65% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.625% on net assets of $500 million but less than $1 billion, 0.60% on net assets of $1 billion but less than $2 billion, 0.575% on net assets of $2 billion but less than $5 billion and 0.555% on net assets of $5 billion and over, and is payable monthly. The fee reduction cannot be terminated without the consent of the Trustees and shareholders. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $7,758,267 or 0.63% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $465,195,729 and $1,194,651,137, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012. Included in sales is $7,252,943 representing the value of securities delivered in payment of redemptions in-kind.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 563,565,429 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 297,896,633 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | — | |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 297,896,633 | |
The net unrealized appreciation on foreign currency transactions at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $136,504.

5 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.
6 Securities Lending Agreement
The Portfolio has established a securities lending agreement with SSBT as securities lending agent in which the Portfolio lends portfolio securities to qualified borrowers in exchange for collateral consisting of either cash or U.S. Government securities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. Cash collateral is invested in Cash Collateral Fund. The Portfolio earns interest on the amount invested in Cash Collateral Fund but it must pay (and at times receive from) the broker a loan rebate fee computed as a varying percentage of the collateral received. Income earned by the Portfolio from its investment in Cash Collateral Fund, prior to rebates and fees, for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $12,399. At October 31, 2012, the value of the securities loaned and the value of the collateral received amounted to $15,054,180 and $15,016,250, respectively. In the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio is subject to potential loss if it is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. The Portfolio bears risk in the event that invested collateral is not sufficient to meet its obligations due on loans.
7 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Tax-Managed Value Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Tax-Managed Value Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tax-Managed Value Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
The U.S. floating-rate loan market generated solid results for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2012, as measured by the 8.48% return of the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index,2 a broad barometer of the asset class. Returns of the Index reflected an increase in loan prices, plus investment income.
Throughout the past 12 months, the floating-rate market exhibited resilience amid low U.S. economic growth and uncertainty regarding U.S. fiscal policy. This resilience was due to favorable market technical and fundamental conditions. The net supply of floating-rate loans was moderate, as loan repayments by issuers helped offset new issue supply coming to market. At the same time, demand strengthened. Improved economic data and the U.S. Federal Reserve’s pledge to keep interest rates low appeared to have fueled investors’ appetite for higher-yielding alternatives to government bonds. Other investors turned to floating-rate loans for protection against potentially rising interest rates. In the institutional market, buying by pension funds, hedge funds, structured vehicles, and other institutional investors, such as value crossover strategies, also expanded as the period progressed. For the period overall, the modest growth in the overall supply of loans was easily absorbed due to widespread investor demand.
In terms of issuer fundamentals, improving corporate balance sheets and better-than-expected earnings growth also helped bolster loans. Furthermore, the default rate in the market remained well below longer-term averages, ending October 31, 2012 at 1.1% by principal amount on a last-12-months basis, according to S&P Leveraged Commentary & Data (LCD).
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Advantage Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares at net asset value (NAV) had a total return of 9.31%. By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index (the Index), gained 8.48% during the period.
Contributing to relative performance versus the Index was the Fund’s use of leverage5 because it amplified the Fund’s positive performance. The Index does not use leverage.
Underweight exposures to utilities and telecommunications helped bolster relative results versus the Index, as these segments lagged the broad loan market.
The Fund’s underweight to the lower-quality segment of the market detracted from performance relative to the Index. Specifically, the Fund’s holdings were biased toward higher-quality BB- and B-rated8 loans. At the same time, the Fund had an underweight to CCC-rated loans. For the year, BB-rated loans in the Index returned 6.60%, B-rated loans in the Index gained 10.12% and CCC-rated loans in the Index rose 9.93%. Within the BB- and B-rated space, the Fund had a more pronounced overweight to the higher-rated BB-ratings tier, providing a further drag on relative results versus the Index.
In terms of industry allocation, underweight exposure to publishing and financial intermediaries — which outperformed the broad market — and overweight exposure to the leisure goods/activities/movies segment — which underperformed the broad market — also were a drag on performance relative to the Index.
See Endnotes and Additional Disclosures in this report.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted. For performance as of the most recent month end, please refer to www.eatonvance.com.

1 | The views expressed in this report are those of the portfolio manager(s) and are current only through the date stated at the top of this page. These views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions, and Eaton Vance and the Fund(s) disclaim any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied upon as investment advice and, because investment decisions are based on many factors, may not be relied upon as an indication of trading intent on behalf of any Eaton Vance fund. This commentary may contain statements that are not historical facts, referred to as “forward looking statements”. The Fund’s actual future results may differ significantly from those stated in any forward looking statement, depending on factors such as changes in securities or financial markets or general economic conditions, the volume of sales and purchases of Fund shares, the continuation of investment advisory, administrative and service contracts, and other risks discussed from time to time in the Fund’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. |
2 | S&P/LSTA Leveraged Loan Index is an unmanaged index of the institutional leveraged loan market. Unless otherwise stated, index returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable sales charges, commissions, expenses, taxes or leverage, as applicable. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. |
3 | Total Returns at NAV do not include applicable sales charges. If sales charges were deducted, the returns would be lower. Total Returns shown with maximum sales charge reflect the stated maximum sales charge. Unless otherwise stated, performance does not reflect the deduction of taxes on Fund distributions or redemptions of Fund shares. Performance for periods prior to 3/15/08 reflects performance of Eaton Vance Prime Rate Reserves, the Fund’s predecessor. |
4 | Total Annual Fund Operating Expense ratio is as stated in the Fund’s most recent prospectus. Net expense ratio excludes interest expense on borrowings. |
5 | Total leverage is shown as a percentage of the Fund’s aggregate net assets plus borrowings outstanding. The Fund employs leverage through borrowings. Use of leverage creates an opportunity for income, but creates risks including greater volatility of NAV. The cost of borrowings rises and falls with changes in short-term interest rates. The Fund may be required to maintain prescribed asset coverage for its borrowings and may be required to reduce its borrowings if Fund asset values decline. |
6 | Fund invests in an affiliated investment company (Portfolio) with the same objective(s) and policies as the Fund. References to investments are to the Portfolio’s holdings. |
7 | Excludes cash and cash equivalents. |
8 | Ratings are based on Moody’s, S&P or Fitch, as applicable. Credit ratings are based largely on the rating agency’s investment analysis at the time of rating and the rating assigned to any particular security is not necessarily a reflection of the issuer’s current financial condition. The rating assigned to a security by a rating agency does not necessarily reflect its assessment of the volatility of a security’s market value or of the liquidity of an investment in the security. If securities are rated differently by the rating agencies, the higher rating is applied. Ratings of BBB or higher by Standard and Poor’s or Fitch (Baa or higher by Moody’s) are considered to be investment grade quality. |

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

Floating-Rate Advantage Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Advantage Fund (the Fund) is a diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund offers five classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class B and Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). The Advisers Class and Class I shares are generally sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after their purchase as described in the Fund’s prospectus. Beginning January 1, 2012, Class B shares are only available for purchase upon exchange from another Eaton Vance fund or through reinvestment of distributions. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Senior Debt Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (96.9% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had a capital loss carryforward of $214,956,373 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. Such capital loss carryforward will expire on October 31, 2015 ($10,899,103), October 31, 2016 ($124,652,882), October 31, 2017 ($50,458,629), October 31, 2018 ($28,308,325) and October 31, 2019 ($637,434). In addition, such capital loss carryforward cannot be utilized prior to the utilization of new capital losses, if any, created after October 31, 2012.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, a capital loss carryforward of $5,078,413 was utilized to offset net realized gains by the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into
Eaton Vance
Floating-Rate Advantage Fund
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Redemption Fees — Upon the redemption or exchange of shares by Advisers Class, Class A and Class I shareholders within 90 days of the settlement of purchase, a fee of 1% of the current net asset value of these shares was assessed and retained by the Fund for the benefit of the remaining shareholders. The redemption fee was accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital. Effective January 1, 2011, Advisers Class, Class A and Class I shares are no longer subject to a redemption fee.
I Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the years ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, | |
| | 2012 | | | 2011 | |
|
Distributions declared from: | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 112,189,071 | | | $ | 78,612,866 | |
Tax return of capital | | $ | — | | | $ | 4,359,035 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was increased by $7,566,010, accumulated distributions in excess of net investment income was decreased by $582,618 and paid-in capital was increased by $6,983,392 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for swap contracts, mixed straddles, defaulted bond interest and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 4,497,945 | |
Capital loss carryforward | | $ | (214,956,373 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 24,004,647 | |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (5,652,974 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, partnership allocations and the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders.
3 Transactions with Affiliates
The administration fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the administration fee amounted to $2,167,496. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $158,999 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received $98,308 as its portion of the sales charge on
Eaton Vance
Floating-Rate Advantage Fund

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Advisers Class, Class A, Class B and Class C shares (see Note 4) and contingent deferred sales charges (see Note 5).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Advisers Class shares and Class A shares (Advisers/Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Advisers/Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Advisers Class and Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $140,009 for Advisers Class shares and $1,906,488 for Class A shares.
The Fund also has in effect distribution plans for Class B shares (Class B Plan) and Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.40% and 0.60% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares, respectively, for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $273,064 and $3,962,122 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
Pursuant to the Class B and Class C Plans, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.20% and 0.15% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C shares, respectively. Although there is no present intention to do so, Class C shares could pay service fees of up to 0.25% annually upon Trustee approval. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $136,532 and $990,531 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) generally is imposed on redemptions of Class B shares made within four years of purchase and on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. The CDSC for Class B shares is imposed at declining rates that begin at 3% in the case of redemptions in the first year of purchase, declining to 2.5% in the second year, 2.0% in the third year, 1.0% in the fourth year and 0.0% thereafter. Class C shares are subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received approximately $100, $29,000 and $46,000 of CDSCs paid by Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $1,489,597,099 and $191,767,616, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Advantage Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Advantage Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Advantage Fund as of October 31, 2012, 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 then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

| (1) | Senior floating-rate interests (Senior Loans) often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrowers to repay at their election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. However, Senior Loans will have an expected average life of approximately two to four years. The stated interest rate represents the weighted average interest rate of all contracts within the senior loan facility and includes commitment fees on unfunded loan commitments, if any. Senior Loans typically have rates of interest which are redetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and secondarily, the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the “Prime Rate”) and the certificate of deposit (“CD”) rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders. |
| (2) | Represents a payment-in-kind security which may pay all or a portion of interest in additional par. |
| (3) | This Senior Loan will settle after October 31, 2012, at which time the interest rate will be determined. |
| (4) | Amount is less than 0.05%. |
| (5) | For fair value measurement disclosure purposes, security is categorized as Level 3 (see Note 10). |
| (6) | Unfunded or partially unfunded loan commitments. See Note 1G for description. |
| (7) | Security exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be sold in certain transactions (normally to qualified institutional buyers) and remain exempt from registration. At October 31, 2012, the aggregate value of these securities is $81,542,814 or 2.5% of the Portfolio’s net assets. |
| (8) | Security was acquired in connection with a restructuring of a Senior Loan and may be subject to restrictions on resale. |
| (9) | Non-income producing security. |
(10) | Restricted security (see Note 5). |
(11) | Affiliated investment company available to Eaton Vance portfolios and funds which invests in high quality, U.S. dollar denominated money market instruments. The rate shown is the annualized seven-day yield as of October 31, 2012. |

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Senior Debt Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Portfolio’s investment objective is to provide a high level of current income. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Floating-Rate Advantage Fund and Eaton Vance Strategic Income Fund held an interest of 96.9% and 3.1%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Interests in senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) for which reliable market quotations are readily available are valued generally at the average mean of bid and ask quotations obtained from a third party pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value by the investment adviser under procedures approved by the Trustees. In fair valuing a Senior Loan, the investment adviser utilizes one or more of the valuation techniques described in (i) through (iii) below to assess the likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the loan underlying such Senior Loan relative to yields on other Senior Loans issued by companies of comparable credit quality. If the investment adviser believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using a matrix pricing approach that considers the yield on the Senior Loan. If the investment adviser believes there is not a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using analyses that include, but are not limited to: (i) a comparison of the value of the borrower’s outstanding equity and debt to that of comparable public companies; (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis; or (iii) when the investment adviser believes it is likely that a borrower will be liquidated or sold, an analysis of the terms of such liquidation or sale. In certain cases, the investment adviser will use a combination of analytical methods to determine fair value, such as when only a portion of a borrower’s assets are likely to be sold. In conducting its assessment and analyses for purposes of determining fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser will use its discretion and judgment in considering and appraising relevant factors. Fair value determinations are made by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio based on information available to such managers. The portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may not possess the same information about a Senior Loan borrower as the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. At times, the fair value of a Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may vary from the fair value of the same Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of the Portfolio. The fair value of each Senior Loan is periodically reviewed and approved by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee and by the Trustees based upon procedures approved by the Trustees. Junior Loans (i.e., subordinated loans and second lien loans) are valued in the same manner as Senior Loans.
Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Interest rate swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap quotations provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
Senior Debt Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Financial Statements — continued
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
C Income — Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Fees associated with loan amendments are recognized immediately. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Unfunded Loan Commitments — The Portfolio may enter into certain credit agreements all or a portion of which may be unfunded. The Portfolio is obligated to fund these commitments at the borrower’s discretion. These commitments are disclosed in the accompanying Portfolio of Investments. At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover these commitments.
H Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
I Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
K Interest Rate Swaps — Pursuant to interest rate swap agreements, the Portfolio either makes floating-rate payments based on a benchmark interest rate in exchange for fixed-rate payments or the Portfolio makes fixed-rate payments in exchange for payments on a floating benchmark interest rate. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap

Notes to Financial Statements��— continued
are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The value of the swap is determined by changes in the relationship between two rates of interest. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from movements in interest rates.
L Statement of Cash Flows — The cash amount shown in the Statement of Cash Flows of the Portfolio is the amount included in the Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities and represents the cash on hand at its custodian and does not include any short-term investments.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement and subsequent fee reduction agreement between the Portfolio and BMR, the fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Portfolio’s average daily gross assets up to and including $1 billion, 0.45% over $1 billion up to and including $2 billion, and at reduced rates on daily gross assets over $2 billion, and is payable monthly. The fee reduction cannot be terminated without the consent of the Trustees and shareholders. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee totaled $12,140,518 or 0.56% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations and including maturities, paydowns and principal repayments on Senior Loans, aggregated $2,661,988,443 and $986,428,813, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 3,919,230,235 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 51,504,591 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (28,365,452 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 23,139,139 | |
The net unrealized depreciation on swap contracts and foreign currency transactions at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $2,214,988.
5 Restricted Securities
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio owned the following securities (representing less than 0.1% of net assets) which were restricted as to public resale and not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (excluding Rule 144A securities). The Portfolio has various registration rights (exercisable under a variety of circumstances) with respect to these securities. The value of these securities is determined based on valuations provided by brokers when available, or if not available, they are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees.

6 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | $ | (950,947 | ) |
At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and its use of derivatives, the Portfolio is subject to the following risks:
Foreign Exchange Risk: Because the Portfolio holds foreign currency denominated investments, the value of these investments and related receivables and payables may change due to future changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To hedge against this risk, the Portfolio enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts. The Portfolio also enters into such contracts to hedge the currency risk of investments it anticipates purchasing.
Interest Rate Risk: Because the Portfolio holds fixed-rate bonds, the value of these bonds may decrease if interest rates rise. To hedge against this risk, the Portfolio enters into interest rate swap contracts.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the fair value of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $2,263,896. The aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Portfolio for such liability was $3,980,586 at October 31, 2012.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $30,296, representing the fair value of such derivatives in an asset position, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $17,100. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio or the counterparty. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred.
The fair value of open derivative instruments (not considered to be hedging instruments for accounting disclosure purposes) by risk exposure at October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | Fair Value | |
Risk | | Derivative | | Asset Derivative | | | Liability Derivative | |

7 Revolving Credit Agreement
The Portfolio has entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement, as amended (the Agreement) with conduit lenders and a bank that allows it to borrow up to $840 million ($640 million prior to June 18, 2012) and to invest the borrowings in accordance with its investment practices. Borrowings under the Agreement are secured by the assets of the Portfolio. Interest is charged at a rate above the conduits’ commercial paper issuance rate and is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Portfolio also pays a program fee of 0.65% (0.60% prior to February 16, 2012) per annum on its outstanding borrowings to administer the facility and a commitment fee of 0.35% (0.45% prior to February 16, 2012) per annum if outstanding loan amount is greater than 50% of total facility size; 0.45% if outstanding loan amount is less than or equal to 50% of total facility size. Program and commitment fees for the year ended October 31, 2012 totaled $5,685,604 and are included in interest expense in the Statement of Operations. In connection with the structuring of the Agreement, the Portfolio was obligated to pay a fee of $1 million in quarterly installments of $50,000 through February 2012, of which no balance remains outstanding at October 31, 2012. At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had borrowings outstanding under the Agreement of $425,000,000 at an interest rate of 0.27%. The carrying amount of the borrowings at October 31, 2012 approximated its fair value. If measured at fair value, borrowings under the Agreement would have been considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (see Note 10) at October 31, 2012. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the average borrowings under the Agreement and the average annual interest rate were $489,870,765 and 0.32%, respectively.
8 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
9 Credit Risk
The Portfolio invests primarily in below investment grade floating-rate loans and floating-rate debt obligations, which are considered speculative because of the credit risk of their issuers. Changes in economic conditions or other circumstances are more likely to reduce the capacity of issuers of these securities to make principal and interest payments. Such companies are more likely to default on their payments of interest and principal owed than issuers of investment grade bonds. An economic downturn generally leads to a higher non-payment rate, and a loan or other debt obligation may lose significant value before a default occurs. Lower rated investments also may be subject to greater price volatility than higher rated investments. Moreover, the specific collateral used to secure a loan may decline in value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the loan’s value.

10 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Asset Description | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3* | | | Total | |

Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the period in relation to net assets were not significant and accordingly, a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for the year ended October 31, 2012 is not presented. At October 31, 2012, there were no investments transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 during the year then ended.

October 31, 2012
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Senior Debt Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Senior Debt Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities and senior loans owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers, and selling or agent banks; where replies were not received from brokers and selling or agent banks, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Senior Debt Portfolio as of October 31, 2012, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the supplementary data for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
During the 12 months ended October 31, 2012, financial markets worldwide climbed, despite a less-than-ideal global economic backdrop. In the United States, the economy grew at a disappointing annual pace of 2.7% or less, and unemployment remained stubbornly high—dropping below 8% in September 2012 for the first time in more than three years. A pickup in the U.S. housing market and improved consumer sentiment, however, offered some encouragement. By contrast, economies in the U.K., European Union and many emerging markets weakened, pressured by the sovereign debt crisis in Europe and signs of slowing growth in China.
Financial markets responded positively, as central banks in the United States and Europe undertook stimulus measures aimed at averting further economic deterioration. Last fall, the U.S. Federal Reserve (the Fed) initiated “Operation Twist,” a program aimed at lowering borrowing costs for consumers and businesses, while the European Central Bank (ECB) put in place a long-term refinancing operation giving struggling eurozone banks access to very low interest-rate, three-year loans. By the New Year, the U.S. economy was showing signs of improvement and the fiscal situation in Europe was starting to stabilize, buoying the financial markets. However, investors grew risk-averse in the second quarter, as U.S. economic momentum faded and the sovereign debt crisis in Europe deepened. In the summer, markets benefited, as investors correctly anticipated more monetary stimulus measures in the United States and additional efforts in Europe to address the sovereign debt crisis. The ECB subsequently pledged to do whatever was necessary to save the euro and outlined an aggressive government bond repurchase program to help fiscally strapped eurozone countries. In the United States, the Fed announced a third round of U.S. quantitative easing — involving the open-ended purchase of agency mortgage-backed securities — along with plans to keep short-term interest rates near zero through mid-2015. Markets retreated late in the period amid mounting worries over the U.S. presidential election and looming fiscal cliff.
Low interest rates and central bank intervention helped the S&P 500 Index2 close the period with a 15.21% gain, while the MSCI World Index was up 9.45%. Fixed-income markets also moved solidly higher, with the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Index climbing 5.25%. Longer-term bonds and higher-risk assets did especially well. For the year, the BofA Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Index returned 13.18%, compared to 3.53% for the Barclays Capital U.S. Government Bond Index.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund’s (the Fund) Class A shares
had a total return of 5.44% at net asset value (NAV), outperforming the 5.25% gain of its primary benchmark, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Index (the Index). Nearly all of the Fund’s underlying Portfolios contributed positively to performance.
The Fund’s biggest contributions to performance versus the Index came from the Floating Rate Portfolio, whose focus is floating-rate loans, and the Boston Income Portfolio, which invests in high-yield bonds. At period-end, nearly half of the Fund’s assets were in these two Portfolios, which gained as investors flocked to the higher-yields of securities issued by below-investment-grade companies. In addition, prices on floating-rate and high-yield issues appreciated, as credit spreads—the difference between the yields on lower- and higher-quality bonds—tightened. Both sectors also benefited from investors’ growing appetite for risk in the wake of central bank initiatives.
Foreign exposure further aided results versus the Index, led by an allocation to the Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio, which focuses on long and short positions in sovereign debt and currencies around the world. The Portfolio gained in part due to foreign currencies appreciating against the U.S. dollar. To a lesser extent, the Fund’s stake in the option absolute return strategy within the MSAM Completion Portfolio contributed to performance versus the Index. The strategy, which involves a series of put and call option spread combinations on the S&P 500 Index, performed well during a period of relatively low market volatility.
Conservative positioning within the Fund’s targeted volatility range detracted from performance versus the Index, despite the strong performance of credit markets relative to equities. During the year, the Fund reduced weightings in both the option absolute return strategy within the MSAM Completion Portfolio and in the Boston Income Portfolio, while adding to the lower-risk, market-neutral Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio as well as to the Floating Rate Portfolio. Last spring, the Fund eliminated a small stake in the diversified currency income strategy. The timing worked well, as the Fund was out of the strategy—which was invested more heavily in emerging-market than developed-market currencies—before the market downturn in May 2012 caused investors to flee emerging markets. Adding modestly to government bonds and establishing a small position in gold had little impact on performance. The Fund lost ground by owning S&P 500 Index put options within the MSAM Completion Portfolio, purchased to reduce overall portfolio risk. The cost of owning the contracts detracted from performance versus the Index, as stocks rallied.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

Class I | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,019.00 | | | $ | 6.19 | ** | | | 1.22 | % |
* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolios. |
** | Absent an allocation of certain expenses to affiliates, expenses would be higher. |

1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund (the Fund) is a non-diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund commenced operations on October 31, 2011. The Fund offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class C shares are sold at net asset value and are generally subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 5). Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Net investment income, other than class-specific expenses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class’s paid shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund’s investment objective is total return. The Fund currently pursues its objective by investing substantially all of its investable assets in interests in the following eight portfolios managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) or its affiliates: Boston Income Portfolio, Floating Rate Portfolio, Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio, Global Macro Portfolio, Government Obligations Portfolio, International Income Portfolio, MSAM Completion Portfolio and Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio (the Portfolios), which are Massachusetts business trusts. The value of the Fund’s investments in the Portfolios reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of Boston Income Portfolio, Floating Rate Portfolio, Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio, Global Macro Portfolio, Government Obligations Portfolio, International Income Portfolio, MSAM Completion Portfolio and Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio (0.3%, 0.3%, 1.3%, 0.1%, 0.3%, less than 0.05%, 99.9% and 4.8%, respectively, at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolios. A copy of each Portfolio’s financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website (www.sec.gov), at the Commission’s public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund’s principal underwriter, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), by calling 1-800-262-1122.
The Fund seeks to gain exposure to the commodity markets, in whole or in part, through investments in Eaton Vance AM Commodity Subsidiary, Ltd. (the Subsidiary), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands with the same objective and investment policies and restrictions as the Fund. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. The net assets of the Subsidiary at October 31, 2012 were $1,056,631 or 1.3% of the Fund’s consolidated net assets. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — The valuation policies common to the Portfolios are as follows:
Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days and excluding most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities as noted below) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less (excluding those that are non-U.S. dollar denominated, which typically are valued by a pricing service or dealer quotes) are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolios’ Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Precious metals are valued at the New York composite mean quotation reported by Bloomberg at the valuation time. Exchange-traded options (other than FLexible EXchange traded options) are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices at valuation time as reported by the Options Price Reporting Authority for U.S. listed options or by the relevant exchange or board of trade for non-U.S. listed options. Over-the-counter options (including options on securities, indices and foreign currencies) and FLexible EXchange traded options traded at the Chicago Board Options Exchange are valued by a third party pricing service using techniques that consider factors including the value of the underlying instrument, the volatility of the underlying instrument and the period of time until option expiration. Financial and commodities futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific

Multi-Strategy All Market Fund

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements — continued
settlement periods and the Portfolios’ forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Forward commodity contracts are generally valued based on the price of the underlying futures or forward contract provided by the exchange on which the underlying instruments are traded or if unavailable, based on forward rates provided by broker/dealers. Interest rate swaps, cross-currency swaps and options on interest rate swaps (“swaptions”) are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. Such pricing service valuations are based on the present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract. Future cash flows are discounted to their present value using swap rates provided by electronic data services or by broker/dealers. Alternatively, swaptions may be valued at the valuation provided by the counterparty, so determined using the same techniques as those employed by the pricing service. Credit default swaps are normally valued using valuations provided by a third party pricing service. The pricing services employ electronic data processing techniques to determine the present value based on credit spread quotations obtained from broker/dealers and expected default recovery rates determined by the pricing service using proprietary models. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolios in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolios might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
Additional valuation policies for Global Macro Absolute Return Advantage Portfolio, Global Macro Portfolio, Government Obligations Portfolio and International Income Portfolio are as follows: Most seasoned, fixed-rate 30-year mortgage-backed securities are valued through the use of the investment adviser’s matrix pricing system, which takes into account bond prices, yield differentials, anticipated prepayments and interest rates provided by dealers.
Additional valuation policies for Boston Income Portfolio and Floating Rate Portfolio are as follows: Interests in senior floating-rate loans (Senior Loans) for which reliable market quotations are readily available are valued generally at the average mean of bid and ask quotations obtained from a third party pricing service. Other Senior Loans are valued at fair value by the investment adviser under procedures approved by the Trustees. In fair valuing a Senior Loan, the investment adviser utilizes one or more of the valuation techniques described in (i) through (iii) below to assess the likelihood that the borrower will make a full repayment of the loan underlying such Senior Loan relative to yields on other Senior Loans issued by companies of comparable credit quality. If the investment adviser believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using a matrix pricing approach that considers the yield on the Senior Loan. If the investment adviser believes there is not a reasonable likelihood of full repayment, the investment adviser will determine fair value using analyses that include, but are not limited to: (i) a comparison of the value of the borrower’s outstanding equity and debt to that of comparable public companies; (ii) a discounted cash flow analysis; or (iii) when the investment adviser believes it is likely that a borrower will be liquidated or sold, an analysis of the terms of such liquidation or sale. In certain cases, the investment adviser will use a combination of analytical methods to determine fair value, such as when only a portion of a borrower’s assets are likely to be sold. In conducting its assessment and analyses for purposes of determining fair value of a Senior Loan, the investment adviser will use its discretion and judgment in considering and appraising relevant factors. Fair value determinations are made by the portfolio managers of the Portfolios based on information available to such managers. The portfolio managers of other funds managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may not possess the same information about a Senior Loan borrower as the portfolio managers of the Portfolios. At times, the fair value of a Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of other portfolios managed by the investment adviser that invest in Senior Loans may vary from the fair value of the same Senior Loan determined by the portfolio managers of the Portfolios. The fair value of each Senior Loan is periodically reviewed and approved by the investment adviser’s Valuation Committee and by the Trustees based upon procedures approved by the Trustees. Junior Loans (i.e., subordinated loans and second lien loans) are valued in the same manner as Senior Loans.
The Portfolios may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by EVM. Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
In addition to investing in the Portfolios, the Fund may invest directly in securities. The valuation policies of the Fund are consistent with the valuation policies of the Portfolios.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss includes the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolios, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund. Interest income on direct investments in securities is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements — continued
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
2 Distributions to Shareholders
The Fund declares dividends daily to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Distributions are generally paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains are made at least annually. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the reinvestment date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the consolidated financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
The tax character of distributions declared for the year ended October 31, 2012 was as follows:
| | | | |
| | Year Ended October 31, 2012 | |
| |
Distributions declared from: | | | | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 1,662,148 | |
Long-term capital gains | | $ | 340,750 | |
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was decreased by $327,423, accumulated undistributed net investment income was decreased by $237,868 and paid-in capital was decreased by $89,555 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for foreign currency gain (loss), swap contracts, paydown gain (loss), futures contracts, option contracts, premium amortization, tax accounting for straddle transactions, a Portfolio’s investment in a subsidiary, investment in passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), investment in partnerships, defaulted bond interest, and non-deductible expenses. These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements — continued
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed long-term capital gains | | $ | 72,624 | |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 819,635 | |
Other temporary differences | | $ | (20 | ) |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to tax accounting for straddle transactions, wash sales, futures contracts, swap contracts, foreign currency transactions, premium amortization, partnership allocations, defaulted bond interest, option contracts, investment in PFICs and the timing of recognizing distributions to shareholders.
3 Investment Adviser and Administration Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser and administration fee is earned by EVM, as compensation for investment advisory and administrative services rendered to the Fund and the Subsidiary. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 0.615% of the Fund’s consolidated average daily net assets that are not invested in other investment companies for which EVM or its affiliates serve as investment adviser or administrator (“Investable Assets”) up to $500 million and is payable monthly. On Investable Assets of $500 million or more, the annual fee is reduced. To the extent the Fund’s assets are invested in other investment companies managed by EVM or its affiliates, the Fund is allocated its share of such investment companies’ investment adviser fee. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s allocated portion of the investment adviser fee paid by the Portfolios totaled $406,899 and the investment adviser and administration fee paid by the Fund on Investable Assets amounted to $2,933. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund’s investment adviser and administration fee, including the investment adviser fee allocated from the Portfolios, was 0.72% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
EVM has agreed to reimburse the Fund’s expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (relating to ordinary operating expenses only and including management fees and other expenses associated with the Fund’s investment in an affiliated investment fund) exceed 1.35%, 2.10%, and 1.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A, Class C and Class I, respectively. This agreement may be changed or terminated after February 28, 2013. Pursuant to this agreement, EVM was allocated $197,398 of the Fund’s operating expenses for the year ended October 31, 2012.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $757 in sub-transfer agent fees. The Fund was informed that EVD, an affiliate of EVM, received $660 as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares for the year ended October 31, 2012. EVD also received distribution and service fees from Class A and Class C shares (see Note 6).
Trustees and officers of the Fund and the Portfolios who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolios are officers of the above organizations.
4 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations aggregated $5,556,431 and $4,747,034, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
5 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Fund, including the Subsidiary, at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 812,781 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 88,263 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | — | |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 88,263 | |
6 Distribution Plans
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $129,569 for Class A shares.
Eaton Vance
Multi-Strategy All Market Fund

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements — continued
The Fund also has in effect a distribution plan for Class C shares (Class C Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund pays EVD amounts equal to 0.75% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares for providing ongoing distribution services and facilities to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund paid or accrued to EVD $90 for Class C shares.
Pursuant to the Class C Plan, the Fund also makes payments of service fees to EVD, financial intermediaries and other persons in amounts equal to 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares. Service fees paid or accrued are for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. They are separate and distinct from the sales commissions and distribution fees payable to EVD. Service fees paid or accrued for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $30 for Class C shares.
7 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 1% generally is imposed on redemptions of Class C shares made within one year of purchase. Class A shares may be subject to a 1% CDSC if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received no CDSCs paid by Class A and Class C shareholders.

11 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund’s investment and investments in the Portfolios were valued based on Level 1 inputs. The Fund held no investments as of October 31, 2011, the date it commenced operations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund and subsidiary (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust), including the consolidated portfolio of investments as of October 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statement of operations and the consolidated financial highlights for the year then ended and the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for the year then ended and for the period of the start of business commencing on and ending on October 31, 2011. These consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit procedures include confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements and consolidated financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund and subsidiary as of October 31, 2012, and the results of their operations and financial highlights for the year then ended and the changes in their net assets for the year then ended and for the period of the start of business commencing on and ending on October 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance1
Economic and Market Conditions
As the 12-month period began, investors appeared to worry about intensifying debt problems in Europe, high U.S. unemployment and a Congressional deadlock that left businesses perplexed about the direction of tax and regulatory policy. The MSCI World Index,2 a broad measure of global equity market performance, was relatively flat in November 2011.
Beginning in mid-December 2011, however, an equity rally took hold and continued into early April 2012. U.S. stocks were generally fueled by stronger economic growth and falling unemployment. European stocks continued to underperform U.S. issues, but nonetheless moved higher, aided by the Long-Term Refinancing Operation announced by the European Central Bank (ECB) and what the markets perceived as a successful restructuring of Greek debt. Then in May 2012, the third annual mid-year economic slowdown arrived. As U.S. stock prices decreased, stock prices overseas fell even harder. Contributing factors included renewed concerns over Europe and slowing growth in China.
But despite a slowdown in consumer spending, weakening employment data and downward revisions of growth expectations, global equities moved upward intermittently from June through mid-October 2012. Hunting for yield in a low interest-rate environment, investors were driven to stocks that offered higher yields than bonds. Ongoing action by the ECB also helped the market, particularly the Outright Monetary Transactions program to support sovereign debt.
Additional factors led U.S. stocks to generally outperform their non-U.S. counterparts. First, investors anticipated that worsening economic news would prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to initiate another round of quantitative easing to stimulate the economy — which it did in September 2012. Finally, in an increasingly global marketplace, a case could be made that the U.S. market was relatively attractive versus many other world markets for much of the period. Amid ongoing European turmoil and a slowdown in Chinese growth, the U.S. market was one of the few places investors could find an economy that was growing (albeit slowly); a liquid, transparent and generally well-regulated market; and an opportunity to find companies with large cash reserves and solid profit growth.
In the final weeks of the period, however, stocks gave back some of their gains as the market seemed to have come full circle; amid uncertainty about the upcoming U.S. elections, investors once again worried about a Congressional deadlock on tax policy — an impasse that has left the United States rushing toward a fiscal cliff that could drag down the U.S. and global economies.
During the 12-month period, foreign currency values relative to the U.S. dollar demonstrated great disparity, depending on geographical region and perceived economic strength. Developed currencies tied to Europe’s economic crisis generally fell, while currencies associated with the more fiscally stable
dollar bloc countries (Australian, New Zealand and Canadian Dollar) generally experienced mild appreciation. Meanwhile, the commodities market, as measured by the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index Total Return, fell. While the grains sector rallied strongly, those gains were more than offset by large declines in the softs sector (e.g., coffee, cotton and sugar) and by the continuing collapse in the value of natural gas.
Fund Performance
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, Parametric Structured Absolute Return Fund (the Fund) had a total return of 1.40% for Class A shares at net asset value (NAV). By comparison, the Fund’s benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index (the Index), returned 0.08% during the period.
The Fund consisted of five substrategies representing regional equities, currencies and commodities. Each substrategy targeted a complete hedge against primary market exposure or beta neutrality on a stand-alone basis with the most relevant liquid benchmark. Beta is a measure of the volatility of a security or portfolio in relation to the market as a whole. In order of contribution to the Fund’s performance versus the Index during the period, the five substrategies were:
1) Structured U.S. equities hedged with the S&P 500 Index; 2) Structured Emerging Markets Core equities hedged with MSCI Emerging Markets Index; 3) Structured International equities hedged with MSCI EAFE Index; 4) Structured Commodities hedged with the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index Total Return; and 5) Structured Developed Currencies hedged with the U.S. Dollar Index. All five substrategies contributed positively to Fund performance versus the Index.
The Structured U.S. equities substrategy benefited from a structural low-volatility focus and particularly selection within the energy sector, while underweights to mega-cap stocks and to the financials sector detracted from Fund performance versus the Index.
The Structured Emerging Markets Core equities substrategy benefited from a structural underweight to Brazil, while a structural underweight to China was the largest detractor from Fund performance versus the Index.
The Structured International equities substrategy benefited from both a large underweight to Japan and low-volatility-focused security selection within that country. Overweights to Spain and Italy were among the largest detractors from Fund performance versus the Index.
The Structured Commodities substrategy benefited from an underweight to natural gas and an overweight to gasoline, while an underweight to soybeans was the largest detractor from Fund performance versus the Index.
The Structured Developed Currencies substrategy benefited primarily from the euro’s loss of value, while detractors from Fund performance versus the Index were generally modest, led by the appreciation of the Israeli shekel — both relative to other developed currencies.

Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in net asset value (NAV) or offering price (as applicable) with all distributions reinvested. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance less than one year is cumulative. Performance is for the stated time period only; due to market volatility, the Fund’s current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. Returns are before taxes unless otherwise noted.

Fund Expenses
Example: As a Fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and redemption fees (if applicable); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of Fund investing and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (May 1, 2012 – October 31, 2012).
Actual Expenses: The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual Fund expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year (before expenses), which is not the actual Fund return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the 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) or redemption fees (if applicable). Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would be higher.

* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for the indicated Class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/366 (to reflect the one-half year period). The Example assumes that the $1,000 was invested at the net asset value per share determined at the close of business on April 30, 2012. The Example reflects the expenses of both the Fund and the Portfolio. |
** | Absent an allocation of certain expenses to affiliates, the expenses would be higher. |

Notes to Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Eaton Vance Parametric Structured Absolute Return Fund (the Fund) is a non-diversified series of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust (the Trust). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund commenced operations on October 31, 2011. The Fund offers two classes of shares. Class A shares are generally sold subject to a sales charge imposed at time of purchase. Class I shares are sold at net asset value and are not subject to a sales charge. Each class represents a pro-rata interest in the Fund, but votes separately on class-specific matters and (as noted below) is subject to different expenses. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income and losses, other than class-specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class of shares differs in its distribution plan and certain other class-specific expenses. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio (the Portfolio), a Massachusetts business trust, having the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (23.3% at October 31, 2012). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The consolidated financial statements of the Portfolio, including the consolidated portfolio of investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income — The Fund’s net investment income or loss consists of the Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income or loss of the Portfolio, less all actual and accrued expenses of the Fund.
C Federal Taxes — The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its net investment income, and all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
At October 31, 2012, the Fund, for federal income tax purposes, had current year deferred capital losses of $668,417 which will reduce its taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investment transactions, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders, which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax. The current year deferred capital losses are treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s next taxable year.
In addition to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, the Fund may also be required to recognize its pro-rata share of the capital gains taxes incurred by the Portfolio. In doing so, the daily net asset value would reflect the Fund’s pro-rata share of the estimated reserve for such taxes incurred by the Portfolio.
As of October 31, 2012, the Fund had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
D Expenses — The majority of expenses of the Trust are directly identifiable to an individual fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific fund are allocated taking into consideration, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the funds.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Fund. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Fund maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Fund’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statement of Operations.
F Use of Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G Indemnifications — Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust (such as the Trust) could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Trust’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Fund shareholders and the By-laws provide that the Trust shall assume the defense on behalf of any Fund shareholders. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Fund property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been a shareholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred.
H Other — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Dividends to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
2 Distributions to Shareholders
It is the present policy of the Fund to make at least one distribution annually (normally in December) of all or substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute annually all or substantially all of its net realized capital gains. Distributions are declared separately for each class of shares. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the same class of the Fund at the net asset value as of the ex-dividend date or, at the election of the shareholder, receive distributions in cash. The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital. For tax purposes, distributions from short-term capital gains are considered to be from ordinary income.
During the year ended October 31, 2012, accumulated net realized loss was increased by $248,510 and accumulated undistributed net investment income was increased by $248,510 due to differences between book and tax accounting, primarily for swap contracts, investment in the Subsidiary, investments in passive foreign investment companies (PFICs) and foreign currency gain (loss). These reclassifications had no effect on the net assets or net asset value per share of the Fund.
As of October 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis were as follows:
| | | | |
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 308,441 | |
Deferred capital losses | | $ | (668,417 | ) |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 627,295 | |
The differences between components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax basis and the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities are primarily due to wash sales, partnership allocations, futures contracts, foreign currency transactions and investments in PFICs.
3 Investment Adviser and Administration Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser and administration fee is earned by Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as compensation for investment advisory and administrative services rendered to the Fund. The fee is computed at an annual rate of 1.00% of the Fund’s average daily net assets that are not invested in other investment companies for which EVM or its affiliates serve as investment adviser or administrator (“Investable Assets”) up to $500 million, and is payable monthly. On Investable Assets of $500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. Pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement, EVM pays Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC (Parametric), a majority-owned subsidiary of Eaton Vance Corp., a portion of its adviser and administration fee for sub-advisory services provided to the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund incurred no adviser and administration fee on Investable Assets. To the extent the Fund’s assets are invested in the Portfolio, the Fund is allocated its share of the Portfolio’s adviser fee. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report.
EVM and Parametric have agreed to reimburse the Fund’s expenses to the extent that total annual operating expenses (relating to ordinary expenses only) exceed 1.55% and 1.30% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for Class A and Class I, respectively. This agreement may be changed or terminated after February 28, 2013. Pursuant to this agreement, EVM and Parametric were allocated $160,311 in total of the Fund’s operating expenses for the year ended October 31, 2012.
EVM serves as the sub-transfer agent of the Fund and receives from the transfer agent an aggregate fee based upon the actual expenses incurred by EVM in the performance of these services. For the year ended October 31, 2012, EVM earned $1,128 in sub-transfer agent fees. Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), an affiliate of EVM and the Fund’s principal underwriter, received distribution and service fees from Class A shares (see Note 4).
Trustees and officers of the Fund who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the investment adviser and administration fee. Certain officers and Trustees of the Fund and the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
4 Distribution Plan
The Fund has in effect a distribution plan for Class A shares (Class A Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to the Class A Plan, the Fund pays EVD a distribution and service fee of 0.25% per annum of its average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares for distribution services and facilities provided to the Fund by EVD, as well as for personal services and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution and service fees paid or accrued to EVD for the year ended October 31, 2012 amounted to $28,098 for Class A shares.

Notes to Financial Statements — continued
5 Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
Class A shares may be subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) if redeemed within 18 months of purchase (depending on the circumstances of purchase). Generally, the CDSC is based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of purchase. No charge is levied on shares acquired by reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions. No CDSC is levied on shares which have been sold to EVM or its affiliates or to their respective employees or clients and may be waived under certain other limited conditions. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Fund was informed that EVD received no CDSCs paid by Class A shareholders.
6 Investment Transactions
For the year ended October 31, 2012, increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $63,855,794 and $2,781,047, respectively.
7 Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund’s Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value). Such shares may be issued in a number of different series (such as the Fund) and classes. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:
| | | | |
Class A | | Period Ended October 31, 2012(1) | |

October 31, 2012
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust and Shareholders of Eaton Vance Parametric Structured Absolute Return Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Eaton Vance Parametric Structured Absolute Return Fund (the “Fund”) (one of the funds constituting Eaton Vance Mutual Funds Trust) as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations and financial highlights for the year then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets for the year then ended and for the period of the start of business commencing on and ending on October 31, 2011. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eaton Vance Parametric Structured Absolute Return Fund as of October 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations and financial highlights for the year then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets for the year then ended and for the period of the start of business commencing on and ending on October 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio
October 31, 2012
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1 Significant Accounting Policies
Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio (the Portfolio) is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The Portfolio commenced operations on November 1, 2011. The Portfolio’s investment objective is total return. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio. At October 31, 2012, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy Absolute Return Fund, Eaton Vance Multi-Strategy All Market Fund and Eaton Vance Parametric Structured Absolute Return Fund held an interest of 67.7%, 4.8% and 23.3%, respectively, in the Portfolio.
The Portfolio seeks to gain exposure to the commodity markets, in whole or in part, through investments in PSAR Commodity Subsidiary, Ltd. (the Subsidiary), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Portfolio organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands with the same objective and investment policies and restrictions as the Portfolio. The Portfolio may invest up to 25% of its total assets in the Subsidiary. The net assets of the Subsidiary at October 31, 2012 were $12,537,014 or 4.8% of the Portfolio’s consolidated net assets. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation — Equity securities (including common shares of closed-end investment companies) listed on a U.S. securities exchange generally are valued at the last sale or closing price on the day of valuation or, if no sales took place on such date, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices therefore on the exchange where such securities are principally traded. Equity securities listed on the NASDAQ Global or Global Select Market generally are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Unlisted or listed securities for which closing sales prices or closing quotations are not available are valued at the mean between the latest available bid and asked prices or, in the case of preferred equity securities that are not listed or traded in the over-the-counter market, by a third party pricing service that will use various techniques that consider factors including, but not limited to, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark yields, broker/dealer quotes, quotes of underlying common stock, issuer spreads, as well as industry and economic events. Debt obligations (including short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of more than sixty days) are generally valued on the basis of valuations provided by third party pricing services, as derived from such services’ pricing models. Inputs to the models may include, but are not limited to, reported trades, executable bid and asked prices, broker/dealer quotations, prices or yields of securities with similar characteristics, benchmark curves or information pertaining to the issuer, as well as industry and economic events. The pricing services may use a matrix approach, which considers information regarding securities with similar characteristics to determine the valuation for a security. Short-term obligations purchased with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are generally valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities and currencies are valued in U.S. dollars, based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing service. The pricing service uses a proprietary model to determine the exchange rate. Inputs to the model include reported trades and implied bid/ask spreads. The daily valuation of exchange-traded foreign securities generally is determined as of the close of trading on the principal exchange on which such securities trade. Events occurring after the close of trading on foreign exchanges may result in adjustments to the valuation of foreign securities to more accurately reflect their fair value as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. When valuing foreign equity securities that meet certain criteria, the Portfolio’s Trustees have approved the use of a fair value service that values such securities to reflect market trading that occurs after the close of the applicable foreign markets of comparable securities or other instruments that have a strong correlation to the fair-valued securities. Financial futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are generally valued at the mean of the average bid and average asked prices that are reported by currency dealers to a third party pricing service at the valuation time. Such third party pricing service valuations are supplied for specific settlement periods and the Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent settlement period reported by the third party pricing service. Total return swaps are valued by obtaining the value of the underlying index or instrument and reference interest rate from a third party pricing service. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees of the Portfolio in a manner that fairly reflects the security’s value, or the amount that the Portfolio might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale in the ordinary course. Each such determination is based on a consideration of relevant factors, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. These factors may include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security’s disposition, the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies or entities, quotations or relevant information obtained from broker/dealers or other market participants, information obtained from the issuer, analysts, and/or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), an analysis of the company’s or entity’s financial condition, and an evaluation of the forces that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.
The Portfolio may invest in Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC (Cash Reserves Fund), an affiliated investment company managed by Eaton Vance Management (EVM). Cash Reserves Fund generally values its investment securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation technique in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This technique involves initially valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate fair value, Cash Reserves Fund may value its investment securities in the same manner as debt obligations described above.
B Investment Transactions — Investment transactions for financial statement purposes are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.

C Income — Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date for dividends received in cash and/or securities. However, if the ex-dividend date has passed, certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as the Portfolio is informed of the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the Portfolio’s understanding of the applicable countries’ tax rules and rates. Interest income is recorded on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount.
D Federal Taxes — The Portfolio has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes on its share of taxable income. Since at least one of the Portfolio’s investors is a regulated investment company that invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate, at least annually among its investors, each investor’s distributive share of the Portfolio’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and any other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
In addition to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, the Portfolio may also be subject to local taxes on the recognition of capital gains in certain countries. In determining the daily net asset value, the Portfolio estimates the accrual for such taxes, if any, based on the unrealized appreciation on certain portfolio securities and the related tax rates. Taxes attributable to unrealized appreciation are included in the change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments. Capital gains taxes on securities sold are included in net realized gain (loss) on investments.
Prior to December 1, 2011, the Portfolio was subject to a two percent transaction tax on foreign currency inflows for new investments in Brazil. For the year ended October 31, 2012, such tax amounted to $6,556 and is included in net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contract transactions.
The Subsidiary is treated as a controlled foreign corporation under the Internal Revenue Code and is not expected to be subject to U.S. federal income tax. The Portfolio is treated as a U.S. shareholder of the Subsidiary. As a result, the Portfolio is required to include in gross income for U.S. federal tax purposes all of the Subsidiary’s income, whether or not such income is distributed by the Subsidiary. If a net loss is realized by the Subsidiary, such loss is not generally available to offset the income earned by the Portfolio.
As of October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had no uncertain tax positions that would require financial statement recognition, de-recognition, or disclosure. The Portfolio files a U.S. federal income tax return annually after its fiscal year-end, which is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years from the date of filing.
E Expense Reduction — State Street Bank and Trust Company (SSBT) serves as custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, SSBT receives a fee reduced by credits, which are determined based on the average daily cash balance the Portfolio maintains with SSBT. All credit balances, if any, used to reduce the Portfolio’s custodian fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
F Foreign Currency Translation — Investment valuations, other assets, and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of foreign investment securities and income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. Recognized gains or losses on investment transactions attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are recorded for financial statement purposes as net realized gains and losses on investments. That portion of unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed.
G Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
H Indemnifications — Under the Portfolio’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Portfolio. Under Massachusetts law, if certain conditions prevail, interestholders in the Portfolio could be deemed to have personal liability for the obligations of the Portfolio. However, the Portfolio’s Declaration of Trust contains an express disclaimer of liability on the part of Portfolio interestholders and the By-laws provide that the Portfolio shall assume the defense on behalf of any Portfolio interestholder. Moreover, the By-laws also provide for indemnification out of Portfolio property of any interestholder held personally liable solely by reason of being or having been an interestholder for all loss or expense arising from such liability. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Portfolio enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
I Financial Futures Contracts — Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an amount equal to a certain percentage of the purchase price (initial margin). Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Portfolio each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security or index, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. Gains (losses) are realized upon the expiration or closing of the financial futures contracts. Should market conditions change unexpectedly, the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss. Futures

contracts have minimal counterparty risk as they are exchange traded and the clearinghouse for the exchange is substituted as the counterparty, guaranteeing counterparty performance.
J Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts — The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. The forward foreign currency exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded as unrealized until such time as the contracts have been closed or offset by another contract with the same broker for the same settlement date and currency. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
K Total Return Swaps — In a total return swap, the buyer receives a periodic return equal to the total return of a specified security, securities or index for a specified period of time. In return, the buyer pays the counterparty a fixed or variable stream of payments, typically based upon short-term interest rates, possibly plus or minus an agreed upon spread. During the term of the outstanding swap agreement, changes in the underlying value of the swap are recorded as unrealized gains and losses. Periodic payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. The Portfolio is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the swap counterparty. Risk may also arise from the unanticipated movements in value of interest rates, securities, or the index.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
The investment adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio and the Subsidiary. Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement between the Portfolio and BMR and the investment advisory agreement between the Subsidiary and BMR, the Portfolio and Subsidiary each pay BMR a fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of its respective average daily net assets up to $500 million and is payable monthly. On net assets of $500 million and over, the annual fee is reduced. In determining the investment adviser fee for the Portfolio and Subsidiary, the applicable advisory fee rate is based on the average daily net assets of the Portfolio (inclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary). Such fee rate is then assessed separately on the Portfolio’s average daily net assets (exclusive of its interest in the Subsidiary) and the Subsidiary’s average daily net assets to determine the amount of the investment adviser fee. Pursuant to sub-advisory agreements, BMR pays Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC (Parametric), a majority-owned subsidiary of Eaton Vance Corp., a portion of its adviser fee for sub-advisory services provided to the Portfolio and the Subsidiary. The Portfolio invests its cash in Cash Reserves Fund. EVM does not currently receive a fee for advisory services provided to Cash Reserves Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2012, the Portfolio’s investment adviser fee amounted to $1,409,961 or 1.00% of the Portfolio’s consolidated average daily net assets. Pursuant to a voluntary expense reimbursement, BMR and Parametric were allocated $65,577 in total of the Portfolio’s operating expenses for the year ended October 31, 2012.
Trustees and officers of the Portfolio who are members of EVM’s or BMR’s organizations receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of the investment adviser fee. Trustees of the Portfolio who are not affiliated with the investment adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan. For the year ended October 31, 2012, no significant amounts have been deferred. Certain officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers of the above organizations.
3 Purchases and Sales of Investments
Purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $166,599,214 and $18,313,591, respectively, for the year ended October 31, 2012.
4 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investments
The cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments of the Portfolio at October 31, 2012, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:
| | | | |
| |
Aggregate cost | | $ | 273,649,186 | |
| |
Gross unrealized appreciation | | $ | 10,357,775 | |
Gross unrealized depreciation | | | (4,315,753 | ) |
| |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 6,042,022 | |
The net unrealized depreciation on swap contracts, foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contracts at October 31, 2012 on a federal income tax basis was $222,279.

5 Financial Instruments
The Portfolio may trade in financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its investing activities. These financial instruments may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts, financial futures contracts and swap contracts and may involve, to a varying degree, elements of risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investment the Portfolio has in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.
A summary of obligations under these financial instruments at October 31, 2012 is as follows:

At October 31, 2012, the Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or securities to cover commitments under these contracts.
In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective, the Portfolio is subject to the following risks:
Commodity Risk: Commodity risk is the risk that the value of a commodity or commodity index will fluctuate based on increases or decreases in the commodities market and factors specific to a particular industry or commodity. The Portfolio invests in commodities-linked derivative investments, including total return swaps based on a commodity index that provide exposure to the investment returns of the commodities market, without investing directly in physical commodities.
Equity Price Risk: The Portfolio enters into total return swap agreements on equity indices to enhance return, to hedge against fluctuations in securities prices or as substitution for the purchase or sale of securities. The Portfolio also enters into equity index futures contracts to enhance return or hedge volatility as an overall asset/risk instrument.
Foreign Exchange Risk: The Portfolio enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts and currency futures contracts to enhance return, to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currencies.
The Portfolio enters into swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts that may contain provisions whereby the counterparty may terminate the contract under certain conditions, including but not limited to a decline in the Portfolio’s net assets below a certain level over a certain period of time, which would trigger a payment by the Portfolio for those derivatives in a liability position. At October 31, 2012, the fair value of derivatives with credit-related contingent features in a net liability position was $2,012,217. The aggregate fair value of assets pledged as collateral by the Portfolio for such liability was $4,318,708 at October 31, 2012.
The non-exchange traded derivatives in which the Portfolio invests, including swap contracts and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the contract fails to perform its obligations under the contract. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk was $1,670,298, with the highest amount from any one counterparty being $1,522,921. To mitigate this risk, the Portfolio (and Subsidiary) has entered into master netting agreements with substantially all of its derivative counterparties, which allows it and a counterparty to aggregate amounts owed by each of them for derivative transactions under the agreement into a single net amount payable by either the Portfolio (and Subsidiary) or the counterparty. At October 31, 2012, the maximum amount of loss the Portfolio would incur due to counterparty risk would be reduced by approximately $1,670,000, due to master netting agreements. Counterparties may be required to pledge collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities or highly-rated bonds for the benefit of the Portfolio if the net amount due from the counterparty with respect to a derivative contract exceeds a certain threshold. The amount of collateral posted by the counterparties with respect to such contracts would also reduce the amount of any loss incurred. Because the Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act, it may not be able to negotiate terms with its counterparties that are equivalent to those a registered portfolio may negotiate. As a result, the Subsidiary may have greater exposure to those counterparties than a registered portfolio.

The average notional amounts of futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts outstanding during the year ended October 31, 2012, which are indicative of the volume of these derivative types, were approximately $67,591,000, $27,713,000 and $88,306,000, respectively.
6 Line of Credit
The Portfolio participates with other portfolios and funds managed by EVM and its affiliates in a $600 million unsecured line of credit agreement with a group of banks. Borrowings are made by the Portfolio solely to facilitate the handling of unusual and/or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Interest is charged to the Portfolio based on its borrowings at an amount above either the Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.08% on the daily unused portion of the line of credit is allocated among the participating portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. Because the line of credit is not available exclusively to the Portfolio, it may be unable to borrow some or all of its requested amounts at any particular time. The Portfolio did not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the year ended October 31, 2012.

7 Risks Associated with Foreign Investments
Investing in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are outside the United States may involve significant risks not present in domestic investments. For example, there is generally less publicly available information about foreign companies, particularly those not subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws. Certain foreign issuers are generally not bound by uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting requirements and standards of practice comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. Investments in foreign securities also involve the risk of possible adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, limitation on the removal of funds or other assets of the Portfolio, political or financial instability or diplomatic and other developments which could affect such investments. Foreign securities markets, while growing in volume and sophistication, are generally not as developed as those in the United States, and securities of some foreign issuers (particularly those located in developing countries) may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. companies. In general, there is less overall governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets, broker/dealers and issuers than in the United States.
8 Fair Value Measurements
Under generally accepted accounting principles for fair value measurements, a three-tier hierarchy to prioritize the assumptions, referred to as inputs, is used in valuation techniques to measure fair value. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
Ÿ | | Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
Ÿ | | Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
Ÿ | | Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
In cases where the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
At October 31, 2012, the hierarchy of inputs used in valuing the Portfolio’s investments and open derivative instruments, which are carried at value, were as follows:

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Investors of Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities of Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio and subsidiary (the “Portfolio”), including the consolidated portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statement of operations, the consolidated statement of changes in net assets, and the consolidated supplementary data for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are the responsibility of the Portfolio’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data are free of material misstatement. The Portfolio is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2012, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements and consolidated supplementary data referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Parametric Structured Absolute Return Portfolio and subsidiary as of October 31, 2012, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the supplementary data for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

IMPORTANT NOTICES
Privacy. The Eaton Vance organization is committed to ensuring your financial privacy. Each of the financial institutions identified below has in effect the following policy (“Privacy Policy”) with respect to nonpublic personal information about its customers:
Ÿ | | Only such information received from you, through application forms or otherwise, and information about your Eaton Vance fund transactions will be collected. This may include information such as name, address, social security number, tax status, account balances and transactions. |
Ÿ | | None of such information about you (or former customers) will be disclosed to anyone, except as permitted by law (which includes disclosure to employees necessary to service your account). In the normal course of servicing a customer’s account, Eaton Vance may share information with unaffiliated third parties that perform various required services such as transfer agents, custodians and broker-dealers. |
Ÿ | | Policies and procedures (including physical, electronic and procedural safeguards) are in place that are designed to protect the confidentiality of such information. |
Ÿ | | We reserve the right to change our Privacy Policy at any time upon proper notification to you. Customers may want to review our Privacy Policy periodically for changes by accessing the link on our homepage: www.eatonvance.com. |
Our pledge of privacy applies to the following entities within the Eaton Vance organization: the Eaton Vance Family of Funds, Eaton Vance Management, Eaton Vance Investment Counsel, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc., Eaton Vance Trust Company, Eaton Vance Management’s Real Estate Investment Group and Boston Management and Research. In addition, our Privacy Policy applies only to those Eaton Vance customers who are individuals and who have a direct relationship with us. If a customer’s account (i.e., fund shares) is held in the name of a third-party financial advisor/broker-dealer, it is likely that only such advisor’s privacy policies apply to the customer. This notice supersedes all previously issued privacy disclosures. For more information about Eaton Vance’s Privacy Policy, please call 1-800-262-1122.
Delivery of Shareholder Documents. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) permits funds to deliver only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, proxy statements and shareholder reports, to fund investors with multiple accounts at the same residential or post office box address. This practice is often called “householding” and it helps eliminate duplicate mailings to shareholders. Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, may household the mailing of your documents indefinitely unless you instruct Eaton Vance, or your financial advisor, otherwise. If you would prefer that your Eaton Vance documents not be householded, please contact Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122, or contact your financial advisor. Your instructions that householding not apply to delivery of your Eaton Vance documents will be effective within 30 days of receipt by Eaton Vance or your financial advisor.
Portfolio Holdings. Each Eaton Vance Fund and its underlying Portfolio(s) (if applicable) will file a schedule of portfolio holdings on Form N-Q with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year. The Form N-Q will be available on the Eaton Vance website at www.eatonvance.com, by calling Eaton Vance at 1-800-262-1122 or in the EDGAR database on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Form N-Q may also be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s public reference room in Washington, D.C. (call 1-800-732-0330 for information on the operation of the public reference room).
Proxy Voting. From time to time, funds are required to vote proxies related to the securities held by the funds. The Eaton Vance Funds or their underlying Portfolios (if applicable) vote proxies according to a set of policies and procedures approved by the Funds’ and Portfolios’ Boards. You may obtain a description of these policies and procedures and information on how the Funds or Portfolios voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-800-262-1122 and by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

(e)(1) The registrant’s audit committee has adopted policies and procedures relating to the pre-approval of services provided by the registrant’s principal accountant (the “Pre-Approval Policies”). The Pre-Approval Policies establish a framework intended to assist the audit committee in the proper discharge of its pre-approval responsibilities. As a general matter, the Pre-Approval Policies (i) specify certain types of audit, audit-related, tax, and other services determined to be pre-approved by the audit committee; and (ii) delineate specific procedures governing the mechanics of the pre-approval process, including the approval and monitoring of audit and non-audit service fees. Unless a service is specifically pre-approved under the Pre-Approval Policies, it must be separately pre-approved by the audit committee.
The Pre-Approval Policies and the types of audit and non-audit services pre-approved therein must be reviewed and ratified by the registrant’s audit committee at least annually. The registrant’s audit committee maintains full responsibility for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the work of the registrant’s principal accountant.
(e)(2) No services described in paragraphs (b)-(d) above were approved by the registrant’s audit committee pursuant to the “de minimis exception” set forth in Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.
