STEWART JR., PHD, CFA ) PRESIDENT OF WASATCH FUNDS FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS: I think the overall economy is in a good place. Six months ago, I said that despite the quagmire in Iraq, the Federal Reserve's relentless run of raising short-term rates, rising energy prices, fear of runaway inflation and the hand-wringing about our "jobless" recovery, I still felt pretty good about the economy. Today, despite ongoing problems in Iraq, the Fed's propensity to continue raising rates and the paranoia about inflation that always accompanies economic concern, I still feel optimistic. One of my preferred personal barometers of economic health is not terribly scientific, but, nonetheless, usually pretty reliable: the number of "Help Wanted" signs I see. Whether I'm in Salt Lake or midtown Manhattan, I have the distinct feeling that I've seen a steady increase in this sort of signage in the past year. On the surface it's not unlike what we saw at the stock market's peak in 2000, only today I suspect there is more substance than sizzle behind those employment signs. On top of that, notwithstanding the fact that the price of oil has continued to climb, inflation seems to be trending down and long-term interest rates have been largely unaffected. One commonly accepted economic theory is that what really drives interest rates is the anticipation of inflation down the road. Some intelligent people I know believe it's mainly inflation anxiety that pushes long-term rates up. But that's just not happening. We've had two additional bumps by the Fed and those long-term rates refuse to budge. To me that suggests that a fair number of pretty smart people have confidence in the prospects for the economy. Could I be wrong? I've certainly been wrong before. Is there some economic force out there getting ready to ruin my optimistic scenario? If I had to guess what that negative factor might be, I suppose I'd lean on the notion that the economy has a built-in lag. In the current scheme, that would mean that the Fed's rate hikes will eventually push those long-term interest rates up, which, eventually, will negatively influence investment decisions and job creation. You could probably make the same "lag" argument as it applies to the price of oil. But, personally, I don't think it's true. The one thing that does get my attention is all the talk about a housing bubble, and even then I have my doubts. I would be more inclined to say that there is a "lending bubble" sitting atop the housing market, that sooner or later housing prices will recede because of all the low quality mortgage money that has been shelled out. If that lending bubble bursts, I think it's a virtual certainty that housing prices will settle down. Then the question to ask is: if that happens, could a housing slowdown precipitate credit problems which would create some sort of self-reinforcing cycle? I think history suggests this is not likely to happen. So I'm betting that even if housing prices cool, the impact on the overall economy would not be cataclysmic. I should mention, too, that while the natural disasters that struck the Gulf Coast wreaked havoc on a great many individuals, I believe their overall economic impact will be a blip on the radar screen. That is not meant to diminish the tragedy we all watched unfold on the news. It's just that in the long run those hurricanes will not have an enduring impact on the economy. So, yes, I'll take the current economic climate over lots of other economic periods in the past. WASATCH FUNDS As for our performance over the past fiscal year, I think the numbers tell the story: We are still roughly in the middle of the pack. Most of you who've been with us for a while know that our best periods of outperformance versus our benchmarks generally occur during bear markets, that we may underperform in bull markets, and hang around the middle when the market is in the middle of the road. And I would say this market has been middling along for at least the past 18 months. I don't want that to sound like I'm making excuses or satisfied with being in the middle of the pack. But this is a tough market for a shop like ours to find value in; stocks that are obviously good are expensive, and those that are comparatively cheap are of low quality. 2 SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 That said, I believe we can do a lot better. After three decades in this business, we are still capable of making occasional mistakes that, in hindsight, have us shaking our heads. During the year, we've increased our analytical capacity considerably at Wasatch, and, to my way of thinking, that kind of added brainpower should cut down on our unforced errors. (An unforced error is a tennis reference and can result from several outcomes, but it's always a lost point that has little to do with the opponent. In tennis, unforced errors are a ticket to failure.) Everyday we try to get better at what we do on your behalf. Our only advantage in this business is performance. If we don't deliver consistent performance over the long run, I'd recommend you take your money elsewhere. Really. Now that I've gotten your attention, I want to say something that, in my opinion, cannot be said too often: your expectations for investment returns are still too high. The double-digit delivery of the '90s is--literally and figuratively--a thing of the past. Too many people I meet are still stuck in the 1990's mentality. They think the market is going to produce 20% and 30% returns. I think they are dreaming, and I tell them so. I believe we are looking at a future featuring single-digit investment returns. I think somebody doing really well in the years ahead might be able to slip into the low double-digits occasionally. I tell you this because I believe we are obliged to tell the truth to our shareholders about what lies ahead. It's incumbent upon us to manage your expectations. I've said it before and I intend to say it again and again: investing is a long-term game. The likelihood is that you will make money over time by getting a good single-digit return and enjoying the miracle of compounding. If you average 8% a year, your money will double in nine years. Personally, I'll take that anytime. At the end of the day, we all have to be realistic about investment returns. Patience pays in the investment world. For our part, we need to do better during times like this. We need to be disciplined and thorough in our stock-picking. We need to avoid mistakes. So, you do your part, and, I promise that we'll work as hard as humanly possible to do ours. We appreciate your investment with Wasatch Funds. Sincerely, /s/ Samuel S.

The Fund's return was higher than the 17.95% return posted by the Russell 2000 Index over the same period. As was the case with the Index, every sector in which we were invested generated positive returns. Our investments in health care companies made the largest contribution to our outperformance relative to the Index. PacifiCare Health Systems, a managed care provider, was a top contributor. In July, the company announced a merger with United HealthCare that significantly boosted its valuation. Express Scripts, a pharmacy benefit management company that reported positive earnings growth and issued a favorable earnings outlook, also helped drive results. On the other hand, AMERIGROUP, a health care provider, detracted from our return. After posting solid earnings last year, the company recently lowered earnings guidance causing its stock price to decline sharply. Currently, we view this as a short-term issue for the company, and will continue to evaluate our position. The Fund's consumer discretionary stocks, aided by our overweighting in the sector, helped us outperform the Index sector benchmark. Our focus in this sector has always been to invest in companies that we believe can grow through an economic cycle. O'Reilly Automotive, a provider of after-market automobile parts, was the top contributor in this sector and to the Fund's overall results. Copart, a company that is in the salvaged vehicle auction business, and SCP Pool, a wholesale distributor of swimming pool supplies and equipment, also contributed to our outperformance in this sector. These results were partially offset by Rent-A-Center and Dollar Tree Stores. Sales at both stores suffered as the spike in consumer gas prices took its toll on their predominantly lower-income customers. Our focus on homebuilders produced positive results within the producer durables sector. In particular, the performance of M.D.C. Holdings and NVR helped us outperform the sector benchmark during the year. However, as market fears grew over a potential slowdown in new home sales and rising mortgage rates, investors decided to lock in their profits, which caused the stocks to give back some of their earlier gains. Likewise, halfway into the calendar year we reduced our weighting in some of our homebuilders. While this turned out to be a prudent decision, we have not changed our long-term investment thesis about homebuilders: we believe their competitive advantages will allow them to capture a growing percentage of the market with good long-term earnings visibility accompanied by solid balance sheets. The Fund's largest sector weighting during the year was in financial services stocks, which produced decent--if relatively lackluster--returns. While our overweighting clearly amplified our underperformance of the benchmark in this sector, our relatively poor showing was almost entirely attributable to our investment in Doral Financial, a financial services company located in Puerto Rico. A flattening yield curve put unforeseen pressure on the company's business model and brought to light questions on earnings quality. We exited our position in the company. Offsetting Doral's results were positive returns from Fidelity National Financial, a provider of title insurance and real estate related services, and UTI Bank, one of our investments based in India. A substantial portion of the return generated by the Index was attributable to the energy and materials and processing sectors. The Fund had almost no exposure to these top-performing sectors, which created a headwind for us. As we have discussed in previous reports, we typically do not own energy or materials and processing companies because we believe their business models are generally too dependent on volatile commodity pricing. To be sure, the absence of investments in these areas has been a contrary force at times for the Fund. That said, we continue to apply our research process to these sectors, and we have identified a couple of interesting companies that we may consider adding to the Fund if the right valuation opportunities emerge. OUTLOOK Today, the valuations of our portfolio companies are more attractive. The market's downturn late in the year may offer opportunities to add to our existing holdings and certain watch-list names that excite us. Average year-over-year earnings growth for the Fund was tepid in the most recent quarter, but was still better than we expected. While there are no guarantees, we think there's a good chance it could move higher over the next 12 months. We think this environment is especially conducive to Wasatch's fundamentally driven, company-by-company stock selection process. Thank you for investing in the Core Growth Fund. 4 CORE GROWTH FUND -- PORTFOLIO SUMMARY SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS 1 YEAR 5 YEARS 10 YEARS ------ ------- -------- WASATCH CORE GROWTH FUND 18.55% 13.65% 15.69% Russell 2000 Index 17.95% 6.45% 9.37% PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE.

YOU CANNOT INVEST IN THE INDEX. 5 GLOBAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY FUND -- MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 (PHOTO OF AJAY KRISHNAN, CFA) PORTFOLIO MANAGER REVIEW OF THE YEAR The Wasatch Global Science & Technology Fund gained 27.88% in the year ended September 30 and outperformed its benchmarks. Over the same period, the Lipper Science & Technology Index (the "Lipper Index") gained 17.81%, the Russell 2000 Technology Index gained 10.34% and the Nasdaq Composite Index gained 14.19%. During the year, we had more assets invested overseas than the Lipper Index. The Fund's average weighting in U.S. companies was about 58%, while the Lipper Index averaged over 89%. Outside of the U.S., the major source of the Fund's outperformance of the Index was India. We trimmed some of our strong performing positions in India to capture profits from these stocks. Many of our non-U.S. investments were in smaller companies that we believe have outstanding growth potential given their pipelines for new products, ability to penetrate new markets and financial characteristics that support strong growth such as significant free cash flow, high return on assets and high return in equity. By economic sector, the principal drivers of our outperformance versus the Lipper Index were electronic technology, health services and health technology. While a few areas of the Fund were weak relative to the Lipper Index, none of them detracted from the Fund's return. Technology services made a substantial contribution to the Fund's performance. Our holdings performed better than those in the Lipper Index but our dramatic underweighting meant that technology services contributed less to the Fund's performance than it did to the Index's. Fund assets invested in electronic technology over the past 12 months averaged about 45%. Despite this substantial weighting, we were underweighted compared to the Lipper Index, which averaged about 51%. Within the sector, the Fund's investments were concentrated in semiconductor companies. In the past six months, business conditions improved and inventory concerns receded allowing semiconductor stock prices to rise. The top contributor to the Fund's performance overall was SiRF Technology Holdings, a developer of semiconductor solutions used in global positioning system (GPS) applications. SiRF has benefited from growing demand for GPS in wireless handheld and portable computing devices and in automobiles. Other top contributors in the semiconductor space included O2Micro, a developer of semiconductors to increase power efficiency in electronic devices, and National Semiconductor, a maker of analog semiconductors. O2Micro benefited by producing strong business results and from a favorable ruling in an intellectual property dispute. National Semiconductor posted solid earnings growth. In addition, the company's efforts to restructure and focus on higher value analog products have been regarded positively by investors. The Fund's main detractors in electronic technology were inTest and Sipex. The weak outlook for semiconductor capital equipment companies was primarily responsible for the decline of inTest's stock price. We sold Sipex as the company struggled with management issues and product missteps. We have decreased the Fund's weighting in health care services since last year at this time and focused more on investing in health technology. Accredo Health was the best contributor in health care services as Medco Health Solutions completed its acquisition of the company. In health technology, the Fund's performance was helped by investments in medical specialties, while our biotechnology holdings detracted from performance. NuVasive, a developer of devices for spine surgery, has introduced new products and produced strong earnings growth making it the Fund's top contributor in health technology. Enpath Medical, a developer of advanced vascular delivery products, produced disappointing results due to an inventory adjustment by a major customer and delays with U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of a new product. Within technology services, the Fund was more heavily weighted in information technology services than the Lipper Index and our holdings performed better than those in the Index. We garnered good results from India-based information technology services providers Cognizant Technology and Infosys Technologies. The Fund was significantly underweighted in packaged software and Internet software/services compared to the Index. Ninetowns Digital World Trade Holdings, a developer of software to enable companies and Chinese government agencies to streamline the import/export process, and Kintera, a developer of software to help non-profit organizations increase donations, produced disappointing results. We added Opera Software, a Norwegian developer of multi-platform web browsers that has benefited from growing demand for products that enable wireless web connection. Our investment in Nextel Partners was responsible for the Fund's outperformance in communications. The stock price rose on news that the company had entered into discussions to exercise its right to sell to Sprint Nextel. OUTLOOK Looking ahead, investor concerns that may weigh on stock prices include inflation, the U.S. budget deficit, the scope of economic impact from natural disasters, record high energy costs, and how these issues might affect consumer sentiment. Our focus is to remain disciplined in our approach by thoroughly researching the growth potential and valuation of prospective investments and continually monitoring our existing investments. We continue to look for opportunities around the globe. Science and technology companies outside of the U.S. are not as richly valued as comparable U.S. companies. We have found this to be especially true in Asia where we see interesting opportunities in countries like Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan. We believe that global investing in science and technology companies has the potential to help you achieve your long-term investment objectives. Thank you for investing in the Wasatch Global Science & Technology Fund. 6 GLOBAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY FUND -- PORTFOLIO SUMMARY SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS SINCE INCEPTION 1 YEAR 5 YEARS 12/19/00 ------ ------- --------------- WASATCH GLOBAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY FUND 27.88% N/A 6.05% Lipper Science & Technology Index 17.81% N/A -11.24% Russell 2000 Technology Index 10.34% N/A -10.42% Nasdaq Composite Index 14.19% N/A -3.61% PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE.

THE LIPPER SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY INDEX is a composite of mutual funds that invest in science and technology companies and have investment objectives similar to those of the Fund. THE RUSSELL 2000 TECHNOLOGY INDEX is a capitalization-weighted index of companies that serve the electronics and computer industries or that manufacture products based on the latest applied science. The Russell 2000 Index is an unmanaged total return index of the smallest 2,000 companies in the Russell 3000 Index, as ranked by total market capitalization. The Russell 2000 Index is widely regarded in the industry as accurately capturing the universe of small company stocks. THE NASDAQ COMPOSITE INDEX is unmanaged and measures all Nasdaq domestic and non-U.S. based common stocks listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Index is market-value weighted. This means each company's security affects the Index in proportion to its market value. The market value, the last sale price multiplied by total shares outstanding, is calculated throughout the trading day, and is related to the total value of the Index. Due to their number and size, technology stocks tend to dominate the direction of the Index.

The Fund's return was below that of the Russell Midcap Growth Index (the "Index"), which added 23.47%, and the Russell Midcap Index, which gained 25.10%, but was better than the Russell 1000 Growth Index, which gained 11.60%. In subsequent reports, we plan to drop the Russell Midcap Index as a benchmark for the Fund. A significant driver of the Fund's underperformance relative to the Index was derived from sector allocation. In particular, limited exposure to two of the best-performing sectors--energy and materials and processing--as well as weak performance from our financial services sector. The fundamentals of companies held by the Fund were very solid. The average annual captured earnings growth reported by the Fund's holdings continued to be in the high-teens. The Fund's portfolio continued to be reasonably valued with a price-to-earnings ratio roughly in line with the growth rate. From the perspective of future investment results, we are optimistic that if our companies can continue to grow earnings and their valuations remain reasonable, long-term performance should be positive. In the energy sector, our holdings were up more than those in the Index but our significant underweighting in the sector held back performance relative to the Index. The Fund was also significantly underweighted in the materials and processing sector. However, our holdings in this sector detracted from the Fund's performance while those in the Index added to its performance. The underperformance of these two sectors created a headwind that was a major contributor to the Fund's underperformance of the Index. We have traditionally avoided companies in these sectors because their business models are generally dependent on volatile commodity prices and it can be difficult to find companies capable of consistent, predictable growth. Even the best run companies in these sectors can fall prey to a prolonged drop in the prices of their products--a factor over which they have little control. We prefer to invest in companies that can shape their destinies and do not rely so heavily on outside forces. That said, we believe the current energy cycle may possess some attractive underlying long-term growth characteristics. The current global economic expansion is sustaining the growing worldwide demand for raw materials and may be turning the energy sector into more of a fundamental growth driver. After spending considerable time applying our disciplined stock research process to the energy area, we have begun to invest in what we believe are attractive long-term opportunities. The Fund's financial services holdings detracted the most from the Fund's performance relative to the Index. Rising short-term interest rates and a flattening yield curve caused some of our companies to lower earnings estimates, which in turn depressed their stock prices. A large drop in Doral Financial, a diversified financial services company, was by far the biggest detractor from the Fund's overall return. We believe the company's drop in valuation was partly attributable to interest rate fears and partly to concerns over earnings quality stemming from a change in the company's accounting procedures. We have significantly reduced our weight in the stock and continue to monitor our position closely. On a more positive note, our holdings in the health care sector were up during the year and ahead of the companies tracked by the Index. The Fund and the Index had a nearly identical weight in this sector, so stock selection had the largest effect on our outperformance. Our top contributors were WellPoint and PacifiCare Health Systems, managed care providers. Both companies were involved in mergers that boosted the value of their stocks. Partially offsetting our positive results was our investment in AMERIGROUP, a managed care provider that late in the year pre-announced a weak quarter and lowered earnings guidance, cutting its stock value in half. We were overweighted in homebuilding companies within the producer durables sector, and our holdings performed better than those in the benchmark. NVR and D.R. Horton were the Fund's top contributors in this sector. The stock prices of some of our homebuilders declined in the last couple months of the Fund's fiscal year, despite reporting strong earnings growth. Although there may be some risk of cooling demand in housing that may affect public homebuilding companies in the short run, we have not changed our investment thesis: we believe they can succeed by growing market share, maintaining terrific long-term earnings visibility, and leveraging their balance sheets. The solid performance of these companies illustrates the importance that Wasatch places on looking through market pessimism to invest in companies that may provide sustainable competitive advantages over the long run. OUTLOOK The earnings growth of companies held by the Fund has been strong. In addition, these companies seem to be valued in a range where they may be able to generate good upside potential. We continue to work on concentrating the Fund's assets in what we believe are high quality companies--both domestic and international--that have solid growth prospects and are attractively valued. By remaining focused on this strategy, we believe the Fund will have the potential to help you achieve your long-term investment objectives. We appreciate the opportunity to manage your assets. 8 HERITAGE GROWTH FUND -- PORTFOLIO SUMMARY SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS SINCE INCEPTION 1 YEAR 5 YEARS 6/18/04 ------ ------- --------------- WASATCH HERITAGE GROWTH FUND 15.95% N/A 10.96% Russell Midcap Growth Index 23.47% N/A 15.62% Russell 1000 Growth Index 11.60% N/A 4.91% Russell Midcap Index 25.10% N/A 20.34% PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE.

Investing in mid cap funds can be more volatile and loss of principal could be greater than investing in large cap funds. Equity investing involves risks, including potential loss of the principal amount invested. Being non-diversified, the Fund can invest a larger portion of its assets in the stocks of a limited number of companies than a diversified fund. Non-diversification increases the risk of loss to the Fund if the values of these securities decline.

Most countries around the world posted strong performance during the year as evidenced by the 36.58% gain of the MSCI World Ex-U.S.A. Small Cap Index. As of September 30, we owned 83 companies in 22 countries. The weighted average market capitalization of the Fund's portfolio was approximately $1.5 billion, while the median market cap was about $804 million. Estimated earnings growth for the next three years in the portfolio is about 19%, and we have been paying on average about 18 times forward earnings for that growth. The Fund benefited from notable outperformance of the Index in several countries including France, Germany and Switzerland, where we were overweighted compared to the Index. Our underweighting in Japan, Australia, Italy and the United Kingdom contributed to our underperformance of the Index, as did our overweighting and the weak performance of some holdings in Singapore and Canada. We continue to see improving economic growth in Japan. We have been adding to our weight in Japan as we have found companies that fit our criteria for revenue and earnings growth that are selling at reasonable price-to-earnings multiples. Japan was our largest country weight at nearly 20%. Exposure to emerging markets benefited the Fund, as a number of the markets were extremely strong, and traded at high price-to-earnings multiples relative to where they have been historically. While we retain our positive long run view of many of the world's developing markets, we took profits and trimmed some of our emerging market positions. India contributed the most to the Fund's return and was our largest emerging market weight at nearly 5%. The Fund's largest sector weights continue to be those that we believe have the strongest growth potential. As of September 30, these were consumer discretionary, health care, and information technology. These sectors contributed more to the Fund's performance than to the Index's. We were underweighted in industrials and financials and did not own any companies in the materials sector. Our lack of holdings in these areas hurt the Fund's relative performance. Materials was an extremely strong area of the market, driven mostly by the seemingly insatiable demand from China and India for all kinds of raw materials. The top contributors to the Fund's performance over the past 12 months represented a variety of countries and industries. The Fund's best performer and top contributor was Pantaloon, one of India's few organized retailers. The company is successfully expanding before other international players are allowed to enter the country. The performance of Orpea, a nursing home operator, was driven by continued strong demand for nursing home beds in France. Two United Kingdom-based oil and gas companies, Soco International and Cairn Energy, benefited from recent discovery and development success. Both companies excel at finding and developing new oil and gas fields in "frontier" areas such as Vietnam, Mongolia and India. Continued job growth in Japan drove the performance of en-Japan, an Internet employment agency. We also received good results from Elekta, a Swedish manufacturer of radiology equipment, and Bijou Brigitte, a costume jewelry retailer based in Germany. Home Capital, a Canadian alternative mortgage lender, did well for the Fund as did HDFC Bank, a provider of consumer loans and financial services that is now in over 280 cities throughout India. Despite broad-based solid performance from among the Fund's holdings, there were some notable detractors. We were disappointed in the performance of Acadomia Groupe, a provider of educational services in France, and SkyePharma, a United Kingdom specialty pharmaceutical and drug delivery company that suffered disappointment associated with the development of a new drug as well as slower than expected royalties on existing products. Angiotech Pharmaceuticals, a Canadian company that developed the drug coating for Boston Scientific's highly successful Taxus drug-coated stent has transitioned from concept to profitability but the stock underperformed in recent months. Companies that detracted from performance, no longer met our investment criteria and were sold included Clarion, MFS Technology, Ninetowns Digital World Trade Holdings, Sanctuary Group, Accord Customer Care Solutions and Doral Financial. Doral, mentioned in our last report, was the Fund's biggest detractor for the 12-month period. OUTLOOK The high price of oil is one of the major factors impacting economies around the world. This might result in slowing down consumers during the winter as they cope with high heating bills and gasoline prices. In Europe, where consumers are already struggling with the sluggish economy and slow job growth, this could have particularly negative impact. Although Hurricane Katrina may cause foreign companies temporary difficulties in the New Orleans port, a major hub for importers and exporters, they are most vulnerable to Katrina's aftermath in their general exposure to the U.S. economy. The U.S. continues to be the primary engine of world economic growth, and to the extent the U.S. economy slows down, economies overseas will be impacted. We are paying a great deal of attention to the exposure our companies have to the U.S. economy. Higher interest rates in the U.S. and many other parts of the world will also likely slow the global economy through the end of 2005 and into 2006. Conversely, higher interest rates in Japan will likely be viewed positively as a sign of economic growth and the end of deflation. We continue to focus on investing in what we believe are the best small companies from around the world. We believe our disciplined process and international scope will help us identify companies with the potential to help you achieve your long-term investment objectives.

YOU CANNOT INVEST IN THE INDEX. 11 INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND -- MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 The Wasatch International Opportunities Fund is managed by a team of Wasatch portfolio managers. REVIEW SINCE INCEPTION Since inception on January 27, 2005 through September 30, 2005, the Wasatch International Opportunities Fund gained 9.50%. Over same period the MSCI World Ex-U.S.A. Small Cap Index gained 15.23%. Much of the Fund's shortfall in performance relative to the Index can be attributed to not being fully invested throughout the period and holding foreign currencies when the U.S. dollar was strengthening. As of September 30, the Fund was over 90% invested and we continue to make good progress toward being fully invested. Our investments were broadly diversified among countries and sectors. The countries contributing the most to performance were Norway, Sweden and Japan. South Korea, New Zealand and France were the biggest detractors. Throughout the year, we have been able to find small companies in many markets around the world that are characterized by high return on assets and high return on equity, have good growth prospects and are reasonably valued. We have traveled to Europe, Asia, Australia, Canada and New Zealand spending considerable time in face-to-face meetings with management teams. Japan was the Fund's most heavily weighted country but we were still underweighted versus the Index. Japan is increasingly attractive to us as consumer sentiment seems to be improving, Prime Minister Koizumi appears to have a strong mandate to overhaul the banking system, and a better outlook for land prices makes property ownership more desirable. In Japan, our largest position and top contributor was Takeuchi Manufacturing, a manufacturer of mini excavation equipment that has been enjoying strong global demand for its products. On the other hand, Arbeit-Times, a Tokyo-based publisher of a free magazine containing job information, reported disappointing earnings and detracted from performance. We have made a few investments that we feel may benefit from a turnaround in the Japanese real estate market. Among these, the best performer was Joint Corp., a residential developer mainly of condominiums. Although Japan contributed significantly to the Fund's performance, our Japanese holdings underperformed those in the Index. In Norway and Sweden, all but one of our investments added value to the Fund and made these countries the best contributors to performance. RaySearch Laboratories, Det Norske Oljeselskap (DNO) and Acta Holdings were the leading contributors. RaySearch, a Swedish developer of dosage optimization software for radiology treatment, has been growing by licensing its software to radiology equipment manufacturers. DNO is an oil exploration company that we feel is still undervalued despite the strong move in its stock price related to a significant discovery in Yemen. Acta Holdings is a network of financial advisors benefiting from the trend among Norwegians to reallocate assets from bank deposits to other investments. Our investments in Australia were concentrated in natural resources companies that have benefited from persistently high energy prices and China's insatiable need for raw materials. Tap Oil, an oil and gas discovery and production company with operations in Australia's Carnarvon Basin, was the best performer from among our Australian holdings. Consolidated Minerals, a provider of raw materials such as manganese and chromite used in the production of carbon and stainless steel, also did well. In South Korea, we have found some interesting small companies with the balance sheet quality and growth characteristics we seek. Unfortunately, our Korean stocks did not do as well as we expected them to primarily due to weakness in Able C&C, a cosmetics company that announced disappointing numbers. Although our holdings did not produce returns reflective of the health we see in this market, we remain positive on their long-term growth prospects. We also found growing small companies that we viewed as undervalued in Singapore. As a group, our Singapore holdings contributed to the Fund's performance. However, we underperformed the Index in this market largely due to Accord Customer Care Solutions. Accord was investigated for fraudulent accounting and we sold our position. Performance was mixed for our Canadian holdings. A top contributor was Bow Valley Energy. Bow uses technology to improve the production of mature oil fields and has assets in Canada and the North Sea. We reduced our position in Allen-Vanguard, a maker of anti-terrorism products. The company struggled as bureaucratic red tape held up contract approvals. The business results of CoolBrands, a Canadian distributor of brand name frozen treats, also suffered due to a price war between two of its distribution customers. Our best performer in the Hong Kong market was Ports Design, a fashion retailer with a significant presence in China. We were attracted to Ports due to its conservative management, healthy balance sheet, solid margins and strong same store sales growth. On the other hand, Varitronix International, a manufacturer of liquid crystal displays, fell short of expectations and was sold as the company struggled with poor demand for its handset products and declining momentum in other business lines. Many retail companies in the United Kingdom were affected by a slowdown in consumer spending. Among them were two Fund holdings--flooring retailer Topps Tiles and fashion retailer Ted Baker. OUTLOOK The global economy may be entering a difficult period due to uncertainty over inflation, concern over high energy prices and less than robust consumer spending in many parts of the world. These conditions are likely to increase volatility in the world's equity markets. Our focus will be to identify globally competitive small companies. We believe these companies can potentially attract investors because they are led by experienced management teams, have consistently strong business results and are undervalued. We also continually reassess the companies held by the Fund and will increase or decrease our positions based on our confidence in their fundamentals and the opportunities we see. We appreciate your investment in the Wasatch International Opportunities Fund. 12 INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND -- PORTFOLIO SUMMARY SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS SINCE INCEPTION 1 YEAR 5 YEARS 1/27/05* ------ ------- --------------- WASATCH INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND N/A N/A 9.50% MSCI World Ex-U.S.A.

SMALL CAP INDEX is an unmanaged index that measures the performance of stocks with market capitalizations between U.S. $200 million and $1.5 billion across 22 developed markets, excluding the United States. YOU CANNOT INVEST IN THE INDEX. 13 MICRO CAP FUND -- MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 (PHOTO OF ROBERT GARDINER, CFA) PORTFOLIO MANAGER (PHOTO OF DANIEL CHACE, CFA) PORTFOLIO MANAGER REVIEW OF THE YEAR The Wasatch Micro Cap Fund had a return of 26.42% for the 12 months ended September 30, 2005. The Russell 2000 Index, widely used to gauge the performance of small company stocks, returned 17.95% over the same period. Most of the Fund's outperformance was attributable to superior stock selection in the consumer discretionary, technology and health care sectors. Our largest overweights were in these sectors, and they made the largest contributions to our outperformance versus the Index. Our international efforts also were fruitful. For the year, gains in our international holdings outpaced those of our domestic holdings. These holdings included American Depositary Receipts (ADRs--receipts issued by domestic banks for shares of foreign-based corporations that trade on U.S. stock exchanges), companies incorporated in other countries but whose shares trade on U.S. stock exchanges, and foreign stocks. Four of the Fund's top 10 contributors were international holdings. In total, non-U.S. holdings represented nearly 23% of the portfolio as of September 30 and contributed to nearly 8% of our gross return. Most of the performance came from technology and consumer investments in Western Europe and Southeast Asia. As mentioned above, a subset of our total international weighting was in foreign company stocks listed on foreign exchanges. These stocks also performed well for the Fund during the year. At year-end, roughly 15% of the Fund was invested in foreign-listed stocks, which were up almost 37% for the year and contributed over 5% of the Fund's gross return. The consumer discretionary sector was very strong for us, both domestically and internationally, and it contributed the most to our relative outperformance. Bijou Brigitte (Germany), a fashion accessories company, was our top performer in this group and for the Fund overall. Other top contributors included O'Reilly Automotive, a specialty retailer of automotive aftermarket parts; and Guitar Center, a chain of music stores. Our positive results in the consumer discretionary sector were partially offset by weakness in Acadomia Groupe (France), a provider of educational services and domestic help, and Cost Plus, a retailer of casual home furnishings. Although the outlook for consumer spending remains uncertain amid higher energy prices and rising interest rates, we have been able to find smaller retailers with strong growth prospects at reasonable valuations, so we have maintained our overweighting in the sector. Our technology holdings also added to our relative performance during the year. We were overweighted in this sector and our selections greatly outperformed the comparable sector of the Index. Two of our top contributors were Fargo Electronics, a developer of printing systems for identification cards, and O2Micro (Cayman Islands), a semiconductor manufacturer. These results were partially offset by MFS Technology (Singapore), a provider of flexible printed circuit boards, and Kintera, a provider of software and services for non-profit organizations. The Fund's overweighted health care holdings were up more than those tracked by the Index. The Fund benefited the most from its investments in AmSurg, an operator of ambulatory surgery centers, Icon (Ireland), a contract researcher, Accredo Health, a service provider for individuals with chronic diseases that was acquired during the year, and AMN Healthcare, a temporary health care staffing company. We had a couple of detractors, as well: Odyssey HealthCare, a hospice care provider, and EPIX Pharmaceuticals, a provider of medical imaging technologies. We sold most of our position in Odyssey when we became concerned about a Department of Justice investigation and certain operational issues. EPIX shares declined in value as the company struggled to get its lead product approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. We were underweighted in the financial services and energy sectors, which helped and hurt our results, respectively. During the year, investors were unsettled by rising interest rates, which made it a tough environment for financial stocks. Our underweighting in finance services, coupled with our stocks performing better than those in the Index, aided our performance. On the other hand, our minimal exposure to energy provided the biggest drag on relative performance. While energy companies, on average, only comprised over 5% of the Index during the year, the sector was up over 70%. Historically, we have been underweighted in the energy sector due to the cyclicality of the industry and business models that rarely meet our stock selection criteria. Having no holdings in the utilities sector and being significantly underweighted in the materials and processing sector meant the Fund missed most of the performance these two sectors added to the Index. OUTLOOK Given that the reported earnings of our companies exceeded our expectations across a broad range of sectors and industries, and that valuations appear to be reasonable, we feel confident about the Fund's composition. Although we continue to expect solid earnings growth for our companies over the long run, the uncertain macroeconomic environment makes the near-term outlook a bit more challenging. Against this backdrop, we are emphasizing what we believe are high-quality companies at attractive valuations. We continue to seek companies that we believe offer sustainable growth independent of what is happening in the broader economy. We think is the best way to help you pursue your investment objectives over the long run. We would like to thank you for the opportunity to manage your assets. 14 MICRO CAP FUND -- PORTFOLIO SUMMARY SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS 1 YEAR 5 YEARS 10 YEARS ----- ------- -------- WASATCH MICRO CAP FUND 26.42% 19.09% 23.51% Russell 2000 Index 17.95% 6.45% 9.37% PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE.

YOU CANNOT INVEST IN THE INDEX. 15 MICRO CAP VALUE FUND -- MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 (PHOTO OF JOHN MALOOLY, CFA) PORTFOLIO MANAGER (PHOTO OF BRIAN BYTHROW, CFA) PORTFOLIO MANAGER REVIEW OF THE YEAR The Wasatch Micro Cap Value Fund returned 19.87% for the 12 months ended September 30 and outperformed the Russell 2000 Index, which was up 17.95%. We made two significant sector decisions that, when combined with solid earnings growth from our portfolio companies, produced good results. Earlier this year, we believed the U.S. consumer was going to be stretched by rising energy prices and interest rate increases. As a result, we underweighted holdings in the consumer discretionary and financial services sectors. Both decisions added to the Fund's return and contributed to our outperformance of the Index. With only a 3% average weighting in U.S. consumer discretionary companies, we concentrated our exposure outside the U.S. where we thought prospects were better. Our top contributors included Bijou Brigitte (Germany), a retailer of inexpensive fashion jewelry; easyhome (Canada), a retailer of rent-to-own furniture and electronics; and Ports Design (Hong Kong), a high-end fashion retailer. We believe all three stocks were undervalued, under-followed, and of good quality when we bought them. We are looking for opportunities around the world with similar characteristics. On the other hand, our investment in Allen-Vanguard (Canada) detracted from performance. The company provides products and services to combat terrorism, and has struggled due to delayed approval for government contracts. We think our financial sector holdings fared better than those tracked by the Index because they were of better quality or offered superior values. We avoided companies that had liability-sensitive balance sheets, such as banks whose profits can erode when interest rates rise. Instead, we focused on firms that owned variable-rate loans that can be more profitable in such environments. We also sought out franchises whose customers are mostly indifferent to rising rates, such as subprime auto lenders Nicholas Financial and United PanAm Financial, and First Cash Financial Services, an operator of pawnshops in the U.S. and Mexico. Our top contributor to this sector was Home Capital (Canada), a specialty mortgage lender. The notable detractor in the Fund's financial services sector was BFC Financial. The Fund's performance in the health care sector was in line with that of the Index but our overweighting meant this sector added more to the Fund's performance than to the Index's. NuVasive, a company that markets a less invasive spinal surgery product, helped our results. In addition, the Fund benefited from E-Z-EM, a provider of products used in screening for gastrointestinal disorders. E-Z-EM also owned a majority stake in AngioDynamics, a company with a growing leg-vein treatment business. We believed E-Z-EM's valuation would not fully reflect AngioDynamics' imbedded value until AngioDynamics was spun off, which it was in late 2004. Both companies helped our return and we subsequently sold AngioDynamics based on valuation. We currently own one other company that treats peripheral artery disease, VNUS Medical Technologies. We believe VNUS is not getting recognized for its franchise value, although we are decidedly in the minority in this opinion. A small number of our health care companies experienced product approval delays with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. ISTA Pharmaceuticals was a major detractor, as the company's product pipeline slowed and competition intensified sooner than expected. Drug research services company Discovery Partners faced offshore pricing pressure and the market became concerned about a large contract renewal; its shares shed some value. We were underweighted in the energy sector, one of the Index's best-performing sectors. Our energy companies performed better than the benchmark. Pason Systems, a Canadian oil and natural gas producer, and Energy Partners, a Gulf of Mexico exploration company, were top contributors. The autos and transportation sector, in which the Fund was overweighted, produced good returns this year. Although rising fuel costs can be a drag on some industry sectors, we like trucking companies since they typically pass fuel costs along to their customers. Our producer durables stocks, which include homebuilders and semiconductor capital equipment companies, struggled. Our public homebuilders lagged the companies tracked by the Index, which we think was mostly attributable to constraints imposed by their smaller size. As for semiconductor capital equipment companies, we believe stock valuations are very attractive, and that the industry is much closer to the bottom than the top of its cycle. The Fund's biggest detractor in the 12-month period was CoolBrands (Canada), a distributor of brand name frozen treats. We made the mistake of buying shares when the company was caught in the middle of a pricing war between two of its distribution customers. On a more positive note, IVRCL Infrastructure, our first investment in India, has profited from a construction boom currently underway in that country. OUTLOOK Concern over continued high energy prices and rising interest rates is likely to cause increased short-term stock market volatility. With that in mind, we are keeping our stock weights within moderate limits and trimming more expensive names. With the Fund's cash level comfortably within the 5% to 7% range, we intend to increase our holdings in financial services and consumer discretionary stocks as opportunities emerge. As always, our focus is on bottom-up stock selection. Consistent with our longstanding practice, we are intent on finding solid growth companies or true value, and avoiding the middle ground. We appreciate the opportunity to manage your assets. 16 MICRO CAP VALUE FUND -- PORTFOLIO SUMMARY SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS SINCE INCEPTION 1 YEAR 5 YEARS 7/28/03 ------ ------- --------------- WASATCH MICRO CAP VALUE FUND 19.87% N/A 21.98% Russell 2000 Index 17.95% N/A 18.39% PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE.

The Russell 2000 Index is widely regarded in the industry as accurately capturing the universe of small company stocks. YOU CANNOT INVEST IN THE INDEX. 17 SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND -- MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 (PHOTO OF JEFF CARDON, CFA) PORTFOLIO MANAGER REVIEW OF THE YEAR The Wasatch Small Cap Growth Fund returned 20.73% in the year ended September 30 and outperformed the Russell 2000 Index, which returned 17.95%. We are pleased but not ecstatic with this performance. Our focus has always been on investing in high quality companies--firms that we believe have high quality management teams that deliver superior growth. However, during the last few years the markets have not rewarded these types of companies. As you may recall, 2003 was a year in which low quality companies with little or no earnings dominated stock market returns. In 2004, the market was driven by energy and other commodity-oriented companies. We have typically avoided these types of companies because we believe their business models are untested or too dependent on volatile commodity prices. During the first three quarters of our fiscal year, our emphasis on quality began to get the recognition it deserved, as the markets moved away from commodity-related stocks and toward companies with high quality growth prospects--the kinds of companies the Fund invests in. During the final fiscal quarter ended September 30, however, performance relative to our benchmark suffered as two Gulf Coast hurricanes caused investors to return to the commodity-driven sectors. A chain reaction occurred from this development as investors worried about an indirect "energy tax" from higher gas prices and a consumer confidence breakdown from the trauma of these events. As a result, commodity-oriented stocks enjoyed returns of 25% or more, and consumer-oriented stock prices declined. The Fund has almost no exposure to commodity-oriented companies and considerable exposure to consumer-oriented companies--this was a hurricane force headwind to be sure. The end result was that the Fund entered the final quarter of our fiscal year with a 7.35% lead over the Index, but exited the period with outperformance of just 2.78% for the entire fiscal year. So, despite the fact that several sector weightings hurt performance, we were able to beat our benchmark. This implies that we achieved our outperformance through good stock picking. We derived more than 75% of our return from health care, consumer discretionary and technology investments, while the Index generated just under 35% of its return from these sectors, a statistic that supports our claim of good stock picking. Among our top contributors were some of our heaviest portfolio weights such as O'Reilly Automotive, Chico's, AmSurg, Techne, and Cognizant Technology Solutions. One consumer company that struggled was Cost Plus, an importer of household goods and furnishings. The Fund's foreign holdings also contributed to our 12-month return. CSR, an English company that designs and manufactures semiconductors for Bluetooth wireless applications, and Bijou Brigitte, a German retailer of low-cost jewelry, contributed to the Fund's performance. The biggest detractor among our foreign holdings was UTStarcom, a position we sold. We carefully track the earnings growth of our companies and each quarter calculate the weighted average earnings per share growth of the aggregate portfolio. During the last four quarters, earnings growth has been stellar, running consistently at or above 20%. In fact, we have been enjoying this kind of earnings growth for the last three years. While our overall earnings growth has been excellent, in a typical year a handful of companies will report disappointing earnings. Not unexpectedly, these companies are among our worst stock market performers. We often view stock price declines from earnings disappointments as opportunities to invest more capital at attractive valuations. Less often, negative news changes our opinion regarding the company's quality or the viability of its products or services in the marketplace. Odyssey HealthCare, Doral Financial, and Kintera, are examples of the latter. Odyssey, a hospice care provider, announced that growth could slow due to an investigation into its reimbursement claims. Doral, a mortgage finance company, suffered from lingering questions over its accounting practices and we were unable to gain confidence in the reported numbers. Kintera, a provider of software for non-profit organizations, was weak due to an inability to gain revenue traction. We sold our positions in all three companies. Finally, five portfolio companies were acquired during the year: Accredo Health, CTI Molecular Imaging, Capital Automotive, Verisity, and Nassda. These companies produced profits for the Fund, but the short-term performance boost from these acquisitions was bittersweet since we now have to find new high quality companies to replace them. OUTLOOK Wasatch defines quality companies as those that can deliver sustainable earnings, have capable management teams who can execute on their business plans, and can achieve higher-than-average returns on capital. We believe we have invested in vibrant companies with the potential to grow earnings faster than the overall economy. However, we are a bit more cautious about earnings growth as we look ahead to 2006. The kind of margin expansion we have enjoyed the past three years will be harder to achieve, and we have some concerns that rising commodity prices will slow demand for goods and services. Instead of earnings growth of 20% or more, we anticipate our portfolio companies to grow earnings in the mid-to-high teens. We believe this will be much better growth than that of the overall economy. On a more positive note, valuations are beginning to look more attractive, and we are quite enthused about the opportunity to invest in great companies at excellent prices. We are confident that the Fund has the potential to perform well if we can indeed capture the earnings growth we expect. If the market continues to move down, we feel even more confident in our ability to make investments that will perform well in future years. We appreciate the opportunity to manage your assets and are working hard to maintain your trust. 18 SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND -- PORTFOLIO SUMMARY SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS 1 YEAR 5 YEARS 10 YEARS ------ ------- -------- WASATCH SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND 20.73% 8.51% 13.25% Russell 2000 Index 17.95% 6.45% 9.37% PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE.

YOU CANNOT INVEST IN THE INDEX. 19 SMALL CAP VALUE FUND -- MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 (PHOTO OF JIM LARKINS, MBA) PORTFOLIO MANAGER (PHOTO OF JOHN MAZANEC, MBA) PORTFOLIO MANAGER REVIEW OF THE YEAR The Wasatch Small Cap Value Fund gained 19.47% in the 12 months ended September 30. Over the same period, the Russell 2000 Value Index, gained 17.75%. Over the course of the year, the Fund's performance was broad-based across the sectors in which we were invested. Many of the companies held by the Fund were led by experienced management teams and made significant headway toward achieving their business goals supported by favorable economic and business conditions. Assessing a company's management team is an important part of our investment strategy. The management team is vital to a company's success in improving earnings growth, turning around business results, or making investors recognize intrinsic value. Looking back over the past 12 months, we noted that our faith in the management teams of many of our long-term holdings was rewarded as stock prices rose to more fully reflect the value we saw in these companies. The Fund's outperformance of the Index was driven by strong results from the consumer discretionary, producer durables, autos and transportation, and health care sectors. Notable sectors where we underperformed the Index were in financial services, where we were overweighted, and utilities, where we were significantly underweighted. The consumer discretionary sector contributed the most to the Fund's performance. One of the best performers was Administaff, a provider of human resource services to small and medium-sized businesses. Administaff's value appreciated as management continued to make good progress toward turning around its business results. Other solid performers included Lithia Motors, World Fuel Services, and Global Imaging Systems. The Fund's biggest detractor in this sector was Whitehall Jewellers, a mall-based jewelry retailer that faced intense price competition from traditional and Internet jewelers. We sold Whitehall, as we believe it will have a difficult time meeting its short-term financing needs. Our investments in homebuilding companies did well this year. We sold some of our homebuilders as we felt their stocks had become fully valued. We also trimmed positions in other homebuilders to reflect our assessment of the risk that housing demand and prices would contract. Trucking and auto replacement parts companies drove the performance of the Fund's autos and transportation sector. USA Truck was a top performer due to what we felt was solid execution by management that resulted in increased earnings. Auto replacement parts manufacturers, Aftermarket Technology and Keystone Automotive Industries, also added value to the Fund as they continued to grow their businesses. We sold Sea Containers and National R.V. Holdings when they failed to meet our expectations. Our best performers in the health care sector were PacifiCare Health Systems and Capital Senior Living. Although we continue to look for investments in this sector, the Fund is likely to remain underweight versus the Index as many health care companies seem to be richly valued. The Fund's gain in technology was driven by Supertex, a semiconductor component manufacturer, and Multi-Fineline Electronix, a maker of flexible circuit boards. Both companies posted good results and benefited from a favorable business environment. The laggard for us in this sector was Sipex. We were disappointed by a change in the company's management and we sold our position. Energy stocks were among the best performing issues in the Index. This was the result of record high energy prices due to growing global consumption and limited oil and gas reserves. Throughout the year, we sought to increase the Fund's exposure to this strong performing sector by prudently investing in companies that we believed were attractively valued. While the Fund held fewer energy companies than the Index, our energy stocks were up more. Noteworthy performers were Toreador Resources, Plains Exploration & Production, and Ultra Petroleum. Our disappointment in Harvest Natural Resources led us to sell our position. Despite strong performance from materials and processing stocks, our underweighting meant this sector contributed less to our return than to the Index's. Nonetheless, Mobile Mini, a company that refurbishes shipping containers and leases them as storage units, continued to improve its business results and was a top contributor. The Fund's gain in financial services, our most heavily weighted sector, fell short of that of the Index. The shortfall was primarily concentrated in four holdings--Commercial Capital Bancorp, Direct General, Doral Financial and Saxon Capital. We remain optimistic about the long-term prospects of three of these companies. However, we sold Doral Financial, a Puerto Rican bank, as we were uncomfortable with the company's accounting methods. Weak results from some companies camouflaged our more successful investments in auto finance, commercial mortgage backed securities companies, and business development companies. OUTLOOK While stock prices generally rose over the past 12 months, investors became increasingly concerned over the health of the economy. Higher energy prices, rising interest rates and flagging consumer confidence began taking a toll on the economic recovery. As a result, stock prices have become more volatile providing us with more interesting opportunities for value investing, particularly in retail, financial services, producer durables and transportation companies. We will continue to pursue our discipline of investing in small companies that we believe are undervalued but have characteristics that will allow them to improve earnings growth, increase profit margins and attract positive attention from investors. We believe our efforts have the potential to help you achieve your long-term investment goals.

Over the same period, the Fund outperformed the Russell 2000, Growth Index, which gained 17.97%. The Fund's performance was nearly identical to that of the Russell 2500 Growth Index, which gained 21.01%. Both the Fund's absolute performance and its outperformance of the Russell 2000 Growth Index (the "Index") were driven by substantial contributions from health care and technology, our most heavily weighted sectors. We are pleased with our outperformance, especially in light of the strong performance contributed to the Index by three commodity-oriented sectors--energy, integrated oils and materials and processing. The Fund was not invested in the energy or integrated oils sectors and it had few holdings in the materials and processing sector. We are likely to remain underinvested in these three sectors because we feel that the business results of companies in these areas are too dependent on commodity prices. They also lack the characteristics that are desirable to us such as a competitive advantage and the potential for sustainable growth. Historically, the Fund has been heavily weighted in health care and technology. Our weighting in these sectors is a by-product of the bottom-up, fundamental analysis we utilize to identify individual companies that we believe have superior business models and growth opportunities. The Fund's top contributor in health care was Accredo Health, whose acquisition by Medco Health Solutions was completed in August. Medco's market capitalization is larger than we typically like to hold in the Fund and we sold our small, residual position. One of the Fund's largest positions, United Surgical Partners, an operator of short-stay surgery centers, also added meaningfully to performance as the company continued to report strong earnings growth. Odyssey HealthCare, a position we sold earlier in the year, was the biggest detractor in health care followed by AMERIGROUP and EPIX Pharmaceuticals, a manufacturer of imaging contrast agents. AMERIGROUP, a provider of health care services to Medicaid recipients, announced that results would be well below expectations due to higher-than-expected medical costs. The stock price of EPIX declined on concerns that the FDA might require another clinical trial on a product that had already completed this process. Many of the Fund's technology investments were in semiconductor companies that performed well throughout most of the year. National Semiconductor and O2Micro International led the way as both companies reported strong earnings growth and were supported by a favorable business environment. In contrast, disappointing results caused us to sell our positions in UTStarcom and Cherokee International. Two business services companies--The Advisory Board and Corporate Executive Board--benefited from growing demand for the specialized consulting services they provide and propelled the Fund's consumer discretionary sector to a solid return. Automotive parts retailer O'Reilly Automotive also added to the Fund's return. The results of these companies were offset by weakness among a few retail holdings that struggled as their customers began to be impacted by higher energy costs. Cost Plus, an importer of household goods and furnishings suffered slowing sales that caused it to be the main detractor from the Fund's performance in this sector. Nextel Partners, one of two holdings in the Fund's utilities sector, produced strong results throughout the year and made a nice contribution to performance. Recently, the company entered into discussions to exercise its right to sell to Sprint Nextel. We think this could be a significant business distraction and chose to sell our position and redeploy our profit from Nextel Partners in other investment ideas. The level of merger and acquisition activity in the Fund was unusually high throughout the year. While the Fund has often benefited from a short-term rise in the stock prices of these acquisition targets, we have not been pleased to see several of our best long-term ideas such as Accredo, Verisity and Nassda leave the portfolio due to acquisitions. The Fund's financial services and producer durables sectors produced weak results relative to the Index. In producer durables this was primarily due to being substantially underweighted. In financial services, the bulk of the underperformance was in Doral Financial and Direct General. Both companies fell short of our expectations and were sold. Partially offsetting these disappointing results were strong contributions from HDFC Bank, a consumer bank in India, and AmeriCredit, a subprime auto lender. OUTLOOK We expect the business environment for companies held by the Fund to remain reasonably strong for the remainder of the year despite lingering concerns over continuing interest rate hikes and the impact of high energy prices. In general, company valuations in the Fund felt a little high but not irrational as of September 30. We continue to buy, sell or adjust position sizes based on valuation, our ongoing research and the confidence we have in individual companies' ability to achieve high growth rates. Our strategy is to invest in fast growing companies in dynamic industries. Rising energy and commodity prices may drive up stock prices in the energy, integrated oils and materials and processing sectors. Regardless, our efforts are focused on investing in companies whose growth does not rely upon volatile and difficult-to-predict commodity prices. We prefer companies with clear competitive advantages that can exert some control over their growth by introducing new products or services, or entering new markets. We expect to remain heavily weighted in technology and health care where we continue to find companies that we believe have the potential to help you achieve your long-term investment objectives.

HOISINGTON) PORTFOLIO MANAGER REVIEW OF THE YEAR The Fund's return of 11.41% in the 12 months ended September 30 was much greater than the 2.80% of the Lehman Brother's Aggregate Bond Index. On September 30, 2005, the long Treasury bond due in 2031 yielded 4.57%, down from 4.89% a year earlier. As the bond yields declined throughout the year, the market value of the Fund's portfolio rose. The Fund's holdings consisted of long-dated U.S. Treasury securities (bonds with maturities longer than 20 years) and zero coupon U.S. Treasury securities (Strips).* The zero coupon securities held in the Fund registered the largest price appreciation. In spite of a 2% jump in the Federal funds rate, bond yields dropped in the last four quarters, as real gross domestic demand (GDD)--which is gross domestic product (GDP) less net exports of goods and services--slowed to a 3.5% increase, down sharply from the 5.1% peak reached at the end of the second quarter of 2004. During the year, the price of crude oil and natural gas increased, pushing up the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to 4.7%, from 3.4% in 2004. Yet, the more stable gauges of inflation have been relatively even in 2005. The core CPI decelerated to 2%, down from 2.2% in 2004. In the 12 months ended in August, the core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Deflator** rose 2%, versus 2.2% in 2004, while the market-based core PCE inflation measure at 1.7% was identical to that registered in 2004. OUTLOOK Four considerations point to a more subdued economic climate. First, leading indicators portend a loss of momentum. In the 12 months ended in August (a time frame virtually unaffected by the two Gulf Coast hurricanes), the Leading Economic Index+ was up just 1.9%, compared to the 10% growth logged in March 2004. Second, substantial monetary discipline was in place even before the latest round of Fed interest rate increases. In the past 12 months, M2++ grew just 3.9%, contrasted with the 4.5% expansion in 2004--a nine-year low. Third, erosion in housing sector fundamentals, tighter credit standards and inflated home prices point to a slowdown in housing--the primary motivator of the economy over the past three years. A housing slowdown would have far ranging consequences since rapidly appreciating prices have permitted consumers to extract equity from their homes for current expenditures. The Fed has calculated "a fourth to a third" of the withdrawal of equity from homes has financed consumer spending. The practice of taking equity out of the family home goes a long way toward explaining why the personal saving rate in the U.S. is now negative. Fourth, escalating energy bills will absorb more of the consumer's budget, limiting funds for discretionary uses. In August, total consumer fuel expenditures were 9.1% of total wage and salary income, a level not seen in 19 years. Of concern for the bond market is the budget deficit, which could hit $450 billion in fiscal 2006 in nominal terms, versus $317 billion in 2005. The shortfall might amount to 3.1% of GDP. In the final analysis, the manner of financing determines the impact of excess government spending. Budget imbalances can be funded by either an increase in the money supply or by existing money balances. During the Vietnam War and the Nixon and Carter presidencies, the deficits were large in nominal dollars by the standards of that time, but small relative to GDP. They became inflationary when Fed policies allowed them to be underwritten by a sharp increase in the money supply. If Fed policy dictates that the 2006 deficit be financed from existing money balances, short-term rates will climb higher since the bulk of the Treasury financing will fall on that portion of the curve. Yield spreads between short- and long-term bonds would continue to level out, and likely invert. Raised short term borrowing costs, combined with such yield curve changes, would transfer spending from the private sector to the public sector. The enlarged budget deficit would do little to invigorate activity or escalate inflation. In summary, we believe economic growth will slow over the next year as the boost from hurricane reconstruction expenditures is offset by monetary constriction, burdensome energy prices, softer housing and sliding consumer income and balance sheet fundamentals. Aided by global circumstances, the Fed has done an effective job of containing rising energy prices. We believe the more subdued economic climate likely in 2006, plus continued Fed resolve, indicate that core inflation will move lower over the next year. With long term Treasury bond yields generally determined by multi year patterns in inflation, Treasury bond yields should also continue to move lower. This could prove favorable for the long-term U.S. Treasury bonds held by the Fund. Thank you for investing in the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund. * Zero coupon Treasury bonds, also known as U.S. Treasury Strips, are debt obligations that do not entitle the holder to periodic interest payments prior to maturity and are traded at a discount from their face amounts. The discount of U.S. Treasury Strips varies primarily depending on the time remaining until maturity and prevailing levels of interest rates. Strips can be sold prior to their due date in the secondary market at the then-prevailing market value. The market prices of Strips are generally more volatile than the market prices of securities of comparable quality and similar maturity that pay interest periodically. Strips may respond to a greater degree to fluctuations in interest rates than non-zero coupon securities. ** Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Deflator is part of the National Income and Products Accounts developed by the Bureau of Economic Analysis of the U.S. Commerce Department. The PCE Deflator is a variable weighted index and is widely considered to be the most reliable of all the price indexes. + Leading Economic Index was developed by the Conference Board and is comprised of 10 components that lead changes in overall economic activity. ++ M2 money supply consists of currency and checking accounts, consumer-type time and savings accounts and equivalent near monies, while M3 money supply consists of M2 plus business-type time deposits and less liquid near monies. Both M2 and M3 exclude monies and near monies owned by the Treasury, depository institutions and foreign banks and official institutions and IRA and Keogh balances owned by consumers. 24 U.S. TREASURY FUND -- PORTFOLIO SUMMARY SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS 1 YEAR 5 YEARS 10 YEARS ------ ------- -------- WASATCH-HOISINGTON U.S. TREASURY FUND 11.41% 9.52% 8.55% Lehman Bros.

This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Wasatch Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six month period ended September 30, 2005. ACTUAL EXPENSES The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses, based upon the actual total return of the fund during the most recent six month period ended September 30. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. In addition, the Funds charge a $15.00 IRA distribution fee, a $12.50 IRA annual maintenance fee and a $10.00 fee for redemptions paid by wire. To the extent these fees apply to your account, your expenses paid during the period would be higher and your ending account value would be lower than the amounts shown in the table below. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund's actual return. 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 Wasatch Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. In addition, the Funds charge a $15.00 IRA distribution fee, a $12.50 IRA annual maintenance fee and a $10.00 fee for redemptions paid by wire. To the extent these fees apply to your account, your expenses paid during the period would be higher and your ending account value would be lower than the amounts shown in the table below. If another fund's fees differ from those listed above, your expenses paid and your ending account value could be higher or lower than those of other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

ORGANIZATION Wasatch Funds, Inc. is a Minnesota corporation registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company and consists of 11 series or "funds" (each a "Fund" and collectively the "Funds"). The Core Growth, Global Science & Technology, Heritage Growth, International Growth, International Opportunities, Micro Cap, Micro Cap Value, Small Cap Growth, Small Cap Value and Ultra Growth Funds (collectively the "Equity Funds") are non-diversified funds and the Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund ("U.S. Treasury Fund") is a diversified fund. Each Fund maintains its own investment objective. The Funds have entered into an investment advisory agreement with Wasatch Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor") as investment advisor. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The following is a summary of significant policies related to investments of the Funds held at September 30, 2005. VALUATION OF SECURITIES -- Securities are valued as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued using a commercial pricing service at the latest quoted sales price or official closing price taken from the primary market in which each security trades. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which there were no transactions are valued at the closing bid price. Debt securities (other than short-term instruments) are valued at current market value by a commercial pricing service, or by using the last sale or bid price. Short-term securities, which mature in 60 days or less, are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Restricted securities, private placements, other illiquid securities and other securities for which market value quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by a designated Pricing Committee, comprised of personnel of the Advisor, with the oversight of the Board of Directors, in accordance with pricing procedures approved by the Board of Directors. Fair value is defined as the amount the owner of a security might reasonably expect to receive upon a current sale. For each applicable investment that is fair valued, the Pricing Committee considers, to the extent applicable, various factors including, but not limited to, the financial condition of the company or limited partnership, operating results, prices paid in follow-on rounds, comparable companies in the public market, the nature and duration of the restrictions for holding the securities, and other relevant factors. Additionally, a Fund's investments will be valued at fair value by the Pricing Committee if the Advisor determines that an event impacting the value of an investment occurred between the closing time of a security's primary market or exchange (for example, a foreign exchange or market) and the time the Fund's share price is calculated. Significant events include, but are not limited to the following: significant fluctuations in domestic markets, foreign markets or foreign currencies; occurrences not directly tied to the securities markets such as natural disasters, armed conflicts or significant governmental actions; and major announcements affecting a single issuer or an entire market or market sector. In responding to a significant event, the Pricing Committee would determine the fair value of affected securities considering factors including, but not limited to: index options and futures traded subsequent to the close; ADRs, GDRs or other related receipts; currency spot or forward markets that trade after pricing of the foreign exchange; other derivative securities traded after the close such as SPDRs and other exchange traded funds (ETFs); and alternative market quotes on the affected securities. In addition, the Funds may use a systematic fair valuation model provided by an independent third party in certain circumstances to assist in adjusting the valuation of foreign securities. As of September 30, 2005, the aggregate amount of fair valued securities as a percentage of net assets for the Funds was as follows: Core Growth Fund 0.18% Global Science & Technology Fund 0.79% Heritage Growth Fund 0.53% International Growth Fund 1.46% International Opportunities Fund 1.17% Micro Cap Fund 0.56% Micro Cap Value Fund 2.96% Small Cap Growth Fund 1.46% Small Cap Value Fund 5.21% Ultra Growth Fund 3.48% U.S. Treasury Fund -- FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- Values of investments denominated in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of investments and dividend income are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rate prevailing on the transaction date. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on realized and unrealized security gains or losses is reflected as a component of such gains or losses. Transactions in foreign denominated assets may involve greater risks than domestic transactions, including currency, political, economic, regulatory and market risks. The Funds do not hold foreign currency balances routinely. Foreign currencies may be held to the extent related open security purchases failed to settle timely. At September 30, 2005, the foreign currencies held by the Funds were as follows (amounts in U.S. dollars): COST MARKET VALUE --------- ------------ GLOBAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY FUND Swiss Franc $(347,187) $(346,919) INTERNATIONAL GROWTH FUND Hong Kong Dollar $ 18,777 $ 18,782 Taiwan Dollar 52,532 52,581 Swedish Krona 118,519 119,131 --------- --------- $ 189,828 $ 190,494 ========= ========= (Continued next page.) 73 WASATCH FUNDS -- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) COST MARKET VALUE ---------- ------------ INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND Australian Dollar $ 1,221 $ 1,225 Canadian Dollar 287,184 302,900 Euro 1,260,544 1,155,479 Hong Kong Dollar 400 400 Japanese Yen 537,126 526,853 Taiwan Dollar 3,566 3,512 ---------- ---------- $2,090,041 $1,990,369 ========== ========== MICRO CAP VALUE FUND Euro $ (290,926) $ (291,834) INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Gains or losses on securities sold are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain dividends from foreign securities may be recorded after the ex-dividend date based on when the Fund is informed of the dividend. Interest income and estimated expenses are accrued daily. Bond discount and premium are amortized using the interest method. To the extent dividends received from Real Estate Investment Trust securities include return of capital distributions, such distributions are recorded as income, and adjusted accordingly for tax purposes. SHORT SALES -- To a limited extent, the Equity Funds may enter into short sales whereby a fund sells a security it generally does not own (the security is borrowed), in anticipation of a decline in the security's price. The initial amount of a short sale is recorded as a liability which is marked to market daily. Fluctuations in the value of the short liability are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. If a fund shorts a security when also holding a long position in the security (a "short against the box"), as the security price declines, the short position increases in value, offsetting the long position's decrease in value. The opposite effect occurs if the security price rises. A fund realizes a gain or loss upon closing of the short sale (returning the security to the counterparty by way of purchase or delivery of a long position owned). The Funds are liable to the buyer for any dividends payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. These dividends are an expense of the Funds. The Funds designate collateral consisting of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid assets sufficient to collateralize the market value of short positions. OPTIONS TRANSACTIONS -- The Equity Funds may buy and sell put and call options, write covered put and call options, including over-the-counter options, on portfolio securities where the completion of the obligation is dependent upon the credit standing of another party. The risk in writing a call option is that a Fund gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases. The risk in writing a put option is that a Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that a Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. A Fund also has the additional risk of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded. A Fund will realize a gain or loss upon expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written put option, or the cost of a security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The Funds may engage in repurchase transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a fund takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase and the fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The market value of the collateral must be equal at all times to the total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the fund has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is the Funds' policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all taxable income to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or excise taxes has been made. EXPENSES -- The Funds contract for various services mostly on a collective basis. Most expenses are directly attributable to each Fund and therefore are charged accordingly. Expenses that are not directly attributable to one or more Funds are allocated among applicable Funds on an equitable and consistent basis considering such things as the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of the Funds. USE OF MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported changes in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS -- In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. Based on experience, however, the risk of loss is expected to be remote. REDEMPTION FEES -- The Funds deduct a fee of 2.00% from redemption proceeds on shares of the Funds held two months or less. Redemption fees retained by the Funds are credited to additional paid-in capital. 74 SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 3. DISTRIBUTIONS Dividends from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. The Funds may utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as part of the dividend-paid deduction (tax equalization). To the extent these book and tax differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified at the end of the fiscal year among paid-in capital in excess of par value, undistributed net investment income (loss) and undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments. The Small Cap Growth Fund paid a shareholder redemption substantially in-kind as of April 14, 2005, at which date the market value of the securities provided was $35,770,577 resulting in a realized gain of $10,774,189 for financial reporting purposes. For federal income tax purposes, the Fund has not recognized a realized gain on the disposition of the securities.

These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit 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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at September 30, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. The financial highlights of the Funds as of September 30, 2001 and for the period then ended were audited by other independent accountants whose report dated October 17, 2001 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

The annual report is for the Funds' fiscal year which ends September 30. The semi-annual report is for the six months or period ending March 31. These reports provide shareholders with important information that will help them evaluate the management and performance of their investments. It is the desire of Wasatch Funds to help shareholders stay in tune with their investments. If you have any questions about the information in this report, a shareholder services representative will be happy to assist you when you call 800.551.1700. SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS The holdings of each Wasatch Fund are detailed in the "Schedule of Investments." This section provides a snapshot of the securities each Fund was invested in on the last day of the reporting period. The Wasatch Equity Funds invest primarily in COMMON STOCKS of companies which are grouped together by industry. The Wasatch-Hoisington U.S. Treasury Fund invests primarily in U.S. Treasury securities. The Equity Funds will typically have only minor holdings in Short-Term Investments. At times the Funds may take temporary defensive positions by increasing cash or holdings in SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS. Please see the prospectus under "Other Investment Strategies and Their Risks." STATEMENTS OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES These financial statements show the ASSETS AND LIABILITIES of a Fund on the last day of the reporting period. A Fund's ASSETS include the value of securities owned, amounts receivable for purchases of Fund shares (capital shares receivable), securities sold, interest and dividends, prepaid expenses and other assets. LIABILITIES are amounts owed for shareholder redemptions (capital shares payable), securities purchased, investment advisory fees and other expenses. Totaling up the assets and subtracting the liabilities results in a Fund's NET ASSETS. NET ASSETS consist of capital stock, paid-in capital in excess of par, undistributed net investment income or loss, undistributed net realized gain or loss on investments and net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments. CAPITAL STOCK is stock authorized by a company's charter and having par value, stated value or no par value. Par value is set by the company issuing the shares and has no relation to Net Asset Value. The par value of one share of each Wasatch Fund is $.01. PAID-IN CAPITAL IN EXCESS OF PAR is capital received from shareholders in exchange for Fund shares that exceeds the par value of the shares. For example, if you bought one share of a Fund for $10, $.01 would show as "Capital stock" on the books of the Fund, and $9.99 would be accounted for under "Paid-in capital in excess of par." UNDISTRIBUTED NET INVESTMENT INCOME OR LOSS is the amount of net investment income or loss of a Fund since inception that has not been paid to shareholders as a dividend. UNDISTRIBUTED NET REALIZED GAIN (LOSS) ON INVESTMENTS is the amount of net realized gains or losses generated by a Fund since inception that have not been distributed to shareholders in the form of a capital gain distribution. A gain or loss is realized when a security is sold by a Fund. NET UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) ON INVESTMENTS is the change in value from the purchase price of securities a Fund continues to hold. The number of shares a Fund is authorized to sell can be found under CAPITAL STOCK, $.01 par value. ISSUED AND OUTSTANDING indicates the number of shares owned by shareholders. NET ASSET VALUE (NAV), REDEMPTION PRICE AND OFFERING PRICE PER SHARE shows the value of one outstanding share of a Fund on the date of the report. A Fund's share price (NAV) is calculated by dividing the value of all securities and other assets owned by a Fund, less the liabilities charged to that Fund, by the number of Fund shares outstanding. The share price is calculated at the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange on each day the Exchange is open for trading. Please see Wasatch Funds' prospectus for more information about how share prices are calculated. Information about how the share price is affected by a Fund's operation can be found under "Financial Highlights" on page 87. STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS show investment income and expenses for each Fund as well as realized gains or losses from securities sold and the appreciation or depreciation in the value of a Fund's holdings during the reporting period. INVESTMENT INCOME shows INTEREST and DIVIDENDS earned from interest-bearing and dividend-paying securities in a Fund's portfolio. EXPENSES show the various fees and expenses paid out of a Fund's assets such as the fee paid to Wasatch Advisors, the Funds' investment advisor. Additional fees include shareholder servicing, fund administration and accounting, custody of fund assets, federal and state registration, legal counsel, auditing and directors' fees. The Funds pay for printing and mailing statements, prospectuses, annual reports and semi-annual reports to shareholders. NET INVESTMENT INCOME (LOSS) is the amount of dividends and interest income earned on securities held by a Fund, less the Fund's expenses. NET REALIZED GAIN (LOSS) ON INVESTMENTS AND FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS is the net gain or loss on securities a Fund has sold. CHANGE IN UNREALIZED APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) ON INVESTMENTS AND FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS is the change in value of securities a Fund continues to hold. NET GAIN (LOSS) ON INVESTMENTS is the result of changes in market value of securities a Fund has sold and securities it continues to hold. STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN NET ASSETS NET ASSETS are a Fund's remaining assets after taking into consideration any liabilities. STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN NET ASSETS show the increase or decrease in a Fund's net assets during the reporting period. Investment operations, dividends and capital share transactions affect a Fund's net assets. OPERATIONS is a summary of the STATEMENTS OF 86 SEPTEMBER 30, 2005 OPERATIONS. It includes investment income or loss, net realized gain or loss on investments and foreign currency translations a Fund has sold as well as the change in appreciation or depreciation in the value of investments a Fund continues to hold. DIVIDENDS are distributed by Wasatch Funds to shareholders when Fund investments have earned income in excess of net expenses or when capital gains in excess of capital losses are realized from the sale of securities. Most shareholders choose to reinvest their dividends and capital gain distributions. Each Fund is required by Internal Revenue Code regulations to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and capital gains to shareholders in order to retain its status as a "regulated investment company." CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS are any transactions involving shares of a Fund, including the selling of Fund shares, shares issued by a Fund to shareholders for the reinvestment of dividends, and share redemptions. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS The FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS contain important historical operating information that you may find useful in making decisions or understanding the performance of your investment. NET ASSET VALUE (NAV) is defined under "Statements of Assets and Liabilities" on page 86. The difference between the Net asset value, beginning of period and the Net asset value, end of period in the Financial Highlights is the change in value of a Fund's shares over the reporting period, but not its total return. INCOME (LOSS) FROM INVESTMENT OPERATIONS shows how the share price was affected by a Fund's operations on a per share basis. NET INVESTMENT INCOME (LOSS) is the per share amount of dividends and interest income earned on securities held by a Fund, less the Fund's expenses. NET REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS (LOSSES) ON SECURITIES is the per share increase or decrease in the value of securities a Fund holds or has sold during the reporting period. Gains or (losses) are realized when securities are sold. Gains or (losses) are unrealized when securities increase or decrease in value but are not sold. DISTRIBUTIONS are the per share amount that a Fund paid to shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains. TOTAL RETURN is the percentage increase or decrease in the value of an investment over a stated period of time. A total return percentage includes both changes in unrealized and realized gains and income. For the purposes of calculating total return, it is assumed that dividends and distributions are reinvested at the share price on the ex-dividend day of the distribution. A FUND'S TOTAL RETURN CANNOT BE COMPUTED DIRECTLY FROM THE FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS. SUPPLEMENTAL DATA AND RATIOS are provided to help you better understand your investment. NET ASSETS, END OF PERIOD, are the net assets of a Fund on the reporting date. RATIO TO AVERAGE NET ASSETS OF: EXPENSES shows the total of a Fund's operating expenses divided by its average net assets for the stated period before and after waivers and reimbursements by the Advisor, if any. RATIO TO AVERAGE NET ASSETS OF: NET INVESTMENT INCOME shows a Fund's net investment income (loss) divided by its average net assets for the stated period before and after waivers and reimbursements by the Advisor, if any. PORTFOLIO TURNOVER RATE measures a Fund's buying and selling activity during the reporting period. It is computed by dividing total purchases or sales, whichever is less, by the average monthly market value of a Fund's portfolio securities. This calculation does not include securities with a maturity date of less than 12 months.

WASATCH FUNDS, INC. By: /s/ Samuel S. Stewart, Jr. --------------------------------- Samuel S. Stewart, Jr. President (principal executive officer) of Wasatch Funds, Inc. Date: November 29, 2005 Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Company Act of 1940, this report has been signed below by the following persons on behalf of the registrant and in the capacities and on the dates indicated. By: /s/ Samuel S. Stewart, Jr. --------------------------------- Samuel S. Stewart, Jr. President (principal executive officer) of Wasatch Funds, Inc. Date: November 29, 2005 By: /s/ Venice F. Edwards --------------------------------- Venice F. Edwards Vice President/Treasurer (principal financial and accounting officer) of Wasatch Funds, Inc. Date: November 29, 2005 EXHIBIT 12(A)(1) WASATCH FUNDS, INC. CODE OF ETHICS FOR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE AND SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS I. COVERED OFFICERS/PURPOSE OF THE CODE This Code of Ethics (the "Code") shall apply to Wasatch Funds, Inc.'s (the "Company") Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (the "Covered Officers," each of whom is named in Exhibit A attached hereto), consistent with and in furtherance of their fiduciary duties, and for the purpose of promoting: - honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; - full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in other public communications made by the Company; - compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations; - the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and - accountability for adherence to the Code. Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as apparent conflicts of interest. II. COVERED OFFICERS SHOULD HANDLE ETHICALLY ACTUAL AND APPARENT CONFLICTS OF INTEREST OVERVIEW. A "conflict of interest" occurs when a Covered Officer's private interest has the potential to interfere with the interests of, or his or her service to, the Company. For example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer, or a member of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position with the Company. Covered Officers must avoid conduct that conflicts, or appears to conflict, with their duties to the Company. All Covered Officers should conduct themselves such that any reasonable observer would have no grounds for belief that a conflict of interest has not been appropriately addressed and resolved. Covered Officers are not permitted to self-deal or otherwise to use their positions with the Company to further their own or any other related person's business opportunities. This Code does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace the programs and procedures or codes of ethics of the Company's investment advisor. Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts may arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship between the Company and its investment advisor and administrator of which the Covered Officers may be officers or employees. As a result, this Code recognizes that the Covered Officers will, in the normal course of their duties (whether formally for the Company, the investment advisor or the administrator), be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that will have different effects on the service providers and the Company. The participation of the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationship between the Company and its service providers and is consistent with the performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the Company. Thus, if performed in conformity with the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("Investment Company Act") and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, such activities will be deemed to have been handled ethically. The following list provides examples of conflicts of interest under the Code, but Covered Officers should keep in mind that these examples are not exhaustive. The overarching principle is that the personal interest of a Covered Officer should be properly disclosed to the Company and resolved by persons who do not have a personal interest. * * * * Each Covered Officer must not: - use his or her personal influence or personal relationship improperly to influence investment decisions or financial reporting by the Company whereby the Covered Officer would benefit personally; - cause the Company to take action, or fail to take action, for the improper personal benefit of the Covered Officer; or - retaliate against any other Covered Officer or any employee of the Company or its affiliated persons for reports that are made in good faith of actual or of potential violations by the Company or such affiliated persons of applicable rules and regulations. Each Covered Officer must discuss certain material conflict of interest situations with the Company's Audit Committee. Examples of such situations include: - service as a director on the Board of a publicly traded company held by a Wasatch Fund; - accepting directly or indirectly investment opportunities, gifts or other gratuities from individuals conducting or seeking to conduct business with the Company or the Company's investment advisor. However, Covered Officers may accept gifts from a single giver in aggregate amounts not exceeding $100, and may attend business meals, sporting events and other entertainment events at the expense of a giver as long as the expense is reasonable and both the giver(s) and the Covered Officer(s) are present; - any direct or indirect ownership interest in, financial relationships with, or any consulting or employment relationship with, any of the Company's service providers; and - a direct or indirect financial interest in commissions, transaction charges or spreads paid by the Company for effecting portfolio transactions or for selling or redeeming shares. III. DISCLOSURE AND COMPLIANCE - Each Covered Officer should familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Company. - Each Covered Officer should not knowingly or negligently misrepresent, or cause others to misrepresent, facts about the Company to others, whether within or outside the Company, including to the Company's Board, Audit Committee and independent auditors, and to governmental regulators, self-regulators and self-regulatory organizations. - Each Covered Officer should, to the extent appropriate within his or her area of responsibility, consult with other officers and employees of the Company and its service providers with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents that the Company files with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Company. - It is the responsibility of each Covered Officer to promote and encourage professional integrity in all aspects of the Company's operations. IV. REPORTING AND ACCOUNTABILITY Each Covered Officer must: - upon adoption of this Code (or thereafter as applicable, upon becoming a Covered Officer), sign and return a report in the form of Exhibit B to the person named in Exhibit A affirming that he or she has received, read and understands the Code; - annually sign and return a report in the form of Exhibit C to the person named in Exhibit A affirming that he or she has complied with the requirements of the Code; and - notify the Company's Audit Committee promptly if he or she knows of any violation of this Code. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code. The Company's Audit Committee is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation including any approvals or waivers sought by the Covered Officers. The Audit Committee will follow these procedures in investigating and enforcing this Code: - The Audit Committee will take all appropriate actions to investigate any potential violations reported to the Committee. - If, after such investigation, the Audit Committee believes that no violation has occurred, the Audit Committee is not required to take any further action. - Any matter that the Audit Committee believes is a violation of this Code will be reported to the full Board. - If the Board concurs that a violation has occurred, it will consider appropriate action, which may include review of, and appropriate modifications to, applicable policies and procedures; notification to the appropriate personnel of the investment advisor, administrator or its board; and possible dismissal of the Covered Officer as an officer of the Company. - The Audit Committee will be responsible for granting waivers of provisions of this Code, as appropriate. - Any changes to or waivers of this Code will, to the extent required, be disclosed as provided by SEC rules. V. OTHER POLICIES AND PROCEDURES This Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by the Company for purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. Insofar as other policies or procedures of the Company or the Company's investment advisor govern or purport to govern the behavior or activities of the Covered Officers who are subject to this Code, they are superseded by this Code to the extent that they overlap or conflict with the provisions of this Code. The Company's and the investment advisor's code of ethics under Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act and the investment advisor's other policies and procedures are separate requirements applying to the Covered Officers and others, and are not part of this Code. VI. AMENDMENTS Any amendments to this Code, other than amendments to Exhibit A, must be approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Board, including a majority of independent directors. VII. CONFIDENTIALITY All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly. Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the Company's Board or Audit Committee. VIII. INTERNAL USE The Code is intended solely for internal use by the Company and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of Company, as to any fact, circumstance or legal conclusion.
