LETTER FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER

Dear Fellow Shareholders;

PERFORMANCE

This report covers the Portfolio's activities for its 2003 fiscal year ended
May 31st. During the past 12 months, there was ample economic news that roiled
the security markets. The war, fears of a depression, unemployment, and issues
of corporate governance occupied the media and the investment community. Among
the most pronounced changes were the minimal returns offered by fixed income
investments that in turn make equity investments, particularly The Jensen
Portfolio, even more attractive.

As much as we were pleased with the business performance of the companies in
the Portfolio, we were displeased with the market performance of the Portfolio.
The Portfolio's average annual total returns for the years ending on May 31st,
after deducting expenses, is shown in the table below.



               1-           2-           3-           4-          5-          10-
              Year         Year         Year         Year        Year        Year

S&P 500       -8.06        -11.00       -10.85       -5.93      -1.07        9.93

Variance       +.89         +9.67        +9.90      +11.47      +8.53       +1.01


The "Variance" line is significant because we believe it gives credence to our
strategy of owning companies that can sustain their competitive advantages. On
the other hand, as every shareholder understands, the purpose of investing is
to obtain positive returns. After three successive years of market
disappointments, the inevitable return to positive ground will be all the
sweeter.

Our positive variance with the S&P 500 regularly invokes questions. Since our
practice is to buy a qualified company at a fair price and own the company as
the market reflects its increasing value, the question centers upon the
differences between the Index and the Portfolio. The S&P 500 is a list of
stocks designed by McGraw Hill to emulate the price of 500 large companies
doing business across a variety of industries. To own an index fund is to
accept that you will receive market returns by representation in sectors that
are hot (currently technology and home building) as well as sectors that are
cold (utilities, consumer staples). An index has no objective other than
accepting what the market gods deliver. The Jensen Portfolio, on the other
hand, represents our best efforts in selecting approximately 25 companies whose
businesses will consistently perform well, year in and year out, at very high
levels. We do not try to catch cyclical businesses that may be on the edge of
rebounding, nor businesses that might become popular with other investment
managers. As much as we would enjoy trouncing the S&P 500 every day and every
year, we will not misuse our strategy with the idea of outfoxing an index.

This is an appropriate point to deliver an investment manager's equivalent of a
football coach's halftime pep talk. We remain excited about the business
prospects of each company in the Portfolio. It is important to remember, as we
describe below, some companies have the ability to enhance shareholder value in
the doldrums of an economic cycle. Just when positive market returns will be
reported requires a crystal ball less cloudy than ours. (Ours has always proved
to be cloudy.) Fortunately, we have Sir John Templeton's comment to fall back
on, "History shows that time, not timing, is the key to investment success.
Therefore, the best time to buy stocks is when you have money."


CREATING VALUE


In retrospect, foul economic weather often gives strong companies an
opportunity to create higher future values for shareholders. One such company
in the Portfolio is Automatic Data Processing. ADP's largest business is
payroll processing whose performance thrives on increasing employment


- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jensen Portfolio
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and higher interest rates, neither of which currently sport attractive numbers.
ADP's second largest business is servicing the investment industry, another
business clearly not enjoying the best of times.

For most of this year we have expected that ADP will report slightly lower
earnings during its fiscal year ending June 30th than the year before. This
will end an awesome streak of 41 consecutive years of their reporting double
digit increases in earnings. We further expect slightly lower earnings for the
next two quarters. The stock's price reflects all this of course.

Nonetheless, we believe ADP will generate record amounts of free cash flow per
share this year and next. The company is using this cash for the benefit of
shareholders: it has announced acquisitions and joint ventures in businesses
they know well and that will increase market share; dividends have been
increased for the 28th consecutive year; shares are being bought back; and
other assets are being acquired at favorable rates.

The fact is that ADP's intrinsic value per share continues to increase at
record-breaking rates, although its market price reflects the company's
lackluster immediate prospects. Having already declared our crystal ball to be
hopelessly clouded, we don't know when employment and interest rates will rise.
With ADP, we do not believe it matters.


STRATEGY

Although the market changes daily and seems to pursue one siren after another,
the strategy employed in the Jensen Portfolio does not change.

The strategy's objective is single-minded: to identify companies that have the
greatest likelihood of being consistently successful between now, 2012, and
beyond. We begin by looking for companies that have reported at least a 15
percent return on equity (ROE) each year for the past decade. Studies show that
companies meeting this hurdle have an advantage over competitors, and it is
likely that their management will do everything they can to sustain that
advantage. It turns out that having an edge over your competitors is good for
profits, for employees, for suppliers, for customers and, over time, good for
the stock price.

This ROE hurdle diminishes the number of possible candidates for the Portfolio
to about 110 companies. These 110 companies consist of large cap, small cap,
technology, service and manufacturing businesses--some of the characteristics
they have in common are entry barriers such as unique products or economies of
scale, and focused product lines.

Since a company is worth the present value of all its future cash flows, we use
our projection of future cash flows to calculate its intrinsic or true business
value. To illustrate, in order to pay a reasonable price for Stryker, for
example, we must have an idea of what the company would be worth if there were
no stock market. We wish to add a caveat here. This calculation includes our
presumption of future inflation, interest and earnings growth rates. Although
we consider various outside sources for this data, our intrinsic value
calculation is an estimate, albeit our best one.

The next step, and the first time that market value comes into consideration,
is to compare per share intrinsic value to market value. If we can acquire
shares at less than 60 cents of market value to each dollar of intrinsic value,
only then do we consider the company eligible for purchase.

The list is pared the final time to approximately 25 companies that we use in
the Portfolio. While there is no single criterion for their selection, having a
strong business franchise is at the top of the list.

Our sell strategy is quite simple. If a company fails to report a 15 percent
ROE, it's sold. Similarly if a company's market price should rise above
intrinsic value, its shares will be liquidated.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jensen Portfolio
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We do not expect the stock market performance of the Portfolio over time to
exceed the business performance of its companies. In other words, we do not
expect a company that increases earnings at a 10 percent clip annually to
increase in market value by more than 10 percent. Unfortunately, using the past
three years as evidence, market and business values do not march in lock
step--a failing that is corrected by Sir John's observations on time, not
timing.

DR. PERRY

To long-time shareholders of the Portfolio, the name of Louis B. Perry is both
familiar and meaningful. As a director from its inception to his retirement,
Dr. Perry faithfully represented the fund's shareholders. He never sought the
popular answer to the many issues faced but, rather, the best answer for
shareholders. He knows how to think as a shareholder, if for no other reason,
because he holds a significant number of the Portfolio's shares.

So it is with pleasure that we announce that he has been lured out of
retirement to rejoin the Board. The only condition to Dr. Perry's engagement is
that it is short term--he expects a replacement before long. Any lack of
activity to replace him will be like a coach with a NBA-quality player--the use
of any artifice to keep him in college.

He joins Norm Achen, a director since inception, Bob Harold and Roger Cooke as
independent directors. It is worth noting here that the scope of the
independent directors responsibilities has expanded significantly in recent
months. The most notable example is their responsibility as the audit committee
for the Portfolio.

Among the outside directors, the Portfolio has met current regulations by
having a "financial expert" and exceeded current requirements by having
independent directors comprise two-thirds of the Board.

FREDDIE MAC

In the week following the end of the Portfolio's fiscal year, Freddie Mac's
Board announced the resignation two top officers and the dismissal of another.
Gregory Parseghian, a widely respected veteran in the industry, was named CEO,
and Shaun O'Malley, retired Chairman of Price Waterhouse, became Freddie Mac's
independent chairman.

All this suddenly materialized and, with much credit to Freddie Mac's Board,
was quickly addressed. It had been known since earlier this year that
PricewaterhouseCoopers, who had replaced the now defunct Arthur Andersen as the
company's auditors, disagreed with the accounting treatment Freddie Mac was
using for the treatment of derivatives. As a result, Freddie Mac will have to
restate the past three years earnings and will be unable to report first and
second quarter earnings on a timely basis. The company has announced that the
review will be completed sometime during the third calendar quarter.

This, however, will not be the typical earnings restatement because the prior
three years' earnings will be restated upwards--more earnings, not less. The
replacement of the top officers, we understand, did not involve accounting
issues. David Glenn, the former chief operating officer, was dismissed because
he refused to hand over his diaries in an unadulterated form. The other two
officers resigned.

In spite of the clamor, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae provide significant benefits
for home ownership and the housing industry. Their debt instruments continue to
be highly regarded both in the US and abroad. Industry followers expect the
result of Freddie Mac's reaudit will be increased regulation that would, in
turn, only increase their acceptability as investments. The company's financial
soundness can be represented by Freddie Mac's risk-based capital of $26.5
Billion--only $5.2 Billion is required.


                                                                               3


- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Jensen Portfolio
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In his initial comments to investors and analysts, Mr. Parseghian said "We are
blessed with a great franchise in the largest financing market, in the largest
economy, in the world. The housing market has been our economy's most powerful
engine of growth for some time. This is a business in which we have and will
continue to succeed."

In closing, we wish to welcome our new shareholders and express our
appreciation to those investors that have stayed the course. Warren Buffett has
commented that companies inevitably get the kind of shareholders they desire.
By concentrating on hitting quarterly earnings targets, a company will get
short term investors, who are costly and encourage volatility. We believe
management's primary focus should be in increasing the value of the enterprise
over time. We are pleased with the responses we've received from investors who
are committed to long-term ownership, because it matches the objectives of the
Portfolio.

Thank you for your support,


/s/Val Jensen

The Jensen Portfolio, Inc. (the "Fund") was organized as an Oregon Corporation
on April 17, 1992, and is registered as an open-end, nondiversified management
investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The principal
investment objective of the Fund is long-term capital appreciation. The Fund
issued and sold 10,000 shares of its capital stock at $10 per share on June 29,
1992 ("initial shares"). The Fund commenced operations on August 3, 1992.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

a) Investment Valuation - Securities that are listed on United States stock
exchanges or the Nasdaq Stock Market are valued at the last sale price on the
day the securities are valued or, if there has been no sale on that day, at
their current bid price. Quotations are taken from the market in which the
security is primarily traded. Over-the-counter securities are valued at their
current bid price. Securities for which market quotations are not readily
available are valued at fair value as determined by the Investment Adviser at
or under the direction of the Fund's Board of Directors. There were no
securities valued by the Board of Directors as of May 31, 2003. Variable rate
demand notes are valued at cost which approximates fair value. Notwithstanding
the above, fixed-income securities may be valued on the basis of prices
provided by an established pricing service when the Board believes that such
prices better reflect market values.

b) Federal Income Taxes - No provision for federal income taxes has been made
since the Fund has complied to date with the provisions of the Internal Revenue
Code applicable to regulated investment companies and intends to continue to so
comply in the future and to distribute substantially all of its net investment
income and realized capital gains in order to relieve the Fund from all federal
income taxes.

c) Distributions to Shareholders - Dividends to shareholders are recorded on
ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid
quarterly by the Fund. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any,
will be declared and paid at least annually. Income and capital gain
distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which
may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Permanent differences
between financial reporting and tax are reclassified to capital stock.

d) Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

e) Guarantees and Indemnifications - In the normal course of business the Fund
enters into contracts with service providers that contain general
indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements
is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the
Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects
the risk of loss to be remote.

f) Other - Investment and shareholder transactions are recorded on trade date.
Gains or losses from the investment transactions are determined on the basis of
identified carrying value. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend
date and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. The Fund has
investments in short-term variable rate demand notes, which are unsecured
instruments. These notes may present credit risk to the extent the issuer
defaults on its payment obligation. The credit-worthiness of the issuer is
monitored, and these notes are considered to present minimal credit risk in the
opinion of the Investment Adviser.

3. Investment Transactions
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The aggregate purchases and sales of securities, excluding short-term
investments, by the Fund for the year ended May 31, 2003, were $1,040,552,226
and $62,218,117, respectively.

4. Income Taxes
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At May 31, 2003, the Fund had accumulated net realized capital loss carryovers
of $767,052 expiring in 2010. To the extent the Fund realizes future net
capital gains, taxable distributions to its shareholders will be offset by any
unused capital loss carryover. During 2003, the fund utilized $294,579 of
capital loss carryovers.

Net realized losses differ for financial statement and tax purposes primarily
due to differing treatments of wash sales.

The distributions of $4,123,525 paid during the year ended May 31, 2003 were
classified as ordinary for income tax purposes.

At May 31, 2003, the cost of investments, net unrealized appreciation
(depreciation), undistributed ordinary income and undistributed long term
capital gains for income tax purposes were as follows:

                                                  ==============


5. Line of Credit
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Fund has a $100 million revolving credit facility for temporary emergency
purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might
require the untimely disposition of securities. The interest rate on the
outstanding principal amount is equal to the prime rate less 1/2%. The Fund
borrowed on the line of credit on nineteen days, with average borrowing during
the period of $4,454,516. The agreement will expire on December 21, 2003.

6. Investment Advisory and Other
   Agreements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Fund has entered into an Investment Advisory and Service Contract with
Jensen Investment Management, Inc. Pursuant to its advisory agreement with the
Fund, the Investment Adviser is entitled to receive a fee, calculated daily and
payable monthly, at the annual rate of 0.50% as applied to the Fund's daily net
assets.

Certain officers and directors of the Fund are also officers and directors of
the Investment Adviser.

7. Expense Guarantee
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In order to limit the Fund's expenses, the Investment Adviser has guaranteed
that certain expenses payable by the Fund (including, but not limited to,
investment advisory fees, legal, audit, custodial, printing and other


                                                                              11


- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

regular Fund expenses, but excluding brokerage commissions, taxes, interest,
organizational costs and other expenses that are capitalized, and all
extraordinary items such as litigation or indemnification expenses) will not
exceed 1.40% in any fiscal year. If the Fund's regular operating expenses
exceed 1.40% (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets on an
annual basis), the Investment Adviser will reduce its management fee, or
reimburse the Fund, in an amount equal to the excess.

Any waiver or reimbursement is subject to later adjustment to allow the
Investment Adviser to recoup amounts waived or reimbursed to the extent actual
fees and expenses for a period are less than the expense limitation cap of
1.40%, provided, however, that the Investment Adviser shall only be entitled to
recoup such amounts for a period of three years from the date such amount was
waived or reimbursed.

8. Distribution and Shareholder
   Servicing
- -------------------------------------
The Fund has adopted a distribution plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940
Act (the "12b-1 Plan"), which provides that the Fund may reimburse the Fund's
distributor or others at an annual rate of up to 0.10% of the average daily net
assets attributable to its shares. Payments under the 12b-1 Plan shall be used
to compensate or reimburse the Fund's distributor or others for services
provided and expenses incurred are tied in connection with the sale of shares
and to the amounts of actual expenses incurred.

In addition, the Fund has adopted a Shareholder Services Plan the "Services
Plan" under which the Fund can pay for shareholder support services from the
Fund's assets pursuant to a Shareholder Servicing Agreement in an amount not to
exceed 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Pending Shareholder vote at a meeting scheduled for July 14, 2003, the Fund
proposes to adopt an Amended and Restated Distribution and Shareholder
Servicing Plan for the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The
Restated Distribution Plan would replace the existing Distribution Plan and
Servicing Plan by essentially combining them into one plan with annual expenses
for distribution and shareholder servicing not exceeding 0.25% of the Fund's
average daily net assets.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the Directors and Shareholders of The Jensen Portfolio, Inc.
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of The Jensen Portfolio, Inc. (the
Fund) at May 31, 2003, the results of its operations for the year then ended,
the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then
ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period
then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as financial statements) are the responsibility of the
Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at May 31,
2003 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
