PORTFOLIO MANAGERS’ COMMENTS

Market Commentary, Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2003

At one point in the past year (early October) it looked like we were living the “sum of all fears.” The economy was thought to be on the verge of deflation and/or a double-dip recession, short-term Treasury yields had plunged to levels not seen in over 40 years, credit spreads spiked to levels not seen since the Depression, equity prices had lost almost half of the value they held in early 2000, and a sharply contested war with Iraq seemed inevitable. Credit markets were rocked by a succession of corporate governance scandals, and defaults were many and huge. The mortgage market witnessed wave after wave of refinancings, at a pace once thought impossible, as mortgage interest rates fell 150 basis points.A Real yields fell, giving Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities’ (“TIPS”) investors an impressive 18% return. Consumer price inflation rose from 1.5% to 3%, fueled by soaring oil prices, which in turn were driven by Middle East tensions and massive strikes in Venezuela. The dollar lost almost 20% of its value against other major currencies as investors’ confidence in the U.S. economy was deeply shaken. In the midst of almost unprecedented turmoil, the bond market delivered impressive returns. Credit spreads rebounded sharply in the second half of the fiscal year, as the market’s fears of catastrophe were allayed and as the Fed delivered another dose of monetary ease, cutting the Fed funds rate to 1.25%, and vowed to fight deflation tooth and nail should it rear its ugly head. As the dust settled, investment grade credits and emerging market bonds delivered total returns of 13.5%. High yield bonds recovered impressively toward the end, but earlier defaults and wider spreads limited total returns to only 4.3%. Mortgage-backed bonds did surprisingly well in light of the pace of refinancings, delivering returns that exceeded their initial coupon by about 150 basis points.

 

Performance Information

More specific information on the performance of each Fund can be found on the following pages.

 

The returns shown on the following pages are based on historical results and are not intended to indicate future performance. Total return measures investment performance in terms of appreciation or depreciation in a Fund’s net asset value per share, plus dividends and any capital gain distributions. It assumes that dividends and distributions were reinvested at the time they were paid. The investment return and principal value of an investment in each of these Funds will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Average annual returns tend to smooth out variations in a Fund’s return, so they differ from actual year-to-year results. No adjustment has been made for any income taxes payable by shareholders.

 

The following graphs and tables compare each Fund’s total returns against that of an appropriate broad-based securities market index. The lines illustrate the cumulative total return of an initial $1,000,000 investment for the periods indicated. The line for each Fund represents the total return after deducting all Fund investment management and other administrative expenses and the transaction costs of buying and selling securities. The line representing the securities market index does not include any transaction costs associated with buying and selling securities in the index or other investment management or administrative expenses.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Western Asset Intermediate Portfolio

 

The impact of market conditions on the Fund’s performance was generally positive in the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, since Treasury yields fell significantly. Investment strategies produced mixed returns, as the Fund’s total return of 11.4% trailed that of its benchmark, the Lehman Intermediate Government/Credit Bond Index, which recorded a total return of 11.7%. A long duration posture held throughout the period benefited from lower interest rates, but this was largely offset by the steepening of the yield curve, which disadvantaged the Fund’s emphasis on longer maturities. A moderate exposure to Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) had a positive impact on returns as real yields fell. Moderate exposure to the mortgage-backed sector contributed to performance as spreads narrowed. Corporate overweighting benefited from tighter spreads, but our lower-quality bias suffered from weaker relative performance. Additionally, much of the benefit of tighter spreads was eroded by the impact of several negative credit events.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Western Asset Core Portfolio

 

The impact of market conditions on the Fund’s performance was generally positive in the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, since Treasury yields fell significantly. Investment strategies produced mixed returns, as the Fund’s Institutional Class total return of 11.2% trailed that of its benchmark, the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index, which recorded a total return of 11.7%. The Fund’s Financial Intermediary Class recorded a total return of 10.8%. A long duration posture held throughout the period benefited from lower interest rates, but this was largely offset by the steepening of the yield curve, which disadvantaged the Fund’s emphasis on longer maturities. A moderate exposure to Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) had a positive impact on returns as real yields fell. Overweighting to the mortgage-backed sector also contributed to performance as spreads narrowed. Corporate overweighting benefited from tighter spreads, but our lower-quality bias suffered from weaker relative performance. Additionally, much of the benefit of tighter spreads was eroded by the impact of several negative credit events.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Western Asset Core Plus Portfolio

 

The impact of market conditions on the Fund’s performance was generally positive in the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, since Treasury yields fell significantly, although credit spreads experienced mixed results. Investment strategies produced mixed but generally positive returns, as the Fund’s Institutional Class total return of 11.8% edged out that of its benchmark, the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index, which recorded a total return of 11.7%. The Fund’s Financial Intermediary Class recorded a total return of 11.6%. A long duration posture held throughout the period benefited from lower interest rates, but this was largely offset by the steepening of the yield curve, which disadvantaged the Fund’s emphasis on longer maturities. Overweighting to the mortgage-backed sector contributed to performance as spreads narrowed. Corporate overweighting benefited from tighter spreads, but our lower quality bias suffered from weaker relative performance. Additionally, much of the benefit of tighter spreads was eroded by the impact of several negative credit events. A moderate exposure to Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (“TIPS”) had a positive impact on returns as real yields fell. Emerging market debt exposure made a positive contribution to returns as high yields offset moderately wider spreads, and our exposure to Brazilian bonds benefited from strong relative performance. High yield exposure detracted from performance as spreads on balance widened. Non-dollar exposure was a modest positive, and our decision to leave some currency exposure unhedged was rewarded as the dollar weakened.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Western Asset Inflation Indexed Bond Portfolio

 

The impact of market conditions on the Fund’s performance was positive in the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, as real yields fell across the board and the rate of consumer price inflation, a source of Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities’ (“TIPS”) total returns, rose from 1.5% to 3%. With strategies producing mixed results, the Fund’s total return of 17.6% trailed that of its benchmark, the Lehman U.S. Treasury Inflation Notes Index, which recorded a total return of 18.1%. The Fund was nearly fully invested in TIPS throughout the period. The manager’s decision to hold a modestly long duration for most of the year added to returns as real yields fell, but this was more than offset by a decision to emphasize longer maturities in anticipation of a flatter real yield curve, since the curve steepened significantly over the course of the period as the decline in short-term real rates far outpaced the decline in long-term real rates.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Western Asset High Yield Portfolio

 

For the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, the Lehman High Yield Index returned 4.3%, the Index’s best annual performance since March 1998. The Fund returned 2.2% for the period. The positive absolute return was attained despite the option-adjusted spread for the asset class widening from 627 basis pointsH to 723 basis points over the period, according to Lehman. The sharp drop in Treasury rates was responsible for the drop in the high yield market’s yield-to-maturity dropping from 11.8% to 10.6% for the year. During the period from March 31, 2002 to June 30, 2002, the high yield sector returned -6.4%, including June, which was the sector’s worst performing month on record at -7.4%. Poor performance was driven by the flood of more than $64 billion in fallen angel supply (issues entering the index due to a downgrade below investment grade) and discoveries of corporate malfeasance at large corporations such as Qwest and WorldCom. From June 30, 2002 to September 30, 2002, the sector returned -2.9% due to negative investor sentiment bolstered by the ongoing slide in equity prices, continued massive supply of fallen angels, and approximately $1 billion in high yield mutual fund redemptions. During the second half of the fiscal year, September 30, 2002 to March 31, 2003, the market rallied sharply, trading up 14.9% as improving corporate earning outlooks, increasing mutual fund inflows and reduced new issue and fallen angel supply encouraged investors to add high yield risk to their portfolios. The Fund’s performance was hurt by an underweight position in a few outperforming industries (e.g., utilities, 5.8%; and consumer cyclical, 9.2%) and an overweight in a number of underperforming industries (e.g., health care, -1.4%; and wireline, -26.9%). Performance was enhanced by overweights to certain outperforming industries (e.g., capital goods, 14.8%; and media non-cable, 11.6%).

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Western Asset Non-U.S. Fixed Income Portfolio

 

Portfolio strategies produced positive results over the past year. The Fund’s total return in the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, was 19.3%, significantly exceeding its benchmark, the Salomon World Government ex-U.S. Index (Hedged), which returned 8.7%. The Fund employed three key strategies. First, there was a significant underweight to the Japanese market, which offered very low yields, in favor of a large overweight to European markets, which outperformed Japan as yields fell more significantly in Europe. Exposure was concentrated in bonds from continental European markets, Canada, Denmark, Sweden, Norway and the U.K.  Issues were mainly government, with a few select high grade non-government issues. Second, the Fund maintained a significant long duration position throughout the year, especially in short-dated securities, which benefited from interest rate cuts in Europe. Third, the Fund held some unhedged euro-denominated bonds, which benefited from significant appreciation of the euro currency versus the dollar.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts in Thousands)

 

1. Significant Accounting Policies:

Western Asset Funds, Inc. (“Corporation”), consisting of Western Asset Intermediate Portfolio (“Intermediate”), Western Asset Core Portfolio (“Core”), Western Asset Core Plus Portfolio (“Core Plus”), Western Asset Inflation Indexed Bond Portfolio (“Inflation Indexed”), Western Asset High Yield Portfolio (“High Yield”) and Western Asset Non-U.S. Fixed Income Portfolio (“Non-U.S.”) (individually a “Fund”, collectively the “Funds”), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management investment company with the exception of Non-U.S., which is non-diversified. Effective May 31, 2001, the Corporation changed its name to Western Asset Funds, Inc. from LM Institutional Fund Advisors I, Inc.

 

Each Fund offers two classes of shares: Institutional Class and Financial Intermediary Class. Shares in the Financial Intermediary Class bear a distribution fee. The Financial Intermediary Classes of Intermediate, Core and Core Plus commenced operations on January 7, 1999, July 22, 1999, and January 8, 2002, respectively. The Financial Intermediary Class shares of Intermediate were redeemed on November 30, 1999. The Financial Intermediary Classes of Inflation Indexed, High Yield, and Non-U.S. are not active. The income and expenses of each of the Funds are allocated proportionately to the two classes of shares based on daily net assets, except for Rule 12b-1 distribution fees, which are charged only on the Financial Intermediary Class shares.

 

Preparation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements:

 

Security Valuation

Securities owned by the Funds for which market quotations are readily available are valued at current market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued by the Board of Directors or the Funds’ Valuation Committee pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board. In determining fair value, the Board of Directors or the Funds’ Valuation Committee consider all relevant qualitative and quantitative factors available. These factors are subject to change over time and are reviewed periodically. The values assigned to fair value investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Further, because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market of the investments existed, and the differences could be material. At March 31, 2003, $51, or 0.03%, of High Yield’s net assets were fair valued in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board of Directors. Securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost by each Fund.

 

With respect to Core Plus, High Yield, Inflation Indexed and Non-U.S., where a security is traded on more than one market, which may include foreign markets, the securities are generally valued on the market considered by the Funds’ adviser to be the primary market. The Funds will value their foreign securities in U.S. dollars on the basis of the then-prevailing exchange rates.

 

Security Transactions

Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on an identified cost basis for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes. At March 31, 2003, receivables for securities sold and payables for securities purchased for each Fund were as follows:

Foreign Currency Translation

Assets and liabilities initially expressed in non-U.S. currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange. Purchases and sales of securities and income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing market rates on the dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in non-U.S. currency exchange rates on investment securities and other assets and liabilities are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

 

Repurchase Agreements

The Funds may engage in repurchase agreement transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a fund takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and a fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time, thereby determining the yield during a fund’s holding period. This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that is not subject to market fluctuations during the fund’s holding period. The value of the collateral is at all times at least equal to the total amount of the repurchase obligation, including interest. In the event of counterparty default, a fund has the right to use the collateral to satisfy the terms of the repurchase agreement. However, there could be potential loss to the fund in the event the fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral securities, including the risk of a possible decline in the value of the collateral securities during the period while the fund seeks to assert its rights. The Funds’ investment advisers review the value of the collateral and the creditworthiness of those banks and dealers with which the Funds enter into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.

 

Options, Futures and Swap Agreements

The current market value of a traded option is the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the mean between the closing bid and asked price. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Futures contracts are marked-to-market on a daily basis. As a contract’s value fluctuates, payments known as variation margin are made or received by the Funds each day, depending on the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. The daily changes in contract value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses, and the Fund recognizes a gain or loss when the contract is closed. Swap agreements are priced daily based upon quotations from brokers and the change, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation.

 

Investment Income and Distributions to Shareholders

Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are allocated at the class level and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly for each Fund except High Yield and Non-U.S., which declare and pay dividends quarterly. Net capital gain distributions, which are calculated at the Fund level, are declared and paid  after the end of the tax year in which the gain is realized. Distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; accordingly, periodic reclassifications are made within the Funds’ capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution under federal income tax regulations. At March 31, 2003, accrued dividends payable were as follows: Intermediate $67, Core, $322, Core Plus, $1,200, Inflation Indexed, $305, High Yield, $0, and Non-U.S., $0. Interest income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Bond discounts and premiums are amortized and included in interest income for financial reporting and federal income tax purposes.

 

2. Federal Income Taxes:

No provision for federal income or excise taxes is required since each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute substantially all of its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Because federal

income tax regulations differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, income and capital gains distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the character of distributions and composition of net assets for tax purposes differ from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

 

Distributions during the years ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, were characterized as follows for tax purposes:

Pursuant to federal income tax regulations applicable to investment companies, the Funds have elected to treat net capital losses realized between November 1 and March 31 of each year (“post-October loss”) as occurring on the first day of the following tax year. For the year ended March 31, 2003, realized capital losses reflected in the accompanying financial statements, as shown in the table below, will not be recognized for federal income tax purposes until the fiscal year ending March 31, 2004.

The Funds intend to retain realized capital gains that may be offset against available capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. As of March 31, 2003, High Yield had a capital loss carryforward of $444 and $6,723, which expire in 2010 and 2011, respectively; there were no capital loss carryforwards for Intermediate, Core, Core Plus, Inflation Indexed and Non-U.S., respectively.

 

For financial reporting purposes, capital accounts and distributions to shareholders are adjusted to reflect the tax character of permanent book/tax differences. For the year ended March 31, 2003, the Funds recorded the following permanent

3. Financial Instruments:

 

Forward Currency Exchange Contracts

As part of their investment programs, Core Plus, Inflation Indexed, High Yield and Non-U.S. may utilize forward currency exchange contracts. The nature and risks of these financial instruments and the reasons for using them are set forth more fully in the Corporation’s prospectus and statement of additional information.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market daily using forward foreign currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing service. The change in a contract’s market value is recorded by the Funds as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed or delivery is taken, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

 

The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the Funds’ securities, but it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. These forward foreign currency contracts involve market risk in excess of amounts reflected in the financial statements. Although forward foreign currency contracts used for hedging purposes limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged currency, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase. In addition, the Funds could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts.

Options and Futures

As part of their investment programs, the Funds may utilize options and futures. Options may be written (sold) or purchased by the Funds. When a Fund purchases a put or call option, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and its value is marked-to-market daily. When a Fund writes a put or call option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and its value is marked-to-market daily.

 

When options, whether written or purchased, expire, are exercised or are closed (by entering into a closing purchase or sale transaction), the Fund realizes a gain or loss as described in the chart below:

 

Purchased option:

  

Impact on the Fund:

The option expires

  

Realize a loss in the amount of the cost of the option.


The option is closed through a closing sale transaction

  

Realize a gain or loss depending on whether the proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option.


The Fund exercises a call option

  

The cost of the security purchased through the exercise of the option will be increased by the premium originally paid to purchase the option.


The Fund exercises a put option

  

Realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security. The proceeds of that sale will be reduced by the premium originally paid to purchase the put option.

82


 

Written option:

  

Impact on the Fund:

The option expires

  

Realize a gain equal to the amount of the premium received.


The option is closed through a closing purchase transaction

  

Realize a gain or loss without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security and eliminate the option liability. The Fund will realize a loss in this transaction if the cost of the closing purchase exceeds the premium received when the option was written.


A written call option is exercised by the option purchaser

  

Realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security. The proceeds of that sale will be increased by the premium originally received when the option was written.


A written put option is exercised by the option purchaser

  

The amount of the premium originally received will reduce the cost of the security that the Fund purchased when the option was exercised.


 

The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid. Options written by a Fund involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the option value reflected in the statement of net assets. The risk in writing a covered call option is that a Fund may forgo the opportunity of profit if the market price of the underlying security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that a Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the underlying security decreases and the option is exercised. In addition, there is the risk a Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market or, for over-the-counter options, because of the counterparty’s inability or unwillingness to perform. The nature and risks of these financial instruments and the reasons for using them are set forth more fully in the Corporation’s prospectus and statement of additional information.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit with the broker cash or cash equivalents in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the “initial margin.” Subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. For Non-U.S. and foreign denominated futures held in Core Plus, payment is not sent daily, but is recorded as a net payable or receivable by the Fund to or from the futures broker, which holds cash collateral from the Fund. The daily changes in contract value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses and each Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.

 

The Funds enter into futures contracts in connection with their interest rate management strategy. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the amounts reflected in the financial statements. The change in value of the futures contracts primarily corresponds with the value of their underlying instruments, which may not correlate with changes in interest rates. In addition, there is a risk that a Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market. The nature and risks of these financial instruments and the reasons for using them are set forth more fully in the Corporation’s prospectus and statement of additional information.

 

The open futures positions and related appreciation or depreciation at March 31, 2003, are listed at the end of each Fund’s statement of net assets.

 

Swap Agreements

The use of swaps involves risks that are different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. Swap agreements may be considered to be illiquid. Although a Fund will not enter into any swap agreement unless the adviser believes that the other party to the transaction is creditworthy, a Fund does bear the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of the agreement counterparty. The nature and risks of these financial instruments and the reasons for using them are set forth more fully in the Corporation’s prospectus and statement of additional information.

 

The Funds may invest in different types of swap agreements. Currently, the Funds hold interest rate swap contracts and credit default swap contracts (denoted in the table below by a superscript 1 or 2, respectively). Interest rate swap contracts involve the exchange of commitments to pay and receive interest based on a notional principal amount. Credit default swap contracts represent the exchange of commitments to provide a level of credit protection for a commitment to receive interest at a fixed rate based on the potential risk of default of the relevant underlying issuer. The relevant underlying issuer for credit default swap contracts is listed in a parenthetical reference following the agreement counterparty.

4. Securities Loaned:

Each Fund may lend its securities to approved brokers to earn additional income and will receive cash and U.S. government securities as collateral against the loans. Cash collateral received is invested in a money market pooled account by each Fund’s lending agent. Collateral is maintained over the life of the loan in an amount not less than 100% of the value of the loaned  securities.

 

At March 31, 2003, the market value of securities on loan to broker-dealers was $89,024 and $175,399 for Intermediate and Core, respectively. Cash collateral received was $92,149 and $190,109 for Intermediate and Core, respectively. Such collateral is in the possession of each Fund’s custodian. The cash was invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Prime Portfolio and is included in each Fund’s statement of net assets. As with other extensions of credit, each Fund may bear the risk of delay in recovery should the borrower of the securities fail financially.

 

5. Transactions With Affiliates:

Each Fund has a management agreement with Legg Mason Fund Adviser, Inc. (“LMFA”). Western Asset Management Company (“Western Asset”) is the investment adviser to Intermediate, Core, Core Plus, Inflation Indexed and High Yield. Western Asset Management Company Limited (“WAML”) is the investment adviser to Non-U.S. and shares advisory responsibilities with Western Asset for Core Plus. Pursuant to their respective agreements, LMFA provides the Funds with management and administrative services for which each Fund pays a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at annual rates of each Fund’s average daily net assets as follows: 0.40% for Intermediate; ranging from 0.45% of the first $500 million to 0.40% over $1 billion for Core and Core Plus; 0.20% for Inflation Indexed; 0.55% for High Yield; and 0.45% for Non-U.S. LMFA pays Western Asset a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.55% of average daily net assets for High Yield, 0.40% of average daily net assets for Intermediate, 0.20% of average daily net assets for Inflation Indexed Bond, and ranging from 0.45% of the first $500 million of average daily net assets of Core to 0.40% of the average daily net assets of Core over $1 billion. With respect to Core Plus, LMFA pays to Western Asset and WAML a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate ranging from 0.45% of the first $500 million of average daily net assets of Core Plus to 0.40% of the average daily net assets of Core Plus over $1 billion. Such fee is paid to Western Asset and WAML in proportion to the percentage of the net assets of Core Plus managed by Western Asset and WAML, respectively. LMFA pays WAML a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.45% of average daily net assets for Non-U.S. At March 31, 2003, $189, $515, $515, $43, $56, and $11 was due to LMFA for Intermediate, Core, Core Plus, Inflation Indexed, High Yield and Non-U.S., respectively. LMFA, Western Asset and WAML have voluntarily agreed to waive their fees and reimburse the Funds to the extent each Fund’s expenses (exclusive of taxes, interest, brokerage and extraordinary expenses) exceed during any month annual rates of each Fund’s average daily net assets as follows for Institutional Class: 0.45% for Intermediate, 0.50% for Core; 0.45% for Core Plus; 0.25% for Inflation Indexed, 0.55% for High Yield and 0.55% for Non-U.S.; and for Financial Intermediary Class: 0.70% for Intermediate, 0.75% for Core, and 0.70% for Core Plus. Western Asset and WAML have also agreed to waive their advisory fees (which are paid by LMFA, and not the Funds) in corresponding amounts.

 

Legg Mason Wood Walker, Incorporated (“LMWW”), a member of the New York Stock Exchange, serves as distributor of the Funds’ shares. LMWW receives from each Fund an annual distribution fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Financial Intermediary Class of each Fund, computed daily and payable monthly. At March 31, 2003, $15 was due to LMWW from Core.

 

LMFA, Western Asset, WAML and LMWW are wholly owned subsidiaries of Legg Mason, Inc.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

 

To the Board of Directors of Western Asset Funds, Inc. and Shareholders of Western Asset Intermediate Portfolio, Western Asset Core Portfolio, Western Asset Core Plus Portfolio, Western Asset Inflation Indexed Bond Portfolio, Western Asset High Yield Portfolio and Western Asset Non-U.S. Fixed Income Portfolio:

 

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Western Asset Intermediate Portfolio, Western Asset Core Portfolio, Western Asset Core Plus Portfolio, Western Asset Inflation Indexed Bond Portfolio, Western Asset High Yield Portfolio and Western Asset Non-U.S. Fixed Income Portfolio (six of the Portfolios comprising Western Asset Funds, Inc., hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at March 31, 2003, the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the fiscal periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at March 31, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A Officers of the Corporation serve one-year terms, subject to annual reappointment by the Board of Directors. Directors of the Corporation serve a term of indefinite length until their successors are elected and qualified and generally stand for re-election by shareholders only as and when required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
B Each Director, other than Mr. Taber, also serves as a Trustee for Western Asset Premier Bond Fund (closed-end investment company) and a Director of Pacific American Income Shares, Inc. (closed-end investment company), which are considered part of the same Fund Complex as the Corporation.

D Mr. Taber is considered to be an interested person, as defined above, of the Corporation on the basis of his employment with affiliated entities of the Corporation’s investment adviser (including the Corporation’s principal underwriter).
