N O T E S T O F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S
1. Significant Accounting Policies Citi Premium U.S. Treasury Reserves (the “Fund”) is a diversified separate series of CitiFunds Premium Trust (the “Trust”), a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Fund invests all of its investable assets in U.S. Treasury Reserves Portfolio (the “Portfolio”), an open-end, diversified management investment company for which Citi Fund Management Inc. (the “Manager”) serves as Investment Manager. The value of such investment reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest (25.6% at August 31, 2003) in the net assets of the Portfolio. Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is the Fund’s Distributor.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are contained elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are as follows:
A. Investment Income The Fund earns income, net of Portfolio expenses, daily on its investment in the Portfolio.
B. FederalTaxes The Fund’s policy is to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code available to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders all of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise tax is necessary.
C. Expenses The Fund bears all costs of its operations other than expenses specifically assumed by the Manager. Expenses incurred by the Trust with respect to any two or more funds in a series are allocated in proportion to the average net assets of each fund, except where allocations of direct expenses to each fund can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses directly attributable to a fund are charged to that fund.
D. Other All the net investment income of the Portfolio is allocated pro rata, based on respective ownership interests, among the Fund and other investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination.
2. Dividends The net income of the Fund is determined once daily, as of 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time, and all of the net income of the Fund so determined is declared as a dividend to shareholders of record at the time of such determination. Dividends are distributed in the form of additional shares of the Fund or, at the election of the shareholder, in cash (subject to the policies of the shareholder’s Shareholder Servicing Agent) on or prior to the last business day of the month.
3. Management Fees The management fees are computed at an annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. The management fees paid to the Manager amounted to $1,064,444 for the year ended August 31, 2003. The Trust pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any officer who is affiliated with the Manager, all of

whom receive remuneration for their services to the Fund from the Manager or its affiliates. Certain of the officers and a Trustee of the Trust are officers and a director of the Manager or its affiliates.
4. Distribution/Service Fees The Fund adopted a Service Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Service Plan allows the Fund to pay monthly fees at an annual rate not to exceed 0.10% of the average daily net assets. The Service fees paid amounted to $532,222 for the year ended August 31, 2003. These fees may be used to make payments to the Distributor and to Service Agents or others as compensation for the sale of Fund shares or for advertising, marketing or other promotional activity, and for preparation, printing and distribution of prospectuses, statements of additional information and reports for recipients other than regulators and existing shareholders. The Fund may also make payments to the Distributor and others for providing personal service or the maintenance of shareholder accounts.
5. Shares of Beneficial Interest The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (par value $0.00001 per share).
6. Investment Transactions Increases and decreases in the Fund’s investment in the Portfolio aggregated $2,106,287,853 and $2,464,732,537, respectively, for the year ended August 31, 2003.
7. Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders
At August 31, 2003 the tax basis components of distributable earnings were:
|
|
| |
Undistributed ordinary income | $ | 90,066 | |
|
| |
The tax character of distributions paid during the year was: | | | |
|
|
| |
Ordinary income | $ | 4,846,753 | |
|
|
| |
8.Trustee Retirement Plan The Trustees of the Fund have adopted a Retirement Plan for all Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Fund, within the meaning of the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, all Trustees are required to retire from the Board as of the last day of the calendar year in which the applicable Trustee attains age 75 (certain Trustees who had already attained age 75 when the Plan was adopted are required to retire effective December 31, 2003). Trustees may retire under the Plan before attaining the mandatory retirement age. Trustees who have served as Trustee of the Trust or any of the investment companies associated with Citigroup for at least ten years when they retire are eligible to receive the maximum retirement benefit under the Plan. The maximum retirement benefit is an amount equal to five times the amount of retainer and regular meeting fees payable to a Trustee during the calendar year ending on or immediately prior to the applicable Trustee’s retirement. Amounts under the Plan may be paid in installments or in a lump sum (discounted to present value). The Fund’s allocable share of the expenses of the Plan for the year ended August 31, 2003 and the related liability at August 31, 2003 was not material.

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.

U.S. Treasury Reserves Portfolio
N O T E S T O F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S
1. Significant Accounting Policies U.S. Treasury Reserves Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) as a no-load, diversified, open-end management investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue beneficial interests in the Portfolio. Citi Fund Management Inc. (the “Manager”) acts as the Investment Manager.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio are as follows:
A.Valuation of Investments Money market instruments are valued at amortized cost, which the Trustees have determined in good faith constitutes fair value. The Portfolio’s use of amortized cost is subject to the Portfolio’s compliance with certain conditions as specified under the 1940 Act.
B. Investment Income and Expenses Investment income consists of interest accrued and discount earned (including both original issue and market discount), adjusted for amortization of premium, on the investments of the Portfolio, accrued ratably to the date of maturity, plus or minus net realized gain or loss, if any, on investments. Expenses of the Portfolio are accrued daily.
C. Federal Income Taxes The Portfolio’s policy is to comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is necessary.
D. Fees Paid Indirectly The Portfolio’s custodian calculates its fees based on the Portfolio’s average daily net assets. The fee is reduced according to a fee arrangement, which provides for custody fees to be reduced based on a formula developed to measure the value of cash deposited with the custodian by the Portfolio. This amount is shown as a reduction of expenses on the Statement of Operations.
E. Other Purchases, maturities and sales of money market instruments are accounted for on the date of the transaction.
2. Management Fees The Manager is responsible for overall management of the Portfolio’s business affairs, and has a Management Agreement with the Portfolio. The Manager or an affiliate also provides certain administrative services to the Portfolio. These administrative services include providing general office facilities and supervising the overall administration of the Portfolio.
The management fees paid to the Manager are accrued daily and payable monthly. The management fee is computed at the annual rate of 0.15% of the Funds’ average daily net assets. The management fee amounted to $2,696,661 of which $1,464,732 was voluntarily waived for the year ended August 31, 2003. The Portfolio pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any officer who is affiliated with the Manager, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Fund from the Manager or its
23
U.S. Treasury Reserves Portfolio
N O T E S TO F I N A N C I A L S T A T E M E N T S (Continued)
affiliates. Certain of the officers and a Trustee of the Portfolio are officers and a director of the Manager or its affiliates.
3. Investment Transactions Purchases, maturities and sales of U.S. Treasury obligations, aggregated $17,986,161,304 and $18,502,718,161, respectively, for the year ended August 31, 2003.
4. Trustee Retirement Plan The Trustees of the Portfolio have adopted a Retirement Plan for all Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Portfolio, within the meaning of the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, all Trustees are required to retire from the Board as of the last day of the calendar year in which the applicable Trustee attains age 75 (certain Trustees who had already attained age 75 when the Plan was adopted are required to retire effective December 31, 2003). Trustees may retire under the Plan before attaining the mandatory retirement age. Trustees who have served as Trustee of the Trust or any of the investment companies associated with Citigroup for at least ten years when they retire are eligible to receive the maximum retirement benefit under the Plan. The maximum retirement benefit is an amount equal to five times the amount of retainer and regular meeting fees payable to a Trustee during the calendar year ending on or immediately prior to the applicable Trustee’s retirement. Amounts under the Plan may be paid in installments or in a lump sum (discounted to present value). The Portfolio’s allocable share of the expenses of the Plan for the year ended August 31, 2003 and the related liability at August 31, 2003 was not material.

To the Trustees and Investors of
U.S. Treasury Reserves Portfolio:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of U.S. Treasury Reserves Portfolio (a New York Trust) as of August 31, 2003, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the three year 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. The financial highlights for each of the years in the two year period ended August 31, 2000 were audited by other auditors whose report thereon, dated October 4, 2000, expressed an unqualified opinion on the financial highlights.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2003 by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes 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, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of U.S. Treasury Reserves Portfolio as of August 31, 2003 and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the three year period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
