President's Message

Dear Shareholder:

I'm pleased to present the Semi-Annual Report to Shareholders for the Hibernia Funds. The Report covers the activity of the Hibernia Funds over the six-month period from September 1, 2002 through February 28, 2003. It includes an interview with each fund's portfolio manager, results of the last meeting of shareholders, as well as a complete list of portfolio holdings and financial statements for each fund.

Over the six-month reporting period, investors experienced "more of the same" from stocks as well as bonds. Continued uncertainty about the strength of the economy, a severe winter, and, most notably, the Iraq conflict were among the factors that combined to send stock prices lower across the board. As a result, the Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 was down 7.29%, the S&P 400 Mid Cap was down 7.79% and the S&P Small Cap 600 was down 7.94%.* The returns for the Hibernia stock funds--Hibernia Capital Appreciation Fund and Hibernia Mid Cap Equity Fund--while negative, were competitive with their benchmarks.

In contrast, bonds continued to deliver positive returns. The Hibernia Total Return Bond Fund, Hibernia Louisiana Municipal Income Fund and Hibernia U.S. Government Income Fund, in addition to providing high levels of income, and diversification to an investor's stock portfolio.

And, although interest rates have been at historical lows, Hibernia money market funds continue to provide a highly conservative haven where your cash can earn a competitive level of income on a daily basis. When rates eventually move upward, money market fund yields will respond in kind.

In times like these, diversification is a critically important strategy. As we've seen with stocks and bonds, major asset classes rarely move in the same direction. Diversifying your investments among stocks, bonds and money market securities--in a combination consistent with your financial goals, time frame and risk tolerance--gives you the opportunity to take part in gains and offset losses wherever they may occur.

Thank you for keeping your money working in one or more key financial markets through the professional management and diversification of the Hibernia Funds. We're committed to providing you with the highest level of service as we keep you up-to-date on your investment progress.

Sincerely,

/s/ Peter J. Germain

Management Discussion & Analysis

 

Hibernia Capital Appreciation Fund
Semi-Annual Report/6-month period from September 1, 2002 through February 28, 2003

What are your comments on the six-month reporting period for stocks, which, thanks to a range of economic and geopolitical factors, was one of continued weakness?

The slow pace of economic recovery coupled with an ongoing threat of war caused a negative return for stocks during the reporting period. Resolution of these worries will improve the market environment in the coming months.

In this environment, what was the fund's total return for the reporting period?

The fund's Class A Shares total return was (7.55)% for the reporting period ended February 28, 2003 on a net asset value basis.* The S&P 500 Index return was (7.29)% for the same period.

While negative news dominates the short-term picture, do we have any reasons to anticipate a recovery later this year?

The anticipated war with Iraq dominates the short term picture. The possibility of an improving economy could lift stock prices later in the year.

* Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total return, based on offering price, for Class A Shares was (11.72)% for the reporting period. Total returns, based on net asset value and redemption value, for Class B Shares were (7.89)% and (12.95)%, respectively, for the reporting period. The maximum sales charge is 4.50% for Class A Shares. The maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 5.50% for Class B Shares.

 

Hibernia Louisiana Municipal Income Fund
Semi-Annual Report/6-month period from September 1, 2002 through February 28, 2003

What are your comments on the municipal bond market, which has been very good to investors, during the first half of the fund's fiscal year?

Municipal investors were treated to more strong bond market returns in the six months ended February 28, 2003. Municipal bond prices continued to rise while investors also enjoyed very attractive after-tax income returns. Often times during the period municipal bond yields rivaled those found in the treasury market on a before tax basis. When compared after tax municipal bonds were a winner.

How did the fund perform on a total return and income basis?

During the six month reporting period ended February 28, 2003, the fund produced a total rate of return of 3.49%. Price appreciation accounted for 0.61% of the performance while interest income was responsible for 2.88%.

Do you expect that this historically low rate environment will end this year, and what are the ramifications for municipal bonds?

In our view the US economy will show signs of recovery in the second half of 2003. The improving economy will likely translate into interest rates drifting gradually higher over time. Municipal demand however is expected to remain brisk while municipal supply shrinks. The dynamics of the municipal market overall seem to indicate only a slight upward bias in interest rates.

* Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total return for Class A Shares, based on offering price, was 0.41%, for the reporting period. Total returns, based on net asset value and redemption value, for Class B Shares were 3.06% and (2.44)%, respectively, for the reporting period. The maximum sales charge is 3.00% for Class A Shares. The maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 5.50% for Class B Shares. As of February 28, 2003, the fund's 30-day SEC yield for Class A Shares was 3.29% based on offering price and 3.39% based on net asset value. The 30-day SEC yield for Class B Shares was 2.54% based on net asset value. Income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax.

 

Hibernia Mid Cap Equity Fund
Semi-Annual Report/6-month period from September 1, 2002 through February 28, 2003

What are your comments on the market conditions that combined to send stocks lower during the six-month reporting period ended February 28, 2003?

The combination of the slow economic recovery, and the ever present fear of terrorist attack and possible war with Iraq continued to drive stock prices lower during the reporting period.

Although returns were negative, how did the fund perform on a relative basis over the reporting period?

The fund's Class A Shares a total return was (6.98)% for the reporting period ended February 28, 2003, on a net asset value basis.* While negative, this compared favorably to the (7.79)% return for the S&P 400 Midcap Index.

At this point, with crises dominating the headlines, are any elements in place that could suggest a turnaround later in the year?

A quick and decisive conclusion to the war with Iraq combined with improvement in the economy could turn the tide later in the year.

* Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total return based on offering price, for Class A Shares was (11.17)% for the reporting period. Total returns, based on net asset value and redemption value, for Class B Shares was (7.37)%, and (12.47)%, respectively, for the reporting period. The maximum sales charge is 4.50% for Class A Shares. The maximum contingent deferred sales charge is 5.50% for Class B Shares.

 

Hibernia Total Return Bond Fund
Semi-Annual Report/6-month period from September 1, 2002 through February 28, 2003

With rates at historic lows, the bond market continued to deliver positive returns to investors during the six-month reporting period. What are your comments?

The bond market bulls continued to confound skeptics over the past six months as bond prices pushed higher. Economic uncertainty, low inflation and the prospect of war were the principal reasons behind the decline in interest rates to levels not seen in forty years.

How did the fund perform in terms of its income stream and total return?

During the six month reporting period ended February 28, 2003 the fund produced a total rate of return of 3.74%. Price appreciation accounted for 1.18% of the performance and interest income was responsible for 2.56%.*

Did you make any significant changes to the fund's allocation among government and corporate bonds?

Our strategy over the past several months has been to begin positioning the portfolio for the next economic upturn and a modest rise in interest rates. With this in mind we have emphasized corporate and mortgage security purchases while trimming our treasury holdings.

Bonds have been on fire for the past three years, but with rates now at historic lows, what do you see ahead for the bond market?

We anticipate a modest economic upturn with a commensurate modest rise in interest rates later this year. In this scenario bond prices are likely to drift lower over time. We believe a soft global economy and continued low inflation however will prevent any major declines in prices.

* Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total return, based on offering price, was 0.67%, for the reporting period. The maximum sales charge is 3.00% for the fund. As of February 28, 2003, the 30-day SEC yield was 2.95% at offering price and 3.04% at net asset value.

 

Hibernia U.S. Government Income Fund
Semi-Annual Report/6-month period from September 1, 2002 through February 28, 2003

What are your comments on the bond market, which continued to produce positive returns in a historically low interest rate environment?

The bond market continued to perform well in the recent reporting period, as economic signals continued to show a rather muddied picture of the health of the economy. A so-far anemic recovery has continued to put downward pressure on the general level of interest rates which has helped to fuel continued above average fixed-income returns.

On a total return and income basis, how did the fund perform?

The fund achieved a total return of 3.39% for the six-month reporting period ended February 28, 2003 at net asset value.* The 30-day SEC yield was 3.18% based on offering price and 3.28% based on net asset value.

After an extended run of positive performance from bonds, what may the rest of 2003 hold for investors?

With some signs of economic strengthening beginning to take hold--nascent recovery in business investment spending, continued strength in the housing sector, persistently higher retail sales--interest rates could drift upward for the balance of the calendar year. Bond investors should expect that the days of appreciation of bond values is over for the near-term future.

* Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Total return, based on offering price, was 0.33% for the reporting period. The maximum sales charge is 3.00% for the fund.

 

Hibernia Cash Reserve Fund
Semi-Annual Report/6-month period from September 1, 2002 through February 28, 2003

What are your comments on the short-term marketplace, which has seen rates drop to historic lows?

Short-term rates have remained at historic lows due to the lack of clear signs of robust health in the domestic economy. While some indicators point to strength, others point to weakness. This is evidenced by the lack of direction about the current "bias" at the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Bank (the "Fed"). Currently resting at neutral, the Fed has said that a definitive viewpoint about the direction of economic movement in the near-term is impossible to state.

As a result, where did the 7-day net yield of the fund stand at the beginning and end of the reporting period ending February 28, 2003?

The 7-day net yield for Class A Shares at the beginning of the reporting period was 1.23% and 0.75% at the end of the six-month reporting period.

What was your strategy in terms of the fund's portfolio mix and average maturity during the reporting period?

Portfolio weighted average maturity has been lengthened to around 40 - 50 days, and we have attempted to maximize the yield based on the shape of the money-market yield curve without taking on undue risk. Currently U.S. Government Agency securities make up a larger than normal portion of the holdings, which are still heavily weighted to top-tier commercial paper.

The plus side of money market funds is that, when rates do rise, investors will quickly experience the ride up. What are the prospects for a turnaround in rates through 2003?

Although our outlook calls for a strengthening economy, and resulting upward pressure on longer-term note and bond yields, money-market investors may see rates remain low for the near future as the Fed remains on hold and waits for clearly convincing signs of strength. The overall prospects for a turnaround are probably mixed, at best.

* An investment in money market funds is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although money market funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these funds.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Yield will vary. The 7-day net yield for Class B Shares was 0.98% at the beginning of the reporting period and 0.50% at the end of the reporting period. Yields quoted for Money Market funds most closely reflect the fund's current earnings.

 

Hibernia U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund
Semi-Annual Report/6-month period from September 1, 2002 through February 28, 2003

What are your comments on the history-making short-term rate environment during the first half of the fund's fiscal year?

Short-term rates have remained at historic lows due to the lack of clear signs of robust health in the domestic economy. While some indicators point to strength, others point to weakness. This is evidenced by the lack of direction about the current "bias" at the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve Bank (the "Fed"). Currently resting at neutral, the Fed has said that a definitive viewpoint about the direction of economic movement in the near-term is impossible to state.

As a result, where did the 7-day net yield of Hibernia U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund stand at the beginning and end of the reporting period?

The 7-day net yield at the beginning of the reporting period was 1.10% and 0.56% at the end of the reporting period.

What was your strategy in terms of the fund's portfolio during the reporting period?

Portfolio weighted average maturity has been lengthened to around 40 - 50 days, and we have attempted to maximize the yield based on the shape of the money-market yield curve without taking on undue risk.

After an extended period of low yields, what are the prospects for a turnaround in rates some time in 2003?

Although our outlook calls for a strengthening economy, and resulting upward pressure on longer-term note and bond yields, money-market investors may see rates remain low for the near future as the Fed remains on hold and waits for clearly convincing signs of strength. The overall prospects for a turnaround are probably mixed, at best.

(1)   Based on net asset value, which does not reflect the sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge, if applicable.
(2)   This voluntary expense decrease is reflected in both the expense and net investment income ratios.
(3)   Amount is less than $0.01 per share.
(4)   These distributions in excess of net investment income were a result of certain book and tax timing differences. These distributions do not represent a return of capital for federal tax purposes.
(5)   Six months ended February 28, 2003 (unaudited).
(6)   Per share information based on average shares oustanding.
(7)   Effective September 1, 2001 the Hibernia Louisiana Municipal Income Fund adopted the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment companies and began accreting short and long term discounts on debt securities. For the period ended August 31, 2002 this change had no effect on net investment income per share or net realized and unrealized gain per share, but increased the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 4.58% to 4.59% for Class A Shares and increased the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 3.75% to 3.76% for Class B Shares. Per share, ratios and supplemental data for periods prior to September 1, 2001 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.

(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

Investment Valuations--Municipal bonds are valued by an independent pricing service, taking into consideration yield, liquidity, risk, credit quality, coupon, maturity, type of issue and any other factors or market data the pricing service deems relevant. U.S. government securities, listed corporate bonds, and other fixed income and asset-backed securities are generally valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked price as furnished by an independent pricing service. Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. Cash Reserve Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund use the amortized cost method to value portfolio securities in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"). For Capital Appreciation Fund, Louisiana Municipal Income Fund, Mid Cap Equity Fund, Total Return Bond Fund and U.S. Government Income Fund, short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities purchased with remaining maturities of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Funds (the "Trustees"). Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value.

Repurchase Agreements--It is the policy of the Funds to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Funds to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.

The Funds will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Funds' adviser to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Trustees. The Funds, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.

Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions--Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. Some of the Funds offer two classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Funds based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.

Premium and Discount Amortization/Paydown Gains and Losses--All premiums and discount are amortized/accreted. Gains and losses realized on principal payment of mortgage-backed securities (paydown gains and losses) are classified as part of investment income.

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

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

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

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

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

 

(3) CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICY

Effective September 1, 2001, the Trust adopted the provisions of the revised American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies (the "Guide"). For financial statement purposes, the revised Guide requires the Funds to amortize premium and discount on all fixed income securities and to classify gains and losses realized on principal payments received on mortgage-backed securities (pay-down gains and losses) as part of investment income.

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

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable primarily to the amortization/accretion tax elections on fixed income securities.

At August 31, 2002, Capital Appreciation Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund and Cash Reserve Fund had capital loss carryforwards, as noted below, which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforwards will expire as follows:

(8) CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

 

Since Louisiana Municipal Income Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable general tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at February 28, 2003, 75.6% of the securities in the portfolio of investments were backed by letters of credit or bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies. The value of investments insured by or supported (backed) by a letter of credit from any one institution or agency did not exceed 27.2% of total investments.
