PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Dear Shareholder:

I am pleased to present the combined Annual Report for the WesMark Funds. This report covers the 12-month period from February 1, 2002 through January 31, 2003. It gives you a complete picture of each fund's operation, beginning with each portfolio manager's overview of the market and fund strategy, followed by a complete list of fund holdings and the financial statements.

The following is a summary of fund activity over the 12-month reporting period, which saw continued positive performance for bonds, and a weak environment for stocks.

WesMark Small Company Growth Fund is managed to help your money pursue capital appreciation through a diversified portfolio of common stocks of small-sized companies with above-average potential for price appreciation.1 The reporting period saw difficult market conditions continue for small company stocks, which caused the value of the fund's holdings to decline. As a result, the fund produced a (negative) total return of (31.16)%.2 On the last day of the reporting period, the fund's net assets totaled $13.7 million.

WesMark Growth Fund is managed to help your money grow over time though a diversified portfolio of stocks selected for their long-term potential to provide above-average returns. At the end of the reporting period, the fund's holdings included such well-known names as American Express, AOL Time Warner, BP Amoco, Cisco Systems, General Mills, General Motors, Intel, PepsiCo, Pfizer, General Electric, and Wal-Mart. During the reporting period difficult market conditions for growth stocks caused the value of the fund's holdings to decline. As a result, the fund produced a (negative) total return of (22.40)%.2 On the last day of the reporting period, the fund's net assets were $185.1 million.

WesMark Balanced Fund pursues capital appreciation and income by investing in a diversified portfolio of stocks and bonds. At the end of the reporting period, 69.4% of the fund's portfolio was invested primarily in high-quality common and preferred stocks. The rest of the portfolio was invested primarily across U.S. government agency bonds and investment-grade corporate bonds. During the reporting period, the fund paid monthly income dividends totaling $0.18 per share. A difficult market for stocks caused the value of the fund's stock holdings to decline. As a result, the fund produced a (negative) (16.87)% total return.2 At the end of the reporting period, the fund's net assets totaled $58.8 million.

WesMark Bond Fund is managed to help your money earn a high level of current income by investing in a diversified portfolio of high-quality bonds. At the end of the reporting period, the $168.6 million fund was invested primarily across government agency bonds and investment-grade corporate bonds. During the reporting period, the fund paid monthly income dividends totaling $0.39 per share while the net asset value increased by $0.03. The income distributions and net asset value increase resulted in a 4.27% total return.2

WESMARK FUNDS
PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

WesMark West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund is managed to help your money earn income free from federal income tax and West Virginia state income tax.3 To pursue that objective, it invests in a portfolio of high-quality bonds issued by West Virginia municipalities. During the reporting period, the fund paid double tax-free income dividends totaling $0.39 per share. The fund's net asset value increased by $0.22 per share. Through the distributions and net asset value increase, the fund produced a positive total return of 6.04%.2 At the end of the reporting period, the fund's net assets totaled $71.0 million.

WESMARK SMALL COMPANY GROWTH FUND
INVESTMENT REVIEW

Smaller companies were more severely impacted by the downturn in the U. S. economy than were larger companies. The technology sector, in particular, experienced a major decline in profitability, which began in 2001 and intensified last year. Stock prices for small company growth stocks were equally devastated. The NASDAQ Composite Index1 declined by 74.4% from March 31, 2000 through September 30, 2002, with a decline of 39.9% in the first nine months of 2002. This decline is nearly unprecedented and erased almost all of the advance in this index from December 1996 to March 2000. For the year ending January 31, 2003, the WesMark Small Company Growth Fund produced a (negative) total return of (31.16)%,2 as compared to a decline in the Russell 2000 Index3 of 21.87%, and a decline in the Lipper Small Cap Growth Fund Average4 of 29.46%. The portfolio's representation in the technology and telecommunications sectors, particularly in the early part of the year, was in part responsible for the rate of return being below these benchmarks.

Corporate profits are expected to increase by 8% this year. Traditionally, smaller companies are more impacted by business cycles than larger companies.5 We believe that this pattern will repeat in the future, and, therefore, smaller-cap stocks may report a larger percentage improvement in earnings. However, the tax proposal by the Bush Administration may benefit larger companies more than smaller companies, particularly those that pay dividends. Eventually, however, improving investor confidence will impact small companies as well, and, considering the severe decline in prices in this sector of the market the past three years, there may be ultimately a magnified positive impact on smaller stocks as a result of improving psychology related to economic recovery and investor confidence.

We have re-allocated assets within the fund in an effort to improve the rate of return. Healthcare stocks increased from 3.1% at January 31, 2002 to 10.9% at January 31, 2003, consumer stocks increased from 5.5% to 10.5%, basic materials stocks increased from 8.3% to 10.7% and energy stocks rose from 13.6% to 14.6%. Technology declined from 38.4% at January 31, 2002 to 29.0% at year-end. We do anticipate that technology will continue to provide long-term growth opportunities. This long-term focus will at times encourage us to maintain investments in stocks that may be encountering difficulty if we believe the company's products or services have features that are superior to peers and if we believe that the segment may grow faster than technology spending.

WESMARK GROWTH FUND
INVESTMENT REVIEW

Corporate profits suffered a severe decline last year. A series of corporate failures cast doubt on corporate governance and the accounting profession. The stock market suffered a third consecutive annual decline. This is only the third such occurrence in the past 80 years. The Standard and Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500)1 declined 45.6% in price from March 2000 to September 2002, with a decline of 29% in the first nine months of 2002. This ranks among the most severe declines in our history. The decline in reported corporate profits was somewhat unique since the U.S. Gross Domestic Product rose during the year by an estimated 2.4%.

We believe that profits began to recover in the last half of 2002 and are expected to rise by about 8% this year. Corporate balance sheets are being repaired as cash flows rise, while capital spending remains subdued. President Bush's proposed tax legislation may have a very positive impact on stock prices in the year ahead.

The U.S. economy is expected to have continued moderate growth with low inflation. This environment is conducive to expanding price-earnings ratios; however, geo-political risks and the impact of asset allocation shifts by the public in order to reduce perceived equity risk may restrain stock prices.

The S&P 500 return for the fiscal year was (negative) (23.02)%, while the Growth Fund return was (negative) (22.40)%2 , based on net asset value. For the latest three years, the fund's annual return was (negative) (7.0)% as compared to the S&P 500 return of (negative) (13.8)%. This return compares very favorably with other large-cap core funds. In the Lipper universe of large-cap core funds,3 the Growth Fund ranked 2 out of 502 funds for five years, 20 out of 743 funds for three years, and 239 out of 960 funds for one year as of January 31, 2003.

The asset allocation in the fund remained focused on energy, which was 14.4%, technology, which was 21.1%, financial services, which was 13.5%, and pharmaceuticals and bio-technology, which was 17.9% at year-end. We believe these sectors offer the best opportunities for earnings growth in the year ahead. These groups of stocks are trading at relatively low price-earnings ratios. We believe that when investor confidence is restored, companies with positive earnings prospects trading at low price-earnings ratios could appreciate more than the market average.

WESMARK BALANCED FUND
INVESTMENT REVIEW

Continued weakness in the equity market, which has experienced its third consecutive annual decline in value; impacted the total return of the fund as the decision to maintain the equity weighting above 60%, to benefit from a stronger economy and a recovery in corporate earnings, proved premature. We continue to believe that long-term the portfolio will benefit from this structure as the economy continues to show signs of recovery and as geo-political event risk is reduced. Corporate profits began to show signs of recovery in the later part of 2002. Balance sheets are improving aided by rising cash flows and reduced expenditures.

The Federal Reserve Board (Fed) continued to lower interest rates in an effort to strengthen the economy. This has not met with the planned result to date. Corporate bond yields rose in response to additional corporate governance issues and the failure of some larger, well-known companies. Credit rating downgrades contributed to liquidity concerns for a number of companies. U.S. Treasury and federal agency issues responded favorably to Fed action and investors' desire for reduced risk. The fixed income sector of the portfolio reduced its risk structure by both shortening its average maturity and duration and improving the overall quality through the purchase of additional federal agency notes.1

The effects of both fiscal and monetary policy should serve to provide the economy with the necessary stimulus to ignite corporate growth rates, stimulate corporate spending and enhance valuation levels resulting in improved returns for investors.

The fund had a (negative) total return of (16.87)%2 for the 12 months ended January 31, 2002, based on net asset value, compared to (12.15)% for the Lipper Balanced Funds Average.3 The current portfolio structure and asset and industry allocation should benefit from the expected economic recovery as we move forward. Progress on the proposed tax legislation to include favorable treatment of dividend payments could provide benefit to a number of the holdings in the portfolio.

WESMARK BOND FUND
INVESTMENT REVIEW

The U.S. economy experienced moderate growth with declining inflation during 2002. The Federal Reserve Board continued to lower interest rates to stimulate the economy, as the stock market experienced its third consecutive decline. The bond market was impacted by a series of corporate failures, which cast doubt on corporate governance and the accounting profession. The rating agencies had a busy year with credit downgrades. As a result, corporate bond yield spreads rose significantly during the first nine months of the year but began to contract sharply in the fourth quarter. This decline in perceived risk in the fourth quarter was related to the positive impact of the Sarbanes-Oxley legislation, as well as the beginnings of an improvement in corporate profitability and restructuring of balance sheets to reduce debt levels.

Government spending is continuing to rise rapidly resulting in sharply increasing budget deficits. The trade-weighted value of the dollar has been declining for the past twelve months. The housing market has been surprisingly strong, and consumer spending has grown consistently faster than consensus forecasts. We think these factors will result in a change in focus in the bond market from deflation to the possibility of reflation. We believe that inflation, which was declining for the past several years, has reached a cyclical low, and we anticipate that the inflation rate will stabilize for the early part of the year and show a slightly higher inflation rate in the second half of the year.

In this environment, we have greatly reduced the fund's average duration from 5.29% to 3.21%.1 This was accomplished by reducing corporate bonds from 56.9% of the fund to 31.9% of the fund at year-end and replacing the issues sold with short-term callable government agency securities. These changes in the fund had an impact on the total return during the year. The fund's total return for fiscal 2002 was 4.27%, based on net asset value.2 This compares to 7.63% for the Lipper Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds Average3 and 9.26% for the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Credit Index.4 We believe that today's interest rate levels do not reflect fundamental economic forces, but are a response to the decline in stock prices over the past three years and to the current geo-political risks. As a result, we have positioned the fund in a defensive posture in order to preserve the net asset value in an expected rising interest rate environment in the year ahead.

WESMARK WEST VIRGINIA MUNICIPAL BOND FUND
INVESTMENT REVIEW

The twelve months ended January 31, 2003 was a challenging period for fixed income investors. Strong economic growth in the first quarter of 2002 gave way by the third quarter, which prompted the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed") to lower the federal funds target rate by 0.50% in November. The action taken by the Fed was intended to prevent the U.S. economy from dipping back into a recession. Investors' reluctance to invest in stocks has resulted in an extraordinary build up in cash in money market funds and savings accounts. During the course of the year, yields on municipal securities with maturities of less than five years declined more than 0.75%, while longer maturities declined by less than 0.50%, creating a relatively steep yield curve.

State and local government budgets in most regions of the country came under pressure during the past year. West Virginia, due to its heavy dependence on cyclical industries, saw its unemployment rate rise faster than the national level. Budget cuts and the state's "rainy day fund" provided relief and allowed West Virginia to maintain its credit rating. The budget strain experienced by the state and its municipalities had little impact on bond yields in West Virginia versus other states. This can be attributed to the limited supply of tax-free bonds issued by the state and its political subdivisions. Statistics compiled by Thompson Financial Investment Banking/Capital Markets lists West Virginia as 46th out of fifty states based on the number of municipal debt securities issued for 2002.

The primary investment strategy has been to reduce the fund's duration in order to preserve gains achieved over the past two years as market yields declined.1 Also of importance was a strategy to reduce exposure to non-insured securities that experienced a decline in their credit rating. Specifically, issues backed by corporations involved in the energy and chemical industries, along with bonds issued by the hospital sector, were sold. This strategy along with the rising unit price has the effect of reducing the effective yield of the fund during the year.

The fund provided a total return of 6.04%, based on net asset value, for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2003.2 The income return for the year was $0.39 and 100% of the income was exempt from federal and state income tax for West Virginia residents.3 The 30-day taxable equivalent yield for West Virginia residents in the 27% tax bracket was 3.44%.4 As of January 31, 2003, the 30-day SEC yield was 2.51%. As of January 31, 2003, we continued to focus on high quality bonds with 65.5% of the fund invested in bonds rated AAA.5

3 Income may be subject to the alternative minimum tax.

(a) Based on net asset value, which does not reflect the sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge, if applicable.

(b) This voluntary expense decrease is reflected in both the expense and the net investment income (net operating loss) ratios shown.

(c) Reflects operations for the period from August 8, 2000 (date of initial public investment) to January 31, 2001.

(d) Computed on an annualized basis.

(e) Reflects operations for the period from April 20, 1998 (date of initial public investment) to January 31, 1999.

(f) Amount represents less than $0.01.

(g) As required effective February 1, 2001, the Fund adopted the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium and discount on debt securities. For the year ended January 31, 2002, this change increased the net investment income per share by 0.01, decreased net realized gain per share by 0.01, and increased the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 4.32% to 4.36%. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for the periods prior to February 1, 2001, have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.

WESMARK FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

January 31, 2003

(1) Organization

WesMark Funds (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of five portfolios (individually referred to as the "Fund", or collectively as the "Funds") which are presented herein:

 

Portfolio Name

Investment Objective

 

 

WesMark Small Company Growth Fund ("Small Company Growth Fund")

WesMark Growth Fund ("Growth Fund")

WesMark Balanced Fund ("Balanced Fund")

WesMark West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund ("West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund")

 

non-diversified

 

to achieve current income which is exempt from federal income tax and income taxes imposed by the State of West Virginia

 

The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held.

(2) Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

Investment Valuation--U.S. government securities, listed corporate bonds, and other fixed income and asset-backed securities are generally valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked price as furnished by an independent pricing service. Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees").

Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions--Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value.

Premium and Discount Amortization/Paydown Gains and Losses--All premiums and discount on fixed income securities are amortized/accreted for financial statement purposes.

Change in Accounting Policy--Effective February 1, 2001, the West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund adopted the provisions of the revised AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies (the "Guide"). For financial statement purposes, the revised Guide requires the West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund to amortize premium and discount on all fixed income securities.

Upon initial adoption, the West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund adjusted its cost of fixed income securities by the cumulative amount of amortization that would have been recognized had amortization been in effect from the purchase date of each holding with a corresponding reclassification between unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and undistributed net investment income. Adoption of these accounting principles does not affect the West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund's net asset value or distributions, but changes the classification of certain amounts between investment income and realized and unrealized gain/loss on the Statement of Operations. The cumulative effect to the West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund resulting from the adoption of premium and discount amortization on the financial statements is as follows:

As of February 1, 2001

For the Year Ended January 31, 2002

$ (13,361 )

 

$ (9,288 )

The Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights for prior periods have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.

Federal Taxes--It is each Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code") applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of their income. Accordingly, no provisions for federal tax are necessary.

Withholding taxes on foreign interest and dividends have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions--The Funds may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Funds record when-issued securities on the trade date and maintain security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Restricted Securities--Restricted securities are securities that may only be resold upon registration under federal securities laws or in transactions exempt from such registration. In some cases, the issuer of restricted securities has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer's expense either upon demand by the Funds or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Such restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Trustees. The Funds will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Funds' restricted securities are valued at the price provided by dealers in the secondary market or, if no market prices are available, at the fair value as determined by the Funds' pricing committee.

Additional information on the restricted illiquid security held by West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund at January 31, 2003 is as follows:

Security      Acquisition
Date
     Acquisition
Cost
Kanawha County, WV, PCR, 7.35%   3 /5/1996   $ 2,309,987

Use of Estimates--The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Other--Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.

(3) Shares of Beneficial Interest

The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value).

(4) Federal Tax Information

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due in part to differing treatments for net operating loss, wash sales, post-October losses and discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

For the year ended January 31, 2003, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Fund Name

   

Paid In

Undistributed
Net Investment
Income (Loss)

Net Realized
Gains (Losses)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is attributed primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the amortization/accretion tax elections on fixed income securities.

At January 31, 2003, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards which will reduce the Funds' taxable income arising from future net realized gain on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Funds of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforwards will expire as follows:

The Adviser may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. The Adviser can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Administrative Fee--Federated Services Company ("FServ") provides the Funds with certain administrative personnel and services. The fee paid to FServ is based on a scale that ranges from 0.150% to 0.075% of the average aggregate net assets of the Trust for the period, subject to a $75,000 minimum per portfolio. FServ may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FServ can modify or terminate this voluntarily waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Distribution (12b-1) Fee--The Funds have adopted a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the terms of the Plan, the Funds may compensate Edgewood Services, Inc., the principal distributor, from the net assets of the Funds to finance activities intended to result in the sale of each Fund's shares. The Plan provides that the Funds may incur distribution expenses up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Funds' shares, annually, to compensate Edgewood Services, Inc. For the year ended January 31, 2003, the Funds did not incur fees under the Plan.

Shareholder Services Fee--Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with WesBanco Trust and Investment Services ("WesBanco"), the Funds may pay WesBanco up to 0.25% of average daily net assets for the period. The fee paid to WesBanco is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts.

Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Fees and Expenses--FServ, through its subsidiary Federated Shareholder Services Company ("FSSC"), serves as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Funds. The fee paid to FSSC is based on the size, type and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders.

Custodian Fees--WesBanco is the Funds' custodian. The fee is based on the level of each Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses.

Other Affiliated Parties and Transactions--Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Funds may invest in certain affiliated money market funds which are distributed by an affiliate of the Funds' distributor. As of January 31, 2003, each Fund owned the following percentages of the affiliated funds' outstanding shares:

(7) Concentration of Credit Risk (UNAUDITED)

Since the West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at January 31, 2003, 45.2% of the securities in the portfolio of investments are backed by letters of credit or bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies. The percentage of investments insured by or supported (backed) by a letter of credit from any one institution or agency did not exceed 16.7% of total investments.

Additionally, the Funds may invest a portion of its assets in securities of companies that are deemed by the Funds' management to be classified in similar business sectors. The economic developments within a particular sector may have an adverse effect on the ability of issuers to meet their obligations. Additionally, economic developments may have an effect on the liquidity and volatility of portfolio securities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
WESMARK FUNDS:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of WesMark Funds (the "Trust") comprising WesMark Small Company Growth Fund, WesMark Growth Fund, WesMark Balanced Fund, WesMark Bond Fund and WesMark West Virginia Municipal Bond Fund as of January 31, 2003, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for the periods presented. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to provide reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of the securities owned at January 31, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of WesMark Funds as of January 31, 2003, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, the respective stated periods in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
