The Trust files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q within sixty days after the end of the period. The Trust’s Forms N-Q are available on the Commission’s website at http://www.sec.gov, and may be reviewed and copied at the Commission’s Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

Since the Funds in SEI Daily Income Trust typically hold only fixed income securities, they generally are not expected to hold securities for which they may be required to vote proxies. Regardless, in light of the possibility that a Fund could hold a security for which a proxy is voted, the Trust has adopted proxy voting policies. A description of the policies and procedures that the Trust uses to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities, as well as information relating to how a Fund voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30, is available without charge (i) upon request, by calling 1-800-DIAL-SEI; and (ii) on the Commission’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

Percentages are based on Net Assets of $3,891,260 ($ Thousands).

 

(A)   Floating Rate Instrument. The rate reflected on the Schedule of Investments is the rate in effect on July 31, 2009. The demand and interest rate reset features give this security a shorter effective maturity date.

 

(B)   Securities are held in connection with a letter of credit issued by a major bank.

 

(C)   The rate reported is the effective yield at time of purchase.

 

(D)   The Fund has entered into a Capital Support Agreement (“agreement”) with SEI Investments Company (“SEI”) which provides that SEI will contribute capital to the Fund, up to a specified maximum amount, in the event that the Fund realizes a loss on any of these securities. As of July 31, 2009, the fair value of the agreement was $29,973 ($ Thousands).

 

(E)   Securities considered illiquid. The total value of such securities as of July 31, 2009 was $29,976 ($ Thousands) and represented 0.77% of Net Assets.

 

(F)   Securities sold within terms of a private placement memorandum, exempt from registration under Section 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may be sold only to dealers in that program or other “accredited investors.”

 

(G)   These securities are considered restricted. The total value of such securities as of July 31, 2009 was $29,976 ($ Thousands) and represented 0.77% of Net Assets.

 

(H)   On January 18, 2008, due to deterioration in the market value of the assets Stanfield Victoria Finance, LLC (“Victoria”), provisions in the organizational documents of Victoria were triggered that caused the notes issued by Victoria to become immediately due and payable. Since no payments have been received, the Victoria notes are in default. Since that time, this security’s valuation has been determined in accordance with fair value for purposes of calculating the Fund’s “mark-to-market” net asset value. As of the time of this filing, there is a material difference between the fair value of this security and its amortized cost.

 

(I)   The value shown is the fair value as of July 31, 2009. Please refer to Note 9 for the amortized cost value as of July 31, 2009.

Amounts   designated as “—” are $0.
*   For the six month period ended July 31, 2009. All ratios for the period have been annualized.
**   The expense ratio includes the Treasury Guarantee Program expense. Had the expense been excluded, the expense ratio would have been equal to, or less than, the expense ratio cap figure. See Note 3 for expense ratio cap figure.
  Returns are for the period indicated and have not been annualized. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
††   The total return includes payment by affiliate. Had the payment been excluded the total return would have been 1.61%, 1.31%, 1.11% and 0.86% for Class A, Class B, Class C and Sweep Class, respectively. See Note 3 in Notes to Financial Statements.
(1)   Per share calculations were performed using average shares.
(2)   The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive and reduce its fee and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Fund in order to limit the one-day net income yield of the Fund to not less than 0.01% of the Fund’s average daily net assets of the share class. Had these waivers and the Treasury Guarantee Program expense been excluded the ratio would have been at the expense ratio cap figure. See Note 3 for expense ratio cap figure.
(3)   Amount represents less than $0.01 per share.

Amounts   designated as “—” are $0.
*   For the six month period ended July 31, 2009. All ratios for the period have been annualized.
**   The expense ratio includes the Treasury Guarantee Program expense. Had the expense been excluded, the expense ratio would have been equal to, or less than, the expense ratio cap figure. See Note 3 for expense ratio cap figure.
  Returns are for the period indicated and have not been annualized. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
††   The total return includes payment by affiliate. Had the payment been excluded the total return would have been (2.75)%, (2.85)%, (2.86)%, (2.87)% and (2.86)% for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class H and Sweep Class, respectively. See Note 3 in Notes to Financial Statements.
(1)   Per share calculations were performed using average shares.
(2)   The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive and reduce its fee and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Fund in order to limit the one-day net income yield of the Fund to not less than 0.01% of the Fund’s average daily net assets of the share class. Had these waivers and the Treasury Guarantee Program expense been excluded the ratio would have been at the expense ratio cap figure. See Note 3 for expense ratio cap figure.
(3)   Amount represents less than $0.01 per share.

Notes to Financial Statements

July 31, 2009

 

1. ORGANIZATION

SEI Daily Income Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Massachusetts business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated March 15, 1982.

The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end investment company with ten operational Funds: the Money Market, Government, Government II, Prime Obligation, Treasury and Treasury II (each a “Fund,” collectively the “Money Market Funds”), the Short-Duration Government, Intermediate-Duration Government, GNMA and Ultra Short Bond (each a “Fund,” collectively the “Fixed Income Funds”). The Money Market, Government, Government II, Prime Obligation, Treasury, Treasury II, Short-Duration Government, Intermediate-Duration Government, and GNMA Funds seek to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. The Ultra Short Bond Fund seeks to provide higher current income than typically offered by a money market fund while maintaining a high degree of liquidity and a correspondingly higher risk of principal volatility. The assets of each Fund are segregated, and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets at the date of the financial statements, and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Security Valuation — Investment securities of the Money Market Funds, except those securities which are covered by the Capital Support Agreement, are stated at amortized cost which approximates market value. Under this valuation method, purchase discounts and premiums are accreted and amortized ratably to maturity and are included in interest income. The Funds’ use of amortized cost is subject to their compliance with certain conditions as specified by rule 2a-7 of the 1940 act. Refer to Note 9 for a discussion of the Capital Support Agreement entered into by the Money Market Fund and the Prime Obligation Fund.

Investment securities of the Fixed Income Funds listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market on which they are traded, or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent quoted bid price. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid

price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. Prices for most securities held in the Funds are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. If a security price cannot be obtained from an independent, third-party pricing agent, the Funds seek to obtain a bid price from at least one independent broker.

Securities for which market prices are not “readily available” are valued in accordance with Fair Value Procedures established by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. The Trust’s Fair Value Procedures are implemented through a Fair Value Committee (the “Committee”) designated by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using Fair Value Procedures include: the security’s trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security’s primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; or the security’s primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price. When a security is valued in accordance with the Fair Value Procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was adopted by the Trust effective February 1, 2008. In accordance with FAS 157, fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. FAS 157 established a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of the observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of the fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The valuation techniques used by the Trust to measure fair value in accordance with FAS 157 during the six months ended July 31, 2009 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs.

In October 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset in a Market That Is Not Active (“FSP 157-3”), which clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in an inactive market and provides an illustrative example to demonstrate how the fair value of a financial asset is determined when the market for that financial asset is not active. The guidance provided by FSP 157-3 did not have an impact on the Fund’s approach to valuing financial assets.

In April 2009, FASB Staff Position No. 157-4 — Determining Fair Value when the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly (“FSP 157-4”) was issued. FSP 157-4 clarifies the process for measuring the fair value of financial instruments when the markets become inactive and quoted prices may reflect distressed transactions. FSP 157-4 provides a non-exclusive list of factors a reporting entity should consider when determining whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability when compared with normal market activity. Under FSP 157-4, if a reporting entity concludes there has been a significant decrease in volume and level of activity for the asset or liability (or similar assets or liabilities), transactions or quoted prices may not be determinative of fair value. Further analysis of the transactions or quoted prices is needed, and a significant adjustment to the transactions or quoted prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with FASB Statement No. 157 — Fair Value Measurement. FSP 157-4 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. There was no change to the financial position of the Funds and results of its operations due to the adoption of FSP 157-4 and all disclosures have been made for the current period as part of the Schedule of Investments.

Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Costs used in determining net realized capital gains and losses on the sale of securities are those of the specific securities sold, adjusted for the accretion and amortization of purchase discounts and premiums during the respective holding period. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Purchase discounts and premiums on securities held in the Fixed Income Funds are accreted and amortized over the life of each security. Paydown gains and losses are classified as interest income.

Repurchase Agreements — Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by each Fund’s custodian bank until maturity of the repurchase agreements. Provisions of the agreements and the Trust’s policies ensure that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default

by the counterparty. The Funds also invest in tri-party repurchase agreements. Securities held as collateral for tri-party repurchase agreements are maintained by the broker’s custodian bank in a segregated account until maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the agreements ensure that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if the counterparty enters into an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by a Fund may be delayed or limited.

Futures Contracts — The Fixed Income Funds’ utilized futures contracts during the six months ended July 31, 2009. The Fixed Income Funds’ investment in these futures contracts is designed to enable the Fixed Income Funds to more closely approximate the performance of their benchmark indices.

Initial margin deposits of cash or securities are made upon entering into futures contracts. The contracts are “marked-to-market” daily and the resulting changes in value are accounted for as unrealized gains and losses. Variation margin payments are paid or received, depending upon whether unrealized losses or gains are incurred. When the contract is closed, the Fixed Income Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the amount invested in the contract.

Risks related to futures contracts include the possibility that there may not be a liquid market for the contracts, that the changes in the value of the contract may not directly correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities, and that the counterparty to a contract may default on its obligation to perform. The notional amount presented in the Schedules of Investments in the Fixed Income Funds represents each Fixed Income Fund’s total exposure in such contracts, whereas only the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is reflected in each Fixed Income Fund’s net assets.

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008 and has been adopted by the Trust as of July 31, 2009. SFAS No. 161 requires enhanced disclosures about the Funds’ derivative and hedging activities, including how such activities are accounted for and their effect on the Funds’ financial position, performance, and cash flows. There was no change to the financial position of the Funds upon adoption of SFAS 161.

Swap Agreements — A swap agreement is a two-party contract under which an agreement is made to exchange returns from predetermined investments or instruments, including a particular interest rate, foreign currency, or “basket” of securities representing a particular index. Credit-default swaps involve the periodic payment by a Fixed Income Fund or counterparty of interest based on a specified rate multiplied by a notional amount assigned to an underlying debt instrument or

group of debt instruments in exchange for the assumption of credit risk on the same instruments. In the event of a credit event, usually in the form of a credit rating downgrade, the party receiving periodic payments (i.e. floating rate payer) must pay the other party (i.e. fixed rate payer) an amount equal to the outstanding principal of the downgraded debt instrument. Total return swaps allow an investor to benefit from the cash flow without ever actually owning the underlying security. The receiver must pay any decline in value to the payer at the end of the total return swaps. However, the investor does not need to make a payment if there is no decline in price. Payments can be made on various indices, bonds (i.e. mortgage backed securities, bank debt and corporate), loans or commodities. The value of a total return swap is equal to the change in value of the underlying asset versus the accrued income payment based on LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) or some other form of index on the notional amount. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by a Fixed Income Fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments) with respect to a notional amount of principal to manage a Fixed Income Fund’s exposure to interest rates. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. A Fixed Income Fund could be exposed to credit or market risk due to unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates or if the counterparty defaults on its obligation to perform. Risk of loss may exceed amounts recognized on the statement of assets and liabilities. In connection with swap agreements, securities may be set aside as collateral by a Fund’s custodian. A Fixed Income Fund may enter into swap agreements in order to, among other things, change the maturity or duration of the investment portfolio; protect a Fixed Income Fund’s value from changes in interest rates; or expose a Fixed Income Fund to a different security or market.

Swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the resulting changes in market values, if any, are recorded as unrealized gains or losses in the Statement of Operations. Net payments of interest are recorded as realized gains or losses.

Entering into swap agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Schedule of Investments or 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 agreement may default on its obligation to perform and that there may be unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates. Risks also arise from potential losses from adverse market movements. There were no swap agreements as of July 31, 2009.

TBA Purchase Commitments — A Fund may engage in “to be announced” (“TBA”) purchase commitments to purchase securities for a fixed price at a future date. TBA purchase commitments may be considered securities and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to settlement date, which risk is in addition to the risk of decline in the value of a 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 Valuation” above.

Collateralized Debt Obligations — A Fund may invest in collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), which include collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) and other similarly structured securities. CLOs are a type of asset-backed securities. A CLO is a trust typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and foreign senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. CDOs may charge management fees and administrative expenses.

For CDOs, the cashflows from the trust are split into two or more portions, called tranches, varying in risk and yield. The riskiest portion is the “equity” tranche which bears the bulk of defaults from the bonds or loans in the trust and serves to protect the other, more senior tranches from default in all but the most severe circumstances. Since it is partially protected from defaults, a senior tranche from a CDO trust typically has a higher rating and lower yield than their underlying securities, and can be rated investment grade. Despite the protection from the equity tranche, CDO tranches can experience substantial losses due to actual defaults, increased sensitivity to defaults due to collateral default and disappearance of protecting tranches, market anticipation of defaults, as well as aversion to CDO securities as a class.

The risks of an investment in a CDO depend largely on the type of the collateral securities and the class of the CDO in which a Fund invests. Normally, CLOs and other CDOs are privately offered and sold, and thus, are not registered under the securities laws. As a result, investments in CDOs may be characterized by a Fund as illiquid securities; however, an active dealer market may exist for CDOs allowing a CDO to qualify for Rule 144A transactions. In addition to the normal risks associated with fixed income securities (e.g., interest rate risk and default risk), CDOs carry additional risks including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the Funds may invest in CDOs that are subordinate to other classes; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results.

Illiquid Securities — A security is considered illiquid if it cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days or less for its approximate carrying value on the books of a Fund. Valuations of illiquid securities may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market value for these securities existed.

Restricted Securities — At July 31, 2009, the Prime Obligation Fund owned private placement investments that were purchased through

private offerings or acquired through initial public offerings and cannot be sold without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933 or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. In addition, the Prime Obligation Fund has generally agreed to further restrictions on the

disposition of certain holdings as set forth in various agreements entered into in connection with the purchase of these investments. These investments are valued at amortized cost as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Trustees.


 

The acquisition dates of these investments, along with their cost and values at July 31, 2009, were as follows:

Classes — Class-specific expenses are borne by that class of shares. Income, realized and unrealized gains/losses and non-class-specific expenses are allocated to the respective class on the basis of relative daily net assets.

Expenses — Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged directly to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust, which are not directly associated to a specific Fund, are prorated to each Fund on the basis of relative daily net assets.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders — Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with Federal tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income are declared on a daily basis and are payable on the first business day of the following month. Any net realized capital gains on sales of securities for a Fund are distributed to its shareholders at least annually.

On September 18, 2008 the U.S. Treasury Department (the “Treasury”) commenced the Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the “Program”). The Trust’s Board of Trustees approved the participation of the below listed Funds in the Program from its commencement on September 18, 2008 through April 30, 2009. The Treasury offered funds participating in the Program an extension until September 18, 2009.

Under the Program, the Treasury guarantees the share price of a participating fund’s shares outstanding as of September 19, 2008 at $1.00 per share if the fund’s net asset value per share (NAV) falls below $0.995. The Program does not protect investors who were not shareholders of a participating fund on September 19, 2008. The cost of participating in the Program and the Program extensions is borne by a participating fund, and will not be subject to any expense limitation or reimbursement agreement.

In connection with the Program’s extension period from May 1, 2009 through September 18, 2009, participation in the Program will be as follows:

*   These payments are characterized as “compensation” and are not directly tied to expenses incurred by the Distributor. The payments the Distributor receives during any year may therefore be higher or lower than its actual expenses. These payments may be used to compensate sweep class shareholders who provide distribution-related services to their customers.

The Distributor has voluntarily waived all or a portion of the shareholder servicing fees for Class A of each fund, except for the GNMA Fund, since inception of the plan. Such waivers are voluntary and may be discontinued at any time. For Classes B, C, and H, the shareholder servicing fees and the administrative service fees are shown combined as “Administrative & Shareholder Servicing Fees” in the Statement of Operations. The Administrator and Distributor have voluntarily agreed to waive and reduce their fee and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Money Market Funds in order to limit the one-day net income yield of the Funds to not less than 0.01% of the Funds’ average daily net assets.

For its services, the Adviser receives an annual fee equal to .075% on the first $500 million of net assets and .02% on the net assets in excess of $500 million for the Money Market Funds. The fee will be calculated based on the combined assets of the Money Market Funds. The Adviser also receives an annual fee equal to .10% on the first $500 million of net assets, .075% of net assets between $500 million and $1 billion and .05% on the net assets in excess of $1 billion for the Short-Duration Government, Intermediate-Duration Government and GNMA Funds. The fee will be calculated based on the combined assets of these Funds. The Adviser also receives an annual fee equal to .10% on the first $500

million of net assets, .075% of net assets between $500 million and $1 billion and .05% on the net assets in excess of $1 billion for the Ultra Short Bond Fund. The fee will be calculated based on the net assets of the Ultra Short Bond Fund.

Pursuant to the “manager of managers” structure, the Board of Trustees approved Columbia Management Advisors, LLC (formerly Banc of America Capital Management, LLC) as each Money Market Fund’s investment sub-adviser under an investment sub-advisory agreement approved by the shareholders of each Money Market Fund. For its services to the Money Market Funds, the sub-adviser is entitled to receive a fee paid directly by the Adviser.

6. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

It is each Fund’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes and distribute all of its taxable income (including net capital gains). Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required.

Reclassification of Components of Net Assets — The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with Federal tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for the reporting period may differ from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to Paid-in Capital, undistributed net investment income, or accumulated net realized gain, as appropriate, in the periods that the differences arise.

For Federal income tax purposes, capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. It is the Funds’ intent that they will not distribute any realized gain distributions until the carryforwards have been offset or expired.

During the year ended January 31, 2009, the Government Fund, Government II Fund, Prime Obligation Fund, Treasury II Fund, Short-Duration Government Fund, Intermediate-Duration Government Fund and GNMA Fund utilized $8,658, $15,904, $103,274, $13,770, $2,141,251, $2,055,699 and $1,396,975, respectively, of capital loss carryforwards, to offset capital gains.

At July 31, 2009, the Money Market Funds’ cost of securities for Federal income tax purposes approximates the cost located in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

The Federal tax cost and aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments held by the Prime Obligation Fund and Fixed Income Funds at July 31, 2009, were as follows:

Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on the federal tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of July 31, 2009 no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. All uncertain tax positions, except for the accretion of market discount associated with the structured investment vehicles subject to the capital support agreement, meet the more likely than not criteria established in FIN 48. SEI Investment Company (“SEI”), which is the parent company of the Adviser, has agreed to indemnify the fund if the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) were to disagree with a position taken on the tax return for the year ended July 31, 2009. Accordingly, no provision for taxes is required. The Fund’s federal income and excise tax returns are subject to examination by the IRS for all open tax years under the applicable Statute of Limitations.

 

7. INVESTMENT RISKS

In the normal course of business, a Fund may enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications by a Fund to the counterparty to the contract. A Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against a Fund and, therefore, cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claim is considered remote.

Investments in structured securities (such as those issued by Structured Investment Vehicles, or “SIVs”) which are collateralized by residential real estate mortgages are subject to certain credit and liquidity risks. When market conditions result in an increase in default rates of the underlying mortgages and the foreclosure values of underlying real estate properties are materially below the outstanding amount of these underlying mortgages, collection of accrued interest and principal on these investments may be doubtful. Such market conditions may significantly impair the value of these investments resulting in a lack of correlation between their credit ratings and values.

8. OTHER

The Board of Trustees approved a 5 for 1 reverse share split in the Ultra Short Bond Fund. The reverse share split occurred on May 6, 2005. This Fund is designed to be a low tracking error fund. This Fund experienced excess tracking error due to the impact of rounding on this Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”). The reverse share split resulted in a higher NAV for this Fund, thus decreasing the level of tracking error resulting from NAV rounding. The per share information included in the financial highlights for all periods prior to the reverse share split have been adjusted to properly reflect the effects of the reverse share spilt on a retroactive basis.

9. CAPITAL SUPPORT AGREEMENT

The Prime Obligation and Money Market Fund each originally entered into a Capital Support Agreement with SEI, which is the parent company of the Adviser, on November 8, 2007. As of September 30, 2008, the Money Market Fund no longer held any structured investment vehicle (“SIV”) securities and the Capital Support Agreement with the Money Market Fund lapsed.

On November 5, 2008, the Prime Obligation Fund entered into an Amended and Restated Capital Support Agreement (the “Amended CSA”) with SEI which extended the termination date under the original Capital Support Agreement with the Prime Obligation Fund to November 6, 2009. The Amended CSA provides that if the Prime Obligation Fund realizes payments or sales proceeds from the ultimate disposition of any of the specified SIV securities which are less than its amortized cost, SEI will be required to provide capital to the Prime Obligation Fund equal to the amount by which the amortized cost of the specified SIV security exceeds the amount realized from the sale or other disposition of such security. In March 2009, SEI purchased at amortized cost from the Prime Obligation Fund certain of the SIV securities held by that Fund, thereby reducing the amount of specified SIV securities held in that Fund. The specified SIV securities still

held in the Prime Obligation Fund as of July 31, 2009 are footnoted on the Schedule of Investments. The specified SIV securities in the Prime Obligation Fund had an aggregate par value of $59,951,738 on July 31, 2009.

Under the Amended CSA, SEI must maintain collateral in the form of a letter of credit and/or a segregated cash account equal to the difference between the amortized cost value and the market value of the specified SIV securities plus an amount equal to ten percent of the market value of the specified SIV securities. As of July 31, 2009, SEI’s obligations under the Amended CSA were supported by Letters of

Credit in the amount of $39 million issued by a bank having a First Tier credit rating. The Prime Obligation Fund will draw on the Letters of Credit or the segregated account in the event that SEI fails to make a cash contribution when due under the Amended CSA.

The Prime Obligation Fund will sell the specified SIV securities (i) promptly following any change in the Letter of Credit provider’s short term credit ratings such that the Letter of Credit provider’s obligations no longer qualify as First Tier Securities as defined in paragraph (a)(12) of Rule 2a-7, or (ii) on the business day immediately prior to the termination date of the Amended CSA.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through September 28, 2009 (i.e., the date the financial statements were available to be issued). Based on this evaluation, no adjustments were required to the financial statements as of July 31, 2009. However, the following are details relating to subsequent events that have occurred since July 31, 2009 through September 28, 2009.

Subsequent to July 31, 2009, at a special meeting held on September 11, 2009 and adjourned to September 25, 2009 for the Government Fund, the shareholders of the Money Market Funds voted on a proposal to approve an amendment to the investment advisory agreement that would increase the management fee payable by the Money Market Funds to the Advisor for its investment advisory services. The results of the voting are detailed in Shareholder Voting Results, located on page 54.

Subsequent to July 31, 2009, an affiliate of SIMC purchased from the Prime Obligation Fund the notes issued by Stanfield Victoria Funding LLC (“Stanfield”) that were held by the Fund. As a result of SEI’s purchase, there was no loss incurred by the Prime Obligation Fund on this transaction. This transaction was effected pursuant to Rule 17a-9 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Act”), which permits an affiliate to purchase a security from a money market fund if that security is no longer an Eligible Security pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the Act. Stanfield was not an Eligible Security at the time of the transaction. Since the Prime Obligation Fund held no Eligible Notes as of September 28, 2009, the Capital Support Agreement with the Prime Obligation Fund terminated as of that date.

Disclosure of Fund Expenses (Unaudited)

 

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a Fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.

Operating expenses such as these are deducted from the Fund’s gross income and directly reduce your final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average net assets; this percentage is known as the Fund’s expense ratio.

The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The table on the next page illustrates your Fund’s costs in two ways:

• Actual Fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that your Fund incurred over the period. The “Expenses Paid During Period” column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the “Ending Account Value” number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the fund’s gross investment return.

You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the fund, to estimate the expenses your Fund incurred over that period. Simply divide your actual starting account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under “Expenses Paid During Period.”

• Hypothetical 5% return. This section helps you compare your Fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund’s comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the “Expense Paid During Period” column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other funds.

NOTE: Because the return is set at 5% for comparison purposes — NOT your Fund’s actual return — the account values shown do not apply to your specific investment.

Board of Trustees Considerations in Approving the Continuation of the Funds’ Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)

 

SEI Daily Income Trust (the “Trust”) and SEI Investments Management Corporation (“SIMC”) have entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”). Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, SIMC oversees the investment advisory services provided to the series of the Trust (the “Funds”) and may manage the cash portion of the Funds’ assets. Pursuant to separate sub-advisory agreements (the “Sub-Advisory Agreements” and, together with the Advisory Agreement, the “Investment Advisory Agreements”) with SIMC, and under the supervision of SIMC and the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”), the Sub-Advisers are responsible for the day-to-day investment management of all or a discrete portion of the assets of the Funds. The Sub-Advisers also are responsible for managing their employees who provide services to these Funds. The Sub-Advisers are selected based primarily upon the research and recommendations of SIMC, which evaluates quantitatively and qualitatively the Sub-Advisers’ skills and investment results in managing assets for specific asset classes, investment styles and strategies.

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) requires that the initial approval of, as well as the continuation of, the Funds’ Investment Advisory Agreements must be specifically approved: (i) by the vote of the Board of Trustees or by a vote of the shareholders of the Funds; and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Investment Advisory Agreements or “interested persons” of any party (the “Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. In connection with their consideration of such approvals, the Funds’ Trustees must request and evaluate, and SIMC and the Sub-Advisers are required to furnish, such information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreements. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) takes the position that, as part of their fiduciary duties with respect to a mutual fund’s fees, mutual fund boards are required to evaluate the material factors applicable to a decision to approve an Investment Advisory Agreement.

Consistent with these responsibilities, the Trust’s Board of Trustees calls and holds meetings each year that are dedicated to considering whether to renew the Investment Advisory Agreements between the Trust and SIMC and SIMC and the Sub-Advisers with respect to the Funds of the Trust. In preparation for these meetings, the Board requests and reviews a wide variety of materials provided by SIMC and the Sub-Advisers, including information about SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ affiliates, personnel and operations. The Board also receives extensive data provided by third parties. This information is in addition to the detailed information about the Funds that the Board reviews during the course of each year, including information that relates to Fund operations and Fund performance. The Trustees also receive a memorandum from Fund counsel and independent counsel to the Independent Trustees regarding the responsibilities of Trustees in connection with their consideration of whether to approve the Trust’s Investment Advisory Agreements. Finally, the Independent Trustees receive advice from independent counsel to the Independent Trustees, meet in executive session outside the presence of Fund management and participate in question and answer sessions with representatives of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers.

Specifically, the Board requested and received written materials from SIMC and the Sub-Advisers regarding: (a) the quality of SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ investment management and other services; (b) SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ investment management personnel; (c) SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ operations and financial condition; (d) SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements) and investment strategies; (e) the level of the advisory fees that SIMC and the Sub-Advisers charge the Funds compared with the fees each charge to comparable mutual funds; (f) the Funds’ overall fees and operating expenses compared with similar mutual funds; (g) the level of SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ profitability from their Fund-related operations; (h) SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ compliance systems; (i) SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ policies on and compliance procedures for personal securities transactions; (j) SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ reputation, expertise and resources in domestic and/or international financial markets; and (k) the Funds’ performance compared with similar mutual funds.

Board of Trustees Considerations in Approving the Continuation of the Funds’ Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (Concluded)

 

At the March 25-26, 2009 meetings of the Board of Trustees (the “Board Meeting”), the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the Investment Advisory Agreements and approved the selection of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers to act in their respective capacities for the Funds. Additionally, during the Board Meeting, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, also considered a proposal to amend the Advisory Agreement, which would increase the management fee that certain of the Funds pay to SIMC (the “Proposal”). SIMC requested an increase in its management fee because SIMC believed it was necessary to ensure that SIMC is able to retain and/or attract qualified sub-advisers to provide sub-advisory services for certain of the Funds. The Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved this Proposal, subject to the approval of the affected Funds’ shareholders. The Board concluded, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment that the Proposal was fair and reasonable in relation to the services expected to be provided to each of the affected Funds and that approval of the Proposal would be in the best interests of the shareholders of each of the affected Funds. The Board also determined that the basis for the renewal of the Advisory Agreement would remain the basis for the Board’s approval of the Proposal, subject to the new consideration of the proposed higher management fee rate. The Board’s approval of both the Proposal and the Investment Advisory Agreements was based on its consideration and evaluation of a variety of specific factors discussed at the meetings and at prior meetings, including:

 

 

the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds under the Investment Advisory Agreements, including the resources of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates dedicated to the Funds;

 

 

the Funds’ investment performance and how it compared to that of other comparable mutual funds;

 

 

the Funds’ expenses under each Investment Advisory Agreement and how those expenses compared to those of other comparable mutual funds;

 

 

the profitability of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates with respect to the Funds, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates; and

 

 

the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels in the Investment Advisory Agreements reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Board of Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by SIMC and the Sub-Advisers to the Funds and the resources of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates dedicated to the Funds. In this regard, the Trustees evaluated, among other things, SIMC’s and the Sub-Advisers’ personnel, experience, track record and compliance program. The Trustees found the level of SIMC’s professional staff and culture of compliance satisfactory. Following evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the nature, extent and quality of services provided by SIMC and the Sub-Advisers to the Funds and the resources of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates dedicated to the Funds supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements.

Fund Performance. The Board of Trustees considered Fund performance in determining whether to renew the Investment Advisory Agreements. Specifically, the Trustees considered the Funds’ performance relative to their peer groups and appropriate indices/benchmarks, in light of total return, yield and market trends. As part of this review, the Trustees considered the composition of each peer group and selection criteria. In evaluating performance, the Trustees considered both market risk and shareholder risk expectations for the Funds. The Trustees found Fund performance satisfactory, and where performance was below the benchmark, the Trustees were satisfied that appropriate steps were being taken. Following evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the performance of the Funds supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements.

Fund Expenses. With respect to the Funds’ expenses under the Investment Advisory Agreements, the Trustees considered the rate of compensation called for by the Investment Advisory Agreements and the Funds’ net operating expense ratio in comparison to those of other comparable mutual funds. The Trustees also considered information about average expense ratios of comparable mutual funds in the Funds’ respective peer groups. The Trustees further considered the fact that the comparative fee analysis either showed that the various fees were below average or that there was a reasonable basis for the fee level. Finally, the Trustees considered the effects of SIMC’s voluntary waiver of management and other fees and the Sub-Advisers’ fees to prevent total Fund expenses from exceeding a specified cap and that SIMC and the Sub-Advisers, through waivers, have maintained the Funds’ net operating expenses at competitive levels for their respective distribution channels. Following evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the expenses of the Funds are reasonable and supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements.

Profitability. With regard to profitability, the Trustees considered all compensation flowing to SIMC and the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates, directly or indirectly. The Trustees considered whether the varied levels of compensation and profitability under the Investment Advisory Agreements and other service agreements were reasonable and justified in light of the quality of all services rendered to the Funds by SIMC and the Sub-Advisers and their affiliates. The Trustees found that profitability was reasonable and that the margin was not increasing despite growth in assets. When considering the profitability of the Sub-Advisers, the Board took into account the fact that the Sub-Advisers are compensated by SIMC, and not by the Funds directly, and such compensation with respect to any Sub-Adviser reflects an arms-length negotiation between the Sub-Adviser and SIMC. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the profitability of SIMC and the Sub-Advisers are reasonable and supported renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreements.

Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those were passed along to the Funds’ shareholders through a graduated investment advisory fee schedule or other means, including any fee waivers by SIMC and its affiliates. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded that, within the context of its full deliberations, the Funds obtain reasonable benefit from economies of scale.

Based on the Trustees’ deliberation and their evaluation of the information described above, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved the continuation of the Investment Advisory Agreements and concluded that the compensation under the Investment Advisory Agreements is fair and reasonable in light of such services and expenses and such other matters as the Trustees considered to be relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment. In the course of their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling.
