Rowe Price Corporate Income Fund - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Certified Shareholder Report and Financials Dear Shareholder, We are pleased that your fund had a strong return of 12.86% during the 12 months ended May 31, 2003, as it benefited from declining long-term interest rates. It outperformed the Lipper Corporate Debt BBB Funds Average of similarly managed funds during the period but trailed the unmanaged Lehman Brothers Baa U.S. Credit Index, as shown in the table on the preceding page. The fund's fiscal year was divided into two distinct halves as higher-quality bonds outperformed lower-quality securities during the first six months, while the pattern was reversed for the latter six-month period. Major Index Returns - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12-Month Year Ended 5/31/03 Return - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lehman Brothers U.S. Treasury Securities Index 14.22% Lehman Brothers U.S. Aggregate Index 11.58 Lehman Brothers U.S. Credit Index 16.06 Lehman Brothers Mortgage-Backed Securities Index 6.42 CS First Boston High Yield Index 13.25 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Source: Lehman Brothers and CS First Boston. As you know, the fund seeks to provide high income and some capital growth by investing primarily in corporate bonds with at least 65% of net assets in securities rated AAA, AA, A, and BBB by at least one rating agency. This strategy provides us with some flexibility in pursuing the fund's objective by allowing a portion of fund assets to be invested in lower-quality investment-grade bonds. Quality Diversification - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Rated and Above 23 BBB Rated 71 BB Rated 5 B Rated 1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on net assets as of 5/31/03. The Major Index Returns table shows how varying-quality bonds performed over the fund's fiscal year. Higher-quality bonds such as Treasuries and higher-rated corporate securities did slightly better than their lower-rated counterparts over the 12-month period, although high yield bonds rallied in recent months. Ninety-four percent of portfolio assets were rated BBB or above, and the balance was diversified among BB and B securities, as shown in the Quality Diversification chart. The Interest Rate Levels chart reflects the pattern of bond yields during the same period. Yields declined in general as the economy remained sluggish, an environment that benefits higher-quality bonds with longer maturities.

Rowe Price research. The Portfolio Characteristics table shows various portfolio details as of May 31, 2003, compared with one year ago. The weighted average maturity of the portfolio shortened over the course of the year, while quality of the portfolio's holdings rose slightly from BBB+ to A- within the investment-grade spectrum. Our positioning in weaker sectors hindered fund results during the first six months of the fiscal year, but relative performance was stronger during the past six months when many of those bonds rebounded. We thank you for your continued support. Respectfully, James S. Riepe Chairman June 20, 2003 T.

T. Rowe Price Corporate Income Fund - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Certified Shareholder Report and Financials May 31, 2003 Notes to Financial Statements - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES T. Rowe Price Corporate Income Fund, Inc. (the fund) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as a diversified, open-end management investment company and commenced operations on October 31, 1995. The fund seeks to provide high income and some capital growth. The accompanying financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the use of estimates made by fund management. Valuation Investments are valued at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4 p.m. ET, each day that the NYSE is open for business. Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market. Securities with original maturities of one year or more are valued at prices furnished by dealers who make markets in such securities or by an independent pricing service, which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, and type, as well as prices quoted by dealers who make markets in such securities. Securities with original maturities less than one year are stated at fair value, which is determined by using a matrix system that establishes a value for each security based on bid-side money market yields. Equity securities listed or regularly traded on a securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market are valued at the last quoted sale price, or official closing price for certain markets, at the time the valuations are made. A security that is listed or traded on more than one exchange is valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the primary market for such security. Listed securities not traded on a particular day are valued at the mean of the latest bid and ask prices for domestic securities and the last quoted sale price for international securities. Investments in mutual funds are valued at the closing net asset value per share of the mutual fund on the day of valuation. Purchased and written options are valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask prices. Financial futures contracts are valued at closing settlement prices. Other investments and those for which the above valuation procedures are inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the officers of the fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors. Most foreign markets close before the NYSE. Developments that could affect the values of securities that occur between the close of a foreign market and the close of the NYSE normally will not be reflected in security valuations. However, if such developments are so significant that they will, in the judgment of the officers of the fund, clearly and materially affect the value of securities, the previous closing prices may be adjusted to reflect the fair value of the securities as of the close of the NYSE, as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the officers of the fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors. Currency Translation Assets, including investments, and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar values each day at the prevailing exchange rate, using the mean of the bid and ask prices of such currencies against U.S. dollars as quoted by a major bank. Purchases and sales of securities, income, and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of the transaction. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on realized and unrealized security gains and losses is reflected as a component of such gains and losses. Premiums and Discounts Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized for financial reporting purposes. Expenses Paid Indirectly Credits earned on temporarily uninvested cash balances at the custodian are used to reduce the fund's custody charges. Other Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded by the fund on the ex-dividend date. NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS Consistent with its investment objective, the fund engages in the following practices to manage exposure to certain risks or enhance performance. The investment objective, policies, program, and risk factors of the fund are described more fully in the fund's prospectus and Statement of Additional Information. Futures Contracts During the year ended May 31, 2003, the fund was a party to futures contracts, which provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another of a specified amount of a specific financial instrument at an agreed upon price, date, time, and place. Risks arise from possible illiquidity of the futures market and from movements in security values. Options Call and put options give the holder the right to purchase or sell, respectively, a security at a specified price on a certain date. Risks arise from possible illiquidity of the options market and from movements in security values. Options are reflected in the accompanying Statement of Net Assets at market value. Transactions in options written and related premiums received during the year ended May 31, 2003, were as follows: Number of Contracts Premiums Outstanding at beginning of period 535 $ 192,000 Written 512 180,000 Closed (1,015) (343,000) Outstanding at end of period 32,000 $ 29,000 ------ --------------- Other Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term and U.S. government securities, aggregated $79,777,000 and $57,800,000, respectively, for the year ended May 31, 2003. Purchases and sales of U.S. government securities aggregated $21,892,000 and $20,669,000, respectively, for the year ended May 31, 2003. NOTE 3 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES No provision for federal income taxes is required since the fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute to shareholders all of its taxable income and gains. Federal income tax regulations differ from generally accepted accounting principles; therefore, distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ significantly in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Temporary differences are not adjusted. Distributions during the year ended May 31, 2003 totaled $5,460,000 and were characterized as ordinary income. At May 31, 2003, the tax-basis components of net assets were as follows: Unrealized appreciation $10,709,000 Unrealized depreciation (2,000,000) Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) 8,709,000 Undistributed ordinary income 856,000 Capital loss carryforwards (8,364,000) Paid-in capital 110,279,000 Net assets $111,480,000 ------------ Pursuant to federal income tax regulations applicable to investment companies, the fund has elected to treat net capital losses realized between November 1 and May 31 of each year as occurring on the first day of the following tax year. Consequently, $38,000 of realized losses reflected in the accompanying financial statements will not be recognized for tax purposes until 2004. Federal income tax regulations require the fund to defer recognition of capital losses realized on certain covered option transactions; accordingly, $45,000 of realized losses reflected in the accompanying financial statements have not been recognized for tax purposes as of May 31, 2003. The fund intends to retain realized gains to the extent of available capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. As of May 31, 2003, the fund had $752,000 of capital loss carryforwards that expire in 2007, $2,984,000 that expire in 2008, and $4,628,000 that expire thereafter through 2011. For the year ended May 31, 2003, the fund recorded the following permanent reclassifications to reflect tax character. Reclassifications between income and gain relate primarily to the character of paydown gains and losses on asset-backed securities. Results of operations and net assets were not affected by these reclassifications. Undistributed net investment income $ 5,000 Undistributed net realized gain (5,000) At May 31, 2003, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $101,942,000. NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The fund is managed by T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (the manager or Price Associates), a wholly owned subsidiary of T. Rowe Price Group, Inc. The investment management agreement between the fund and the manager provides for an annual investment management fee, which is computed daily and paid monthly. The fee consists of an individual fund fee, equal to 0.15% of the fund's average daily net assets, and the fund's pro-rata share of a group fee. The group fee is calculated based on the combined net assets of certain mutual funds sponsored by Price Associates (the group) applied to a graduated fee schedule, with rates ranging from 0.48% for the first $1 billion of assets to 0.295% for assets in excess of $120 billion. The fund's portion of the group fee is determined by the ratio of its net assets to those of the group. At May 31, 2003, the effective annual group fee rate was 0.32%, and investment management fee payable totaled $34,000. Under the terms of the investment management agreement, the manager is required to bear any expenses, excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses, through September 30, 2005, which would cause the fund's ratio of total expenses to average net assets (expense ratio) to exceed 0.80%. Thereafter, through September 30, 2007, the fund is required to reimburse the manager for these expenses, provided that average net assets have grown or expenses have declined sufficiently to allow reimbursement without causing the fund's expense ratio to exceed 0.80%. Pursuant to this agreement, $109,000 of management fees were not accrued by the fund for the year ended May 31, 2003. Unaccrued fees in the amount of $213,000 remain subject to reimbursement by the fund through May 31, 2005. In addition, the fund has entered into service agreements with Price Associates and two wholly owned subsidiaries of Price Associates (collectively, Price). Price Associates computes the daily share price and maintains the financial records of the fund. T. Rowe Price Services, Inc. provides shareholder and administrative services in its capacity as the fund's transfer and dividend disbursing agent. T. Rowe Price Retirement Plan Services, Inc. provides subaccounting and recordkeeping services for certain retirement accounts invested in the fund. Expenses incurred pursuant to these service agreements totaled $210,000 for the year ended May 31, 2003, of which $20,000 was payable at period-end. The fund may invest in the T. Rowe Price Reserve Investment Fund and T. Rowe Price Government Reserve Investment Fund (collectively, the Reserve Funds), open-end management investment companies managed by Price Associates. The Reserve Funds are offered as cash management options only to mutual funds, trusts, and other accounts managed by Price Associates and/or its affiliates, and are not available to the public. The Reserve Funds pay no investment management fees. Distributions from the Reserve Funds to the fund for the year ended May 31, 2003, totaled $35,000. The fund may invest in T. Rowe Price Institutional High Yield Fund, Inc. (High Yield Fund), an open-end management investment company managed by Price Associates, as a means of gaining efficient and cost-effective exposure to the high yield bond markets. On May 19, 2003, the fund purchased 738,046 shares of High Yield Fund, at the net asset value per share on that date, by transferring portfolio securities valued at $7,742,000 to High Yield Fund. For financial reporting and tax purposes, the fund realized a net gain of $348,000 on the transfer, reflecting the amount that fair value of the transferred securities on the date of transfer exceeded cost. At May 31, 2003, the fund held approximately 1.7% of High Yield Fund's outstanding shares and, during the year then ended, the fund received distributions from High Yield Fund in the amount of $21,000. The High Yield Fund pays an annual all-inclusive management and administrative fee to Price Associates equal to 0.50% of average daily net assets. Because the fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of this fee, Price Associates has agreed to permanently reduce the fund's investment management fee by the amount of expense incurred by High Yield Fund as a result of the fund's investment therein. Pursuant to this agreement, the fund's management fee was reduced by $1,000 during the year ended May 31, 2003. T.
