ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Asset Allocation-Conservative Portfolio ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2002. On March 3, 2003, the Fund changed its name from IDEX Conservative Asset Allocation to IDEX Asset Allocation-Conservative Portfolio. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: The Fund's investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of the Fund. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined after the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2. FEES, EARNINGS CREDITS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. ("ATFA") is the Fund's investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc.

AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation. Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets ("ANA") at the following rate: 0.10% of ANA ATFA currently voluntarily waives its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit: 0.45% Expense Limit If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the advisor a portion or all of the waived advisory fees. Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% In addition, the underlying Fund's Class A shares in which the Fund invests impose a 0.35% 12b-1 fee. To avoid duplication of 12b-1 fees, each class of fund shares of the Fund has reduced the 12b-1 fees by the amount of the underlying funds' Class A 12b-1 fees. ATFA has entered into consultant agreements with Morningstar Associates, LLC to provide investment services to the Fund. ATFA compensates Morningstar Associates, LLC as described in the Prospectus.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Asset Allocation-Growth 5 IDEX Asset Allocation-Growth Portfolio - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Asset Allocation-Growth Portfolio ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2002. On March 3, 2003, the Fund changed its name from IDEX Aggressive Asset Allocation to IDEX Asset Allocation-Growth Portfolio. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: The Fund's investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of the Fund. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined after the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded for on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2. FEES, EARNINGS CREDITS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. ("ATFA") is the Fund's investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc.

Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets ("ANA") at the following rate: 0.10% of ANA ATFA currently voluntarily waives its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit: 0.45% Expense Limit If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the advisor a portion or all of the waived advisory fees. Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% In addition, the underlying Fund's Class A shares in which the Fund invests impose a 0.35% 12b-1 fee. To avoid duplication of 12b-1 fees, each class of fund shares of the Fund has reduced the 12b-1 fees by the amount of the underlying funds' Class A 12b-1 fees. ATFA has entered into a consultant agreement with Morningstar Associates, LLC to provide investment services to the Fund. ATFA compensates Morningstar Associates, LLC as described in the Prospectus.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Asset Allocation-Moderate Portfolio 5 IDEX Asset Allocation-Moderate Portfolio - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Asset Allocation-Moderate Portfolio ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2002. On March 3, 2003, the Fund changed its name from IDEX Moderate Asset Allocation to IDEX Asset Allocation-Moderate Portfolio. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: The Fund's investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of the Fund. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined after the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% In addition, the underlying Funds' Class A shares in which the Fund invests impose a 0.35% 12b-1 fee. To avoid duplication of 12b-1 fees, each class of fund shares of the Fund has reduced the 12b-1 fees by the amount of the underlying funds' Class A 12b-1 fees. ATFA has entered into a consultant agreement with Morningstar Associates, LLC to provide investment services to the Fund. ATFA compensates Morningstar Associates, LLC as described in the Prospectus.

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Asset Allocation-Moderate Growth Portfolio ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2002. On March 3, 2003, the Fund changed its name from IDEX Moderately Aggressive Asset Allocation to IDEX Asset Allocation-Moderate Growth Portfolio. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: The Fund's investments are valued at the net asset values of the underlying portfolios of the Fund. The net asset values of the underlying portfolios are determined after the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time) on the valuation date. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Fund are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Alger Aggressive Growth 6 IDEX Alger Aggressive Growth - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Alger Aggressive Growth ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on December 2, 1994. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Directed Brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the payment of operating expenses that would otherwise be borne by the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party. Directed commissions during the six-months ended April 30, 2003, of $17 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Alger Aggressive Growth 7 IDEX Alger Aggressive Growth - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions.

Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. At April 30, 2003, invested plan amounts are included in Other assets, and the total liability of $13 for deferred compensation to Trustees is included in Other liabilities. NOTE 3.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 American Century Income & Growth 8 IDEX American Century Income & Growth - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX American Century Income & Growth ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2000. On March 1, 2002, IDEX GE U.S. Equity acquired all the net assets of IDEX American Century Income & Growth pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of IDEX American Century Income & Growth on February 22, 2002. The acquisition accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 1,150 shares of IDEX American Century Income & Growth (valued at $11,600) for the 1,251 shares of IDEX GE U.S. Equity outstanding on February 28, 2002. IDEX American Century Income & Growth net assets at that date ($11,600) including $145 of unrealized depreciation, were combined with those of IDEX GE U.S. Equity. The aggregate net assets of IDEX GE U.S. Equity and IDEX American Century Income & Growth immediately before the acquisition were $26,183 and $11,600, respectively. Immediately following the merger, IDEX GE U.S. Equity was renamed IDEX American Century Income & Growth. Shares Amount -------- ----------- Proceeds in connection with the acquisition Class A 363 $ 3,678 Class B 581 5,853 Class C 111 1,115 Class M 95 954 -------- $ 11,600 ======== In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 American Century Income & Growth 9 IDEX American Century Income & Growth - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Futures contracts: The Fund may enter into futures contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. The underlying face amounts of any open futures contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. The variation margin receivable or payable, as applicable, is included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Variation margin represents the additional payments due or excess deposits made in order to maintain the equity account at the required margin level. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 American Century International 8 IDEX American Century International - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX American Century International ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on February 1, 1997. On March 1, 2003, the Fund acquired all the net assets of IDEX Gabelli Global Growth pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of IDEX Gabelli Global Growth on February 12, 2003. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 5,472 shares of the Fund for the 6,190 shares of IDEX Gabelli Global Growth outstanding on February 28, 2003. IDEX Gabelli Global Growth's net assets at that date ($34,573), including $(10,073) of unrealized depreciation, were combined with those of the Fund. Proceeds in connection with the acquisition were as follows: Shares Amount -------- ----------- Proceeds in connection with the acquisition Class A 1,824 $ 11,819 Class B 2,448 15,256 Class C 808 5,043 Class L 7 43 Class M 385 2,412 -------- $ 34,573 ======== On March 1, 2002, IDEX International Equity acquired all the net assets of IDEX American Century International pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of IDEX American Century International on February 22, 2002. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 447 shares of IDEX American Century International (valued at $3,605) for the 449 shares of IDEX International Equity outstanding on February 28, 2002. IDEX American Century International's net assets at that date ($3,605), including $8 of unrealized appreciation, were combined with those of IDEX International Equity. The aggregate net assets of IDEX International Equity and IDEX American Century International immediately before the acquisition were $11,514 and $3,605, respectively. Immediately following the merger, IDEX International Equity was renamed IDEX American Century International. Shares Amount -------- ---------- Proceeds in connection with the acquisition Class A 117 $ 951 Class B 205 1,646 Class C 80 646 Class M 45 362 ------- $ 3,605 ======= In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 American Century International 9 IDEX American Century International - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amounts of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in market value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Clarion Real Estate Securities 5 IDEX Clarion Real Estate Securities - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Clarion Real Estate Securities ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2003. The Fund is "non-diversified" under the 1940 Act. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Class C and M shares are not available to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investor's Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Real Estate Investment Trusts ("REITs"): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes and interest rates. Since the Fund invests primarily in real estate related securities, the value of its shares may fluctuate more widely than the value of shares of a fund that invests in a broad range of industries. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2. FEES, EARNINGS CREDITS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. ("ATFA") is the Fund's investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. ("ATFS") is the Fund's administrator. AFSG Securities Corp. ("AFSG") is the Fund's distributor/principal underwriter. AEGON/Transamerica Investor Services, Inc. ("ATIS") is the Fund's transfer agent. ATIS and AFSG are 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company ("AUSA"). ATFA and ATFS are wholly owned subsidiaries of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio ("WRL"). AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation. Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets ("ANA") at the following stated break points: 0.80% of the first $250 million of ANA 0.775% of the next $250 million of ANA 0.70% of the next $500 million of ANA 0.65% of ANA over $1 billion ATFA currently voluntarily waives its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit: 1.40% Expense Limit If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the advisor a portion or all of the waived advisory fees. IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Clarion Real Estate Securities 6 IDEX Clarion Real Estate Securities - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 2-(continued) Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions. For the period ended April 30, 2003, the underwriter commissions were as follows: Received by Underwriter $ 1 Retained by Underwriter -- Contingent Sales Charges -- Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which include such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of trustees meeting support and other legal matters. ATFS provides its services to the Fund at a cost and is reimbursed monthly. Transfer agency fees and expenses: The Fund pays ATIS annual per-account charges (not in thousands) of $15.39 for each open shareholder account, $2.73 for each new account opened, $1.63 for each closed account maintained, and certain out-of-pocket expenses. Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Trustee may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan ("the Plan"). Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund. Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. NOTE 3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the period ended April 30, 2003, are as follows: Purchases of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government $ 30,525 U.S. Government -- Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government 352 U.S. Government -- NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of April 30, 2003, are as follows: Federal Tax Cost Basis $ 30,176 ======== Unrealized Appreciation $ 249 Unrealized (Depreciation) (118) -------- Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) $ 131 ======== IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Clarion Real Estate Securities 7 IDEX Federated Tax Exempt - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) Principal Value - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LONG-TERM MUNICIPAL BONDS (96.9%) Alabama (2.8%) Alabama Water Pollution Control, Revenue Bonds, 5.50%, due 08/15/2023 $ 500 $ 537 Birmingham Waterworks & Sewer Board, Revenue Bonds, Series B, 5.25%, due 01/01/2021 600 641 Arkansas (1.2%) Jefferson County Hospital Association, Revenue Bonds, Series B, 5.80%, due 06/01/2021 500 526 California (4.6%) California State, General Obligation Bonds, 5.25%, due 02/01/2014 500 544 Los Angeles Water and Power Division, Revenue Bonds, Series A-A-1, 5.25%, due 07/01/2019 500 539 Sacramento Municipal Utilities, Revenue Bonds, Series P, 5.25%, due 08/15/2021 300 321 Torrance Memorial Medical Center, Revenue Bonds, Series A, 6.00%, due 06/01/2022 500 542 Colorado (1.4%) Colorado Department of Transportation, Revenue Bonds, Series A, 5.50%, due 06/15/2015 500 582 District of Columbia (1.4%) District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority, Revenue Bonds, 5.50%, due 10/01/2017 500 579 Florida (1.3%) Orlando Utilities, Community Water and Electric Division, Revenue Bonds, 5.25%, due 10/01/2020 500 540 Georgia (1.3%) Clayton County Water Authority, Revenue Bonds, 5.13%, due 05/01/2021 500 529 Illinois (5.3%) Illinois State Partnership, Department of Central Management, Public Improvements, General Obligation Bonds, 5.65%, due 07/01/2017 1,000 1,118 McHenry County Community School District, General Obligation Bonds, Series A, 5.85%, due 01/01/2016 1,000 1,127 Indiana (3.8%) Indiana State Development Finance Authority, Revenue Bonds, 5.25%, due 12/01/2022 500 506 Indianapolis Gas Utility, Revenue Bonds, Series A, 5.25%, due 08/15/2012 1,000 1,118 Iowa (2.4%) Iowa State Certificate of Participation, Revenue Bonds, 6.50%, due 07/01/2006 1,000 1,024 Louisiana (1.2%) Sabine River Authority, Water Facilities, Revenue Bonds, 6.20%, due 02/01/2025 500 520 Massachusetts (2.6%) Massachusetts State Health and Educational Facilities Authority, Revenue Bonds, 5.38%, due 05/15/2017 500 543 Massachusetts State Development Finance Agency, Revenue Bonds, 6.38%, due 07/01/2023 500 538 Michigan (8.5%) Cornell Michigan, Economic Development, Revenue Bonds, 5.88%, due 05/01/2018 500 503 Michigan Municipal Bond Authority, Revenue Bonds, 5.50%, due 10/01/2022 500 584 Michigan State Strategic Fund Ltd., Revenue Bonds, 5.45%, due 09/01/2029 1,000 1,028 West Bloomfield Michigan School District, General Obligation Bonds, 5.13%, due 05/01/2021 900 947 Western Michigan University, Revenue Bonds, 5.00%, due 07/15/2021 500 521 Mississippi (1.3%) Lowdes County Solid Waste Disposal & Pollution Control, Revenue Bonds, 6.70%, due 04/01/2022 500 570 The notes to the financial statements are an integral part of this report.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Federated Tax Exempt 7 IDEX Federated Tax Exempt - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Federated Tax Exempt ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on April 1, 1985. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2. FEES, EARNINGS CREDITS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. ("ATFA") is the Fund's investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. ("ATFS") is the Fund's administrator. AFSG Securities Corp. ("AFSG") is the Fund's distributor/principal underwriter. AEGON/Transamerica Investor Services, Inc. ("ATIS") is the Fund's transfer agent. ATIS and AFSG are 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company ("AUSA"). ATFA and ATFS are wholly owned subsidiaries of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio ("WRL"). AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation. Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets ("ANA") at the following rate: 0.60% of ANA ATFA currently voluntarily waives its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit: 1.00% Expense Limit If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the advisor a portion or all of the waived advisory fees. Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.60% IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Federated Tax Exempt 8 IDEX Federated Tax Exempt - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 2-(continued) Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Great Companies-America(SM)5 IDEX Great Companies-America(SM) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Great Companies-America(SM)("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on July 14, 2000. The Fund is "non-diversified" under the 1940 Act. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Great Companies-Global(2) 6 IDEX Great Companies-Global(2) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Great Companies-Global(2) ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on September 15, 2000. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amounts of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions.

ATFS provides its services to the Fund at a cost and is reimbursed monthly. Transfer agency fees and expenses: The Fund pays ATIS annual per-account charges (not in thousands) of $15.39 for each open shareholder account, $2.73 for each new account opened, $1.63 for each closed account maintained, and certain out-of-pocket expenses. Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Trustee may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan ("the Plan"). Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund. Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. NOTE 3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the six-months ended April 30, 2003, were as follows: Purchases of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government $ 11,319 U.S. Government -- Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government 2,495 U.S. Government -- NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. The capital loss carryforwards are available to offset future realized capital gains through the periods listed: Capital Loss Carryforward Available through - -------------- ------------------ $ 1,792 October 31, 2009 836 October 31, 2009 The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of April 30, 2003, are as follows: Federal Tax Cost Basis $ 30,570 ========== Unrealized Appreciation $ 663 Unrealized (Depreciation) (2,147) ---------- Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) $ (1,484) ========== IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Great Companies-Global(2) 8 IDEX Great Companies-TechnologySM - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts except share amounts in thousands) (unaudited) Shares Value - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ COMMON STOCKS (91.2%) Business Services (6.6%) First Data Corporation 53,583 $ 2,102 Computer & Data Processing Services (26.2%) Electronic Arts Inc.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Great Companies-Technology(SM)5 IDEX Great Companies-Technology(SM) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Great Companies-Technology(SM)("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on July 14, 2000. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain in the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amounts of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions.

Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

The notes to the financial statements are an integral part of this report. IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Isabelle Small Cap Value 6 IDEX Isabelle Small Cap Value - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Isabelle Small Cap Value ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on April 2, 2001. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Directed Brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the payment of operating expenses that would otherwise be borne by the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party. Directed commissions during the six-months ended April 30, 2003, of $15 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Balanced 9 IDEX Janus Balanced - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Janus Balanced ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on December 2, 1994. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amounts of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded for on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Balanced 10 IDEX Janus Balanced - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in market value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Flexible Income 10 IDEX Janus Flexible Income - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Janus Flexible Income ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on June 29, 1987. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Flexible Income 11 IDEX Janus Flexible Income - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in market value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Futures contracts: The Fund may enter into futures contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. The underlying face amounts of open futures contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. The variation margin payable, is included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Variation margin payable represents the additional payments due in order to maintain the equity account at the required margin level. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee.

Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Global 8 IDEX Janus Global - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Janus Global ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on October 1, 1992. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at the inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Global 9 IDEX Janus Global - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in market value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Growth 7 IDEX Janus Growth - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Janus Growth ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on May 8, 1986. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers six classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Class T shares are not available to new investors. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund, excluding Class T. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions. For the six-months ended April 30, 2003, the underwriter commissions were as follows: Received by Underwriter $ 513 Retained by Underwriter 62 Contingent Sales Charges 362 Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which include such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of trustees meeting support and other legal matters. ATFS provides its services to the Fund at a cost and is reimbursed monthly. Transfer agency fees and expenses: The Fund pays ATIS annual per-account charges (not in thousands) of $15.39 for each open shareholder account, $2.73 for each new account opened, $1.63 for each closed account maintained, and certain out-of-pocket expenses. Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Trustee may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan ("the Plan"). Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund. Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. At April 30, 2003, invested plan amounts are included in Other assets, and the total liability of $224 for deferred compensation to Trustees is included in Other liabilities. NOTE 3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the six-months ended April 30, 2003, are as follows: Purchases of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government $ 337,895 U.S. Government -- Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government 413,039 U.S. Government 2,954 NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code.

The notes to the financial statements are an integral part of this report. IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Growth & Income 7 IDEX Janus Growth & Income - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Janus Growth & Income ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on December 15, 2000. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Janus Growth & Income 8 IDEX Janus Growth & Income - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in market value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Jennison Equity Opportunity 6 IDEX Jennison Equity Opportunity - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Jennison Equity Opportunity ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on February 1, 1996. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

At April 30, 2003, invested plan amounts are included in Other assets, and the total liability of $2 for deferred compensation to Trustees is included in Other liabilities. NOTE 3.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 LKCM Strategic Total Return 7 IDEX LKCM Strategic Total Return - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX LKCM Strategic Total Return ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on December 2, 1994. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Directed Brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the payment of operating expenses that would otherwise be borne by the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party. Directed commissions during the six-months ended April 30, 2003, of $9 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are to be included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amounts of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded for on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 LKCM Strategic Total Return 8 IDEX LKCM Strategic Total Return - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions.

At April 30, 2003, invested plan amounts are included in Other assets, and the total liability of $5 for deferred compensation to Trustees is included in Other liabilities. NOTE 3.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Marsico Growth 6 IDEX Marsico Growth - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Marsico Growth ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 1999. The Fund changed its name from IDEX Goldman Sachs Growth on 11/01/2002. Banc of America Capital Management, LLC replaced Goldman Sachs Asset Management as sub-adviser to the Fund. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Directed Brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the payment of operating expenses that would otherwise be borne by the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party. Directed commissions during the six-months ended April 30, 2003, of $4 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required at all times to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amounts of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments. IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Marsico Growth 7 IDEX Marsico Growth - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in market value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

IDEX Munder Net50 and IDEX PBHG Technology & Communications' net assets at that date ($935 and $14,908, respectively), including ($38 and $325, respectively) unrealized depreciation, were combined with those of the Fund. Proceeds in connection with the acquisitions were as follows: IDEX Munder Net50: Shares Amount -------- ------- Proceeds in connection with the acquisition Class A 43 $ 294 Class B 64 429 Class C 23 150 Class L 1 9 Class M 8 53 ----- $ 935 ===== IDEX PBHG Technology & Communications: Shares Amount -------- ----------- Proceeds in connection with the acquisition Class A 639 $ 4,401 Class B 1,120 7,480 Class C 302 2,015 Class L 1 11 Class M 149 1,001 -------- $ 14,908 ======== In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Directed Brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the payment of operating expenses that would otherwise be borne by the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party. Directed commissions during the six-months ended April 30, 2003, of $3 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations.

The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX PIMCO Real Return TIPS ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2003. The Fund is "non-diversified" under the 1940 Act. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Class C and M shares are not available to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Option contracts: The Fund may enter into option contracts to manage exposure to market or interest rate fluctuations. Option contracts are valued at the average of the bid and ask ("Mean Quote") established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of options; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. When the Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. The underlying face amounts of any open option contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Transactions in written options were as follows: Premium Contracts* --------- ----------- Balance at 03/01/2003 $ -- -- Sales 15 17 Closing Buys -- -- Expirations -- -- Exercised -- -- ---- -- Balance at 04/30/2003 $ 15 17 ==== == *Contracts not in thousands.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 PIMCO Total Return 11 IDEX PIMCO Total Return - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX PIMCO Total Return ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2002. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. TBA purchase commitments: The fund may enter into "TBA" (to be announced) purchase commitments to purchase securities for a fixed price at a future date, typically not to exceed 45 days. TBA purchase commitments are considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to settlement date, which is in addition to the risk of decline in the value of the Fund's other assets. Unsettled TBA purchase commitments are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described under Security Valuations. TBA purchase commitments are included in the Schedule of Investments. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain in the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as in the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 PIMCO Total Return 12 IDEX PIMCO Total Return - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in market value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Open forward currency contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Swap Agreements: The Fund may invest in swap agreements. A swap is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. The Fund may enter into total return and credit default swap agreements to manage its exposure to interest rates and credit risk. Total return swap agreements involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return, both based on notional amounts. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Fund will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty. In a credit default swap, one party makes a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The Fund may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of sovereign issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the Fund owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer's default. Swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from market makers and vendors and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments are included as part of interest income on the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates. Open Swap Agreements at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Futures, options and swaptions contracts: The Fund may enter into futures and/or options contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Option contracts are valued at the average of the bid and ask ("Mean Quote") established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts and options are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts and options; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. When the Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. The Fund is authorized to write swaption contracts to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and to enhance portfolio yield. Swaption contracts written by the Fund represents an option that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a previously agreed upon swap contract on a future date. If a written call option is exercised, the writer will enter a swap and is obligated to pay the fixed rate and receive a fixed rate in exchange. Swaptions are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers. When a portfolio writes a swaption, the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the swaption. Changes in the value of the swaption are reported as unrealized gains or losses in options in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Gain or loss is recognized when the swaption contract expires or is closed. Premiums received from writing swaptions that expire or are exercised are treated by the portfolio as realized gains from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase, as a realized loss. Entering into a swaption contract involves, to varying degrees, the elements of credit, market and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 PIMCO Total Return 13 IDEX PIMCO Total Return - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, associated with both option contracts and swap contracts.

The portfolio bears the market risk arising from any changes in index values or interest rates. The underlying face amounts of open futures, option, and swaption contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. The variation margin receivable is included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers four classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Currently all share classes are closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Options contracts: The Fund may enter into options contracts to manage exposure to market fluctuations. Option contracts are valued at the average of the bid and ask ("Mean Quote") established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of options; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. When the Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. The underlying face amounts of open contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Substantially all the Fund's common stocks are memo pledged as collateral by the custodian for the listed short index option contracts written by the Fund. The custodian uses the escrow receipt depository of the Options Clearing Corporation ("OCC") to effect pledging while maintaining custody of the stock positions, rather than delivering them to broker-dealers. The OCC guarantees the obligations of the contracts that they clear are fulfilled. Transactions in written call and put options were as follows: Premium Contracts* ------------ ----------- Balance at 10/31/2002 $ 1,670 727 Sales 5,880 2,682 Closing Buys (4,234) (1,937) Expirations (1,405) (729) ------- ------- Balance at 04/30/2003 $ 1,911 743 ======= ======= *Contracts not in thousands IDEX Protected Principal Stock Guarantee: The Fund's investment adviser, AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc.

Please see the Prospectus and the Statement of Additional Information for further information on the Guarantee.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Salomon All Cap 6 IDEX Salomon All Cap - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Salomon All Cap ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 1999. The fund is "non-diversified" under the 1940 Act. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions.

Transfer agency fees and expenses: The Fund pays ATIS annual per-account charges (not in thousands) of $15.39 for each open shareholder account, $2.73 for each new account opened, $1.63 for each closed account maintained, and certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Trustee may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan ("the Plan"). Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund. Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. At April 30, 2003, invested plan amounts are included in Other assets, and the total liability of $7 for deferred compensation to Trustees is included in Other liabilities. NOTE 3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the six-months ended April 30, 2003, are as follows: Purchases of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government $ 21,217 U.S. Government -- Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government 50,496 U.S. Government -- NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Salomon Investors Value 6 IDEX Salomon Investors Value - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Salomon Investors Value ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on February 2, 1997. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Conservative High-Yield Bond 8 IDEX Transamerica Conservative High-Yield Bond - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Transamerica Conservative High-Yield Bond ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on June 14, 1985. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

AUSA and WRL are a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation. AEGON USA Investments Management, Inc. and Transamerica Investment Management, LLC are both affiliates of the Fund. AEGON USA Investments Management, Inc. is the sub-adviser to the Fund. Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets ("ANA") at the following rate: 0.60% of ANA ATFA currently voluntarily waives its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit: 1.25% Expense Limit If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the advisor a portion or all of the waived advisory fees. Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions.

ATFS provides its services to the Fund at a cost and is reimbursed monthly. Transfer agency fees and expenses: The Fund pays ATIS annual per-account charges (not in thousands) of $15.39 for each open shareholder account, $2.73 for each new account opened, $1.63 for each closed account maintained, and certain out-of-pocket expenses. Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Trustee may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan ("the Plan"). Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund. Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. At April 30, 2003, invested plan amounts are included in Other assets, and the total liability of $10 deferred compensation to Trustees is included in Other liabilities. NOTE 3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the six-months ended April 30, 2003, are as follows: Purchases of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government $ 90,856 U.S. Government 1,497 Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government 22,776 U.S. Government 1,487 NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Convertible Securities 7 IDEX Transamerica Convertible Securities - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Transamerica Convertible Securities ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2002. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amounts of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded for on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2. FEES, EARNINGS CREDITS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. ("ATFA") is the Fund's investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. ("ATFS") is the Fund's administrator. AFSG Securities Corp. ("AFSG") is the Fund's distributor/principal underwriter. AEGON/Transamerica Investor Services, Inc. ("ATIS") is the Fund's transfer agent.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions.

Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund. Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. NOTE 3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the six-months ended April 30, 2003, are as follows: Purchases of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government $ 60,917 U.S. Government -- Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government 18,557 U.S. Government -- NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Equity 6 IDEX Transamerica Equity - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Transamerica Equity ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2000. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank and Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Directed Brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Directed Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the payment of operating expenses that would otherwise be borne by the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party. Directed commissions during the six-months ended April 30, 2003, of $10 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code.

The notes to the financial statements are an integral part of this report. IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Growth Opportunities 6 IDEX Transamerica Growth Opportunities - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Transamerica Growth Opportunities ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2000. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. On March 1, 2003, the Fund acquired all the net assets of IDEX Janus Capital Appreciation, pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by shareholders of IDEX Janus Capital Appreciation on February 12, 2003. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 19,786 shares of the Fund for the 8,814 shares of IDEX Janus Capital Appreciation outstanding on February 28, 2003. IDEX Janus Capital Appreciation's net assets at that date $88,560, including $11,239 unrealized depreciation, were combined with those of the Fund. Proceeds in connection with the acquisition were as follows: Shares Amount ----------- ----------- Proceeds in connection with the acquisition (amounts except shares in thousands) Class A 7,471,119 $ 33,925 Class B 8,782,161 38,948 Class C 1,584,680 7,034 Class L 63,181 280 Class M 1,885,406 8,373 -------- $ 88,560 ======== Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Directed Brokerage: The sub-adviser, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, may place security transactions of the Fund with broker/dealers with which IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Directed Brokerage Program. A Direct Brokerage Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the payment of operating expenses that would otherwise be borne by the Fund. In no event will commissions paid by the Fund be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party. Directed commissions during the six-months ended April 30, 2003, of $3 are included in net realized gains in the Statement of Operations. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are to be included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required at all times to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Growth Opportunities 7 IDEX Transamerica Growth Opportunities - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Money Market 6 IDEX Transamerica Money Market - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Transamerica Money Market ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2002. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: The securities held by the Fund are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates market value. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2. FEES, EARNINGS CREDITS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc. ("ATFA") is the Fund's investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. ("ATFS") is the Fund's administrator. AFSG Securities Corp. ("AFSG") is the Fund's distributor/principal underwriter. AEGON/Transamerica Investor Services, Inc. ("ATIS") is the Fund's transfer agent. ATIS and AFSG are 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company ("AUSA"). ATFA and ATFS are wholly owned subsidiaries of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio ("WRL"). AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation. Transamerica Investment Management, LLC is both an affiliate of the Fund and a sub-adviser to the Fund. Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets ("ANA") at the following rate: 0.40% of ANA ATFA currently voluntarily waives its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit: 0.48% Expense Limit If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the advisor a portion or all of the waived advisory fees. Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% In order to maintain a positive yield to shareholders, the Fund has waived a portion of the 12b-1 fees for all classes. The amount waived for the six-months ended April 30, 2003, was $102. Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions. For the six-months ended April 30, 2003, the underwriter commissions were as follows: Received by Underwriter $ 8 Retained by Underwriter (3) Contingent Sales Charges 493 IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Money Market 7 IDEX Transamerica Money Market - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 2-(continued) Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which include such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of trustees meeting support and other legal matters. ATFS provides its services to the Fund at a cost and is reimbursed monthly. Transfer agency fees and expenses: The Fund pays ATIS annual per-account charges (not in thousands) of $15.39 for each open shareholder account, $2.73 for each new account opened, $1.63 for each closed account maintained, and certain out-of-pocket expenses. Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Trustee may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan ("the Plan"). Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund. Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. At April 30, 2003, invested plan amounts are included in Other assets, and the total liability of $4 for deferred compensation to Trustees is included in Other liabilities. NOTE 3. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards. The aggregate cost of investments and composition of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) for federal income tax purposes as of April 30, 2003, are as follows: Federal Tax Cost Basis $ 225,597 ========== Unrealized Appreciation $ -- Unrealized (Depreciation) -- ---------- Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) $ -- ========== IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Money Market 8 IDEX Transamerica Value Balanced - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts except share amounts in thousands) (unaudited) Principal Value - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS (9.6%) U.S. Treasury Bond (d) 3.63%, due 03/31/2004 $ 1,250 $ 1,278 3.50%, due 11/15/2006 (b) 1,250 1,303 4.00%, due 11/15/2012 (b) 200 203 --------- Total U.S. Government Obligations (cost: $2,655) 2,784 --------- U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCY OBLIGATIONS (4.5%) Freddie Mac-Gold Pool 7.00%, due 10/01/2028 406 428 6.50%, due 04/01/2029 423 442 Ginnie Mae-FHA/VA Pool 6.50%, due 10/15/2027 421 444 --------- Total U.S. Government Agency Obligations (cost: $1,317) 1,314 --------- CORPORATE DEBT SECURITIES (20.1%) Amusement & Recreation Services (0.9%) Disney (Walt) Company (The) 4.88%, due 07/02/2004 250 258 Business Credit Institutions (0.9%) Deere (John) Capital Corporation 3.90%, due 01/15/2008 250 255 Chemicals & Allied Products (0.9%) Dow Chemical Company (The) 5.25%, due 05/14/2004 250 258 Commercial Banks (2.4%) Abbey National PLC (f) 7.35%, due 10/29/2049 250 277 CS First Boston-144A (g) 7.90%, due 05/01/2007 125 139 Korea Development Bank (The) (b) 5.50%, due 11/13/2012 250 257 Computer & Office Equipment (0.9%) Hewlett-Packard Company 5.50%, due 07/01/2007 250 269 Department Stores (0.5%) J.C.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 Transamerica Value Balanced 8 IDEX Transamerica Value Balanced - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX Transamerica Value Balanced ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on October 1, 1995. In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amounts of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Option contracts: The Fund may enter into options contracts to manage exposure to market fluctuations. Option contracts are valued at the average of the bid and ask ("Mean Quote") established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of the options contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms.

Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund.

Rowe Price Health Sciences - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX T. Rowe Price Health Sciences ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 2002. The Fund is "non-diversified" under the 1940 Act. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received. Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Forward foreign currency contracts: The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in market value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are closed a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. Option contracts: The Fund may enter into option contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Option contracts are valued at the average of the bid and ask ("Mean Quote") established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures options; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. When the Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. The underlying face amounts of any open option contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 T.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 T. Rowe Price Small Cap 9 IDEX T. Rowe Price Small Cap - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX T. Rowe Price Small Cap ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 1999. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Futures contracts: The Fund may enter into futures contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. The underlying face amounts of open futures contracts at April 30, 2003, are listed in the Schedule of Investments. The variation margin receivable is included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 T. Rowe Price Small Cap 10 IDEX T. Rowe Price Small Cap - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1-(continued) Liabilities. Variation margin represents the excess deposits made in order to maintain the equity account at the required margin level. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. NOTE 2. FEES, EARNINGS CREDITS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AEGON/Transamerica Fund Adviser, Inc. ("ATFA") is the Fund's investment adviser. AEGON/Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. ("ATFS") is the Fund's administrator. AFSG Securities Corp. ("AFSG") is the Fund's distributor/principal underwriter. AEGON/Transamerica Investor Services, Inc. ("ATIS") is the Fund's transfer agent. ATIS and AFSG are 100% owned by AUSA Holding Company ("AUSA"). ATFA and ATFS are wholly owned subsidiaries of Western Reserve Life Assurance Co. of Ohio ("WRL"). AUSA and WRL are wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation. Investment advisory fees: The Fund pays management fees to ATFA based on average daily net assets ("ANA") at the following stated break points: 0.80% of the first $500 million of ANA 0.70% of ANA over $500 million ATFA currently voluntarily waives its advisory fee and will reimburse the Fund to the extent that operating expenses, excluding 12b-1 fees, exceed the following stated annual limit: 1.40% Expense Limit If total fund expenses fall below the annual expense limitations agreed to by the adviser within the succeeding three years, the Fund may be required to pay the advisor a portion or all of the waived advisory fees. Distribution and service fees: The Fund has a 12b-1 distribution plan under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Fund. The 12b-1 fee for the Fund is comprised of a 0.25% service fee and the remaining amount is an asset-based sales charge/distribution fee. The Fund is authorized under the 12b-1 plan to pay fees on each class up to the following limits: Class A 0.35% Class B 1.00% Class C 1.00% Class L 1.00% Class M 0.90% Underwriter commissions relate to front-end sales charges imposed for Class A and M shares and contingent deferred sales charges from Classes B, L, M and certain A share redemptions. For the six-months ended April 30, 2003, the underwriter commissions were as follows: Received by Underwriter $ 21 Retained by Underwriter -- Contingent Sales Charges 12 Administrative services: The Fund has entered into an agreement with ATFS for financial and legal fund administration services, which include such items as compliance, expenses, financial statements and other reporting, distributions, tax returns, prospectus preparation, board of trustees meeting support and other legal matters. ATFS provides its services to the Fund at a cost and is reimbursed monthly. Transfer agency fees and expenses: The Fund pays ATIS annual per-account charges (not in thousands) of $15.39 for each open shareholder account, $2.73 for each new account opened, $1.63 for each closed account maintained, and certain out-of-pocket expenses. Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible Fund Trustee may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan ("the Plan"). Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. These deferred amounts may be invested in any IDEX Fund. Contributions made under the Plan and appreciation (depreciation) and income of Plan assets are included in Trustees fees and expenses. At April 30, 2003, invested plan amounts are included in Other assets, and the total liability of $1 for deferred compensation to Trustees is included in Other liabilities. NOTE 3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS The cost of securities purchased and proceeds from securities sold (excluding short-term securities) for the six-months ended April 30, 2003, are as follows: Purchases of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government $ 3,061 U.S. Government -- Proceeds from maturities and sales of securities: Long-Term excluding U.S. Government 4,715 U.S. Government -- NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS The Fund has not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to its policy to distribute all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders and otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 T. Rowe Price Tax-Efficient Growth 7 IDEX T. Rowe Price Tax-Efficient Growth - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At April 30, 2003 (all amounts in thousands) (unaudited) NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES IDEX Mutual Funds is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company. IDEX T. Rowe Price Tax-Efficient Growth ("the Fund"), part of IDEX Mutual Funds, began operations on March 1, 1999. In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. Multiple class operations and expenses: The Fund currently offers five classes of shares, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Effective November 11, 2002, Class C and M shares were closed to new investors. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses. The following policies were consistently followed by the Fund, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In preparing the Fund's financial statements in accordance with GAAP, estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Security valuations: Fund investments traded on an exchange are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities are valued by independent pricing services; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market. Other securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value determined in such a manner as the adviser and sub-adviser, under the supervision of the Board of Trustees and the Fund's Valuation Committee, determine in good faith. Cash: The Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT"). IBT has been contracted on behalf of the Fund to invest the excess cash into a savings account, which at April 30, 2003, was paying an interest rate of 1.00%. Securities lending: The Fund may lend securities to enhance fund earnings from investing cash collateral received in making such loans to qualified borrowers (typically broker/dealers). The Fund has engaged its custodian bank, IBT, as a lending agent to administer its securities lending program. IBT earns a portion of program net income for its services. When the Fund makes a security loan, it receives cash collateral as protection against the risk that the borrower will default on the loan, and records an asset for the cash invested collateral and a liability for the return of the collateral. Securities on loan are included in investment securities at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and remain on the Schedule of Investments. Loans of securities are required to be secured by collateral at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities at inception of the loan, and not less then 100% thereafter. The Fund may invest cash collateral in short-term money market instruments including: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. agency obligations, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, repurchase agreements and other highly rated, liquid investments. During the life of securities loans, the collateral and securities loaned remain subject to fluctuation in market value. IBT marks to market securities loaned and the collateral each business day. If additional collateral is due (at least $1), IBT collects additional cash collateral from the borrowers. Although securities loaned will be fully collateralized at all times, IBT may experience delays in, or may be prevented from, recovering the collateral on behalf of the Fund. The Fund may recall a loaned security position at any time from the borrower through IBT. In the event the borrower fails to timely return a recalled security, IBT may indemnify the Fund by purchasing replacement securities for the Fund at its own expense and claiming the collateral to fund such a purchase. IBT absorbs the loss if the collateral value is not sufficient to cover the cost of the replacement securities. If replacement securities are not available, IBT will credit the equivalent cash value to the Fund. Income from securities lending is included in the Statement of Operations. The amount of collateral and market value of securities on loan are included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as well as on the Schedule of Investments. Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded for on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date. Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in market value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on IDEX Mutual Funds Semi-Annual Report 2003 T.

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions, including unanticipated movements in exchange currency rates, the degree of government supervision and regulation of security markets, and the possibility of political or economic instability. Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. The Fund at April 30, 2003 had no dividend distributions. NOTE 2. FEES, EARNINGS CREDITS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AEGON/Transamerica Fund Advisers, Inc.
