American Beacon Funds June 30, 2006
FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS:
Enclosed please find the Semi-Annual Report for the American Beacon Money Market
Funds for the six months ended June 30, 2006. During this time, the Funds
outperformed their respective peer groups.
The Federal Reserve (the "Fed") raised overnight rates four times during
the period, resulting in a Fed Funds target rate of 5.25% as of June 30, 2006.
In its June statement, the Fed acknowledged that economic growth is moderating
but remained concerned that "the high levels of resource utilization and the
prices of energy and other commodities have the potential to sustain inflation
pressures."
Despite rising interest rates, the Cash Management Class of the American
Beacon Funds produced strong relative returns for the period. The Money Market
Fund-Cash Management Class returned 2.32% for the six months, outperforming the
Lipper Institutional Money Market Average return of 2.14%. The U.S. Government
Money Market Fund -- Cash Management Class outpaced the Lipper Institutional
U.S. Government Money Market Average with a return of 2.28% versus 2.15% for the
Average. Both Funds surpassed their respective Lipper peer groups over all time
periods.
Please review the enclosed portfolio listings and detailed financial data.
As always, we welcome the opportunity to serve your financial needs. Should you
have any questions about the enclosed information, please do not hesitate to
contact us at 800-967-9009. You may also access Fund and account information at

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. economy expanded at an annual rate of 5.6% in the first quarter of 2006
thanks to strong consumer spending and business investment. However, soaring
gasoline prices and a slowdown in the housing market caused the second quarter
gross domestic product ("GDP") growth to slow to an estimated 2.5%. It also
appeared that the labor market was cooling as payroll gains came in below
consensus, rising 325,000 during the second quarter versus a revised 629,000 in
the first quarter. Despite the slowdown in payroll growth, the unemployment rate
continued to decline during the second quarter, coming in at a low 4.6% for the
month of June. In addition, June average hourly earnings climbed 3.9% from the
prior year, fueling concerns that the low unemployment rate was putting upward
pressure on inflation.
The Federal Reserve Board raised overnight rates by 25 percentage points at
each of the first four meetings in 2006, resulting in a Fed Funds target rate of
5.25% as of June 30, 2006. In its June statement, the Fed acknowledged that
economic growth was moderating but remained concerned that "the high levels of
resource utilization and the prices of energy and other commodities have the
potential to sustain inflation pressures." They did remove the phrase "some
further policy firming may yet be needed" and stated that the extent and timing
of any additional firming "will depend on the evolution of the outlook for both
inflation and economic growth." The Fed remains data dependent, leaving the door
open for either a pause or another rate hike at their next several meetings.
As expected, we began to see higher energy and commodity prices being
passed on to the consumer in the form of higher goods prices during the period.
The core Consumer Price Index ("CPI") rose more than forecast in June, up 0.3%
for the month and 2.6% year over year. This was the fourth consecutive month of
core inflation rising 0.3%, which according to Bloomberg, is the longest such
stretch since January to April 1995. Fed chairman Bernanke called the recent
increases in core prices "unwelcome developments" and said central bankers "will
be vigilant" to ensure inflation doesn't become entrenched. As a result, if core
inflation numbers continue to rise in the coming months, the Fed may likely
prolong its tightening cycle. At the end of the second quarter, the Fed Funds
futures market was indicating a chance of another 0.25% rate increase by the end
of the third quarter.
The yield curve shifted up as the Fed Funds rate rose during the second
quarter 2006. However, the curve continued to invert as yields on the 6-month
Treasury bill ended the quarter at 5.23% versus 5.15% for the 2-year note and
5.14% for the 10-year note.

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
AMERICAN BEACON MONEY MARKET FUND(SM)
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Money Market Fund maintained the strategy of purchasing 3-month
variable rate securities based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) in
addition to short-dated commercial paper during the period in response to the
rising interest rate environment.
With the Fed Funds futures market indicating a chance of another 25
percentage point rate increase by the end of the third quarter, the Money Market
Fund continued to keep its weighted-average maturity relatively short. However,
we will continue to monitor economic trends and adjust our weighted-average
maturity accordingly. In addition, we remain conservative on credit risk given
the tight credit spread environment.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the total return of the Cash
Management Class of the American Beacon Money Market Fund was 2.32%. The Fund
outperformed the Lipper Institutional Money Market Average return of 2.14% by 18
percentage points. Lipper Inc. ranked the Cash Management Class of the Fund 19th
among 324 and 14th among 280 Institutional Money Market Funds for the one-year
and three-year periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively(1). The Lipper
Institutional Money Market Average is calculated by taking an arithmetic average
of the returns of the mutual funds in the Lipper Institutional Money Market
Funds category. Lipper is an independent mutual fund research and ranking
service that ranks mutual funds in various categories by making comparative
calculations using total returns.

returns. Investment returns will vary, and shares may be worth more or
less at redemption than at original purchase. An investment in this Fund
is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to
preserve the value of an investment at $1.00 per share it is possible to
lose money by investing in the Fund. Fund performance in the table above
does not reflect the deduction of taxes a shareholder would pay on
distributions or the redemption of shares.
2 Fund performance for the five and ten-year period represents the total
returns achieved by the Institutional Class from 1/1/96 up to 12/1/01, the
inception date of the Cash Management Class, and the returns of the Cash
Management Class since its inception. Expenses of the Cash Management
Class are lower than those of the Institutional Class. Therefore, total
returns shown are lower than they would have been had the Cash Management
Class been in place since 1/1/96.

FUND EXPENSE EXAMPLE
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction
costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, administrative service
fees, and other Fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you
understand the ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare
these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning
of the period and held for the entire period from January 1, 2006 through June
30, 2006.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The "Actual" lines of the table provide information about actual account
values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together
with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the
period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600
account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number
in the "Actual" line under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate
the expenses you paid on your account during this period. Shareholders of the
PlanAhead Class that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to a
custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your
account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would
have been $12 higher.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The "Hypothetical" lines of the table provide information about
hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual
expense ratio and an assumed 5% per year rate of return before expenses (not the
Fund's actual return). You may compare the ongoing costs of investing in the
Fund with other funds by contrasting this 5% hypothetical example and the 5%
hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the
actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. Shareholders
of the PlanAhead Class that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to
a custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your
account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would
have been $12 higher.

You should also be aware that the expenses shown in the table highlight
only your ongoing costs and do not reflect any transaction costs charged by the
Fund. Similarly, the expense examples for other funds do not reflect any
transaction costs charged by those funds, such as sales charges (loads),
redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the "Hypothetical" lines of the
table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine
the relative total costs of owning different funds. If you were subject to any
transaction costs during the period, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
AMERICAN BEACON U.S. GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND(SM)
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The U.S. Government Money Market Fund maintained the strategy of purchasing
3-month LIBOR-based variable rate securities in addition to short-dated
commercial paper during the period in response to the rising interest rate
environment.
With the Fed Funds futures market indicating greater than a 50% chance of
another 25 percentage point rate increase at the Fed meeting in August, the U.S.
Government Money Market Fund continued to keep its weighted-average maturity
relatively short. However, we will continue to monitor economic trends and
adjust our duration posture accordingly. In addition, we remain conservative on
credit risk given the tight credit spread environment.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the total return of the Cash
Management Class of the American Beacon U.S. Government Money Market Fund was
2.28%. The Fund outperformed the Lipper Institutional U.S. Government Money
Market Average return of 2.15% by 13 percentage points. Lipper Inc. ranked the
Cash Management Class of the Fund 9th among 140, 11th among 103 and 11th among
61 Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Funds for the one-year, five-year
and ten-year periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively(1). The Lipper

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
AMERICAN BEACON MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND(SM)
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The American Beacon Municipal Money Market Fund maintained a relatively
short average maturity in the first half of 2006. The variable rate demand note
(VRDN) market provided the most attractive investment option throughout the
period. Rates on these securities remained appealing, as short-term interest
rates were increased at seventeen consecutive Fed meetings since June 2004.
We will continue to focus purchases on attractively priced VRDNs backed by
letters of credit or bond insurance and may buy selective fixed rate instruments
when evidence emerges that the Fed has completed its current tightening cycle.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the total return of the PlanAhead
Class of the American Beacon Municipal Money Market Fund was 1.16%. The Fund
under-performed the Lipper Tax-Exempt Money Market Average return of 1.27%. The
Lipper Tax-Exempt Money Market Average is calculated by taking an arithmetic
average of the returns of the mutual funds in the Lipper Tax-Exempt Money Market
Funds category. Lipper is an independent mutual fund research and ranking
service that ranks mutual funds in various categories by making comparative
calculations using total returns.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning
of the period and held for the entire period from January 1, 2006 through June
30, 2006.

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
AMERICAN BEACON MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND(SM) -- CONTINUED
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The "Actual" lines of the table provide information about actual account
values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together
with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the
period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600
account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number
in the "Actual" line under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate
the expenses you paid on your account during this period. Shareholders of the
PlanAhead Class that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to a
custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your
account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would
have been $12 higher.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The "Hypothetical" lines of the table provide information about
hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual
expense ratio and an assumed 5% per year rate of return before expenses (not the
Fund's actual return). You may compare the ongoing costs of investing in the
Fund with other funds by contrasting this 5% hypothetical example and the 5%
hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the
actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. Shareholders
of the PlanAhead Class that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to
a custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your
account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would
have been $12 higher.
You should also be aware that the expenses shown in the table highlight
only your ongoing costs and do not reflect any transaction costs charged by the
Fund. Similarly, the expense examples for other funds do not reflect any
transaction costs charged by those funds, such as sales charges (loads),
redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the "Hypothetical" lines of the
table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine
the relative total costs of owning different funds. If you were subject to any
transaction costs during the period, your costs would have been higher.

most recent fiscal half-year (181) by days in the year (365) to reflect

AMERICAN BEACON FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
American Beacon Funds (the "Trust") is organized as a Massachusetts
business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the
"Act"), as amended, as a diversified, no-load, open-end management investment
company with separate series. The following series are included in this report:
American Beacon Money Market, American Beacon U.S. Government Money Market and
American Beacon Municipal Money Market Funds (each a "Fund" and collectively,
the "Funds").
Each Fund invests all of its investable assets in the corresponding
portfolio of the American Beacon Master Trust, an open-end diversified
management investment company, as follows:
<Table>
<Caption>
AMERICAN BEACON: INVESTS ASSETS IN AMERICAN BEACON MASTER TRUST:
- ---------------- -----------------------------
Money Market Fund Money Market Portfolio
U.S. Government Money Market Fund U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio
Municipal Money Market Fund Municipal Money Market Portfolio
</Table>
Each Fund has the same investment objectives as its corresponding American
Beacon Master Trust Portfolio. The value of such investment reflects each Fund's
proportionate interest in the net assets of the corresponding portfolio (7.83%,
4.19% and 23.84% at June 30, 2006 of the American Beacon Master Trust Money
Market, U.S. Government Money Market and Municipal Money Market Portfolios,
respectively) (each a "Portfolio" and collectively the "Portfolios"). The
financial statements of the Portfolios are included elsewhere in this report and
should be read in conjunction with the Funds' financial statements.
American Beacon Advisors, Inc. (the "Manager") is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of AMR Corporation, the parent company of American Airlines, Inc. ("American"),
and was organized in 1986 to provide business management, advisory,
administrative and asset management consulting services to the Trust and other
investors.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed
by the Funds.
Class Disclosure
Each Fund has multiple classes of shares designed to meet the needs of
different groups of investors. Please note that not all Funds offer all classes.
The following table sets forth the differences amongst the classes:
CLASS OFFERED TO: SERVICE AND DISTRIBUTION FEES:
- ----- ----------- ------------------------------
CASH MANAGEMENT CLASS Investors making an initial investment of $10 Administrative Service Fee -- 0.07%
million for Money Market and $2 million for U.S.
Government Money Market, or investors investing
through an intermediary
INSTITUTIONAL CLASS Investors making an initial investment of $2 Administrative Service Fee -- 0.10%
million
PLANAHEAD CLASS General public and investors investing through an Administrative Service Fee -- 0.10%
intermediary Service Fee -- 0.25%
PLATINUM CLASS Investors investing through selected financial Administrative Service Fee -- 0.65%
institutions (such as banks and broker-dealers) Distribution Fee -- 0.25%
Valuation of Investments
The Funds record their investment in the Portfolios at fair value.
Valuation of securities by the Portfolios is discussed in Note 1 of the
Portfolios' Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this
report.
Investment Income and Dividends to Shareholders
Each Fund records its share of net investment income (loss) and realized
gain (loss) in the Portfolio each day. All net investment income (loss) and
realized gain (loss) of each Portfolio are allocated pro rata among the
13
AMERICAN BEACON FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
corresponding Fund and other investors in each Portfolio at the time of such
determination. The Funds generally declare dividends daily from net investment
income and net short-term capital gain, if any, payable monthly.
Dividends to shareholders are determined in accordance with federal income
tax principles that may treat certain transactions differently than U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses
Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains
and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative
proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly
attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that
class.
Valuation of Shares
The price per share is calculated separately for each class of each Fund on
each day on which shares are offered for sale and orders accepted or upon
receipt of a redemption request. With respect to a class of a Fund, price per
share is computed by dividing the value of the class' pro rata allocation of the
Fund's investments and other assets, less liabilities, by the number of class
shares outstanding.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimated.
Other
Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and directors are
indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their
duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into
contracts that provide indemnification to the other party or parties against
potential costs or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these
arrangements is dependent on claims that may be made in the future and,
therefore, cannot be estimated. The Trust has had no prior claims or losses
pursuant to any such agreement.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Administrative Services Agreement
The Manager and the Trust entered into an Administrative Services Agreement
that obligates the Manager to provide or oversee administrative and management
services to the Funds. As compensation for performing the duties required under
the Administrative Services Agreement, the Manager receives an annualized fee of
0.10% of the average daily net assets of each of the Institutional, PlanAhead
and Platinum Classes of the Funds.
The Trust has adopted an Administrative Services Plan with respect to the
Platinum Class of the Funds. As compensation for providing administrative
services, the Manager receives an annualized fee of 0.55% of the average daily
net assets of the Platinum Class of each Fund.
A separate Administrative Services Plan has been adopted for the Cash
Management Class of the Funds. As compensation for providing administrative
services, the Manager receives an annualized fee of 0.07% of the average daily
net assets of the Cash Management Class of each Fund.
14
AMERICAN BEACON FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distribution Plan
The Trust, except for the Platinum Class of the Funds, has adopted a
"defensive" Distribution Plan (the "Plan") in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under
the Act, pursuant to which no fees may be charged to the Funds for distribution
purposes. However, the Plan authorizes the fees received by the Manager to be
used for distribution purposes. Under this plan, the Trust does not intend to
compensate the Manager or any other party, either directly or indirectly, for
the distribution of Trust shares.
A separate Distribution Plan (the "Distribution Plan") has been adopted
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act for the Platinum Class of the Funds. Under
the Distribution Plan, as compensation for distribution assistance, the Manager
receives an annualized fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the
Platinum class of each Fund. The fee will be payable without regard to whether
the amount of the fee is more or less than the actual expenses incurred in a
particular month by the Manager for distribution assistance.
Service Agreement
The Manager and the Trust entered into a Service Agreement which obligates
the Manager to oversee additional shareholder servicing of the PlanAhead Class.
As compensation for performing the duties required under the Service Agreement,
the Manager receives 0.25% based on the daily net assets of the PlanAhead Class.
Reimbursement and Waiver of Expenses
The Manager contractually agreed to reimburse the Cash Management Class of
each Fund for other expenses through February 28, 2007 to the extent that total
annual fund operating expenses exceed 0.15% and 0.19% for the Money Market and
U.S. Government Money Market Funds, respectively.
The Manager contractually agreed to reimburse the PlanAhead Class of the
Municipal Money Market Fund for other expenses through February 28, 2007 to the
extent that total annual fund operating expenses exceed 0.99%. In addition, the
Manager voluntarily agreed to reimburse the PlanAhead Class of the U.S.
Government Money Market Fund for other expenses through February 28, 2007 to the
extent that total annual fund operating expenses exceed 0.65%. Beginning June
26, 2006 the Manager voluntarily agreed to reimburse the Institutional Class of
the Money Market Fund for other expenses to the extent annualized operating
expenses exceed 0.18%.
The Manager contractually agreed to reimburse the Platinum Class of each
Fund for distribution fees and other expenses through February 28, 2007 to the
extent that total annual fund operating expenses exceed 0.99%. During the six
months ended June 30, 2006, the Manager waived or reimbursed expenses as
follows:
<Table>

Expense Reimbursement Plan
The Funds have adopted an Expense Reimbursement Plan whereby the Manager
may seek recoupment of fees waived or expenses reimbursed for a period of up to
three years. However, recoupment will occur only if the Class'
15
AMERICAN BEACON FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
average net assets have grown or expenses have declined sufficiently to allow
recoupment without causing its expense ratio to exceed the previously agreed
upon contractual expense limit. The following waived fees or reimbursed expenses
are subject to potential recovery expiring in:
<Table>
<Caption>
U.S. GOVERNMENT MUNICIPAL
YEAR MONEY MARKET MONEY MARKET MONEY MARKET
- ---- ------------ --------------- ------------
2006................................................. $ 83,552 $77,375 $18,920

2008................................................. 293,487 54,846 29,552
2009................................................. 141,377 41,047 23,858
</Table>
The Funds have not recorded a liability for this potential reimbursement
due to the current assessment that a reimbursement is unlikely.
Other
Certain officers or Trustees of the Trust are also current or former
officers or employees of the Manager or American. The Trust makes no direct
payments to its officers. Mr. Feld and the non-interested Trustees (other than
Mr. O'Sullivan) and their spouses are provided free unlimited air transportation
on American. Retired Trustees and their spouses are provided free transportation
on American, up to a maximum annual value of $40,000. The Trust compensates each
Trustee with payments in an amount equal to the Trustee's income tax on the
value of this free airline travel. Mr. O'Sullivan, as a retiree of American,
already receives flight benefits. This Trustee receives an annual retainer plus
a fee for each Board meeting attended.
3. FEDERAL INCOME AND EXCISE TAXES
It is the policy of each of the Funds to comply with the requirements of
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all
net investment income as well as any net realized capital gains on the sale of
investments. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) may differ for
financial statement and tax purposes because of temporary or permanent book-to-
tax differences. To the extent these differences are permanent,
reclassifications are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the period that
the differences arise. Temporary differences are not reflected in the financial
records.
Dividends are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations
which may treat certain transactions differently than United States generally
accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, the character of distributions and
composition of net assets for tax purposes may differ from those reflected in
the accompanying financial statements.

AMERICAN BEACON MASTER TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
American Beacon Master Trust (the "Trust"), formerly known as AMR
Investment Services Trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, as a no load, open-end management investment company that was
organized as a trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
pursuant to a Declaration of Trust dated as of November 1, 2004. Prior to
November 1, 2004, the Trust was organized as a trust under the laws of the State
of New York. Beneficial interests in the Trust are divided into separate series,
each having distinct investment objectives and policies. These financial
statements relate to the American Beacon Master Money Market Portfolio, American
Beacon Master U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio and American Beacon Master
Municipal Money Market Portfolio (each a "Portfolio" and collectively the
"Portfolios"). The objective of each Portfolio is current income, liquidity and
the maintenance of a stable price of $1.00 per share. The assets of each
Portfolio belong only to that Portfolio, and the liabilities of each Portfolio
are borne solely by that Portfolio and no other.
American Beacon Advisors, Inc. (the "Manager"), formerly known as AMR
Investment Services, Inc., is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AMR Corporation, the
parent company of American Airlines, Inc. ("American"), and was organized in
1986 to provide business management, advisory, administrative and asset
management consulting services.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed
by the Portfolios.
Security Valuation
Securities of the Portfolios are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates fair value. In the event that a deviation of 1/2 of 1% or more
exists between the $1.00 per share price of the Portfolios, calculated at
amortized cost, and the price per share calculated by reference to market
quotations, or if there is any other deviation that the Trust's Board of
Trustees (the "Board") believes would result in a material dilution to
shareholders or purchasers, the Board will promptly consider the appropriate
action that should be initiated.
Security Transactions and Investment Income
Security transactions are recorded on the trade date of the security
purchase or sale. Interest income is earned from settlement date, recorded on
the accrual basis, and adjusted, if necessary, for amortization of premiums or
accretion of discounts on investment grade short-term securities and zero coupon
instruments. For financial and tax reporting purposes, realized gains and losses
are determined on the basis of specific lot identification.
Federal Income and Excise Taxes
The Portfolios will be treated as partnerships for federal income tax
purposes. As such, each investor in a Portfolio will be taxed on its share of
the Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that each
Portfolio's assets will be managed in such a way that an investor in the
Portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the
Internal Revenue Code.
Repurchase Agreements
Under the terms of a repurchase agreement, securities are acquired by a
Portfolio from a securities dealer or a bank that are subject to resale at a
later date. Repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by U.S. Treasury or
U.S. Government agency securities and are valued at cost, which approximates
market value. All collateral is held at the Portfolio's custodian bank, State
Street Bank and Trust Company, or at subcustodian banks. The collateral is
monitored daily by the Manager so that the collateral's market value exceeds the
carrying value of the repurchase agreement plus accrued interest.

AMERICAN BEACON MASTER TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED
JUNE 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimated.
Other
Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and directors are
indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their
duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into
contracts that provide indemnification to the other party or parties against
potential costs or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these
arrangements is dependent on claims that may be made in the future and,
therefore, cannot be estimated. The Trust has had no prior claims or losses
pursuant to any such agreement.
2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management Agreement
The Trust and the Manager are parties to a Management Agreement that
obligates the Manager to provide or oversee the provision of all administrative,
investment advisory and portfolio management services. The Manager serves as the
sole investment advisor to each of the Portfolios. As compensation for
performing the duties required under the Management Agreement, the Manager
receives from the Portfolios 0.10% of the average daily net assets of each of
the Portfolios.
Interfund Lending Program
Pursuant to an exemptive order by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
the Portfolios, along with other registered investment companies having
management contracts with the Manager, may participate in an interfund lending
program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Money
Market Portfolio to lend money to other participating series managed by the
Manager. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Money Market Portfolio
earned $79 under the credit facility. This amount is included in interest income
on the financial statements.
Other
Certain officers or Trustees of the Trust are also current or former
officers or employees of the Manager or American. The Trust makes no direct
payments to its officers. Mr. Feld and the non-interested Trustees (other than
Mr. O'Sullivan) and their spouses are provided free unlimited air transportation
on American. Retired Trustees and their spouses are provided free air
transportation on American, up to a maximum annual value of $40,000. The Trust
compensates each Trustee with payments in an amount equal to the Trustee's
income tax on the value of this free airline travel. Mr. O'Sullivan as a retiree
of American, already receives flight benefits. Mr. O'Sullivan receives an annual
retainer plus a fee for each Board meeting attended.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES' APPROVAL OF THE MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENTS OF THE FUNDS AND THE PORTFOLIOS
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At its February 17, 2006 meeting, the Board of Trustees (the "Board")
considered the renewal of the existing Management Agreements (the "Agreements")
between the Manager and the American Beacon Funds, on behalf of the American
Beacon Money Market Fund, American Beacon Municipal Money Market Fund, and the
American Beacon U.S. Government Money Market Fund (collectively, the "Funds"),
and between the Manager and the American Beacon Master Trust, on behalf of the
American Beacon Master Money Market Portfolio, American Beacon Master Municipal
Money Market Portfolio, and the American Beacon Master U.S. Government Money
Market Portfolio (collectively, the "Portfolios"). The term "Funds" is used
throughout this section to refer to both the Funds and the Portfolios. In
preparation for the Board's consideration to renew the Agreements, the Board and
its Investment Committee undertook steps to gather and consider information
furnished by the Manager and Lipper, Inc. ("Lipper"). The Board, with the
assistance of independent legal counsel, requested and received certain relevant
information from the Manager. In addition, the Board's Investment Committee
worked with Lipper to obtain relevant comparative information regarding the
performance, fees and expenses of the Funds. The Investment Committee held
separate meetings on December 8, 2005, February 8, 2006 and February 17, 2006 to
consider the information provided by Lipper. Further, the Board took into
consideration information furnished for the Board's review and consideration
throughout the year at regular Board and Investment Committee meetings, as well
as information specifically prepared in connection with the renewal process.
The Board considered, among other materials, responses by the Manager to
inquiries requesting:
- a description of any significant changes (actual or anticipated) to
principal activities, personnel, services provided to the Funds, or any
other area, including how these changes might affect the Funds;
- a copy of the Manager's most recent audited or unaudited financial
statements as well as Parts I and II of its Form ADV;
- a summary of any material past, pending or anticipated litigation or
regulatory proceedings involving the Manager or its personnel, including
the results of any recent regulatory examination or independent audit;
- a cost/profitability analysis of the Manager and any actual or
anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services it provides to
the Funds, if available;
- an analysis of compensation, including a comparison with fees charged to
other clients for which similar services are provided, any proposed
changes to the fee schedule and the effect of any fee waivers;
- an evaluation of any other benefits to the Manager or Funds as a result
of their relationship, if any;
- confirmation that the Manager's financial condition does not raise
concerns that it would be unable to continue providing the same scope and
quality of services to the Funds;
- a description of the scope of portfolio management services provided to
the Funds, including whether such services differ from the services
provided to other clients, including other registered investment
companies;
- a description of the personnel who are assigned primary responsibility
for managing the Funds, including any changes during the past year;
- a description of the basis upon which portfolio managers are compensated,
including any "incentive" arrangements;
- a discussion regarding the Manager's participation in "soft dollar"
arrangements, if any;
- a description of any actual or potential conflicts of interest
anticipated in managing Fund assets;
- a description of trade allocation procedures among accounts managed by
the firm;
- a summary of any material changes to the Manager's compliance program
with regard to federal, state, corporate and Fund requirements;
38
DISCLOSURE REGARDING THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES' APPROVAL OF THE MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENTS OF THE FUNDS AND THE PORTFOLIOS -- CONTINUED
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- a discussion of any material compliance problems and remedial actions;
- information regarding the Manager's code of ethics, insider trading
policy and disaster recovery plan, including a description of any
material changes thereto;
- a description of the Manager's affiliation with any broker-dealer;
- a discussion of any anticipated change in the Manager's controlling
persons;
- verification of the Manager's insurance coverage with regards to the
services provided to the Funds;
- a comparison of the performance of each Fund to appropriate indices,
including comments on the relative performance of each Fund versus
comparable indices;
- a discussion, if applicable, of any underperformance by a Fund relative
to its peer group;
- an analysis of any material complaints received from Fund shareholders;
- a description of the Manager's securities lending practices and the fees
received from such practices;
- a description of the portfolio turnover rate and average execution costs
for each Fund;
- a discussion of whether the Manager receives, with respect to trade
execution for the Funds, other special compensation, including any
payment for order flow; and
- a description of how expenses that are not readily identifiable to a
particular Fund are allocated.
The Board also obtained an analysis provided by Lipper that compared: (i)
investment performance of each Fund versus comparable investment companies and
appropriate indices; (ii) total Fund expenses of each Fund versus comparable
mutual funds, and (iii) each Fund's investment advisory fees versus comparable
mutual funds. For each Fund, the class used for comparative purposes was the
class with the longest performance history, which in most cases is the
Institutional Class. References below to each Fund's Lipper peer group are to
the group of comparable mutual funds included in the analysis provided by
Lipper.
The Trustees also received a memorandum from their legal counsel detailing
the Board's responsibilities pertaining to the renewal of the Agreements. This
memorandum explained the regulatory requirements surrounding the Board's process
for evaluating investment advisors and the terms of the contracts.
Provided below is an overview of the primary factors the Board considered
at its February 2006 meeting. The Board did not identify any particular
information that was most relevant to its consideration to renew the Agreements,
and each Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors.
CONSIDERATIONS WITH RESPECT TO ALL FUNDS
In determining whether to approve the continuance of the Agreements, the
Board considered the best interests of each Fund separately. In addition, while
the Agreements for all of the Funds were considered at the same Board meeting,
the Board considered each Fund's investment management relationship separately.
In each instance, the Board considered, among other things, the following
factors: (1) the nature and quality of the services provided; (2) the investment
performance of the Fund; (3) the Manager's cost for providing the services and
the profitability of the advisory business to the Manager; (4) the extent to
which economies of scale have been taken into account in setting the fee
schedule; and (5) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the
benefit of Fund investors. The Trustees posed questions to various management
personnel of the Manager regarding certain key aspects of the material submitted
in support of the renewal.
39
DISCLOSURE REGARDING THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES' APPROVAL OF THE MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENTS OF THE FUNDS AND THE PORTFOLIOS -- CONTINUED
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
With respect to the renewal of the Agreements, the Board considered: the
Manager's ability to retain key investment personnel and to provide consistent
performance and an active client service program; the Manager's goal to provide
consistent above average long-term performance at low cost; the continuing
efforts by the Manager to add new Funds so as to enhance the Trusts' product
line; the Manager's record in building improved compliance, control and credit
functions that reduce risks to the Funds; and the addition of personnel to
manage the Funds, promote sales and improve services. Based on this information,
the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the management
services provided by the Manager were appropriate for each Fund and, thus,
supported a decision to renew the Agreements.
Investment Performance
The Board evaluated the comparative information provided by Lipper and the
Manager regarding each Fund's investment performance relative to its benchmark
index(es) and peer group. The Board also considered the performance reports and
discussions with management at Board and Committee meetings throughout the year.
Discussions regarding the Board's considerations with respect to each Fund's
performance are below under "Additional Considerations and Conclusions with
Respect to each Fund."
Cost of Services and Profits Realized
In analyzing the cost of services and profitability of the Manager in
connection with its investment advisory services to a Fund, the Board considered
the Manager's operations and low cost structure. The Board considered that the
Manager receives service and administrative fees to compensate the Manager for
providing administrative services to the Funds and to compensate third-party
administrators and broker-dealers for services to Fund shareholders. Discussions
regarding the Board's considerations with respect to each Fund's fee rates are
set forth below under "Additional Considerations and Conclusions with Respect to
each Fund."
Economies of Scale
In considering the reasonableness of the management fees, the Board
considered whether economies of scale will be realized as the Funds grow and
whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund
shareholders. With respect to the management fee, the Board acknowledged the
Manager's low cost structure and the increasing costs of personnel, technology
and operations. Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that the
Funds' fee structures are reasonably designed to pass on economies of scale to
Fund shareholders.
Benefits to be Derived from the Relationship with the Funds
The Board considered the "fall-out" or ancillary benefits that accrue to
the Manager as a result of the advisory relationships with the Funds, including
greater exposure in the marketplace with respect to the Manager's investment
process and expanding the level of assets under management by the Manager. After
consideration of this information, the Board concluded that the potential
benefits accruing to the Manager by virtue of its relationships with the Funds
appear to be fair and reasonable.
ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS WITH RESPECT TO EACH FUND
The Board considered the relative performance of each Fund versus the
respective Lipper Average, which includes all comparable funds in the Lipper
category, and the Lipper Index, which includes up to the 30 largest funds in the
respective Lipper category where the Fund is classified by Lipper.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional Considerations and Conclusions with Respect to the Money Market
Fund
In considering the renewal of the Agreements with the Fund, the Board
considered performance data for various periods ended December 31, 2005. In this
regard, they considered that: (1) the Institutional Class total return
performance was in the 2nd quintile for all relevant periods compared to the
returns of a peer group of mutual funds identified by Lipper as having an
investment objective similar to the Fund ("Lipper Universe"), and (2) the
Institutional Class outperformed the Lipper Institutional Money Market Average
for all relevant periods and underperformed the Lipper Institutional Money
Market Index for all relevant periods except the ten-year period.
In addition, the Board considered the fees payable under the Agreements. In
this regard, they considered that: (1) the Institutional Class total expenses
were in the 2nd quintile and actual management fees (including administrative
fees) were in the 4th quintile compared to the expenses and fees of a peer group
of similar funds classified by Lipper ("Fee Universe") where the 1st quintile
represents the lowest fees or expenses among the group; (2) the Manager's
explanation that fee schedule "breakpoints" were not warranted due to, among
other factors, the low, base management fee (excluding administrative fees)
charged to the Fund; and (3) the Manager has contractually agreed to waive fees
and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain a competitive
total expense ratio for the Institutional, Cash Management, and Platinum Classes
of the Fund.
Based on these considerations and those noted above with respect to all
Funds, the Board: (1) concluded that the fees paid to the Manager under the
Agreements are fair and reasonable; (2) concluded that the profits to the
Manager are reasonable in light of the quality of services provided to the Fund,
including direct management of the Fund's assets; (3) determined that the Fund
and its shareholders would benefit from the Manager's continued management of
the Fund; and (4) approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the
Fund.
Additional Considerations and Conclusions with Respect to the Municipal Money
Market Fund
In considering the renewal of the Agreements with the Fund, the Board
considered performance data for various periods ended December 31, 2005. In this
regard, they considered that: (1) the PlanAhead Class total return performance
was in the 5th quintile for all relevant periods except the five-and ten-year
periods in which case its performance was in the 4th and 3rd quintile,
respectively, compared to the Lipper Universe; (2) the PlanAhead Class
underperformed the Lipper Tax Exempt Money Market Average and the Lipper Tax
Exempt Money Market Index for all relevant periods; and (3) the Manager's
explanation that the PlanAhead Class has a relatively low level of assets, which
resulted in a higher expense ratio and a negative impact on performance during
the more recent periods.
In addition, the Board considered the fees payable under the Agreements. In
this regard, they considered that: (1) the PlanAhead Class total expenses were
in the 5th quintile and actual management fees (including administrative fees)
were in the 1st quintile compared to the Fee Universe where the 1st quintile
represents the lowest fees or expenses among the group; (2) the Manager's
explanation that fee schedule "breakpoints" were not warranted due to, among
other factors, the low, base management fee charged to the Fund; (3) the Manager
has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent
necessary to maintain a competitive total expense ratio for the PlanAhead and
Platinum Classes of the Fund; and (4) the Manager's profitability analysis
indicated that it incurred a loss on the services it provided to the Fund.
Based on these considerations and those noted above with respect to all
Funds, the Board: (1) concluded that the fees paid to the Manager under the
Agreements are fair and reasonable; (2) concluded that the profits to the
Manager are reasonable in light of the quality of services provided to the Fund,
including direct management of the Fund's assets; (3) determined that the Fund
and its shareholders would benefit from the Manager's continued management of
the Fund; and (4) approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the
Fund.

Additional Considerations and Conclusions with Respect to the U.S. Government
Money Market Fund
In considering the renewal of the Agreements with the Fund, the Board
considered performance data for various periods ended December 31, 2005. In this
regard, they considered that: (1) the Cash Management Class total return
performance was in the 1st quintile for all relevant periods compared to the
Lipper Universe, and (2) the Cash Management Class outperformed the Lipper
Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Average and the Lipper Institutional
U.S. Government Money Market Index for all relevant periods.
In addition, the Board considered the fees payable under the Agreements. In
this regard, they considered that: (1) the Cash Management Class actual
management fees (including administrative fees) and total expenses were in the
1st quintile compared to the Fee Universe where the 1st quintile represents the
lowest fees or expenses among the group; (2) the Manager's explanation that fee
schedule "breakpoints" were not warranted due to, among other factors, the low,
base management fee charged to the Fund; (3) the Manager has contractually
agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to
maintain a competitive total expense ratio for the Cash Management, Platinum,
and PlanAhead Classes of the Fund; and (4) the Manager's profitability analysis
indicated that it incurred a loss on the services it provided to the Fund.
Based on these considerations and those noted above with respect to all
Funds, the Board: (1) concluded that the fees paid to the Manager under the
Agreements are fair and reasonable; (2) concluded that the profits to the
Manager are reasonable in light of the quality of services provided to the Fund,
including direct management of the Fund's assets; (3) determined that the Fund
and its shareholders would benefit from the Manager's continued management of
the Fund; and (4) approved the renewal of the Agreements with respect to the
Fund.
