Item 1 - Reports to Stockholders
The following is a copy of the report to shareholders pursuant to Rule 30e-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (17 CFR 270.30e-1).
Annual Report • June 30, 2005
Letter from the Chairman
Dear Shareholders:
During the previous 12 months, escalating oil prices and rising interest rates kept the stock and bond markets fluctuating between periods of positive and negative performance.
Crude oil prices surged throughout the period and eventually broke the $60 per barrel all-time high. Record oil prices caused inflationary concerns and fears of restricted economic growth among investors, as rising fuel costs can have a downward influence on most companies’ profits and on consumer spending. Throughout the period, however, corporate profits and consumer spending generally remained robust.
Likewise, the economy has maintained strong growth with gross domestic product increasing 4.4% for calendar 2004. In the first quarter of 2005, GDP slowed slightly but still gained at a 3.8% annual rate. Even in the midst of this growth, inflation was well contained, as the Consumer Price Index only increased by 3.3% for 2004, and 3.1% for the first six months of 2005.
In the 12-month period, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) continued its tightening cycle and raised the federal funds rate from 1.25% to 3.25%. The Fed has indicated that further rate increases are likely. Despite the interest rate environment, bond funds delivered positive returns across the board for the first six months of the period. According to investment research firm Morningstar, Inc., the long-term bond category was up 6%, and the intermediate-term group gained nearly 4% for the year through December 30, 2004.
Although most bond funds suffered declines during the first quarter of 2005, many returned to positive territory by the end of June 2005. Morningstar reported that long-term U.S. government bond funds added 5.2% on average, while their intermediate-term peers gained 2.7% for the second calendar quarter of 2005.
Meanwhile, the stock market posted strong gains at the end of 2004 but slowed in 2005. By year-end 2004, Morningstar’s U.S. Market Index, which tracks the performance of the broad U.S. equity market, gained 12.35%. However, for the first six months of 2005, the index only posted a 0.15% increase.
Comparatively, Morningstar’s U.S. Core Index, which tracks the performance of stocks where neither growth nor value characteristics predominate, posted a 15.62% return for year-end 2004, but posted a 1.21% loss for the first six months of 2005.
Results of the past year demonstrate how difficult it is to predict market movements or the popularity of fund styles. Because no one knows where the fixed-income or equity markets are headed over the short-term, attempting to time the market can be hazardous to an investor’s longer-term financial goals.
i
This is why at First Funds we continue to believe in the three tenets of sound investing: consistency to maintain a repeatable investment strategy, discipline to respect the markets and the inherent risks of investing, and patience to take a long-term view of the markets. To help investors achieve their goals through consistency, discipline and patience, First Funds offers an array of investments, including equity, fixed-income and money market portfolios. Additionally, we provide tax-advantaged accounts such as Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and individual retirement accounts.
The following report includes commentary from our portfolio management teams as well as full financial information on the funds. To answer your questions or for access to your account, feel free to contact First Funds at 800.442.1941. You may also access up-to-date Portfolio information at www.firstfunds.com.

Fiscal Year Review
Market Review and Portfolio Update
The stock market produced a positive rate of return during the past 12 months. Most of the gain was recorded in the October-December 2004 quarter when the election uncertainty was erased and concerns relative to the Iraq war dissipated. The economy continued to strengthen with a gross domestic product (GDP) annual growth rate of 4.4% for calendar 2004 compared to 3.0% for calendar 2003. In the first quarter of 2005 GDP slowed slightly to 3.8%. In the midst of this growth, inflation remained well contained.
During the period, the Portfolio was overweighted in the financials, consumer discretionary and information technology sectors. The Portfolio’s financial holdings fared well despite higher interest rates from the Federal Reserve. The information technology sector outperformed the S&P 500 Index in the last quarter and we believe this group may continue to perform well in 2005. We also anticipate that the consumer discretionary sector may benefit from the strong economy and from the potential of falling crude oil prices. Lower energy prices could provide additional discretionary income for consumers.
Although the Federal Reserve has indicated that it is not finished raising interest rates, we feel the end of this series of rate hikes may be near. If true, this could be a positive for the overweighting that the Portfolio has in financial stocks, as this sector historically performs well at the end of a cycle of rate increases.
Our overall outlook for the market is predicated on crude oil prices. A continued upward movement of crude prices or a sustained high price level could have detrimental impacts on the economy and corporate earnings. However, a sustained drop in crude prices could offer a positive boost to the economy, consumer confidence and earnings.

Fiscal Year Review
Market Review and Portfolio Update
The last 12 months saw the equity market move in fits and starts. The market was down in July 2004 brought on by concerns about the economy and rising fuel costs. But soon after that, stocks rallied. The strength of the October-December quarter pulled most stock indices into double-digit territory for the 2004 calendar year, even though many entered the quarter flat or negative. This optimism was dashed in the following quarter as rising energy prices spread fear of a decelerating economy. By June 2005, however, the market rallied again, as energy prices and inflation fears eased. This rally lifted many stock indices into positive territory for the previous 12 months.
Stock selection in the consumer non-durable sector, particularly retailers, produced the most significant positive impact on the Portfolio. Urban Outfitters, Inc. was a top contributor to performance, as it posted strong sales and earnings growth. Carter’s, Inc. also performed well based in part on improved growth prospects with its acquisition of OshKosh B’Gosh Co., which helped send the stock up 46% in the last quarter and 114% for the previous 12 months.
Hindering performance was healthcare in aggregate, due to the severe battering that biotech stocks took, particularly in the January-March quarter. Individually, Inspire Pharmaceuticals, Inc. was one detractor from performance, falling by half upon announcing disappointing results regarding its experimental drug for chronic dry-eye syndrome. We exited from the stock as a result of this news.
Entering the next period, we continue to maintain an overweighted position in the biotech sector (a sub-sector within healthcare), as we believe the negative sentiment toward this sector has been overly severe. We have also reduced our underweighted position in technology to the smallest margin since 2001 because we feel the negative sentiment regarding many companies’ future growth prospects has become too pessimistic.

Fiscal Year Review
Market Review and Portfolio Update
During the 12-month period, the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) raised the federal funds rate from 1.25% to 3.25%. During the July-September 2004 quarter, investors who assumed more interest rate and credit quality risks were rewarded as long-term securities gained more in value than short-term securities, and lower quality bonds outperformed higher quality bonds of similar maturity. In the following quarter, BBB-rated bonds again outpaced their higher quality counterparts.
From January through March 2005, the yield curve flattened. Long-term Treasury rates declined and BBB-rated bonds became the worst performers in the investment-grade sector. During the April-June quarter, bond prices generally rose, the interest rate curve flattened and high credit quality bonds continued to outshine lower quality bonds.
During the previous 12 months, we reduced the Portfolio’s allocation to the corporate market by cutting back exposure to the auto sector and selling GMAC and Daimler Chrysler Corp. bonds. For the period, we maintained a shorter duration with Portfolio than the benchmark Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Credit Index. The Portfolio began 2005 with a targeted duration of 81% of the benchmark. In June 2005, the duration target was cut to 76% of the benchmark, which equates to a 2.8-year duration. The benchmark duration is 3.7 years.
Going forward, we remain cautious about inflation and its resulting negative impact on bond values.
Given our sense of the elevated risk of rising inflation rates and the historically low level of real rates, we believe it remains prudent for the Portfolio to keep a lower duration than the benchmark. The Portfolio also continues to hold a greater allocation of agency securities and high quality corporate bonds than the benchmark.

Fiscal Year Review
Market Review and Portfolio Update
During the July-September 2004 quarter, municipal bond yields dropped and the yield curve flattened as the result of Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) tightening. As rates dropped, we shortened the Portfolio’s duration to 4.9 years from 5 years because we felt there was not enough yield to warrant a longer duration and the implied risk. In the following quarter, municipal bonds finished with positive returns and we extended the Portfolio’s duration back to 5 years as rates began to rise. Ten-year municipal yields ended 2004 at 3.64%, up from 3.60% at year-end 2003.
In the January-March quarter, the Fed pushed the federal funds rate to 2.75%, causing the yield curve to continue to flatten. We extended the Portfolio’s duration to 5.1 years. During the next quarter, the Fed raised the federal funds rate to 3.25%. We then extended the Portfolio’s duration to 5.2 years to capture higher yields.
For the first six months of 2005, nationwide new municipal bond issuance reached $205 billion, marking an increase of almost 9% over the same period in 2004. In Tennessee, new issue volume for the six-month period totaled more than $2.2 billion, a 57% increase from last year for the same period.
During the past 12 months, municipal yields in the Portfolio’s area of interest – 10 to 15 years – have dropped nearly 0.50% and are close to their three-year lows. Because we think real rates are too low, our goal is to limit interest rate risk in the Portfolio going forward. We also remain cautious about inflation and its resulting negative impact on bond values.

Quotation of Class C performance reflects a 1% Deferred Sales Load applied to redemptions made during the first two years after purchase. Without this load, the figures quoted would have been 4.52% for 1 Year. The Portfolio commenced sales of Class B shares on 8/3/1999. These shares include a 0.70% distribution fee. Class B shares prior to their inception reflect applicable Class C performance data. Class B performance shown is net of CDSC. Class B shares of the Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio are subject to a 4.00% CDSC which declines to 0.00% for shares held up to six years.

Common Terms
Basis Point
Smallest measure of quoting yields on bonds and notes. One basis point is 0.01% of yield.
Bond Ratings
The quality of bonds can, to some degree, be determined from the ratings of the two most prominent rating services: Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s. The ratings are used by the government and industry regulatory agencies, the investing public, and portfolio managers as a guide to the relative security and value of each bond. The ratings are not used as an absolute factor in determining the strength of the pledge securing a particular issue. However, since Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rate bonds on a fee basis, some issuers choose not to be rated. Many non-rated (NR) issues are sound investments. The rating symbols of the two services are shown in the accompanying table. Moody’s ratings may be modified by the addition of 1, 2 and 3 to show relative standing within the major rating categories in which 1 indicates a ranking in the higher end of the category, 2 in a mid-range and 3 in the lower end of the category. Standard & Poor’s ratings may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus to show relative standing within the major rating categories.

Dividend
Net income distributed to shareholders generated by securities in a portfolio. The Intermediate Bond, Tennessee Tax-Free, and all the Money Market Portfolios pay dividends monthly. The Core Equity Portfolio and the Capital Appreciation Portfolios pay dividends annually.
Gain (or Loss)
If a stock or bond appreciates in price, there is an unrealized gain; if it depreciates there is an unrealized loss. A gain or loss is “realized” upon the sale of a security; if a Portfolio’s net gains exceed net losses, there may be a capital gain distribution to shareholders. There could also be an ordinary income distribution if the net gain is short term or no distribution if there is a capital loss carryover.
General Obligation Bonds
General Obligation Bonds (GOs) are debt-backed by the general taxing power of the issuer. Payment of the obligation may be backed by a specific tax or the issuer’s general tax fund. Examples of GOs include sidewalk bonds, sewer bonds and street bonds. These bonds are also known as full faith and credit bonds because the debt is a general obligation of the issuer.
Insured Bonds
Insured Bonds refer to municipal obligations which are covered by an insurance policy issued by independent insurance companies. The policies insure the payment of principal and/or interest of the issuer. Examples of such companies are MBIA (Municipal Bond Investors Assurance Corporation), and AMBAC (American Municipal Bond Assurance Corporation).
Net Asset Value (NAV)
NAV is the total value of all securities and other assets held by a portfolio, minus liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding. It is the value of a single share of a mutual fund on a given day. The total value of your investment would be the NAV multiplied by the number of shares you own.
Revenue Bonds
Revenue Bonds are issued to provide capital for the construction of a revenue-producing facility. The interest and principal payments are backed to the extent that the facility produces revenue to pay. Examples of revenue bonds include toll bridges, roads, parking lots and ports. The municipality is not obligated to cover debt payments on revenue bonds in default.
xi
SEC Yield
The SEC Yield was mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission in 1988 as a standardized yield calculation intended to put performance presentations for all bond and money market funds on a level playing field. The SEC Yield does not take into account income derived from capital gains, option writing, futures, or return of capital. The formula also adjusts the income from premium or discounted bonds to reflect the amortization of that bond.
Total Return
Total return measures a portfolio’s performance over a stated period of time, taking into account the combination of dividends paid and the gain or loss in the value of the securities held in the Portfolio. It may be expressed on an average annual basis or a cumulative basis (total change over a given period).
Indices
Standard & Poor’s 500 Index is a broad-based measurement of changes in stock market conditions based on the average performance of 500 widely-held common stocks.
Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Credit Index, an unmanaged index, is a broad measure of bond performance, and includes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. This index includes only investment-grade bonds with maturities of up to 10 years.
Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Index is composed of all bonds that are of investment grade with at least one year until maturity.
Lehman Brothers 10-Year Municipal Bond Index, an unmanaged index, is a broad measure of shorter-term municipal bond performance and includes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.
The Russell 2000® Growth Index, measures the performance of those Russell 2000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.

Fund Expenses
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two potential types of costs. You incur transaction costs including sales charges, you also incur ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 fees and other Fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested on January 3, 2005 and held until June 30, 2005.
Actual Return. The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 line under the heading “Expense Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical 5% Return. The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual returns. 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 a Fund and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
The expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight ongoing Fund costs only and do not reflect transaction fees, such as redemption fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and may not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction fees were included, your costs would have been higher.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of First Funds
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of First Funds (the “Trust”) comprising the Core Equity, Capital Appreciation, Intermediate Bond, Tennessee Tax-Free, U.S. Government Money Market, Municipal Money Market and Cash Reserve Portfolios as of June 30, 2005, and the related statements 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 the periods presented. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Trust 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 Trust’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 June 30, 2005, 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, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the portfolios constituting First Funds as of June 30, 2005, the results of their operations and for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2005
1. Significant Accounting and Operating Policies
First Funds (the Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-ended management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust by a Declaration of Trust dated March 6, 1992, as amended and restated on September 4, 1992, as amended and restated on June 26, 2003.
The Trust currently has seven active investment portfolios (each referred to as a “Portfolio”). The Trust’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. This 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.
The U.S. Government Money Market and Municipal Money Market Portfolios may offer three classes of shares (Classes I, A and C) and the Core Equity, Capital Appreciation, Intermediate Bond, Tennessee Tax-Free and Cash Reserve Portfolios may offer four classes of shares (Classes I, A, B and C). As of June 30, 2005, Class A shares have not been issued for the U.S. Government Money Market, Municipal Money Market and Cash Reserve Portfolios Money Market Portfolios. Each class of shares has equal rights as to earnings, assets and voting privileges except that each class bears different distribution and shareholder service expenses. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its Distribution Plans and Shareholder Servicing Plans. Income, expenses (other than expenses incurred under each Class Distribution and Service Plan and other class specific expenses) and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based upon their relative net assets.
The following summarizes the significant accounting policies for the Trust.
Security Valuation:
Core Equity, Capital Appreciation, Intermediate Bond and Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolios: Securities held in the Core Equity and Capital Appreciation Portfolios for which exchange quotations are readily available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price or if traded on the over-the-counter market, at the closing bid price. Over-the-counter securities traded on NASDAQ are valued based upon the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Securities held in the Intermediate Bond and Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolios are valued based upon a computerized matrix system and/or appraisals by a pricing service, both of which consider market transactions and dealer-supplied valuations. Securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued using dealer-supplied valuations or at the fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term fixed-income securities maturing within 60 days are valued at amortized cost which approximates current value.
Money Market Portfolios: Each of the Money Market Portfolios values securities utilizing the amortized cost method of valuation under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, pursuant to which each Money Market Portfolio must adhere to certain conditions. Under this method, investments are valued initially at cost and thereafter assume a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.
Repurchase Agreements: Each Portfolio, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities, whose market value, including interest, is required to be at least equal to 102% of the resale price. The Trust’s advisers are responsible for determining that the value of these underlying securities remains at least equal to 102% of the resale price. If the seller defaults, each Portfolio would suffer a loss to the extent that the proceeds from the sale of the underlying securities were less than the repurchase price.
Securities Purchased on a When-Issued or Forward Commitment Basis: Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by the portfolios on a when-issued basis can take place a month or more after the trade date. Normally, the settlement date occurs within six months after the trade date; however, the portfolios may, from time to time, purchase securities whose settlement date extends beyond six months or more beyond trade date. During this period, such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The portfolios maintain segregated assets with a market value equal to or greater than the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis may increase the volatility of the portfolio’s net asset value to the extent the portfolio makes such purchases while remaining substantially fully invested.
Income Taxes: As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each Portfolio is not subject to income taxes to the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for its fiscal year. The Portfolios intend to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
Interest Income: Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is accrued as earned. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Expenses: Most expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a Portfolio. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the Portfolios based on average net assets or by number of accounts.
Distributions to Shareholders: For the Money Market Portfolios, Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio, distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions, if any, for the Core Equity and Capital Appreciation Portfolios are declared and paid annually. Any net capital gains earned by each Portfolio are distributed at least annually to the extent necessary to avoid federal income and excise taxes.
Income and capital gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from income and gains reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, the effects of certain differences were reclassified. The Capital Appreciation Portfolio decreased paid in capital by $1,050,284 and increased accumulated net investment loss by $1,050,284. The Intermediate Bond Portfolio decreased paid in capital by $50,229, increased undistributed net investment income by $104,078 and decreased accumulated net realized gain on investments by $53,849. The Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio decreased paid in capital by $23,370 and increased undistributed net investment income by $23,370. The U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio increased paid in capital by $14,000 and decreased undistributed net investment income by $14,000. Net assets of the portfolios were unaffected by the reclassifications and the calculation of net investment income per share in the Financial Highlights excludes these adjustments.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements
June 30, 2005 (Unaudited)
On May 2, 2005, the Board of Trustees met in person to discuss, among other things, the renewal and approval of the Investment Advisory, Sub-Advisory and Co-Advisory Agreements (“Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust and First Tennessee, DMC, BIMC, Highland and Martin (the “Co-Advisers and Sub-advisors”). The Independent Trustees met with Fund Counsel, Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, and Counsel to the Independent Trustees, Bingham McCutchen LLP, and discussed the Advisory Agreement and other related materials.
In approving the Advisory Agreements the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, considered the following factors with respect to the Portfolios:
(i) a report comparing each Portfolio’s fees, expenses, performance and certain other characteristics to those of a peer group for each fund selected by Lipper, Inc., (“Lipper”) an independent reporting agency;
(ii) reports and presentations by First Tennessee and each Sub-adviser or Co-adviser that described (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by that entity to the applicable portfolios, (b) the fees and other amounts paid under the advisory agreement, including information as to the fees charged and services provided to the other clients, (c) certain information about the entity’s compliance program and procedures and any regulatory issues, (d) brokerage practices, including soft dollar practices, (e) proxy voting policies and procedures, (f) the entity’s code of ethics and (g) certain financial information, including a profitability analysis concerning the relationship with the portfolios; and
(iii) reports and information from First Tennessee and ADI concerning the Portfolios’ distribution arrangements and sales and redemption information.
Advisory Fees Paid
The Trustees also considered the advisory fees to be paid by each Portfolio and the comparative cost of similar services being paid by other similar funds. The Trustees reviewed and discussed the comparative information prepared by Lipper in this regard. It was noted that:
(i) after giving effect to First Tennessee’s waiver of a portion of its advisory and administrative fees, the advisory fee for Core Equity Portfolio approximated the median for the peer group for all share classes;
(ii) after giving effect to First Tennessee’s waiver of a portion of its advisory fees, the advisory fee for Capital Appreciation Portfolio either approximated or was lower then median for the peer group, depending on the shares class;
(iii) the advisory fees for Intermediate Bond and Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolios approximated or were lower than median for the peer group for all shares classes; and
(iv) the advisory fees for the Money Market Portfolios were well below median for all shares classes.
The Trustees received and considered information showing what each Sub-adviser or Co-adviser charged its other managed mutual fund clients and other non-mutual fund clients, and had determined that the Portfolios’ fees were lower than the fees charged to the comparable clients and appeared reasonable in relation to those fees, and that the services equaled or exceeded those provided to non-mutual fund clients.
The Trustees took note of the fact that there were few breakpoints in the Portfolios’ fee schedules, but noted that the Portfolios had suffered net redemptions during the year and that if that situation should change they could re-evaluate the fee schedules. The Trustees noted that they had received profitability information for First Tennessee and each Sub-adviser or Co-adviser, and the information (which for First Tennessee, Highland and Martin was prepared in a variety of ways at the Trustees’ request) showed that each adviser’s profitability was consistent with profitability from prior years and appeared reasonable under the circumstances.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements.
43
The Trustees also considered the total annual operating expenses paid by each Portfolio and the total annual operating expenses being paid by other similar portfolios, as reflected in the Lipper materials. It was noted that: (i) after giving effect to First Tennessee’s waiver of advisory and administrative fees, total expenses were below median for all classes of Core Equity Portfolio other than Class I; (ii) total expenses were below median for all classes of Capital Appreciation Portfolio, Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio (except that Class I shares of each Portfolio and Class A shares of the Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio were approximately equal to the median); and (iii) total expenses for all classes of the Money Market Portfolios were well below the median except for Class B shares of the Cash Reserve Portfolio.
Performance
The Trustees also considered the investment performance of each Portfolio. In this regard the Trustees discussed:
(i) the performance information obtained from Lipper which compared each Portfolio’s performance against a benchmark index and ranked each Portfolio’s performance against that of other mutual funds in its peer group;
(ii) information obtained from each Sub-adviser or Co-adviser that showed the applicable Portfolio’s performance as compared to comparable funds and accounts managed by the Sub-adviser or Co-adviser; and
(iii) the performance information provided on a quarterly basis by First Tennessee. The Trustees noted that the U.S. Government and Municipal Money Market Portfolios had strong performance for the past five years and that the Cash Reserve Portfolio had good performance except for the new Class B shares (where the 12b-1 fee had affected performance).
The Trustees noted that while the one and three year performance of the Core Equity Portfolio was below the median, the five and ten year performance was good, quite good in the case of the ten year performance. The Trustees noted that in recognition of the Trustees’ concerns about performance, First Tennessee had agreed to waive a portion of its advisory and administrative fees for this Portfolio. The Trustees noted that while the three and five year performance of the Capital Appreciation Portfolio was above the median, the one year performance was below the median. The Trustees noted that here again, in recognition of the performance issues, First Tennessee had agreed to waive a portion of its advisory and administrative fees for this Portfolio. For the Intermediate Bond Portfolio, the Trustees noted that the three and five year performance was approximately the median and the one year performance was below the median, and that Martin, the Sub-adviser, attributed this underperformance to the Portfolio’s quality bias. The Trustees noted that total expenses were well below median for this Portfolio. For the Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio, the Trustees noted that performance had consistently lagged for all measurement periods, which Martin, the Sub-adviser again attributed to the Portfolio’s quality bias. Again the Trustees noted that total expenses were generally at or below the median for all share classes.
Conclusion
After discussions, the Board concluded that First Tennessee and each Sub-adviser or Co-adviser had the capabilities, resources and personnel necessary to manage the applicable Portfolios. The Board further concluded that based on the services provided by First Tennessee and each Sub-adviser or Co-adviser to the Portfolios pursuant to the advisory agreements, and the expenses incurred by them in the performance of such services, and taking into account the agreed-upon fee waivers, the compensation payable to them is fair and reasonable.
Therefore, based on the Trustees’ deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, concluded that in the best interest of the Portfolios and their shareholders, the Investment Advisory Agreements were re-approved.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements.
