Must be preceded or accompanied by a prospectus. From the President [phot of Keith T. Banks] Dear Shareholder: Over the past 12 months, the environment for the bond market was shaped by economic events and investor concerns. Although the Federal Reserve Board halted its string of interest rate cuts in December 2001, its presence on the sidelines was felt by the market as investors tried to guess the timing of its next move. A robust first quarter in 2002 suggested that the Fed could begin to raise short-term interest rates. However, the Fed kept a key short-term interest rate at 1.75%, and indications of slower economic growth in the second quarter raised the possibility that any further action could be delayed until later in the year. The US stock market declined sharply during the period, a reminder that having a fixed-income component in your portfolio, which may be a sound strategy in any environment, may be particularly beneficial when stocks fall on difficult times. Within the fixed-income universe the municipal bond market was one of the strongest sectors for the period. As cities and states faced leaner times and tighter budgets, the volume of new municipal bonds increased somewhat. Demand also increased as investors favored bonds over stocks, which helped support municipal bond returns. The following report will provide you with more detailed information about fund performance and the strategies used by your portfolio managers. As always, we thank you for investing in Stein Roe Funds and for giving us the opportunity to help you build a strong financial future. For more information, visit us online at steinroe.com. Thank you for choosing the Stein Roe Municipal Funds and for giving us the opportunity to serve your investment needs. Sincerely, /s/ Keith T. Banks Keith T. Banks President Economic and market conditions change frequently. There is no assurance that the trends described in this report will continue or commence. 1 Performance Summary Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund Average annual total return (%) Period ended June 30, 2002 1-year 5-year 10-year - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund 1.40 2.77 2.69 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lipper Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund Average 1.25 2.70 2.69 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUTUAL FUND PERFORMANCE CHANGES OVER TIME.

Source: Lipper Inc. 2 Portfolio Manager's Report Fund Commentary COMMENTARY FROM NORMAND DESROSIERS, PORTFOLIO MANAGER OF STEIN ROE MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND1 Municipal Fund outperforms benchmark The Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund delivered a total return of 1.40% during the 12-month period that ended June 30, 2002. The fund outperformed its peer group, the Lipper Tax Exempt Money Market Fund Category average, which returned 1.25% for the same period. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investment Objective and Strategy: Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund seeks maximum current income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of liquidity. The fund invests all of its assets in SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio as part of a master fund/feeder fund structure. The portfolio invests substantially all of its assets in a diversified portfolio of high quality, tax-exempt money market securities. Fund Inception: March 15, 1983 Net Assets: $111.5 million - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Low interest rates mean lower yields Interest rates were the most important factor affecting fund performance during the 12-month period. During the first half of the fiscal year the Federal Reserve Board cut short-term interest rates by two percentage points, leaving the fed funds rate--the rate banks pay to borrow money from each other--at a forty-year low of 1.75%. Rates in the short-term municipal market dropped in response, losing more than one percent between June 2001 and June 2002. At the same time the Bond Market Association average, a composite index composed of tax-exempt, seven-day variable rate demand notes, also dropped 1.45 percentage points, ending the year at 1.23%. 1 Veronica Wallace was the portfolio manager of this fund during the period. 3 Fund adjusts for greater liquidity The fund increased its investment in variable rate demand notes, a security with either one-day or one-week puts that are backed by a letter of credit or corporate bonds and are typically used for liquidity. We raised our percentage of variable rate demand notes from 71.3% of holdings in June 2001 to 79.3%, anticipating the need for greater liquidity in a choppy market. Approximately 30% of our variable rate demand notes were in the more liquid daily puts, a change from past periods when the number was as low as 5%. Aside from that change, the fund's composition was similar to that of the last reporting period. Tax-exempt securities made up 7.2% of the fund, 6.6% was invested in six-month or one-year put bonds, 2.3% was in commercial paper, and tax and revenue anticipation notes (TRANs) and tax anticipation notes (TANs) together made up 4.6% of the Fund. Securities type breakdown2 [bar chart data]: % ---- Variable Rate Notes 79.3 Tax-Exempt Bonds 4.1 Other Tax-Exempt Bonds 3.1 Put Bonds 6.6 Tax & Revenue Anticipation Notes 3.8 Tax Anticipation Notes 0.8 Commercial Paper 2.3 Longer average maturity helps performance Early in the fund's fiscal year we increased the fund's average maturity because we were attracted to better yields available at the long end of a steepening yield curve. (The yield curve is the difference between rates paid on money market securities, from one month to one year.) By September the fund had an average maturity of 53 days, compared to a peer group average of 40 days. During that time we invested in several one-year issues at favorable yields. We let average maturity gradually drop by reinvesting in variable rate demand notes or commercial paper instead of one-year paper during the 4 first quarter of 2002. Increasingly positive economic news had led to speculation that the Fed would raise rates later in 2002, and we hoped to invest at higher interest rates as old debt matured. Instead, interest rates stayed the same for the first half of 2002 on spotty economic numbers. We ended the year with an average maturity of 32 days. As of July 1, 2002, the fund's new manager is Normand Desrosiers, Vice President and portfolio manager of the Advisor since 2000, and has managed Stein Roe Muncipal Money Market Fund as of July 1, 2002. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Portfolio statistics As of 6/30/02 As of 6/30/01 7-Day dollar-weighted average maturity 32 days 47 days 7-Day current yield1 1.02% 2.69% 1 Net of all fees and expenses and represents an annualization of dividends declared and payable to shareholders for the last seven days of investments. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUTUAL FUND PERFORMANCE CHANGES OVER TIME.

Class A, B and C share (newer class shares) performance includes returns of the fund's class S shares (the oldest existing fund class) for periods prior to the inception dates of the newer class shares. Class S share returns are not restated to reflect any expense differential, e.g., 12b-1 fees, between class S and the newer class shares. Had the expense differential been reflected, the returns for the period prior to inception of class A, B and C would have been lower. The "with sales charge" returns include the maximum 3.25% charge for class A shares, the appropriate class B contingent deferred sales charge for the holding period after purchase as follows: through first year--5%, second year--4%, third year--3%, fourth year--3%, fifth year--2%, sixth year--1%, thereafter--0%, and the class C contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the first year only. Performance for different share classes will vary based on differences in sales charges and fees associated with each class. 6 INVESTMENT COMPARISON Growth of a $10,000 Investment, June 30, 1992 to June 30, 2002 [line chart data]: Stein Roe Lehman Brothers Intermediate 10-Year Municipals Municipal Fund, Class S Bond Index 1992 $10,000.0 $10,000.0 10,303.0 10,328.0 10,172.0 10,206.0 10,233.0 10,291.0 10,120.0 10,186.0 10,318.0 10,372.0 10,426.0 10,493.0 10,562.0 10,669.0 10,952.0 11,059.0 10,805.0 10,898.0 10,893.0 11,001.0 10,936.0 11,040.0 93 11,093.0 11,257.0 11,107.0 11,286.0 11,304.0 11,519.0 11,434.0 11,661.0 11,448.0 11,680.0 11,366.0 11,584.0 11,580.0 11,830.0 11,704.0 11,976.0 11,448.0 11,648.0 11,090.0 11,203.0 11,174.0 11,326.0 11,269.0 11,417.0 94 11,223.0 11,368.0 11,360.0 11,559.0 11,385.0 11,604.0 11,277.0 11,447.0 11,157.0 11,280.0 11,018.0 11,067.0 11,191.0 11,266.0 11,407.0 11,558.0 11,618.0 11,885.0 11,720.0 12,045.0 11,724.0 12,060.0 12,020.0 12,442.0 95 11,961.0 12,365.0 12,096.0 12,547.0 12,233.0 12,717.0 12,292.0 12,799.0 12,418.0 12,946.0 12,555.0 13,119.0 12,638.0 13,199.0 12,765.0 13,333.0 12,703.0 13,278.0 12,566.0 13,113.0 12,538.0 13,067.0 12,523.0 13,031.0 96 12,618.0 13,155.0 12,727.0 13,281.0 12,721.0 13,281.0 12,838.0 13,418.0 12,971.0 13,587.0 13,203.0 13,861.0 13,161.0 13,799.0 13,215.0 13,853.0 13,310.0 13,983.0 13,142.0 13,796.0 13,218.0 13,898.0 13,391.0 14,095.0 97 13,504.0 14,250.0 13,820.0 14,650.0 13,708.0 14,508.0 13,857.0 14,693.0 13,913.0 14,770.0 13,967.0 14,838.0 14,146.0 15,073.0 14,275.0 15,240.0 14,276.0 15,239.0 14,259.0 15,228.0 14,178.0 15,144.0 14,383.0 15,402.0 98 14,426.0 15,459.0 14,458.0 15,483.0 14,678.0 15,753.0 14,845.0 15,987.0 14,851.0 15,994.0 14,893.0 16,042.0 14,917.0 16,092.0 15,116.0 16,338.0 15,002.0 16,191.0 14,996.0 16,183.0 15,042.0 16,226.0 14,943.0 16,113.0 99 14,726.0 15,813.0 14,813.0 15,919.0 14,755.0 15,860.0 14,761.0 15,914.0 14,661.0 15,801.0 14,774.0 15,973.0 14,707.0 15,890.0 14,654.0 15,825.0 14,763.0 15,950.0 14,954.0 16,261.0 14,908.0 16,180.0 14,838.0 16,084.0 2000 15,181.0 16,522.0 15,357.0 16,750.0 15,546.0 17,009.0 15,484.0 16,931.0 15,604.0 17,104.0 15,695.0 17,196.0 16,090.0 17,600.0 16,261.0 17,827.0 16,305.0 17,858.0 16,442.0 18,010.0 16,217.0 17,788.0 16,397.0 17,982.0 2001 16,505.0 18,090.0 16,759.0 18,338.0 17,057.0 18,651.0 16,977.0 18,625.0 17,160.0 18,856.0 16,903.0 18,613.0 16,766.0 18,416.0 17,029.0 18,764.0 17,247.0 19,032.0 16,858.0 18,640.0 17,210.0 19,072.0 17,301.0 19,162.0 2002 17,510.0 19,400.0 Performance of a $10,000 investment in all share classes 06/30/92 - 06/30/02 without sales with sales charge ($) charge ($) - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class S 17,510 N/A - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class A 17,467 16,639 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class B 17,305 17,305 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class C 17,417 17,417 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUTUAL FUND PERFORMANCE CHANGES OVER TIME.

The fund underperformed its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers 10-Year Municipal Bond Index, which returned 7.24% for the same period. It performed in line with its peer group, the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Fund Category, which averaged a return of 6.00% during the same time frame. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investment Objective and Strategy: Seeks a high level of total return, consisting of current income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with the preservation of capital. Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in tax-exempt securities. The fund expects to maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity of three to 10 years. Fund Inception: October 9, 1985 Net Assets: $147.7 million - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Favorable conditions for fixed-income markets During the past 12 months, conditions were generally favorable for fixed-income securities. The Federal Reserve Board lowered short-term interest rates to bail out a weak economy, which was accentuated by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. In addition, the federal government's announcement last October that it would cease issuing 30-year Treasury bonds propelled fixed-income securities higher on the prospects of a dwindling supply of bonds. While this rally gave way at year end amid signs of robust economic growth, the inability of the economy to sustain its first quarter pace led to further increases in bond prices during the spring quarter. At the end of the fiscal year, bond yields were slightly lower than they had been 12 months before, and prices were correspondingly higher. The supply of municipal bonds rose during the period as a weak economy raised the need for borrowing. 8 However, higher demand more than offset the increased supply and helped municipal bonds increase in value. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Portfolio quality1 % --- AAA 76.5 AA 10.5 A 4.2 BBB and below 4.3 Cash and equivalents 2.4 Non-Rated 2.1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Factors affecting fund performance The fund was aided by its ownership of zero-coupon bonds with maturities between 15 and 20 years. (Long-term zero coupon bonds historically have provided above-average price appreciation during periods of declining interest rates.) Performance was also boosted by the fund's holdings of premium, non-callable bonds, which were in demand during the period. Non-callable bonds are securities that cannot be redeemed prior to the stated maturity date. Because issuers cannot redeem these bonds prior to maturity and reissue new ones at lower rates, non-callable bonds effectively reduced the overall reinvestment risk for the fund. Airline bonds, which declined sharply in value following the terrorist attacks of last September, were a negative influence on the fund. Another factor that hurt the fund's relative showing against its benchmark was our underweighting of securities with maturities in the one- to seven-year range. This shorter-term sector of the market performed especially well in 2001, a period when interest rate cutting by the Fed pulled short-term yields steadily downward.

It's similar to maturity, but because it takes into consideration the entire stream of future principal and interest payments and how long it will take to collect them, it is a more complex and also a more accurate measure of a fund's exposure to changing interest rates. Because we are active duration managers, we tend to use duration as a tactical tool to anticipate or respond to interest rate changes. Because bond prices move in the opposite direction that interest rates are moving, we lower duration when we expect interest rates to rise or we raise duration when we expect interest rates to fall. This adjustment provides the potential to benefit performance. If we are wrong and interest rates rise after we lengthen duration or fall after we shorten duration, fund performance could be hurt. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Looking ahead We believe that the economy will post a gradual recovery, helped by gains in productivity and subdued inflation. We think that third quarter growth in 2002 may be stronger than what will be reported for the second quarter. As the economic cycle shifted into recovery, we reduced the fund's duration, since growth often presents risks to the fixed-income markets. We will continue to manage duration consistent with our economic outlook. (Duration is a measure of the fund's interest rate sensitivity. See sidebar.) Our purchases will focus on premium coupon securities in the 6- to 15-year range, a sector of the market that we believe represents good value going forward. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Portfolio statistics As of 6/30/02 As of 6/30/01 Average duration 6.1 years 6.7 years Average weighted maturity 8.5 years 9.1 years Average weighted coupon 5.68% 5.90% - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10 MUTUAL FUND PERFORMANCE CHANGES OVER TIME.

This performance exceeded the fund's benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, which returned a 6.92% gain for the same period. The fund also outperformed its peer group, the Lipper General Municipal Debt Fund Average, which ended the period up 5.75%. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investment Objective and Strategy: Seeks a high level of total return consistent with prudent risk, consisting of current income exempt from federal income tax and opportunities for capital appreciation. The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowing for investment purposes) in tax-exempt bonds, which primarily are investment grade. Fund Inception: February 22, 1977 Net Assets: $442.7 million - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Favorable conditions for fixed-income During the past 12 months, conditions were generally favorable for fixed-income securities. The Federal Reserve Board lowered short-term interest rates to bail out a weak economy, which was accentuated by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. And the federal government's announcement last October that it would cease issuing 30-year Treasury bonds propelled fixed-income securities higher on the prospects of a dwindling supply of bonds. While this rally gave way amid perceptions of robust economic growth in late 2001, the inability of the economy to sustain its first quarter pace led to further increases in bond prices during the spring quarter. At the end of the fiscal year, bond yields were slightly lower than they had been 12 months before, and prices were correspondingly higher. 13 Top 10 states1 ------------- [bar chart data]: % ---- Georgia 14.2 Illinois 12.2 Massachusetts 10.6 Texas 6.5 Pennsylvania 6.4 New York 5.0 Washington 4.7 California 4.5 Indiana 3.4 Florida 3.3 Security selection helped fund performance Two main factors aided the fund's performance during the past year. One was the fund's ownership of bonds with maturities between 15 and 20 years. The fact that there were relatively steep incremental increases between the yields of bonds in these maturities compared to longer maturities, gave them an attractive risk/reward profile. Premium non-callable bonds were in high demand during the period: a non-call provision means that issuers can not redeem these bonds prior to maturity, an attractive feature that reduces the fund's reinvestment risk. They flourished against a backdrop of declining rates. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Portfolio quality1 - ----------------- % --- AAA 58.2 AA 15.3 A 10.6 BBB and below 9.8 Cash and equivalents 0.5 Non-Rated 5.6 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The second important factor was the structure of some of the fund's holdings. Key positions included zero coupon bonds with maturities between 11 and 20 years and deep discount bonds of even longer maturities. Both categories are especially sensitive to changing interest rates, and they helped fund performance during the declining rate environment that prevailed. The fund was hurt by its ownership of airline bonds, many of which posted sharp declines following last fall's terrorist attacks. (Private corporations can issue municipal bonds to finance projects with a public purpose.) Although the industry recovered somewhat, the bonds remained in negative territory. 14 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Portfolio statistics As of 6/30/02 As of 6/30/01 Average duration 8.6 years 10.7 years Average weighted maturity 14.9 years 16.5 years Average weighted coupon 5.24% 5.38% - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUTUAL FUND PERFORMANCE CHANGES OVER TIME.

Lipper Inc., a widely respected data provider in the industry, calculates an average total return for mutual funds with similar investment objectives as the fund. Tax-exempt investing offers current tax-free income, but it also involves certain risks. Investing in high-yield bonds involves greater credit risks than investing in higher-quality bonds. The value of the fund will be affected by interest rate changes and the creditworthiness of issues held in the fund.

This return exceeded that of the fund's benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond index, which was up 6.92% for the same period. The fund's peer group, the Lipper High-Yield Municipal Debt Fund Category Average, returned 5.23%. Favorable security and sector selection accounted for the fund's strong performance relative to its competition. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investment Objective and Strategy: Seeks a high level of total return consisting of current income exempt from ordinary federal income tax and opportunities for capital appreciation. The fund invests all of its assets in SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio as part of a master fund/feeder fund structure. Under normal circumstances, the portfolio invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in relatively high-yielding securities. Fund Inception: March 5, 1984 Net Assets: $213.3 million - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bond market solid during uncertain times For all of the turmoil of the past 12 months, it was a good year for bonds. Fixed-income investments surged during the fall of 2001 amid the economic uncertainty created by the terrorist attacks on the US and by the announcement that the US Treasury would stop issuing 30-year bonds. That rally encountered resistance beginning in November, when signs of economic recovery fueled concerns that the Federal Reserve might reverse its policy of lower interest rates. However, bonds returned to favor toward the end of the second quarter of 2002, when the stock market fell prey to accounting worries and poor corporate earnings. By the end of the 12-month period, the yield on the 30-year Treasury bond stood at 5.5%, -- one quarter of one percent below the yield on June 30, 2001. The 10-year bond enjoyed an even stronger rally, with yields finishing the 12-month 17 period one-half of one percent lower than where they started. These lower yields mean that bonds gained in value, above and beyond the income they generated during the year. Top 10 states1 - ------------- [bar chart data]: % ---- Florida 10.2 Pennsylvania 7.3 Colorado 7.3 Texas 7.2 Washington 5.2 Massachusetts 5.0 California 4.3 North Carolina 4.1 Indiana 3.9 Georgia 3.6 Performance for the fund Although the higher perceived risks of the high-yield municipal market caused it to lag the broader municipal market, the tone of the market was still positive. The fund was aided by strong performances from inverse floating rate bonds, which adjust their coupon rates higher as interest rates decline, and from hospital bonds, which the fund was able to purchase at attractive price levels in early 2002. Individual selections that aided performance included high-coupon bonds issued by the Pittsylvania, Virginia multitrade Cogeneration facility (3.1% of net assets), and the Tampa Bay Water inverse floating rate bonds (4.5% of net assets), whose refunding in 2001 improved the issue's credit quality and effective yield to maturity. The fund was hurt by its holding of Inland Steel revenue bonds and by its investment in airline revenue bonds, which declined sharply following the September 11th attacks. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Portfolio quality1 - ----------------- % --- AAA 17.0 AA 6.0 A 13.1 BBB 20.4 BB and below 6.0 Cash and equivalents 1.2 Non-Rated 36.3 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recent fund activity During the past six months, we added several high-coupon bonds to the portfolio. Issuers included the Seminole Tribe in Florida 18 (0.4% of net assets), which plans on building a new convention center and casino. The fund obtained some exposure to the manufacturing sector through its purchase of bonds issued by small-aircraft manufacturer Cessna, a division of Textron Corporation (0.7% of net assets). Altogether, we have slowly added to our positions in cyclical industries. Many of these economically sensitive issues are more attractively valued than they were a year ago, especially in light of the progress the economy has made since that time. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Duration Duration is a measure, expressed in years, of interest-rate sensitivity. It's similar to maturity, but because it takes into consideration the entire stream of future principal and interest payments and how long it will take to collect them, it is a more complex and also a more accurate measure of a fund's exposure to changing interest rates. Because we are active duration managers, we tend to use duration as a tactical tool to anticipate or respond to interest rate changes. Because bond prices move in the opposite direction that interest rates are moving, we lower duration when we expect interest rates to rise or we raise duration when we expect interest rates to fall. This adjustment provides the potential to benefit performance. If we are wrong and interest rates rise after we lengthen duration or fall after we shorten duration, fund performance could be hurt. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Outlook We continue to position the fund for a long and slow economic recovery, with little in the way of inflationary pressures. In addition to adding more cyclical names as they come to market, we are keeping the fund's duration low, consistent with our belief that near-term returns will derive more from income than from price appreciation. Duration is a measure of interest rate sensitivity. (See sidebar). We expect to use futures contracts selectively to adjust the duration of the fund when so desired. 19 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Portfolio statistics As of 6/30/02 As of 6/30/01 Average duration 7.7 years 8.4 years Average weighted maturity 17.4 years 18.2 years Average weighted coupon 6.76% 6.68% - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUTUAL FUND PERFORMANCE CHANGES OVER TIME. PLEASE VISIT STEINROE.COM FOR MONTHLY PERFORMANCE UPDATES. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Share price and investment return will vary, so you may have a gain or loss when you sell shares. Total return includes changes in share price and reinvestment of income and capital gains distributions, if any. Portfolio holdings are disclosed as a percentage of SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio as of 6/30/02 and are subject to change. Income distributions are exempt from federal income taxes, but may be subject to federal alternative minimum tax and state and local taxes. Capital gains, if any, are also taxable. The Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged group of investment grade-municipal bonds. Unlike the fund, an index is not an investment, does not incur fees or expenses, and is not professionally managed. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Securities in the fund may not match those in the index. Lipper Inc., a widely respected data provider in the industry, calculates an average total return for mutual funds with similar investment objectives as the fund. Tax-exempt investing offers current tax-free income, but it also involves certain risks. Investing in high-yield bonds involves greater credit risks than investing in higher-quality bonds. The value of the fund will be affected by interest rate changes and the creditworthiness of issues held in the fund. The municipal bond management team seeks to identify opportunities and attempts to react quickly to market changes.

See notes to financial statements. 76-77 SPREAD Notes to Financial Statements Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 2002 Note 1. Accounting Policies Organization: Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund, Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund, Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund and Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund (the "Funds") are series of Liberty-Stein Roe Funds Municipal Trust (the "Trust"), an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund and Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund invest substantially all of their assets in SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio and SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio (the "Portfolios"), respectively. The Portfolios are series of SR&F Base Trust, a Massachusetts common law trust organized under an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated August 23, 1993. SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio commenced operations on February 2, 1998. At commencement, Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund contributed $335,711,000 in securities and other net assets to SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio in exchange for beneficial ownership of the Portfolio. The Portfolios allocate income, expenses, realized and unrealized gains and losses to each investor on a daily basis, based on methods in compliance with the Internal Revenue Service. At June 30, 2002, Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund owned 86.8 % of SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio; and Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund owned 99.9% of SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio. Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund offers two classes of shares: Class A and Class S shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. A 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge is assessed on redemptions made within eighteen months on an original purchase of $1 million to $25 million. Class S shares are offered continuously at 78 net asset value. There are certain restrictions on the purchase of Class S shares, as described in the prospectus. Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund offers four classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class S. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. A 1.00% contingent deferred sales charge is assessed to Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge on redemptions made within eighteen months on an original purchase of $1 million to $25 million. Class B shares are subject to an annual distribution fee and a contingent deferred sales charge. Class B shares will convert to Class A shares in three, four, or eight years after purchase, depending on the program under which shares were purchased. Class C shares are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge on redemptions made within one year after purchase and an annual distribution fee. Class S shares are offered continuously at net asset value. There are certain restrictions on the purchase of Class S shares, as described in the Fund's prospectus. On January 26, 2001, Liberty Intermediate Tax Exempt Fund merged into Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund as follows: Liberty Intermediate Tax-Exempt Fund Unrealized Shares Issued Net Assets Received Appreciation(1) - ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1,982,265 $22,574,044 $1,432,367 Net Assets of Net Assets of Stein Roe Liberty Intermediate Intermediate Net Assets of Municipals Tax-Exempt Fund the Fund Fund prior immediately prior immediately after to combination to combination combination - ----------------------------------------------------------------- $136,775,894 $22,574,044 $159,349,938 1 Unrealized appreciation is included in the Mutual Fund Net Assets Received amount shown above. 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 revenue and expenses for the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolios and Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. 79 Security Valuations: Municipal securities are valued at a fair value using a procedure determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"), which has authorized the use of bid valuations provided by a pricing service, except for SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio. This Portfolio utilizes the amortized cost method to value its investments. This technique approximates market value and involves valuing a security initially at cost and, thereafter, assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. In the event that a deviation of 0.50% or more exists between Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund's $1.00 per share net asset value, calculated at amortized cost, and the net asset value calculated by reference to market quotations, its Trustees would consider what action, if any, should be taken. Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund attempts to maintain a per-share net asset value of $1.00, which management believes will be possible under most conditions. Futures contracts are valued based on the difference between the last sale price and the opening price of the contract. Other securities and assets are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Trustees. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the transaction date. The values of such securities are subject to market fluctuations during this period. None of the Funds or the Portfolios owned when-issued or delayed delivery purchase commitments as of June 30, 2002. Determination of Class Net Asset Values and Financial Highlights: All income, expenses (other than Class A, Class B and Class C service fees and the Class B and Class C distribution fees, if applicable), and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class 80 proportionately on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. In addition, Class A, Class B and Class C net investment income per share data reflects the service fee per share applicable to Class A, Class B and Class C shares and the distribution fee per share applicable to Class B and Class C shares only. Class A, Class B and Class C ratios are calculated by adjusting the expense and net investment income ratios for the Fund for the entire period by the service fee applicable to Class A, Class B and Class C shares and the distribution fees applicable to Class B and Class C shares only. Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date. Interest income, including discount accretion and premium amortization, is recorded daily on the accrual basis. Realized gains or losses from investment transactions are reported on an identified cost basis. Effective July 1, 2001, the Portfolios adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing and accreting premium and discount on all debt securities. The cumulative effect of this accounting change did not impact total net assets of the Portfolio or Funds, but resulted in reclassifications as follows: Decrease In Net Unrealized Increase Appreciation/ in Cost Depreciation Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund $ 93,147 $ (93,147) Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund 101,620 (101,620) SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio 95,558 (95,558) Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund 95,558 (95,558) 81 The effect of this change for the year ended June 30, 2002, did not impact the total net assets of the Portfolio or Funds, but resulted in reclassifications as follows: Increase/ Decrease Increase Net Unrealized Decrease In Net Investment Appreciation/ Net Realized Income Depreciation Gains/Losses Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund $12,630 $16,607 $(29,237) Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund 51,438 (8,663) (42,775) SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio 95,454 (91,546) (3,908) Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund 95,454 (91,546) (3,908) The Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights for prior periods have not been restated to reflect this change. Distributions to Shareholders: Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. Capital gains distributions, if any, are distributed annually. Dividends are determined in accordance with income tax principles, which may treat certain transactions differently than generally accepted accounting principles. Distributions in excess of tax basis earnings are reported in the financial statements as a return of capital. Permanent differences in the recognition or classification of income between the financial statements and tax earnings are reclassified to paid-in capital. Federal Income Taxes: No provision is made for federal income taxes since (a) the Funds elect to be taxed as "regulated investment companies" and make distributions to their shareholders to be relieved of all federal income taxes under provisions of current federal tax law; and (b) the Portfolios are treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes and all of their income is allocated to their owners based on methods in compliance with the Internal Revenue Service. Dividends paid from 82 net investment income by the Funds constitute tax-exempt interest that is not taxable for federal income tax purposes; however, a portion of the dividends paid may be inclusive in the alternative minimum tax calculation. Futures Contracts: Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund, Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund and SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio may enter into futures contracts to either hedge against expected declines of their portfolio securities or as a temporary substitute for the purchase of individual bonds. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market at the time a fund seeks to close out a contract, and changes in the value of the futures contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the portfolio securities being hedged. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund/Portfolio deposits cash or securities with its custodian in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin requirements. Subsequent payments are made or received by the Fund/Portfolio equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin payable or receivable and offset in unrealized gains or losses. The Fund/Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires. Note 2. Federal Tax Information Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for futures and options contracts, interest on defaulted bonds, non-deductable expenses and discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations. 83 For the year ended June 30, 2002, permanent items identified and reclassified among the components of net assets are as follows: Undistributed Accumulated Net Investment Net Realized Paid-In Income (Loss) Gains (Losses) Capital Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund $-- $1,060 ($1,060) Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund $9,274 ($9,275) $1 Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund $31,464 ($31,468) $4 Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund $21,012 $5,899 ($26,911) Net investment income, net realized gains(losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.

Portfolio Composition The Funds and the Portfolios invest in municipal securities including, but not limited to, general obligation bonds, revenue bonds and escrowed bonds (i.e., bonds that have been refinanced, the proceeds of which have been invested in U.S. or state and local government obligations that are set aside to pay off the original issue at the first call date or maturity). See Investment Portfolios for information regarding breakdown of securities held by type at June 30, 2002. The Funds and the Portfolios hold investments that are insured by private insurers who guarantee payment of principal and interest in the 85 event of default. At June 30, 2002, investments in these securities for Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund, Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund and SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio represented 62.9%, 51.6% and 19.5% of holdings, respectively. SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio invests in certain short-term securities that are backed by bank letters of credit used to provide liquidity to the issuer and/or additional security in the event of default. At June 30, 2002, 78.8% of the Portfolio was backed by letters of credit. See the Portfolio of Investments for each Fund or Portfolio for additional information regarding portfolio composition. Note 4. Fees and Compensations Paid to Affiliates Management & Administrative Fees: The Funds and the Portfolios pay monthly management and administrative fees, computed and accrued daily, to Stein Roe & Farnham, Incorporated (the "Advisor"), for its services as investment advisor and manager. The management fee for SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio is computed at an annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets. The management fee for each of Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund and SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio is 0.45% of the first $100 million of average daily net assets, 0.425% of the next $100 million and 0.40% thereafter. The management fee for Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund is 0.45% of the first $100 million of average daily net assets, 0.425% of the next $100 million, 0.40% of the next $800 million and 0.375% thereafter. On November 1, 2001, Liberty Financial Companies, Inc., the former parent of the Advisor, completed the sale of its asset management business, including the Advisor to a subsidiary of FleetBoston Financial Corporation. This transaction resulted in a change of control of the Advisor and, therefore, an assignment of the Advisor's investment advisory contract with the Funds and the Portfolios. The Funds and the Portfolios had obtained approval of a new investment advisory contract by the Funds' Board of Trustees and Fund 86 shareholders, which became effective upon completion of the sale. The new contract is identical to the prior contract in all material respects except for their effective and termination dates. The administrative fee for the Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund is computed at an annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.20% of average daily net assets for the next $500 million and 0.15% thereafter. The administrative fee for each of Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund and Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund is computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the first $100 million of average daily net assets, 0.125% of the next $100 million and 0.10% thereafter. The administrative fee for Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund is 0.15% of the first $100 million of average daily net assets, 0.125% of the next $100 million, 0.10% of the next $800 million and 0.075% thereafter. Bookkeeping Fees: The Advisor is responsible for providing pricing and bookkeeping services to the Portfolios and the Funds under Pricing and Bookkeeping Agreements. Under a separate agreement (the "Outsourcing Agreement"), the Advisor has delegated those functions to State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street"). The Advisor pays fees to State Street under the Outsourcing Agreement. Under its pricing and bookkeeping agreements with the SR&F Base Trust, on behalf of the Portfolios and Funds, the Advisor receives from each Portfolio and each of Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund and Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund, an annual flat fee of $10,000; from each of Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund and Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund an annual flat fee of $5,000; and in any month that a Fund's average daily net assets are more than $50 million, a monthly fee equal to the average daily net assets of the Fund for that month multiplied by a fee rate that is calculated by taking into account the fees payable to State Street under the Outsourcing Agreement. 87 Transfer Agent Fees: Liberty Funds Services, Inc. (the "Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of the Advisor, provides shareholder services for a monthly fee equal to 0.06% annually of each Fund's average daily net assets plus charges based on the number of shareholder accounts and transactions. The Transfer Agent also receives reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses. The Transfer Agent receives a fixed fee of $6,000 annually from each of the Portfolios. Underwriting discounts, service and distribution fees: Liberty Funds Distributor, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of the Advisor, is Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund's principal underwriter. For the year ended June 30, 2002, the Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund has been advised that the Distributor did not receive any contingent deferred sales charges ("CDSC") of Class B or Class C Share redemptions. The CDSC and the fees received from the Plan are used principally as repayment to the Distributor for amounts paid by the Distributor to dealers who sold such shares. The Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund has adopted a 12b-1 plan (the "Plan"), which requires the payment of a monthly service fee to the Distributor equal to 0.20% annually on the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B and Class C as of the 20th of each month. The Plan also requires the payment of a monthly distribution fee to the Distributor equal to 0.65% annually of the average daily net assets attributable to Class B shares and Class C shares, only. The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the Class C share distribution fee so that it does not exceed 0.20% annually. The Stein Roe High Yield Municipals Fund has adopted a 12b-1 plan (the "Plan"), which requires the payment of a monthly service fee to the Distributor equal to 0.25% annually of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A on the 20th of each month. 88 The CDSC and fees received from the Plans are used principally as repayment to the Distributor for amounts paid by the Distributor to dealers who sold such shares. Expense Limits: The Advisor has agreed to reimburse Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund and Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund for expenses in excess of 0.70% of average daily net assets. This agreement may be modified or terminated by the Advisor at any time. Other: Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are also officers of the Advisor. No remuneration was paid by the Trust to any other trustee or officer of the Trust who is affiliated with the Advisor. The Portfolios and Funds have an agreement with their custodian bank under which custody fees were reduced by balance credits for the year ended June 30, 2002. The Portfolios and Funds could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement. The amounts were as follows: SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio $1,728 Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund $2,536 Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund $5,921 SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio $2,795 Note 5. Investment Transactions The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales or maturities of securities, excluding short-term obligations, for the year ended June 30, 2002, were as follows: Purchases Sales Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund $33,628,187 $40,666,584 Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund 75,070,023 90,044,384 SR&F High-Yield Municipals Portfolio 33,584,763 44,667,075 89 Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) at June 30, 2002, for federal income tax purposes, was: Stein Roe Stein Roe SR&F Intermediate Managed High-Yield Municipals Municipals Municipals Fund Fund Portfolio Gross unrealized appreciation $11,217,556 $40,608,678 $12,568,281 Gross unrealized depreciation (74,451) (5,135,449) (9,726,809) ----------- ------------ ------------ Net unrealized appreciation $11,143,105 $35,473,229 $ 2,841,472 =========== ============ ============ Note 6. Line of Credit The Trust (excluding the Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund, Liberty High Income Municipals Fund-Class A, Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund) and the SR&F Base Trust (excluding the SR&F Cash Reserve Portfolio and SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio) (collectively, the "Trusts") participate in an unsecured line of credit agreement provided by the custodian bank. The line of credit entitles the Trusts to borrow from the custodian at any time upon notice from the Trusts. The borrowings available to the Trusts for the line of credit is $200 million. Borrowings may be made to temporarily finance the repurchase of Fund shares. Interest is charged to each Trust and, ultimately, each Fund based on its borrowings at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% per year. In addition, a commitment fee of 0.10% per annum on each Fund's borrowings shall be paid quarterly by each Fund based on the relative asset size of each Fund. The commitment fee is included in "Other" expenses on the Statements of Operations. Because several investment companies participate, there is no assurance that an individual Fund will have access to the entire letter of credit at any particular time. For the year ended June 30, 2002, the Trusts had no borrowings under the agreement. Note 7. Subsequent Events On July 15, 2002, Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund acquired all the net assets of Liberty High Yield Municipals Fund 90 pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by Liberty High Yield Municipals Fund shareholders on June 28, 2002. All assets and liabilities of Liberty High Yield Municipals Fund have been transferred to Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund in a tax-free exchange and shareholders of Liberty High Yield Municipals Fund have received shares of Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund in exchange for their shares as follows: Stein Roe High-Yield Liberty High Yield Municipals Fund Municipals Fund Unrealized Shares Issued Net Assets Received Appreciation/Depreciation1 12,328,081 $139,430,597 $2,690,498 Net Assets of Net Assets of Net Assets of Stein Roe High- Liberty High Yield Stein Roe High- Yield Municipals Municipals Fund Yield Municipals Fund Fund Prior to Immediately Prior Immediately Combination to Combination After Combination $218,007,534 $139,430,597 $357,438,131 1 Unrealized appreciation/depreciation is included in the Net Assets Received amount above. Effective July 15, 2002, Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund was renamed Liberty High Yield Municipal Fund. On June 28, 2002, pursuant to a plan of reorganization, the shareholders of the Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund (the "Fund") approved a proposal to merge the Fund into the Liberty Municipal Money Market Fund (the "Acquiring Fund"). Effective July 15, 2002, all assets and liabilities of the Fund have been transferred to the Acquiring Fund in a tax-free exchange and shareholders received shares of the Acquiring Fund in exchange for their Fund shares. Effective July 15, 2002, prior to the reorganization described above, the pro-rata share of net assets of the SR&F High Yield Municipal Portfolio were distributed to the Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund and the pro-rata share of net assets of the SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio were distributed to the Liberty Municipal Money Market Fund based on allocation methods in compliance with the Internal Revenue Service.
