The Trust's Forms N-Q are available on the Commission's web site at http://www.sec.gov, and may be reviewed and copied at the Commission's Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330. Since the Funds in SEI Daily Income Trust typically hold only fixed income securities, they generally are not expected to hold securities for which they may be required to vote proxies. Regardless, in light of the possibility that a Fund could hold a security for which a proxy is voted, the Trust has adopted proxy voting policies. A description of the policies and procedures that the Trust uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities, as well as information relating to how a Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, is available without charge (i) upon request, by calling 1-800-DIAL-SEI; and (ii) on the Commission's website at http://www.sec.gov. ================================================================================ STATEMENT OF NET ASSETS (Unaudited) Money Market Fund July 31, 2005 -

ORGANIZATION SEI Daily Income Trust (the "Trust") was organized as a Massachusetts business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated March 15, 1982. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end investment company with ten operational Funds: the Money Market, Government, Government II, Prime Obligation, Treasury, Treasury II (each a "Fund", collectively the "Money Market Funds"), the Short-Duration Government, Intermediate-Duration Government, GNMA, and Ultra Short Bond, previously known as Corporate Daily Income (each a "Fund", collectively the "Fixed Income Funds"). The Funds' prospectuses provide a description of each Fund's investment objectives, policies and strategies. The assets of each Fund are segregated, and a shareholder's interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds. USE OF ESTIMATES -- 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 amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets at the date of the financial statements, and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. SECURITY VALUATION -- Investment securities of the Money Market Funds are stated at amortized cost which approximates market value. Under this valuation method, purchase discounts and premiums are accreted and amortized ratably to maturity and are included in interest income. Investment securities of the Fixed Income Funds listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market on which they are traded, or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent quoted bid price. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. Prices for most securities held in the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker. Securities for which market prices are not "readily available" are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Funds' Board of Trustees. The Funds' Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the "Committee") designated by the Funds' Board of Trustees. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; or the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee. As of July 31, 2005, there were no fair valued securities in the Funds. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Costs used in determining net realized capital gains and losses on the sale of securities are those of the specific securities sold, adjusted for the accretion and amortization of purchase discounts and premiums during the respective holding period. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Purchase discounts and premiums on securities held in the Fixed Income Funds are accreted and amortized over the life of each security. Paydown gains and losses are classified as interest income. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by each Fund's custodian bank until maturity of the repurchase agreements. Provisions of the agreements and the Trust's policies ensure that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default by the counterparty. The Funds also invest in tri-party repurchase agreements. Securities held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained by the broker's custodian bank in a segregated account until maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the agreements ensure that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if the counterparty enters into an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by a Fund may be delayed or limited. FUTURES CONTRACTS -- The Intermediate-Duration Government Fund and the GNMA Fund utilized futures contracts during the six months - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 39 ================================================================================ NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) ended July 31, 2005. The Funds' investment in these futures contracts is designed to enable the Funds to more closely approximate the performance of their benchmark indices. Initial margin deposits of cash or securities are made upon entering into futures contracts. The contracts are "marked-to-market" daily and the resulting changes in value are accounted for as unrealized gains and losses. Variation margin payments are paid or received, depending upon whether unrealized losses or gains are incurred. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the amount invested in the contract. Risks related to futures contracts include the possibility that there may not be a liquid market for the contracts, that the changes in the value of the contract may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities, and that the counterparty to a contract may default on its obligation to perform. The notional amount presented in the Statement of Net Assets in the Intermediate-Duration Government Fund and the GNMA Fund represents the Fund's total exposure in such contracts, whereas only the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is reflected in the Fund's net assets. TBA AND OTHER PURCHASE COMMITMENTS -- The Funds may engage in "to be announced" ("TBA") security transactions. Such transactions involve commitments to purchase securities for a fixed price at a future date. Purchase commitments may be considered securities and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to settlement date, which risk is in addition to the risk of decline in the value of a Fund's other assets. Unsettled purchase commitments are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described under "Security Valuation" above. CLASSES -- Class-specific expenses are borne by that class of shares. Income, realized and unrealized gains/losses and non-class-specific expenses are allocated to the respective class on the basis of relative daily net assets. EXPENSES -- Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged directly to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust, which are not directly associated to a specific Fund, are prorated to the Funds on the basis of relative net assets. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with Federal tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income are declared on a daily basis and are payable on the first business day of the following month. Any net realized capital gains on sales of securities for a Fund are distributed to its shareholders at least annually. 3. AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT -- SEI Investments Fund Management (the "Administrator") provides administrative services to the Funds for annual fees, based on the average daily net assets of the respective funds, as presented below: Money Market Fund .33% Government Fund .24% Government II Fund .19% Prime Obligation Fund .19% Treasury Fund .24% Treasury II Fund .24% Short-Duration Government Fund .35% Intermediate-Duration Government Fund .35% GNMA Fund .32% Ultra Short Bond Fund .35% However, the Administrator has also voluntarily agreed to waive a portion or its entire fee, for various classes of shares in various funds, to limit total annual expenses to the following amounts (expressed as a percentage of the Funds' daily net assets). The Administrator has the right, at its sole discretion, to terminate these voluntary waivers at any time. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Money Prime Market Gov't Gov't II Obligation Treasury Treasury II Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund Fund - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class A .18% .20% .20% .20% .20% .25% Class B .48% .50% .50% .50% .50% .55% Class C .68% .70% .70% .70% .70% .75% Class H N/A N/A N/A .63% N/A N/A Sweep Class .93% .95% * .95% .95% * *Class not currently operational - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Short- Intermediate- Ultra Duration Duration Short Government Government GNMA Bond Fund Fund Fund Fund - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class A .45% .50% .60% .35% During the year expenses related to a proxy conducted by the Trust were charged to the Funds above the cap. During the six month period ended July 31, 2005, the Short-Duration Government Fund and the Intermediate-Duration Government Fund were reimbursed by the Administrator, deemed as a "Payment by Affiliate" on the Statements of Operations, for losses incurred of $7,422 and $3,906, respectively, due to the sale of shares in several option contracts that were inadvertently purchased. DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT -- SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI Investments Company ("SEI Investments"), and a registered broker-dealer, acts as the Distributor of the shares of the Trust under various Distribution - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 40 SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 ================================================================================ Agreements. The Trust has adopted plans under which firms, including the Distributor, that provide shareholder and administrative services may receive compensation thereof. Specific classes of certain funds have also adopted distribution plans, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Such plans provide fees payable to the Distributor equal to the following amounts, calculated as a percentage of the average daily net assets attributable to each particular class of each respective fund. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Adminis- Shareholder trative Servicing Service Distribution Fees Fees Fees* - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Money Market Fund Class A .25% -- -- Class B .25% .05% -- Class C .25% .25% -- Sweep Class .25% -- .50% Government Fund Class A .25% Class B .25% .05% -- Class C .25% .25% -- Sweep Class .25% -- .50% Government II Fund Class A .25% -- -- Class B .25% .05% -- Class C .25% .25% -- Prime Obligation Fund Class A .25% -- -- Class B .25% .05% -- Class C .25% .25% -- Class H .25% .18% -- Sweep Class .25% -- .50% Treasury Fund Class A .25% -- -- Class B .25% .05% -- Class C .25% .25% -- Sweep Class .25% -- .50% Treasury II Fund Class A .25% -- -- Class B .25% .05% -- Class C .25% .25% -- Short-Duration Government Fund -- Class A .25% -- -- Intermediate-Duration Government Fund -- Class A .25% -- -- GNMA Fund -- Class A .25% -- -- Ultra Short Bond Fund -- Class A .25% -- -- * These payments are characterized as "compensation" and are not directly tied to expenses incurred by the Distributor. The payments the Distributor receives during any year may therefore be higher or lower than its actual expenses. These payments may be used to compensate sweep class shareholders who provide distribution-related services to their customers. The Distributor has voluntarily waived all or a portion of the shareholder servicing fees for class A of each fund since inception of the plan. Such waivers are voluntary and may be discontinued at any time. Certain officers and Trustees of the Trust are also officers and/or Trustees of the Administrator or the adviser. The Trust pays each unaffiliated Trustee an annual fee for attendance at quarterly, interim, and committee meetings. The Administrator or the adviser pays compensation of officers and affiliated Trustees. 4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND CUSTODIAN AGREEMENTS SEI Investments Management Corporation ("SIMC") serves as each Fund's investment adviser and "manager of managers" under an investment advisory agreement approved by the shareholders of each Fund. For its services, SIMC receives an annual fee equal to .075% of the Trust's average daily net assets up to $500 million and .02% of such net assets in excess of $500 million. Pursuant to the "manager of managers" structure, the Board of Trustees approved Banc of America Capital Management, LLC ("BACAP") as each Money Market Fund's investment sub-adviser under an investment sub-advisory agreement approved by the shareholders of each Fund. Wellington Management Company LLP, ("Wellington LLP") serves as Sub-Adviser to the Short-Duration Government, Intermediate-Duration Government, GNMA and Ultra Short Bond Funds. Wachovia Bank, N.A. serves as the custodian of the Funds. The custodian plays no role in determining the investment policies of the Funds or which securities are to be purchased or sold in the Funds. 5. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The cost of security purchases and the proceeds from the sale of securities, other than temporary investments in short-term securities, for the six months ended July 31, 2005, were as follows for the Fixed Income Funds: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Short- Intermediate- Ultra Duration Duration Short Government Government GNMA Bond Fund Fund Fund Fund ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PURCHASES U.S. Government $72,138 $62,197 $55,179 $27,194 Other -- 1,059 3,341 36,091 SALES U.S. Government $54,887 $69,317 $49,181 $ 8,572 Other 5,798 2 547 59,254 6. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION It is each Fund's intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes and distribute all of its taxable income (including net capital gains). Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 41 ================================================================================ NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) Reclassification of components of net assets -- The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with Federal tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for the reporting period may differ from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income or accumulated net realized gain, as appropriate, in the periods that the differences arise. These reclassifications, which have no impact on net asset value of the Fund, are primarily attributable to distribution reclass, expiration of capital loss carryforwards, and tax treatment of paydown gain (loss) on mortgage and asset-backed securities. The tax character of dividends and distributions during the last two fiscal years were as follows: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ordinary Long-term Income Capital Gain Total ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Money Market Fund 2005 $10,070 $ -- $10,070 2004 8,403 -- 8,403 Government Fund 2005 7,837 -- 7,837 2004 6,104 -- 6,104 Government II Fund 2005 8,768 -- 8,768 2004 7,755 -- 7,755 Prime Obligation Fund 2005 53,751 -- 53,751 2004 43,002 -- 43,002 Treasury Fund 2005 6,195 -- 6,195 2004 4,981 -- 4,981 Treasury II Fund 2005 4,444 -- 4,444 2004 4,636 -- 4,636 Short-Duration Government Fund 2005 6,335 -- 6,335 2004 8,882 -- 8,882 Intermediate-Duration Government Fund 2005 3,597 80 3,677 2004 5,064 2,821 7,885 GNMA Fund 2005 9,524 -- 9,524 2004 15,863 -- 15,863 Ultra Short Bond Fund 2005 6,945 -- 6,945 2004 7,350 -- 7,350 As of January 31, 2005 the components of Distributable Earnings/(Accumulated Losses) on a tax basis were as follows: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Undistributed Undistributed Capital Post- Ordinary Long Term Loss October Income Capital Gain Carryforwards Losses ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Money Market Fund $1,505 $ 2 $ -- $ -- Government Fund 1,068 -- (69) (4) Government II Fund 1,184 -- (48) -- Prime Obligation Fund 7,398 -- (87) -- Treasury Fund 928 -- (88) (9) Treasury II Fund 508 -- (225) (37) Short-Duration Government Fund 547 -- (2,225) (556) Intermediate-Duration Government Fund 332 -- (301) (170) GNMA Fund 713 -- (10,256) (102) Ultra Short Bond Fund 664 -- (2,019) (467) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Other Unrealized Total Temporary Appreciation Distributable Earnings Differences (Depreciation) (Accumulated Losses) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Money Market Fund $(1,501) $ -- $ 6 Government Fund (1,068) -- (73) Government II Fund (1,185) -- (49) Prime Obligation Fund (7,396) -- (85) Treasury Fund (928) -- (97) Treasury II Fund (508) (3) (265) Short-Duration Government Fund (543) (1,048) (3,825) Intermediate-Duration Government Fund (321) (4) (464) GNMA Fund (719) 3,435 (6,929) Ultra Short Bond Fund (667) (1,127) (3,616) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 42 SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 ================================================================================ At January 31, 2005, the following funds had capital loss carryforwards to offset future realized capital gains: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Amount Expiration ($ Thousands) Date - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Government Fund $ 5 1/31/06 5 1/31/10 5 1/31/11 54 1/31/13 Government II Fund 38 1/31/06 3 1/31/12 7 1/31/13 Prime Obligation Fund 27 1/31/10 43 1/31/11 2 1/31/12 15 1/31/13 Treasury Fund 65 1/31/11 1 1/31/12 22 1/31/13 Treasury II Fund 148 1/31/06 40 1/31/10 20 1/31/11 17 1/31/13 Short-Duration Government Fund 899 1/31/12 1,326 1/31/13 Intermediate-Duration Government Fund 301 1/31/13 GNMA Fund 238 1/31/06 109 1/31/08 1,607 1/31/09 776 1/31/11 6,407 1/31/12 1,119 1/31/13 Ultra Short Bond Fund 557 1/31/11 442 1/31/12 1,020 1/31/13 During the year ended January 31, 2005, the following fund utilized capital loss carryforwards to offset realized capital gains. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Amount ($ Thousands) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Money Market Fund $4 The Government II Fund and GNMA Fund have permanent book/tax differences due to the expiration of capital loss carryforwards. The Government II Fund and GNMA Fund have $68,745 and $414,209 of capital losses, respectively, which have expired as of January 31, 2005. For Federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. Post-October losses represent losses realized on investment transactions from November 1, 2004 through January 31, 2005 that, in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, the Funds may elect to defer and treat as having arisen in the following fiscal year. At July 31, 2005 the Money Market Funds cost of securities for Federal income tax purposes approximates the cost located in the Statement of Net Assets. The Federal tax cost and aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments held by the Fixed Income Funds at July 31, 2005, were as follows: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Unrealized Federal Appreciated Depreciated Appreciation Tax Cost Securities Securities (Depreciation) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) ($ Thousands) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Short-Duration Government Fund $206,394 $ 30 $(2,572) $(2,542) Intermediate-Duration Government Fund 105,486 151 (1,495) (1,344) GNMA Fund 179,579 1,936 (800) 1,136 Ultra Short Bond Fund 347,449 137 (1,848) (1,711) 7. INVESTMENT RISKS In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications by the Fund to the counterparty to the contract. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claim is considered remote. 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT The Board of Trustees (the "Board") has selected KPMG LLP (KPMG) to serve as the Trust's independent registered public accounting firm for the Trust's fiscal year ending January 31, 2006. The decision to select KPMG was recommended by the Audit Committee and was approved by the Board on September 19, 2005. The selection of KPMG does not reflect any disagreements with or dissatisfaction by the Trust or the Board with the performance of the Trust's prior auditor. Rather, this change was approved by the Board upon the Audit Committee's recommendation of KPMG. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 43 ================================================================================ SEI DAILY INCOME TRUST -- JULY 31, 2005 Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited) All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a Fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns. Operating expenses such as these are deducted from the Fund`s gross income and directly reduce your final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the Fund's average net assets; this percentage is known as the Fund's expense ratio. The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period. The table on the next page illustrates your Fund's costs in two ways: o ACTUAL FUND RETURN. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that your Fund incurred over the period. The "Expenses Paid During Period" column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the "Ending Account Value" number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the fund's gross investment return. You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the fund, to estimate the expenses your Fund incurred over that period. Simply divide your actual starting account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under "Expenses Paid During Period." o HYPOTHETICAL 5% RETURN. This section helps you compare your Fund's costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund's comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the "Expense Paid During Period" column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds. NOTE: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes -- NOT your Fund's actual return -- the account values shown do not apply to your specific investment. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 44 SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 ================================================================================ BEGINNING ENDING EXPENSE ACCOUNT ACCOUNT ANNUALIZED PAID VALUE VALUE EXPENSE DURING 2/01/05 7/31/05 RATIOS PERIOD* -

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 45 ================================================================================ Board of Trustees Considerations in Approving the Continuation of Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) The SEI Daily Income Trust ("the Trust") and SEI Investments Management Corporation ("SIMC") have entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement"). Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, SIMC oversees the investment advisory services provided to each series of the Trust (each, a "Fund" and, collectively, the "Funds") and may manage the cash portion of the Funds' assets. Pursuant to a separate sub-advisory agreement (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement" and, together with the Advisory Agreement, the "Investment Advisory Agreements") with SIMC, and under the supervision of SIMC and the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board"), the Sub-Advisers are responsible for the day-to-day investment management of all or a discrete portion of the assets of the Funds. The Sub-Advisers also are responsible for managing their employees who provide services to these Funds. The Sub-Advisers are selected based primarily upon the research and recommendations of SIMC, which evaluates quantitatively, and qualitatively each Sub-Adviser's skills and investment results in managing assets for specific asset classes, investment styles and strategies. The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") requires that the initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, each Fund's Investment Advisory Agreements must be specifically approved: (i) by the vote of the Board of Trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the Fund; and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Investment Advisory Agreements or "interested persons" of any party (the "Independent Trustees"), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with their consideration of such approvals, the Fund's Trustees must request and evaluate, and SIMC and the Sub-Advisers are required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreements. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") takes the position that, as part of their fiduciary duties with respect to a mutual fund's fees, mutual fund boards are required to evaluate the material factors applicable to a decision to approve an Investment Advisory Agreement. Consistent with these responsibilities, the Trust's Board of Trustees calls and holds meetings each year that are dedicated to considering whether to renew the Investment Advisory Agreements between the Trust and SIMC and SIMC and each of the Sub-Advisers with respect to the Funds of the Trust. In preparation for these meetings, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by SIMC and the Sub-Advisers, including information about SIMC's and the Sub-Advisers' affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to Fund operations and Fund performance. The Trustees also receive a memorandum from Fund counsel and independent counsel to the Independent Trustees regarding the responsibilities of Trustees in connection with their consideration of whether to approve the Trust's Investment Advisory Agreements. Finally, the Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers. Specifically, the Board requested and received written materials from SIMC and each Sub-Adviser regarding: (a) the quality of SIMC's and Sub-Advisers' investment management and other services; (b) SIMC's and Sub-Advisers' investment management personnel; (c) SIMC's and Sub-Advisers' operations and financial condition; (d) SIMC's and Sub-Advisers' brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements) and investment strategies; (e) the level of the advisory fees that SIMC and each Sub-Adviser charges a Fund compared with the fees each charges to comparable mutual funds; (f) a Fund's overall fees and operating expenses compared with similar mutual funds; (g) the level of SIMC's and each Sub-Adviser's profitability from its Fund-related operations; (h) SIMC's and Sub-Advisers' compliance systems; (i) SIMC's and Sub-Advisers' policies on and compliance procedures for personal securities transactions; (j) SIMC's and Sub-Advisers' reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and/or international financial markets; and (k) each Fund's performance compared with similar mutual funds. At the March 9, 2005 meeting of the Board of Trustees, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the Investment Advisory Agreements and approved the selection of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers to act in their respective capacities for the Funds. The Board's approval was based on its consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at the meetings and at prior meetings, including: o the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Investment Advisory Agreements, including the resources of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates dedicated to the Funds; o each Fund's investment performance and how it compared to that of other comparable mutual funds; - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 46 SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 ================================================================================ o each Fund's expenses under each Investment Advisory Agreement and how those expenses compared to those of other comparable mutual funds; o the profitability of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates with respect to each Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates; and o the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Investment Advisory Agreements reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors. NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES. The Board of Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by SIMC and the Sub-Advisers to the Funds and the resources of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, SIMC's and the Sub-Advisers' personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. Following evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the nature, extent and quality of services provided by SIMC and the Sub-Advisers to the Funds and the resources of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements. FUND PERFORMANCE. The Board of Trustees considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Investment Advisory Agreements. Specifically, the Trustees considered each Fund's performance relative to its peer group and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of the peer group and selection criteria. In evaluating performance, the Trustees considered both market risk and shareholder risk expectations for a given Fund. Following evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements. FUND EXPENSES. With respect to the Funds' expenses under the Investment Advisory Agreements, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Investment Advisory Agreements and each Fund's net operating expense ratio in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds. The Trustees also considered information about average expense ratios of comparable mutual funds in each Fund's respective peer group. Finally, the Trustees considered the effects of SIMC's voluntary waiver of management and other fees and the Sub-Advisers' fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap and that SIMC and the Sub-Advisers, through waivers, have maintained the Funds' net operating expenses at competitive levels for their respective distribution channels. Following evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements. PROFITABILITY. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered all compensation flowing to SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates, directly or indirectly. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Investment Advisory Agreements and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Funds by SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the profitability of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers is reasonable and supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements. ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those were passed along to a Fund's shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by SIMC and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale. Based on the Trustees' deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreements and concluded that the compensation under the Investment Advisory Agreements is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEI Daily Income Trust / Semi-Annual Report / July 31, 2005 47 ================================================================================ Notes ================================================================================ Notes ================================================================================ Notes ================================================================================ Notes ================================================================================ Notes ================================================================================ SEI DAILY INCOME TRUST SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT JULY 31, 2005 Robert A.
