GROWTH FUND INVESTMENT REVIEW

Performance

The stock markets were kind to investors over the last half of the fiscal year ended November 30, 2003, which was the significant factor behind the 10.17% gain in the value of the Growth Fund shares. The market as measured by the S&P 500 Index was up 10.80% in the identical period. For the entire fiscal year, the Growth Fund gained 13.28% while the S&P 500 Index grew by 15.09%. The markets rose as signs of economic improvement became more widespread and corporate earnings boomed. Productivity, which is the long-term driver of our standard of living, has risen dramatically in the past few years, further adding to the market’s optimism.

Factors Affecting Performance

The gain of the Fund was primarily concentrated in two areas: smaller companies and lesser quality companies. For example, CIT Group, Tyco, Time Warner, Circuit City, Henry Schein, Sybron Dental and Wendy’s rose significantly faster than the market. Offsetting these were somewhat stagnant share prices of some of our larger holdings, including Fannie Mae, Pfizer, Microsoft, Cincinnati Financial, and Freddie Mac. In general, the higher the quality of the company, the worse it performed in 2003.

Current Strategy and Outlook

Our strategy over the last few months has been to sell many of our strong performers, which were the companies that we purchased in anticipation of an improving economy, and invest in the high-quality companies that did not appreciate significantly this year. For example, we purchased shares in AIG, Johnson & Johnson, Fannie Mae, Microsoft, Colgate Palmolive, Berkshire Hathaway, Freddie Mac, and Viacom. Many of the smaller companies and technology related companies have risen substantially over the last few years, and this has reduced their appeal to us. In general, by moving into high-quality companies at reasonable multiples of their earnings, we believe that we will accomplish the dual goals of providing attractive investment returns while preserving your principal.

SELECT FUND INVESTMENT REVIEW

November 30, 2003


		-s- Clint A. Oppermann Clint A. Oppermann, CFA Portfolio Manager

Performance

The Select Fund returned 20.69% for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2003. In comparison, the S&P 500 Index returned 15.09% for the same time period. Since inception (December 3, 2001), the Select Fund and S&P 500 have cumulative returns of 6.81% and -3.92%, respectively.

The Fund has now existed for two tumultuous years and we have good and bad news to report. We’ll start with the bad – our annualized return since inception is up only 3.36% per year. This is well short of any reasonable absolute return objective. The only good news is that the S&P 500 Index’s annualized return is actually down 1.99% over the same period. Obviously, we’re not too happy with our absolute performance but our relative performance is pretty much in line with our expectations.

Our goal is to outperform the S&P 500 Index by 4% or 5% per year. This, of course, is no lay up since all funds have 2 drags that the Index does not – an expense ratio and transaction costs. These twin drags are the main reasons that about 70% of actively-managed funds lag the Index over long periods of time (and why those that do outperform do so by seemingly modest amounts). We hope to continue to overcome these drags and add significant value above the Index through thorough research and unparalleled investment discipline.

Fund Inception: December 3, 2001

Factors Affecting Performance

You’ll notice a couple of big changes in today’s portfolio when compared to the end of last year. First, we have a large cash balance. Currently it stands at 21.16% of assets. The stock market has appreciated quite a lot over the last 8 to 12 months and we’re currently not able to find many truly compelling investment opportunities. Until we’re able to do so, we’ll contently wait in cash.

Obviously we’re not too happy with the 1% return we’re currently getting on a sizable part of the portfolio that is in cash. However, we’d rather suffer with a lower return today than what could potentially happen if we relaxed our investment discipline – a repeat of 2002. If you’ll recall, after a horrible first three quarters of 2002 we took the level of discipline we use in managing this portfolio up a notch. We started demanding higher quality businesses and bigger discounts to value before investing. In our opinion a fair amount of the pain that we felt in 2002 could have been avoided had we imposed the added discipline at the Fund’s inception rather than after 3 quarters of history. We’re not about to re-learn this lesson even though it’s costing us relative performance at this moment in time.

Second, the Select Fund is less focused today than it was last year at this time as a result of a conscious decision to trim some of our largest positions.Some of our most under priced stocks have rapidly appreciated this year. As they appreciated we sold down some of those holdings and added to other preexisting holdings with the proceeds. The stocks bought and sold have similar discounts to value and should theoretically have similar returns over time. Our objective with these transactions was not to enhance return but rather to reduce volatility by reducing the sizes of our larger positions.

This is not a permanent shift in philosophy. When we see businesses that are obviously much more compellingly priced than the others in the portfolio you can expect much bigger position sizes in the cheaper stocks. We will gladly take increased volatility when we think returns will be materially higher. However, today we’re faced with very similar discounts to value throughout much of the portfolio and don’t think there is much to gain from an extremely concentrated approach.

Current Strategy and Outlook

Our strategy remains unchanged from the last time we wrote. We will continue to invest the Select Fund in a limited number of average or higher quality understandable businesses when their stock prices are at substantial discounts to our estimates of intrinsic value. The discounts we typically demand are 40% for what we deem are superior businesses and 50% for what we deem are more average businesses.

Our investment discipline is strict and very few businesses currently have the combination of sufficiently high quality and cheapness relative to value to make it into the Select Fund. When we can’t find businesses to invest in our default is cash. We remain confident that the stock market will eventually give us attractive reinvestment opportunities but realize that we might lag our competitors until this happens.

We estimate that the businesses in your portfolio are currently trading at about 70% to 75% of intrinsic value (on a position-size weighted basis) whereas the S&P 500 Index is trading at about 110% to 115% of intrinsic value. Because of the absolute discount to value of the Select Fund and the stark relative valuation between the Fund and the Index, we continue to be excited about return prospects.

Please refer to the schedule of investments on page 16 of this report for holdings information. Fund holdings are subject to change and are not recommendations to buy or sell any securities.

The Thompson Plumb Select Fund is a non-diversified Fund. As a result, the value of the Fund’s shares may fluctuate more widely and may be subject to greater market risk than a Fund that invests more broadly.

Performance

The Blue Chip Fund produced a return of 13.74% for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2003 compared to the 15.09% return for the S&P 500 Index.

Since the Fund’s inception on August 1, 2002 through November 30, 2003, the Blue Chip Fund returned 13.45% compared to the S&P 500 Index return of 13.93% annually. The Lipper Large Cap Core average return was 10.38% for the same period.

Factors Affecting Performance

The performance of the Blue Chip Fund over the past year has been a tale of two markets. The first four months of the year were a tale of a declining stock market with the Blue Chip Fund underperforming in this stormy environment. However, the rest of the year was a different tale with the Blue Chip Fund outperforming in a strong up stock market.

Early in the year, investors struggled with uncertainties including the war in Iraq, weak domestic employment growth and international terrorism issues. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index closed below 800 in the middle of March of 2003. Record amounts of stimulus in the form of federal budget deficits and record low interest rates propelled the economy during the third and fourth quarters of 2003. Investors gained confidence in the economic recovery and improving corporate profitability. They pushed the stock market to rally over the remainder of the year.

Current Strategy and Outlook

With the stock market trading at near 20 times 2003 earnings, a good question is: where are we finding businesses priced significantly below their intrinsic value, or more simply put, where are we finding value in today’s stock market? Currently, we feel the major drug companies offer an attractive risk/reward scenario.

Major pharmaceuticals such as Abbott Labs, Merck and Pfizer have many strengths including robust internal R&D, high return on equity, strong balance sheets with growing new product lines, as well as proven management teams. In addition, our country’s demographics of an aging population give these companies solid end markets.

These stocks are not without their risks. Several multi-billion dollar drugs such as Merck’s Zocor for high cholesterol and Pfizer’s Zoloft for depression come off patent over the next several years. Also, the political environment remains unsettled. Drugs like Pfizer’s Lipitor and Viagra face new competition. While at the same time, every company is working hard to keep their costs in-line.

We feel these risks are reflected in the drug companies’ stock price. Over the last ten years, major pharmaceutical companies have traded on average at a 30% premium to the S&P 500 Index. Today, these companies are below a market multiple with Pfizer, Merck, Wyeth and Bristol-Myers Squibb all trading between 15 and 18 times 2003 earnings and 14 to 16 times projected 2004 earnings. In addition, these companies have an attractive dividend yield of between 2.0 and 4.3%.

Over the last 9 months, major pharmaceutical stocks have fallen out of favor, especially when compared to technology stocks. In this time period, the top 20 technology companies have climbed to an average P/E of 40 times 2003 earnings while the major pharmaceutical index has fallen to a P/E of 18 times 2003 earnings. In this environment, expectations for some technology stocks have become too high, while at the same time we believe projections for major drug stocks are too low.

So, how are we positioning the Blue Chip Fund? We have bought a basket of drug stocks including Abbott Labs, Pfizer, Merck, Bristol-Myers Squibb and, lately, Schering-Plough. These stocks help make healthcare our largest sector allocation. We believe a portfolio of these drug stocks will outperform a basket of tech stocks and the market over the next several years.

The stock market has rallied strongly from the lows in March of this year. The valuation of the broad stock market has moved from undervalued to slightly overvalued, in our opinion. That said, we are still finding high-quality companies such as the large pharmaceutical companies trading at discounts to our estimate of intrinsic value. We think our approach of buying high-quality companies at 30-50% discounts to our estimate of intrinsic value has the opportunity to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns over the long term. In addition, we have over 10% of the Blue Chip Fund in cash. We are not excited making 1% return on our cash, but we are excited about having some cash available for more compelling investment opportunities.

Performance

The Balanced Fund produced a 12.05% return for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2003 which exceeded the Lipper Balanced Fund average return of 10.87%. During the same period the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index returned 15.09% and the Lehman Intermediate Government/Credit Index returned 5.66%.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Results include the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions. Investment performance reflects voluntary fee waivers in effect. In the absence of such waivers, total return would be reduced. The performance information reflected in the graph and the Average Annual Total Returns table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index is an unmanaged index commonly used to measure the performance of U.S. stocks. You cannot directly invest in an index. Lipper Balanced Fund Average is the load-adjusted, equal weighted average performance of all balanced funds measured by Lipper, Inc. For purposes of the line graph above, the year-by-year change in the value of the Lipper Balanced Fund Average is based on the total return of the balanced funds that were included in the Lipper Balanced Fund Average for that year; however, for purposes of calculating the average annual total returns for the Lipper Balanced Fund Average during the periods presented in the table above, Lipper only considers the performance of the balanced funds that were in existence during all such periods. The Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Credit Index is a market value weighted performance benchmark which includes virtually every major U.S. Government and investment-grade rated corporate bond with 1-10 years remaining until maturity.

Factors Affecting Performance

The performance of the Balanced Fund over the past year has been a tale of two markets. The first four months of the year were a tale of a declining stock market with the Balanced Fund underperforming in this stormy environment. However, the rest of the year was a different tale with the Balanced Fund outperforming in a strong up stock market.

Current Strategy and Outlook

The economy is responding to massive amounts of stimulus provided by both monetary and fiscal policy. The Federal Reserve has lowered short-term interest rates to the lowest levels in over 40 years and has signaled an intention to leave them there until an economic recovery is well under way. The Federal government has slashed tax rates and is spending at a rapid pace which is creating a $500-billion-a-year budget deficit. It appears that a sustained economic recovery is taking hold, but we believe the recovery will moderate to a 3-4% growth rate in 2004.

The stock market advanced sharply in 2003 in anticipation of improving corporate earnings next year. We believe that the stock market has reached a level where it is more fairly valued and some selected technology companies may be somewhat over-valued. We are still finding selected high-quality companies trading at discounts to our estimates of their value. The major pharmaceutical companies represent good value and should come back into vogue in 2004 as investors rotate from expensive technology and industrial companies back into higher-quality companies with reasonable valuations.

The tax cuts implemented in 2003 have made dividend-paying companies especially attractive to taxable investors. Our emphasis on high-quality companies with solid balance sheets and free cash flow are the most likely companies, in our opinion, to be in a position to raise their dividends.

Overall level of consumer, corporate and government debt outstanding concerns us. We believe this will act as a drag to future economic growth. Previous economic recessions were generally a time for businesses and consumers to cut back on capital investment and consumption in order to pay down debt accumulated during expansions. We feel this would create pent-up demand and buying power to fuel the next recovery. Consumers, in general, have used the record low interest rates to continue buying cars and homes rather than pay down debt during the last recession. Debt levels, when compared to income, are much closer to their historical highs than end-of-recession lows. We believe this will impede the consumer from leading a recovery.

Interest rates reached 40 year record lows this last summer. We believe that the 20-year bull market in bonds ended then and we expect interest rates to rise gradually with moderate economic growth. We have kept the bond maturities in the Fund’s portfolio relatively short to preserve principal in a rising rate environment and in anticipation of being able to take advantage of higher interest rates in 2004. We have emphasized corporate debt and preferred stocks to generate income.

We generally invest in high-quality companies that are industry leaders with high returns on invested capital, solid balance sheets and strong management when they trade at 30-50% discounts to our estimate of their intrinsic value. We utilize the same discount-to-value approach in fixed-income investments where we strive to generate total return, while preserving principal and generating current income. We believe that our investment approach of combining common stocks and bonds will continue to serve investors well.

BOND FUND INVESTMENT REVIEW

Performance

The Thompson Plumb Bond Fund produced a total return of 13.75% for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2003. In comparison, the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Credit Index (LGCI) returned 5.66% over the same period.

Factors Affecting Performance

The Bond Fund performed very well over the past six months despite an increase in interest rates and a surge in the amount of government and corporate debt issued during the period. This performance was the result of a continuing and significant recovery in the market value of a few of the below investment grade cable television corporate bond holdings which had been depressed last year. Also, timely sales of a preferred stock and several corporate bonds helped preserve gains in the portfolio. Bonds purchased during the period have also added to total return through capital appreciation, including GTE Southwest Inc., Textron Financial Corp., Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae and a United States Treasury Bond. As a result of our deliberate focus on shorter term quality bonds, it is unlikely that total return will approach that of 2003.

Current Strategy & Outlook

We believe the U.S. economic recovery, which has slowly gained momentum during the last two quarters, will continue to strengthen in 2004. Also, we expect the global economic picture to steadily improve as well. This economic growth should translate into higher interest rates at some point in the future, causing long-term bonds to potentially experience significant capital depreciation. For this reason we continue to keep the duration of the portfolio at approximately three to four years to avoid large declines in the value of long-term bonds, yet produce considerably more income than money market instruments. Corporate and consumer debt outstanding are both near record levels and remain a major concern as we select new securities for the portfolio with a higher quality focus. Recent purchases have been in U.S. Government and Federal Agency sectors.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2003

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

Thompson Plumb Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Wisconsin corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end, diversified management investment company.

The Company consists of separate mutual funds series (the “Funds”): Thompson Plumb Growth Fund (the “Growth Fund”), Thompson Plumb Select Fund (the “Select Fund”), Thompson Plumb Blue Chip Fund (the “Blue Chip Fund”), Thompson Plumb Balanced Fund (the “Balanced Fund”), and Thompson Plumb Bond Fund (the “Bond Fund”). The assets and liabilities of each Fund are segregated and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which the shareholder owns shares. Thompson, Plumb & Associates, Inc. (“TPA”) serves as investment adviser to the Funds. See Note 8.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.

SECURITY VALUATION - Each Fund’s investments are valued at their market prices (generally the last reported sales price on the exchange where the securities are primarily traded) or, where market quotations are not readily available, at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to procedures established by the Funds’ Board of Directors. Debt securities for which market quotations are not readily available may be valued based on information supplied by independent pricing services, including services using matrix pricing formulas and/or independent broker bid quotations. Debt securities held by a Fund with remaining maturities of 60 days or less may be valued on an amortized cost basis.

SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME - Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Discounts and premiums on debt securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective securities on the same basis for book and tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded as earned.

VARIABLE-RATE DEMAND NOTES - The Funds invest in short-term, variable-rate demand notes, which are unsecured instruments. The Funds may be susceptible to credit risk with respect to these instruments to the extent the issuer defaults on its payment obligation. Each Fund’s policy is not to purchase variable-rate demand notes unless at the time of purchase the issuer has unsecured debt securities outstanding that have received a rating within the two highest categories from either Standard & Poor’s (that is, A-1, A-2 or AAA, AA) or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (that is, Prime-1, Prime-2 or Aaa, Aa). Accordingly, the Funds do not anticipate nonperformance of these obligations by the issuers.

PERMANENT BOOK AND TAX DIFFERENCES - Generally accepted accounting principles require that permanent financial reporting and tax differences relating to shareholder distributions be reclassified in the capital accounts.

EXPENSES - Each Fund is charged for those expenses that are directly attributed to it. Expenses that are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund will generally be allocated among the Funds in proportion to the relative sizes of the Funds.

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and realized gains on securities for the Growth Fund, Select Fund, Blue Chip Fund and the Balanced Fund normally will be declared on an annual basis within 30 days and paid within 60 days following the Funds’ fiscal year-end. Bond Fund distributions to shareholders from net investment income normally will be declared on a quarterly basis within 30 days and paid within 60 days following the Fund’s fiscal quarter, and distributions to shareholders from realized gains on securities normally will be declared on an annual basis within 30 days and paid within 60 days following the Fund’s fiscal year-end. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

November 30, 2003

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES - No provision has been made for federal income taxes since the Funds have elected to be taxed as regulated investment companies and intend to distribute substantially all income to shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies.

DIRECTED BROKERAGE ARRANGEMENTS - The Funds have directed brokerage arrangements with Fidelity Capital Markets and BNY Brokerage. Upon purchase and/or sale of the investment securities at best execution, the Funds pay brokerage commissions to Fidelity Capital Markets and BNY Brokerage. These commission payments generate non-refundable cumulative credits, which are available to pay certain expenses of the Funds. For the year ended November 30, 2003, the Growth Fund and the Balanced Fund expenses were reduced by $259,162 and $6,225, respectively, by utilizing these direct brokerage credits. This resulted in the decrease in the expense ratio being charged to shareholders for the Growth Fund and Balanced Fund for the year ended November 30, 2003 of 0.04% and 0.01%, respectively. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission requirements, such amounts are required to be shown as expenses and have been included in each of the Statements of Operations.

LINE OF CREDIT - The Funds have established a line of credit (“LOC”) with U.S. Bank N.A.which expires November 15, 2004, to be used for temporary liquidity needs, primarily for financing redemption payments. Each of the individual Funds borrowing under the LOC are limited to either 5% of the market value of the Fund’s total assets or any explicit borrowing limits imposed by the Board, whatever is less. At November 30, 2003, limits established by the Board are: Growth Fund - $20,000,000, Select Fund - $500,000, Blue Chip Fund - $500,000, Balanced Fund - $5,000,000 and Bond Fund - $1,000,000. The LOC was drawn upon during the year; however, as of November 30, 2003, there were no borrowings by the Funds outstanding under the LOC.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND ACCOUNTING SERVICES AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Company has entered into an Advisory Agreement with TPA for management of each Fund’s portfolio and for the administration of other Fund affairs. As compensation for its services, TPA receives a fee computed daily and payable monthly as follows: (i) for the Growth Fund, 1.00% of average daily net assets up to $50 million and 0.90% of average daily net assets in excess of $50 million; (ii) for the Select Fund, 1.00% of average daily net assets up to $50 million and 0.90% of average daily net assets in excess of $50 million; (iii) for the Blue Chip Fund, 1.00% of average daily net assets up to $50 million and 0.90% of average daily net assets in excess of $50 million; (iv) for the Balanced Fund, 0.85% of average daily net assets up to $50 million and 0.80% of average daily net assets in excess of $50 million; (v) for the Bond Fund, 0.65% of average daily net assets up to $50 million and 0.60% of average daily net assets in excess of $50 million.

Pursuant to an Accounting Services Agreement, TPA maintains the Funds’ financial records in accordance with the 1940 Act, prepares all necessary financial statements of the Funds, and calculates the net asset value per share of the Funds on a daily basis. As compensation for its services, each Fund pays the Advisor a fee computed daily and payable monthly at the annual rate of 0.15% of net assets up to $30 million, 0.10% of net assets in excess of $30 million, and 0.025% of net assets in excess of $100 million, with a minimum fee of $30,000 per year. The calculations of daily net asset value are subcontracted to U.S. Bancorp Fund Services; resulting in fees paid by the Advisor in the amounts of $79,044, $30,000, $30,000, $42,159 and $30,000, for the Growth Fund, Select Fund, Blue Chip Fund, Balanced Fund and Bond Fund, respectively for the year ended November 30, 2003.

The Advisors are contractually bound to waive management fees and/or reimburse expenses incurred by the Funds from April 1, 2003 through March 31, 2004 so that the annual operating expenses of the Funds do not exceed the following percentages of their respective average daily net assets: Select Fund-1.30%, Blue Chip Fund-1.20% and Bond Fund-0.80%.

As a result of the separation of TPA on December 31, 2003, the Advisory Agreement and Accounting Services Agreement terminated and have been replaced by new Investment Advisory Agreements and a new Administrative and Accounting Services Agreement. See Note 8.

NOTE 7 - REORGANIZATION OF BALANCED FUND

On October 14, 2003, following approval by its Board of Directors, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) for the Balanced Fund. The Agreement was subsequently approved by the Balanced Fund shareholders at a special meeting held on January 16, 2004. Under the Agreement, all of the assets, subject to liabilities, of the Balanced Fund will be transferred to Dreyfus Premier Balanced Opportunity Fund (the “Balanced Opportunity Fund”), a newly created mutual fund to be managed by The Dreyfus Corporation. The Balanced Opportunity Fund has the same investment objective and substantially similar investment strategies as the Balanced Fund. TPA will serve as sub-adviser to the Balanced Opportunity Fund and in such capacity be responsible for the day-to-day management of its investments. Immediately following the transfer of its assets, the Balanced Fund will liquidate and its shareholders will become shareholders of the Balanced Opportunity Fund, receiving Class J shares of the Balanced Opportunity Fund having an aggregate net asset value equal to the Balanced Fund assets so transferred. The value of each Balanced Fund shareholder’s account in the Balanced Opportunity Fund immediately after the transaction would be the same as the value of that shareholder’s account in the Balanced Fund immediately before the transaction. The transaction has been structured to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes so that Balanced Fund shareholders would not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the exchange of their shares of the Balanced Fund for shares of the Balanced Opportunity Fund in the transaction. The transaction is expected to be completed on January 30, 2004.

NOTE 8 - SEPARATION OF THOMPSON, PLUMB & ASSOCIATES, INC.

In October 2003, John W. Thompson and Thomas G. Plumb, each of whom founded and then owned 50% of the outstanding stock of TPA informed the Board of Directors of the Company that they had reached a mutual agreement on the establishment of separate advisory firms. This separation subsequently occurred on December 31, 2003, and the shareholders of the Funds approved new Investment Advisory Agreements at a special meeting held on January 16, 2004. Shareholder approval of new advisory contracts was necessary because the separation, amounting to a change in control, triggered an automatic termination of the previous Advisory Agreement with TPA that had been in effect with respect to all of the Funds. As a result of the separation, Mr. Plumb controls TPA by virtue of his ownership of a majority of its outstanding voting securities and serving as its President. TPA continues to serve as the investment adviser for the Select, Blue Chip and Balanced Funds (and will serve as sub-adviser to the Balanced Opportunity Fund upon completion of the reorganization of the Balanced Fund). Mr. Thompson now controls a recently formed investment advisory firm, Thompson Investment Management, LLC (“TIM”), by virtue of his indirect ownership of a majority of its outstanding voting interests and serving as manager of the firm. TIM serves as the investment adviser for the Thompson Plumb Growth and Bond Funds. The fee rates payable by the Funds under the new Investment Advisory Agreements with TPA and TIM, as the case may be, are the same as the rates paid by the Funds under the previous Advisory Agreement. See Note 3.

TIM Holdings, Inc., an entity controlled by Mr. Thompson and that owns all of TIM, provides administrative and accounting services to all of the Funds under an Administrative and Accounting Services Agreement. The Administrative and Accounting Services Agreement went into effect as of December 31, 2003 and replaced the previous Accounting Services Agreement. The fee rates payable by the Funds under the Administrative and Accounting Services Agreement are the same as those paid by the Funds under the previous Accounting Services Agreement. See Note 3.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Thompson Plumb Funds, Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Thompson Plumb Growth Fund, Thompson Plumb Select Fund, Thompson Plumb Blue Chip Fund, Thompson Plumb Balanced Fund and Thompson Plumb Bond Fund (constituting the Thompson Plumb Funds, Inc., hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at November 30, 2003, and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets and their financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit 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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at November 30, 2003 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

MATTERS SUBMITTED TO A VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS

Meeting of Balanced Fund Shareholders. On January 16, 2004, a special meeting of shareholders of the Balanced Fund was held upon the presence of a quorum. The purpose of the meeting was to consider an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) providing for the transfer of all of the assets of the Balanced Fund to the Dreyfus Premier Balanced Opportunity Fund (the “Balanced Opportunity Fund”) in exchange for Class J shares of the Balanced Opportunity Fund having an aggregate net asset value equal to the Balanced Fund’s net assets so transferred and the assumption by the Balanced Opportunity Fund of the Balanced Fund’s stated liabilities, followed by the liquidating distribution by the Balanced Fund to its shareholders of the Class J shares of the Balanced Opportunity Fund received in the reorganization. The Agreement was duly approved by the Balanced Fund shareholders, the proposal having received an affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Balanced Fund as of the November 14, 2003 record date. The specific voting results were as follows:


Total Outstanding
Shares on Record Date	For		Against		Abstain

11,961,367.141		6,180,141.342		226,032.916		101,006.384

Meeting of All Fund Shareholders. On January 16, 2004, a special meeting of shareholders of all of the Funds was held upon the presence of a quorum. The purpose of the meeting was for shareholders of each Fund to consider a new Investment Advisory Agreement for such Fund. The meeting was necessitated as a result of the reorganization of Thompson Plumb & Associates, Inc. (“TPA”) which involved the creation of, and transfer of some assets of TPA to, a separate firm, Thompson Investment Management, LLC (“TIM”) under the control of John W. Thompson, and the surrender by Mr. Thompson of his 50% ownership interest in TPA thereby giving control to Thomas G. Plumb (the other 50% owner). Such reorganization triggered an automatic termination of the investment advisory agreement with TPA that had been in effect for all of the Funds.

At the meeting, shareholders of the Select, Blue Chip and Balanced Funds were asked to approve a new advisory contract with TPA, and shareholders of the Growth and Bond Funds were asked to approve a new advisory contract with TIM. The Board of Directors of the Company approved the new advisory contracts at a meeting held on October 24, 2003. Approval of a new advisory contract for a Fund required the affirmative “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities” of such Fund, within the meaning of Section 2(a)(42) of the Investment Company Act. That means the vote of either (i) 67% or more of the voting securities present at the meeting if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy, or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities, whichever is less. Only shareholders of record as of November 14, 2003 were entitled to vote. The shareholders or each Fund duly approved the new investment advisory agreement for their Fund. The specific voting results were as follows:


	Total Outstanding
Fund	Shares on Record Date		For		Against		Abstain

Growth Fund		20,318,215.193		15,912,822.447		106,641.646		161,506.536
