COMMITTED TO INVESTOR SUCCESS(SM) MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN DEAR SHAREHOLDER: When we think about 2003, we'll remember a year in which financial services underwent significant change. National news reflected regulatory attention to the business conduct of a few mutual fund companies. As a result, certain industry-wide practices came under increased scrutiny. Your Fund's Board of Trustees recognizes the seriousness of these issues. As a result, it has expanded its review of policies and procedures to insure compliance with applicable rules and regulations. Additionally, the Board had taken a review of its own structure and governance protocols to insure that our practices are not only compliant with regulatory standards, but, whenever practical, also conform to best practices that value your interests and help you invest wisely. I hope that you'll take time to review the activities and performance information included in this semiannual report. We've witnessed new life in the equity markets, and I am encouraged that our overall economy has begun a more rewarding period. Now is an opportune time for you to review your investments with your financial advisor to be sure your portfolio is best positioned to achieve long-term success. Keep in mind that finding the best balance of performance and protection requires discipline and diversification 1.

See Notes to Financial Statements 10 PHOENIX PARTNER SELECT FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JANUARY 31, 2004 (UNAUDITED) 1. ORGANIZATION Phoenix Partner Select Funds (the "Trust") is organized as a Delaware business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company. Currently two Funds are offered for sale (each a "Fund"). The Partner Select Wealth Builder Fund is diversified and is a fund of funds that has an investment objective of seeking capital appreciation. The Partner Select Wealth Guardian Fund is diversified and is a fund of funds that has an investment objective of long-term capital appreciation and current income. Each Fund offers Class A and Class C shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.75%. Class C shares are sold with a 1% contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed within one year of purchase. Each class of shares has identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except that each class bears different distribution and/or service expenses and has exclusive voting rights with respect to its distribution plan. Income and expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of each Fund are borne pro rata by the holders of each class of shares. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of 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, liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A. SECURITY VALUATION: Investments in the underlying funds are valued at each Fund's net asset value determined as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 pm eastern time). Short-term investments having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost which approximates market. As required, some investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Trustees. B. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Income and capital gain distributions from the underlying funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Each Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts using the effective interest method. C. INCOME TAXES: Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. It is the policy of each Fund to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. In addition, each Fund intends to distribute an amount sufficient to avoid imposition of any excise tax under Section 4982 of the Code. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has been made. D. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: Distributions are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences may include the treatment of non-taxable dividends, market premium and discount, non-deductible expenses, expiring capital loss carryovers, foreign currency gain or loss, gain or loss on futures contracts, partnerships, operating losses, losses deferred due to wash sales. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. E. EXPENSES: Expenses incurred by the Trust with respect to the Funds are allocated in proportion to the net assets of each Fund, except where allocation of direct expense to each Fund or an alternative allocation method can be more fairly made. 3. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS As compensation for its services to the Trust, the adviser, Phoenix Investment Counsel, Inc., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of The Phoenix Companies, Inc. ("PNX"), is entitled to a fee at an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reimburse through November 30, 2004, other operating expenses of each Fund (as compared to each underlying mutual fund) to the extent that such expenses (excluding management fees and 12b-1 distribution and service fees) exceed 0.30% of each class of shares of the Wealth Builder Fund and 0.42% for each class of shares of the Wealth Guardian Fund. As Distributor of the Fund's shares, Phoenix Equity Planning Corporation ("PEPCO"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of PNX, has advised the Fund that it retained net selling commissions and deferred sales charges for the period ended January 31, 2004, as follows: Class A Class C Net Selling Deferred Commissions Sales Charges ----------- ------------- Wealth Builder Fund ........................ $31,505 $1,551 Wealth Guardian Fund ....................... 13,845 2,214 11 PHOENIX PARTNER SELECT FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JANUARY 31, 2004 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) In addition to these amounts, the following was paid to W.S.
