See accompanying notes to financial statements. MILLENNIUM INCOME TRUST TREASURERS' GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION The Millennium Income Trust, formerly the Malachi Millennium Income Trust, (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end diversified management investment company. The Trust was established as a Massachusetts business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated August 19, 1994. The Trust consists of one series, the Treasurers' Government Money Market Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment objective is to seek high current income consistent with stability of capital and liquidity by investing in a portfolio of U.S. Government securities. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following is a summary of the Fund's significant accounting policies: SECURITY VALUATION - Securities are valued on an amortized cost basis, which approximates market value. This involves initially valuing a security at its original cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. SHARE VALUATION - The net asset value per share of the Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of the Fund's assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. INVESTMENT INCOME - Interest income is accrued as earned and includes, where applicable, the pro-rata amortization of premium or accretion of discount. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the last business day of each month. Net realized short-term capital gains, if any, may be distributed throughout the year and net realized long-term capital gains, if any, are distributed at least once each year. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. For the years ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, there were no differences between the book basis and tax basis of distributions. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS - Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Securities sold are determined on a specific identification basis. MILLENNIUM INCOME TRUST TREASURERS' GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (Continued) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - Repurchase agreements are collateralized by U.S. Government securities and are valued at cost, which, together with accrued interest, approximates market. Collateral for repurchase agreements is held in safekeeping in the Fund's custodian customer-only account at the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland. At the time the Fund enters into a repurchase agreement, the seller agrees that the value of the underlying securities, including accrued interest, will be equal to or exceed the face amount of the repurchase agreement. In the event of a bankruptcy or other default of the seller of a repurchase agreement, the Fund could experience both delays in liquidating the underlying security and losses. These losses would equal the face amount of the repurchase agreement(s) and accrued interest, net of any proceeds received in liquidation of the underlying securities. To minimize the possibility of loss, the Fund enters into repurchase agreements only with institutions deemed to be creditworthy under guidelines established by the Board of Trustees. ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. FEDERAL INCOME TAX - It is the Fund's policy to comply with the special provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. As provided therein, in any fiscal year in which a Fund so qualifies and distributes at least 90% of its taxable net income, the Fund (but not the shareholders) will be relieved of federal income tax on the income distributed. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made. In order to avoid imposition of the excise tax applicable to regulated investment companies, it is also the Fund's intention to declare and pay as dividends in each calendar year at least 98% of its net investment income (earned during the calendar year) and 98% of its net realized capital gains (earned during the twelve months ended October 31) plus undistributed amounts from prior years. The following information is computed on a tax basis for each item as of September 30, 2003: Cost of portfolio investments $ 2,519,772 ============ Capital loss carryforwards $ (26,767) ------------ Accumulated deficit $ (26,767) ============ MILLENNIUM INCOME TRUST TREASURERS' GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 (Continued) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The capital loss carryforwards as of September 30, 2003 in the table above expire as follows: Amount Expires September 30, ------ --------------------- $ 19,379 2008 2,476 2009 3,986 2010 926 2011 ----------- $ 26,767 =========== The capital loss carryforwards may be utilized in the future years to offset net realized capital gains, if any, prior to distributing such gains to shareholders. 3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES The President of the Trust is the chairman and controlling shareholder of Trias Capital Management, Inc. ("Trias"), the Trust's investment manager. Certain other officers of the Trust are officers of Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC ("Ultimus"), the Trust's administrator. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT The Fund's investments are managed by Trias pursuant to the terms of a Management Agreement. Under the terms of the Management Agreement, the Fund pays Trias a fee, which is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of .20% of its average daily net assets. In order to reduce the Fund's operating expenses during the year ended September 30, 2003, Trias voluntarily waived all of its investment management fees and reimbursed the Fund for other operating expenses in order to limit the Fund's total expense ratio to .25% of average daily net assets through December 16, 2002 and .35% of such assets thereafter. During the year ended September 30, 2003, the total of such fee waivers and expense reimbursements was $149,797. As of September 30, 2003, the Adviser owed the Fund $78,688 for expense reimbursements. Additionally, during the year ended September 30, 2003, Trias made a $14,400 capital contribution to the Fund to offset the effect of realized losses incurred by the Fund. The effect of this contribution was to increase the Fund's total return by 1.00% for the year ended September 30, 2003. MUTUAL FUND SERVICES AGREEMENT Under the terms of a Mutual Fund Services Agreement, Ultimus provides administrative, fund accounting and pricing, and transfer agent and shareholder services to the Fund. For these services, Ultimus receives a base fee of $5,000 per month, plus an asset-based fee equal to the annual rate of 0.10% of the Fund's average net assets in excess of $50 million but less than $250 million; 0.075% of such assets in excess of $250 million but less than $500 million; and 0.05% of such assets in excess of $500 million. During the year ended September 30, 2003, Ultimus was paid $60,000 under the Mutual Fund Services Agreement. Report of Independent Auditors To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Millennium Income Trust We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of the Treasurers' Government Money Market Fund (the "Fund") of the Millennium Income Trust, formerly Malachi Millennium Income Trust, as of September 30, 2003, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, and the statements of changes in net assets and financial highlights for each of the two years then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. The financial highlights presented herein for each of the respective years ended September 30, 2001 were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations. Those auditors expressed an unqualified opinion on the financial highlights in their report dated October 12, 2001. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Treasurers' Government Money Market Fund of the Millennium Income Trust as of September 30, 2003, the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets and financial highlights for each of the two years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Cincinnati, Ohio October 24, 2003 MILLENNIUM INCOME TRUST TREASURERS' GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS (UNAUDITED) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overall responsibility for management of the Fund rests with the Board of Trustees.
