The Marshall Large-Cap Value Fund returned 11.99% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 11.09% and 13.96% for the Lipper Large-Cap Value Funds Index and the Russell 1000® Value Index, respectively.

 

Forces such as rising interest rates, inflation fears, declining housing markets, and volatile energy and commodities prices influenced the market environment over the past 12 months. The Fund’s disciplined investment strategy remained focused on large, U.S. companies with proven earnings and revenue growth that trade at attractive valuations and offer the added benefit of attractive dividend yields.

 

In the past year, the Fund was helped by strong stock selection primarily in the Consumer Staples, Financials, and Information Technology sectors. Consumer Staples were sustained by the Fund’s overweight position in ethanol maker Archer-Daniels-Midland (1.0% of the Fund), which was up 85% during the year and contributed 73 basis points to Fund performance. Financial stocks performed well throughout much of the period, despite the Federal Reserve raising the Federal Funds rate seven times to 5.25%. The Fund held overweight positions in a variety of investment banks and commercial banks including Merrill Lynch (2.4% of the Fund, +30.3%), Goldman Sachs (1.2% of the Fund, +34.9%), and Wells Fargo (3.1% of the Fund, +20.4%). Strong performance from Information Technology companies Nvidia (0.0% of the Fund, +73.1%) and Lam Research (0.0% of the Fund, +52.2%) led to these positions being eliminated over the course of the year, as they appeared to no longer offer compelling values for the Fund. After a disappointing experience in the prior year, our patience in holding Telecommunication Services stocks was rewarded as the Fund’s holdings advanced 13.5% and Verizon (3.5% of the Fund) in particular rose 13%.

 

The Fund’s focus on value opportunities did not provide protection from “value traps.” Homebuilder Lennar (0.7% of the Fund) and home improvement retailer Home Depot (0.3% of the Fund) declined 28.1% and 14.1%, respectively, despite having attractive valuations. The effect of the housing market on these stocks was more severe than anticipated. These holdings continue to be monitored, but are expected to remain attractive long-term opportunities for shareholders.

For the 12 months ended August 31, 2006, the Fund’s total return was 2.86% compared with 1.49% and 3.68% for the Lipper Large-Cap Growth Funds Index and the Russell 1000® Growth Index, respectively.

 

Most sectors of the Russell 1000® Growth Index generated positive returns during this fiscal year; only Information Technology, -0.62%, and Consumer Discretionary, -3.59%, were down for the year. The top performing sectors were: Utilities up 31.01%, Materials up 15.08%, and Financials up 14.08%.

 

During the first half of the year, fear of a housing slowdown led to constant speculation by investors on when the Federal Reserve would be done raising rates. On top of this speculation, the Federal Reserve Governor Alan Greenspan retired and Ben Bernanke replaced him. The anticipated housing slowdown did not begin to materialize until springtime. In turn, the Federal Reserve finally stopped raising rates.

 

The Fund benefited from superior stock selection and good sector weighting. Five sectors within the Fund outperformed their respective sectors within the Index: Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, Financials, Industrials, and Materials. Each sector had several securities that performed well for the Fund. Within the Financials sector, the standout performance came from Merrill Lynch (1.3% of the Fund) up 30.3% for the year. In the Consumer Discretionary sector the Fund’s holdings in J.C. Penney (1.4% of the Fund) up 34.8% and American Eagle Outfitters (0.5% of the Fund) up 36.7% contributed positively. Procter & Gamble (3.2% of the Fund) up 13.9%, was the largest contributor within the Consumer Staples sector. The Industrials sector had strong performances from Lockheed Martin (2.1% of the Fund) up 36.7% and Illinois Tool Works (1.3% of the Fund) up 10.5%. Despite the strong performance from Oracle (2.7% of the Fund) up 28.4%, the Information Technology sector detracted from the performance of the Fund as a result of stock selection within that sector.

 

Large-cap growth stocks have underperformed their mid-cap and small-cap counterparts for a number of years now. With rising interest rates and slowing global growth, large-cap growth stocks may become an increasing area of interest for investors going forward.

For the 12 months ended August 31, 2006, the Fund’s total return was 5.12%, compared with 12.36% and 7.76% for the Russell Midcap® Value Index and the Lipper Mid-Cap Value Funds Index, respectively.

 

All ten of the economic sectors in the Russell Midcap® Value Index recorded positive results. The Fund recorded positive returns in seven of the ten sectors. The largest component in the Index, Financials, rose over 15%, and was led by the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) sub sector. The Fund avoided REIT stocks, as the Fund’s investment team remained consistent with their investment strategy to avoid sectors and securities that are considered to be overvalued. If REIT stocks were excluded, the Fund’s return was comparable for the sector.

 

Fund results also lagged in the Consumer Staples sector, for what the Fund did not own, as Archer- Daniels-Midland (0.0% of the Fund) was up 85%. An overweight position in Information Technology and strong stock picking propelled a significant positive variance versus the Index. The performance was broad based with a half dozen stocks advancing more than 15% and no holding in the segment down more than 9%. The Fund’s investment team continued to find good value in the Information Technology sector with many companies reflecting strong cash flow characteristics, attractive valuations and low investor expectations. The Industrials sector also demonstrated strong results up over 18% for the year, surpassing the 14% return in the Index. The Fund held an overweight position in the category with Manpower (1.6% of the Fund), Watson Wyatt (2.0% of the Fund), and CSX Corp. (1.0% of the Fund) all up over 30% during the year.

 

Bargains are not as plentiful as five years ago, but nonetheless the market always provides opportunities. Our watch list in the Consumer Discretionary and Energy sectors continues to grow while several long-time holdings such as: Northrup Grumman (0.0% of the Fund), RR Donnelley (0.0% of the Fund), CSX Corp. (1.0% of the Fund), Safeco Ins. (0.0% of the Fund), and Bausch & Lomb, Inc. (0.0% of the Fund) were sold as they reached price targets. The Fund’s investment team may consider investing in many of these companies again, but not until their stock prices reflect more favorable risk-reward ratios.

 

During the year, the Fund held five companies that received buyout or merger proposals. More of this activity is expected in the future due to low interest rates and ample liquidity in the market. The Fund continues to embrace its philosophy of purchasing out-of-favor, undervalued stocks and patiently waiting for the market to recognize the underlying value of the company.

The Marshall Mid-Cap Growth Fund returned 5.71% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 6.00% and 6.60% for the Russell Midcap® Growth Index and the Lipper Mid-Cap Growth Funds Index, respectively.

 

Continued economic strength, strong corporate earnings and modest valuations led to good market returns for the first two thirds of the fiscal year. Strong worldwide economic growth, driven by strong growth in China, Brazil, and India, helped propel commodity prices higher. Rising energy and other commodity prices helped to drive strong returns in the Energy and Materials sectors of the market. The Industrials stocks were also beneficiaries of the strong worldwide economy.

 

Returns in the last third of the fiscal year were not as robust. Two years of Federal Reserve interest rate increases began to take their toll in May. The market became concerned with future economic growth and whether the Fed had gone too far in raising interest rates, increasing the probability of an economic recession. These fears were calmed in July as the Fed did not raise rates for the first time in two years and the markets responded positively to the prospects of decent corporate earnings and modest valuations.

 

The Fund continued to be broadly diversified throughout the year, limiting the effect of sector allocation on the relative returns versus the Index. A slight underweight in the Consumer sector, due to concerns regarding rising interest rates, the slowing housing market, and more disposable income being allocated to energy-related spending, provided a positive contribution to performance. This strategy was offset slightly by our underweight in the Materials and Utilities sectors, two sectors that are not traditionally the focus of growth funds.

 

Stock selection remained the main driver to relative performance during the fiscal year. Stock selection in Information Technology holdings, especially in the Semiconductors, Software and Services, and Consumer sectors, led the charge during the year. Examples included Akamai Technologies (1.2% of the Fund), MEMC Materials (1.1% of the Fund), Cognizant Technologies (0.9% of the Fund), Salesforce.com (0.0% of the Fund), and J.C. Penney (1.1% of the Fund). Unfortunately, stock selection in the Healthcare, Energy, and Industrials sectors negatively affected the Fund. Examples included Kinetic Concepts (0.0% of the Fund), Centene Corp. (0.0% of the Fund), Goodrich Corp. (0.0% of the Fund), and Patterson Energy (0.3% of the Fund).

The Marshall Small-Cap Growth Fund returned 11.37% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 6.00% and 3.28% for the Russell 2000® Growth Index and the Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds Index, respectively.

 

A solid economy contributed to good small cap returns during the first two thirds of the fiscal year and had a positive effect on Industrials stocks. In addition, strong worldwide growth, especially in Brazil, India, and China, increased demand for raw materials causing most commodity related prices to soar to new highs, benefiting those sectors most exposed to rising commodity prices, including the Energy and Materials sectors.

 

The situation changed in May. Two years of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates began to take its toll, draining liquidity out of the system. Rising interest rates had a negative effect on perceived riskier assets such as small cap stocks and the commodity markets. Many of the same sectors that had the best performance during the first part of the year had the most trouble during the last part of the year, including Industrials, Energy and Materials. The markets were calmed a bit in July as the Fed left interest rates unchanged for the first time in over two years. As a result, the focus again can shift to those companies with the strongest earnings growth.

 

The Fund continued to be broadly diversified throughout the fiscal year limiting the effects of sector weightings on the relative performance versus the Index. The Fund’s underweight in Materials and slight overweight in Information Technology had a marginally negative effect on performance. Fortunately, stock selection was the main driver to the Fund’s positive relative performance. Strong stock selection in Information Technology, Industrials, Financials, and Consumer sectors contributed nicely to the positive returns during the year. Examples included, Rackable Systems (0.5% of the Fund), Akamai Technologies (1.3% of the Fund), Acacia Research Corp. (0.6% of the Fund), BE Aerospace (1.3% of the Fund), Wesco Intl. (0.7% of the Fund) and Tower Group (1.0% of the Fund), which all were up more than 50% during the fiscal year. The Fund was negatively affected by modest underperformance in our Energy, Healthcare, and Consumer Staples stock selection. Examples included Gasco Energy (0.0% of the Fund), Toreador Resource Corp. (0.0% of the Fund), CV Therapeutics (0.0% of the Fund), and Health Grades (0.0% of the Fund).

The Marshall International Stock Fund returned 23.90% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 24.28% and 24.77% for the EAFE Index and the Lipper International Multi-Cap Growth Funds Index, respectively.

 

Despite a correction during May and June, non-U.S. markets remained in firmly positive territory for the one-year period ending August 31, 2006—demonstrating resilience against consistently elevated energy prices, inflationary pressures and other global concerns. Value stocks continued to outperform growth stocks during the fiscal year and the individual portfolios of the sub-advisers performed accordingly.

 

Trilogy holdings in the Energy, Financials, Telecommunication Services and Utilities sectors added the most relative value and an overweight allocation to Energy stocks also helped performance. Their holdings in Materials, Industrials, and Consumer Discretionary hurt performance along with their underweight in Materials stocks. Geographically, an underweight in the United Kingdom and exposure to emerging markets were positive as was stock selection in continental Europe. Conversely, Japanese and U.K. holdings underperformed. At the stock level, ABB (0.7% of the Fund), Yamada Denki (0.8% of the Fund), Petroleo Brasiliero (0.3% of the Fund), and Amvescap (0.7% of the Fund) were significant positive contributors to their performance while Vodafone (0.0% of the Fund), A.P. Moller-Maersk (0.0% of the Fund), and GEA Group (0.7% of the Fund) underperformed.

 

Acadian’s portfolio outperformed primarily due to stock selection and somewhat to country allocation. Their holdings benefited from stock selection in France, the U.K., Germany and Australia, as well as from overweighting the Netherlands and underweighting in Hong Kong. The active allocations to several emerging markets, including Russia and China, also helped. Stock selection was strong in Materials, Telecommunication Services, Industrials and Energy stocks. Sector weightings, however, were not positive overall, particularly the overweighting in Energy and the underweightings in Utilities and Information Technology. Stock selection detracted from return in Financials, particularly in the U.K. and Japan, as well as in Utilities, where the greatest underperformance was seen in Spain. During a period of wide market swings, the strongest performing quantitative factor was price momentum as investors were clearly following winners. Earnings trend was another unusually strong factor for the period. Valuation factors were more mixed, as the price-to-intrinsic value factor was positive, but other value factors performed less well than usual. Price to normalized earnings saw the lowest returns of any factor for the period. Investors responded more to measures of value based on fixed assets than those based on earnings, cash flow, or dividend discount models. Most quality factors underperformed their long-term history, again suggesting a risk-averse environment where price movements were of greatest concern to investors.

The Marshall Government Income Fund returned 2.57% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 2.92% and 2.28% for the Lehman Brothers Mortgage-Backed Securities Index and the Lipper U.S. Mortgage Funds Index, respectively.

 

The Federal Reserve met eight times during the fiscal year and voted in the first seven meetings to raise Fed Funds by 25 basis points. As has been the theme throughout this tightening cycle, which began in June 2004, the Fed cited concerns over inflation as the primary driver of its monetary policy. Economic growth continued to expand during the fiscal year, with GDP coming in at 5.6% during the first quarter of 2006. Additionally, unemployment remained at or near its historical low for most of the period. Energy prices remained high with oil reaching over $70/barrel during the year. All these factors contributed to the Fed’s inflationary fears and subsequent rate decisions. The Fed finally decided to pause at the August 8, 2006 meeting, stating that it believed that economic growth would moderate as the full effects of the prior seventeen consecutive rate increases takes effect.

 

Yields on short securities benefited the greatest from the Fed’s policy. Over the course of the fiscal year, yields on short-term Treasuries, including the 3-month, 6-month and 2-year issues, increased 153, 140 and 96 basis points, respectively. Longer maturity securities did not fare as well, with the yield on the 10- and 30-year Treasuries up only 71 and 62 basis points, respectively. This disparity, which typically happens during an extended Fed tightening cycle, created a yield curve that was inverted on the short-end and flat in the intermediate and longer time periods.

 

The Marshall Government Income Fund performed well versus its benchmark and market peers by focusing on duration management and sector and security selection. First, the Fund strategically managed the duration to be shorter than that of the benchmark throughout most of the period. This strategy enhanced relative performance as rates increased. Next, the Fund made well-timed shifts between the Mortgage-Backed Securities sector and U.S. Treasuries, which also generated outperformance relative to market peers. Finally, security selection played a significant role in the Fund’s performance. As rates rose throughout the period, prepayment patterns on mortgage-backed securities vacillated considerably. The Fund took advantage of this by opportunistically trading between current coupon mortgages and premium mortgages.

The Marshall Intermediate Bond Fund returned 2.56% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 1.87% and 1.99% for the Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Intermediate Index and the Lipper Short/Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds Index, respectively.

 

The fiscal year brought another round of tightening by the Federal Reserve, which continued to cite concerns over inflation, driven by strong economic growth and low unemployment, as the impetus for ongoing rate increases. Over the course of the fiscal year, the Fed met eight times and voted to increase rates at seven of those meetings. At its last meeting, the Fed indicated that economic growth would moderate and the full effects of the seventeen consecutive rate increases had yet to take hold. As a result, the Fed voted to pause and hold rates steady at 5.25%.

 

The shape of the yield curve changed considerably during the fiscal year. In the beginning, the curve exhibited a normal upward sloping shape with the 30-year Treasury bond offering 90 basis points of additional yield over the 3-month Treasury bill. However, the curve became inverted over the period as short-term securities responded to higher Fed Funds rates faster than longer-term securities. At the end of the period, the 6-month Treasury bill offered 33 basis points of additional yield over a 2-year Treasury note. The curve was flat in the intermediate and longer parts of the curve with the 30-year Treasury bond offering a mere 10 basis points of additional yield over a 2-year Treasury note.

 

The Fund performed well versus its market benchmarks and peers throughout the fiscal year. The primary factor behind the performance was the diligent management of the Fund’s duration. The Fed was relatively transparent in the early part of the fiscal year with respect to its intention to continue raising rates. In response, the Fund shortened its duration relative to its benchmark and was able to mitigate principal losses as rates rose. The Fund also employed floating rate notes, which outperformed their fixed rate counterparts. Next, the Fund benefited from superior sector selection. The Fund initiated timely rotations between the corporate and mortgage sectors, which allowed the Fund to capture excess return versus the benchmark and market peers. On an individual security basis, the Fund benefited from its exposure to both Ford (0.7% of the Fund) and GM (0.0% of the Fund), both of which rebounded nicely on positive news surrounding labor negotiations and possible strategic alliances.

The Marshall Intermediate Tax-Free Fund returned 2.12% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 2.60% and 2.55% for the Lehman Brothers 7-Year General Obligations Bond Index and the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Index, respectively.

 

The latest fiscal year featured an additional seven instances of Federal Reserve monetary policy tightening, which pushed interest rates higher for all bonds except for the very longest maturity range (i.e., 20 years and beyond). For example, yield levels for a 2-year maturity municipal bond rose approximately 60 basis points, but the 20-year part of the yield curve declined by 1 basis point. Similar to last year, the configuration of the municipal yield curve continued to flatten, reaching the flattest shape ever recorded in municipal bond history. Since long-term municipal interest rates actually declined slightly, and yields for longer maturity bonds generally accrue at a higher rate than shorter bonds, the longest maturity bonds in the portfolio were the best performers.

 

Until the Federal Reserve tightening campaign ends, most bond total returns are likely to be constrained. Fortunately, it now appears the Fed is either done moving rates higher, or close to finished for this interest rate cycle. Led by a weaker housing market, the domestic economy shows signs of slowing. Bond market investors have tended to thrive in a slowdown, as inflationary expectations are re-evaluated in the form of declining yields.

 

Strategically, the Fund moved more investment dollars into the 4-6 year area of the yield curve. This positioning proved to be somewhat premature as longer maturity bonds performed better during the fiscal year. However, this strategy is expected to benefit from the recent changes in Federal Reserve policy in reaction to a slower economy. If the Federal Reserve lowers rates, history shows the yield curve normally regains a positively sloped shape.

 

The fiscal health of municipal issuers continued to improve after three years of solid economic growth. Little yield distinction in the marketplace is now given to riskier credits because of the tremendous tailwind of increasing tax revenue flowing into municipal coffers. Consequently, the risk/return trade-off that always factors into individual bond selection dictates a cautious approach looking ahead. While the best news may be behind us as it pertains to the financial conditions currently enjoyed by many sectors of government, the Fund remains overweight relative to the higher quality bonds in the market.

The Marshall Short-Term Income Fund provided a total return of 3.92% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 3.07% and 3.07% for the Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year U.S. Government/Corporate Index and the Lipper Short-Term Investment Grade Debt Fund Index, respectively.

 

The fiscal year brought another round of tightening by the Federal Reserve, which continued to cite concerns over inflation, driven by strong economic growth and low unemployment, as the impetus for ongoing rate increases. Over the course of the fiscal year, the Fed met eight times and voted to increase rates at seven of those meetings. At its last meeting, the Fed indicated that economic growth would moderate and the full effects of the consecutive rate increases have yet to take hold. As a result, the Fed voted to pause and hold rates steady at 5.25%.

 

As is often the case during a Fed tightening cycle, the yield curve took on an inverted shape as short-term bond yields responded quicker to changes in Fed Funds rates versus their longer maturity counterparts. The three and six month parts of the curve increased in the most dramatic fashion, up 153 and 139 basis points each. Two- and five-year Treasuries also increased in yield, up 96 and 83 basis points, respectively. The long end of the curve saw the slowest response to Fed tightening with the 30-year up only 62 basis points. The end result was an inverted curve on the short end, with the 6-month yielding 33 basis points more than the 2-year, and a flat curve in the intermediate and longer end, with the 30-year providing only 10 basis points of additional yield over the 2-year.

 

The Fund posted strong performance relative to its benchmark and peers by taking advantage of the opportunities that presented themselves as the yield environment changed. First the Fund maintained a shorter duration in anticipation of higher bond yields to minimize principal erosion as rates rose throughout the time period. Next, the Fund utilized higher-yielding sectors such as AAA rated asset-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) over lower-yielding Treasuries and Agencies. The Fund also maintained an allocation to a high-yield senior secured bank note fund, as the high yield sector outperformed the investment grade market over the fiscal year.

The Marshall Government Money Market Fund provided a total return of 4.16% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 3.75% and 3.90% for the iMoney Net, Inc. Government Money Market Index and the Lipper U.S. Government Money Market Funds Index, respectively.

 

Throughout the fiscal year, the Fed continued to cite inflation, driven by strong economic growth and low unemployment, as its primary concern. A first quarter GDP reading of 5.6% and unemployment hovering around historical lows at 4.7% supported this concern. The Fed responded by voting to raise Fed Funds rates by 25 basis points at each of the first seven meetings of the fiscal year. Later in the year, however, the Fed began to see signs that economic growth was moderating. Additionally, the Fed indicated that the effects of seventeen consecutive 25 basis point rate increases had yet to fully take effect. In the end, the Fed voted to pause at the August 8 meeting and hold Fed Funds rates at 5.25%, bringing to an end a two-year cycle of tightening.

 

As often happens during a tightening cycle, yields on shorter duration securities rose at a faster rate than those of their longer maturity counterparts. The yield on the 3-month and 6-month T-Bills increased 153 basis and 140 basis points, respectively, versus 83 basis points for the 5-year Treasury and 63 basis points for the 30-year. At the end of the fiscal year, the shape of the yield curve was inverted on the short-end, with the 6-month Treasury bill yielding 33 basis points more than the 2-year Treasury note. Further out, the curve took on a flat shape with the difference between the 2-year note and the 30-year bond being only 10 basis points.

 

The Fund performed well versus its peers by employing several strategies to take advantage of the changing slope of the yield curve. First, early in the year the Fed was very transparent with respect to its expectations for future rate increases. During this time period, the Fund shortened its average weighted maturity in anticipation of higher rates. This was additive to performance as the Fund was positioned to reinvest dollars in higher yielding securities as rates rose. Next, the Fund utilized floating rate notes, which also added to performance as rates increased. Finally, the Fund avoided the more expensive Treasury sector and focused on Agency securities, which offered a superior yield profile.

The Marshall Prime Money Market Fund provided a total return of 4.25% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 4.01% and 4.02% for the iMoney Net, Inc. Money Fund Report Averages Index and the Lipper Money Market Funds Index, respectively.

 

The Federal Reserve met eight times during the fiscal year ending August 31, 2006. Record high energy prices, strong economic growth and low unemployment created an environment where further tightening by the Fed was necessary to control inflation. First quarter GDP posted a robust reading of 5.6%, but was expected to and actually did come in much weaker for the second quarter, primarily driven by the ongoing strain of high oil prices. Over the course of its meeting schedule the Fed raised rates in the first seven meetings, but voted to pause at the final meeting of the fiscal year, ending at 5.25%.

 

The Fed’s actions had the greatest effect on short bonds. The yield on the 3-month and 6-month T-bills increased 153 basis and 140 basis points, respectively. Agency discount notes also increased significantly, up 159 and 153 basis points in the 60-day and 90-day time periods. On the credit side, A1/P1 Commercial Paper saw yield increases of 154 basis points in the 90-day time frame and 129 basis points for the 9-month time frame. At year-end, the yield curve was inverted on the short-end with the 6-month T-bill yielding 33 basis points more than the 2-year Treasury note. Further out the curve, the shape was extremely flat as evidenced by the meager 10 basis point difference between the 2-year Treasury note and the 30-year Treasury bond.

 

The Fund generated strong performance relative to its market benchmarks and peers by executing on several key strategies. First, as the Fed continued to signal rate increases, the Fund maintained a shorter average weighted maturity. As expectations for further rate increases waned, the Fund lengthened its average weighted maturity. Second, the Fund employed floating rate notes, which were helpful in a rising rate environment. Finally, the Fund opted to overweight A1/P1 Commercial Paper and AAA rated asset-backed securities in lieu of Treasuries and Agencies. At fiscal year end, Commercial Paper yielded 5.31% in the 90-day time period versus 5.21% for comparable maturity agency discount notes. AAA rated asset-backed securities were even more attractive with a 90-day yield of 5.34%.

The Marshall Tax-Free Money Market Fund provided a total return of 2.84% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006 compared with 2.67% and 2.63% for the Lipper Tax Exempt Money Market Fund Index and the iMoney Net Fund Report Tax-Free National Retail Index, respectively.

 

Over the past year, the U.S. economy was strong, despite significant headwinds. The housing sector made most of the economic headlines as it shifted from overheated to slowdown mode. Several more months of economic data are necessary to determine whether the current pullback in housing production and pricing is just a summer event, or if it is the beginning of something more substantial for housing and the economy. Energy issues also made front-page news caused somewhat by the hurricanes of 2005 and the ongoing U.S. military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Housing and energy issues had the power to derail the U.S. economy, yet it has steamed ahead, albeit a bit slower. Unemployment has fallen, wages have risen, and consumer spending is strong. Commercial construction and business industrial investment remains robust. The U.S. government deficit has been falling, despite the current military spending, due to significant increases in taxable income for corporations and individual taxpayers.

 

During the Fund’s fiscal year, the Fed Funds rate moved from 3.50% to 5.25%, with the Fed in “pause” mode for the first time since June 2004. In response, managing the Fund was a tale of two halves. In the first half of the Fund year, the Federal Reserve rate increases were apparent. As a result, the Fund’s average maturity was maintained fairly short. During the summer months, the Fund’s average maturity was lengthened out a bit more as it became apparent that the Fed was near its end of rate increases.

 

The Fund remained widely diversified across sectors and industries, as little gain was expected by concentrating positions or from significant differences in credit quality. Credit spreads remain flat, but the market is often most healthy when a clear distinction exists between strong and weak credits. Notes and longer-term pieces of commercial paper have been added opportunistically whenever relative value has been identified, while maintaining the vast majority of assets in securities that reset daily or weekly. Additionally, the Fund’s maturity and holdings are adjusted throughout the year to position the Fund for normal seasonal trends that occur in the municipal market.

Expense Example (Unaudited)

 

For the Six Months Ended August 31, 2006

 

As a shareholder of a Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested dividends, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

 

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six month period ended August 31, 2006 (3/1/06-8/31/06).

 

Actual Expenses

 

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

 

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

 

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

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.

 

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted (“GAAP”) in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

Investment Valuations—Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price or official closing price reported on a national securities exchange, including NASDAQ. U.S. government securities, listed corporate bonds, other fixed income and asset-backed securities with maturities of 60 days or more, unlisted securities and private placement securities are generally valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked price as furnished by an independent pricing service. Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued at the last closing price on the principal exchange on which they are traded immediately prior to the time for determination of NAV or at “fair value” as discussed below. 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. The money market funds use the amortized cost method to value portfolio securities in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Act. Fixed income securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies are valued at net asset value.

 

Securities or other assets for which market valuations are not readily available, or are deemed to be inaccurate, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Board of Directors (the “Directors”). The Directors have established a Pricing Committee, which is responsible for determinations of fair value, subject to the supervision of the Directors. In determining fair value, the Pricing Committee takes into account all information available and any factors it

 

68


Notes to Financial Statements (continued)    

 

deems appropriate. Consequently, the price of securities used by a Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security is materially different than the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security and the differences may be material to the NAV of the respective Fund or the financial statements presented.

 

Securities held in the Marshall International Stock Fund may be listed on foreign exchanges that do not value their listed securities at the same time that the Fund calculates its NAV. Most foreign markets close well before the Fund values its securities, generally 3:00 p.m. (Central Time). The earlier close of these foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim, which may affect a security’s value.

 

The Pricing Committee may determine that a security needs to be fair valued if, among other things, it believes the value of the security might have been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the market in which the security was principally traded, but before the time for determination of the NAV (“a subsequent event”). A subsequent event might include a company-specific development (for example, announcement of a merger that is made after the close of the foreign market), a development that might affect an entire market or region (for example, weather related events) or a potentially global development (such as a terrorist attack that may be expected to have an effect on investor expectations worldwide). The Directors have retained an independent fair value pricing service to assist in valuing foreign securities. The service utilizes statistical data based on historical performance of securities, markets and other data in developing factors used to estimate a fair value. As of August 31, 2006, 1.2% of the total long-term investments of the Small-Cap Growth Fund were fair valued; none of the securities held in the other Funds were fair valued.

 

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, including accrued interest.

 

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 (or sub-adviser with respect to International Stock Fund) to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Directors. Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Funds could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities.

 

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 market value.

 

The Funds offer multiple classes of shares (except Intermediate Tax-Free Fund) which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Funds. 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 class-specific expenses. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the total shares outstanding of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses attributable to a particular class of shares, such as distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees are allocated directly to that class.

 

Premium and Discount Amortization/Paydown Gains and Losses—All premiums and discounts on fixed income securities are amortized/accreted for financial statement purposes. Gains and losses realized on principal payments of mortgage-backed securities (paydown gains and losses) are classified as part of net investment income.

 

Federal Income Taxes—It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the Subchapter M provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of their income. Accordingly, no provisions for federal tax are recorded.

 

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

 

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions—The Funds may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Funds record when-issued securities on the trade date and maintain security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the commitment to purchase securities. 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.

 

Futures Contracts—Certain Funds may purchase futures contracts to manage cash flows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a “variation margin” account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

Short-Term Income Fund

   December 2006    300    U.S. 5 Year Note   Long      (83,295 )

 

Options Contracts—Certain Funds may write covered call and put options on futures, swaps, securities or currencies a Fund owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When a Fund writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received or made, if any, from writing options with premiums to be determined on a future date are reflected as such on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. A Fund, as a writer of an option, has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security or currency may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security or currency underlying the written option. The risk exists that a Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.

 

Certain Funds may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. A Fund pays a premium which is included in a Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.

 

For the year ended August 31, 2006, the Large-Cap Value Fund had $471,957 in realized gains on written options.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)    

 

 

Foreign Exchange Contracts—The International Stock Fund may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts as a way of managing foreign exchange rate risk. The International Stock Fund may enter into these contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date as a hedge or cross hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio positions. The objective of the International Stock Fund’s foreign currency hedging transactions is to reduce the risk that the U.S. dollar value of the International Stock Fund’s foreign currency denominated securities will decline in value due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. All foreign currency exchange contracts are “marked-to-market” daily at the applicable translation rates resulting in unrealized gains or losses. Realized gains or losses are recorded at the time the foreign currency exchange contract is offset by entering into a closing transaction or by the delivery or receipt of the currency. Risk may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

 

Foreign Currency Translation—The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies (“FC”) are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange quoted on the respective date that such transactions are recorded. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

 

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of FCs, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

 

Dollar Roll Transactions—The Funds, except for the money market funds, may enter into dollar roll transactions, with respect to mortgage securities issued by Government National Mortgage Association, Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, in which the Funds loan mortgage securities to financial institutions and simultaneously agree to accept substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities at a later date at an agreed upon price. Dollar roll transactions are short-term arrangements which will not exceed twelve months. The Funds use the proceeds generated from the transactions to invest in short-term investments, which may enhance the Funds’ current yield and total return. The fee earned by the Fund from these transactions is accreted over the roll period.

 

Information regarding dollar roll transactions for the Intermediate Bond Fund for the period ended August 31, 2006 was as follows:

 

Maximum amount outstanding during the period

   $60,589,990

Average amount outstanding during the period (1)

   $30,140,626

 

Information regarding dollar roll transactions for the Government Income Fund for the period ended August 31, 2006 was as follows:

 

Maximum amount outstanding during the period

   $215,438,310

Average amount outstanding during the period (1)

   $105,866,218

 

(1) The average amount outstanding during the period was calculated by adding the borrowings at the end of the day and dividing the sum by the number of days in the period ended August 31, 2006.

 

Securities Lending—Certain Funds participate in a securities lending program providing for the lending of corporate bonds, equity and government securities to qualified brokers. The Funds receive cash as collateral in return for the securities and record a corresponding payable for collateral due to the respective broker. The amount of cash collateral received is maintained at a minimum level of 100% of the prior day’s market value on securities loaned. Collateral is reinvested in short-term securities including overnight repurchase agreements, commercial paper, master notes, floating rate corporate notes (with at least quarterly reset rates) and money market funds. On May 18, 2000, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued an order to the Marshall Funds that exempts certain securities lending activities from prohibitions under the Act. Under the terms of the exemptive order, (i) the Funds may pay a portion of net revenue to Marshall & Ilsley Trust Company N.A. (“M&I Trust”) for its services as securities lending agent, and (ii) cash collateral received for a loan of one Fund’s securities may be invested jointly with collateral received for loans of other Funds’ securities.

Restricted Securities—Restricted securities are securities that may be resold only 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 Directors. The Funds are valued at the price provided by dealers in the secondary market or, if no market prices are available, the fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Directors. The money market funds’ restricted securities are valued at amortized cost in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Act.

 

Additional information on each illiquid restricted security held by the Funds at August 31, 2006 is as follows:

Redemption Fees—The Funds (other than the Government Money Market Fund, Prime Money Market Fund, and Tax-Free Money Market Fund) impose a 2.00% redemption fee to shareholders who redeem shares held for 30 days or less. All redemption fees are recorded by the Funds as paid-in-capital.

 

Commitments and Contingencies—In the normal course of business, the Corporation enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Corporation’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Corporation that have not yet occurred. However, the Corporation has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

Other—Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net realized gains and losses on securities are computed on the basis of specific security lot identification.

4.   Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due in part to differing treatments for net operating loss, foreign currency transactions, paydown gain or loss, market discount accretion, premium amortization and expiring capital loss carryforwards.

 

To the extent that differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts, on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, based on their Federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification and had no impact on the net asset value of the Funds.

 

The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable in part to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains on investments in passive foreign investment companies and the discount accretion/premium amortization of debt securities.

At August 31, 2006, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards, which reduce the Funds’ 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 distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Funds of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforward will expire as follows:

Administrative Fee—M&I Trust, under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Funds with administrative personnel and services. The fee paid to M&I Trust is based on each Fund’s average daily net assets with respect to the Equity Funds and Income Funds and the aggregate average daily net assets of all money market Funds as follows:

 

Maximum Fee

  

Fund’s ADNA

0.100%

   on the first $250 million

0.095%

   on the next $250 million

0.080%

   on the next $250 million

0.060%

   on the next $250 million

0.040%

   on the next $500 million

0.020%

   on assets in excess of $1.5 billion

 

M&I Trust may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. M&I Trust can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

 

Distribution Services Fee—Prior to November 1, 2005, the Funds were subject to a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Effective November 1, 2005, the Funds’ Board of Directors approved the elimination of the Plan with respect to all of the Funds other than the Prime Money Market Fund. The Plan authorizes payments by the Prime Money Market Fund to finance activities intended to result in the sale of its Advisor Class shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses up to 0.30% of the average daily net assets of the Fund’s Advisor Class shares.

 

Shareholder Services Fee—Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Marshall Investor Services (“MIS”), a division of M&I Trust, each Fund pays MIS up to 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Fund’s Investor and Advisor Class shares for the period. The fee paid to MIS is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. MIS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. MIS can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

 

Custodian Fees—M&I Trust is the Funds’ custodian, except for the International Stock Fund for which Investors Bank & Trust maintains custody. M&I Trust receives fees based on the level of each Fund’s average daily net assets for the period.

 

Securities Lending—The Funds pay a portion of net revenue to M&I Trust for its services as the securities lending agent. The securities lending income as shown in the Statements of Operations is net of these expenses. The following amounts were paid for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006:

7.   Line of Credit/Interfund Borrowing and Lending

The Corporation, on behalf of the respective Funds, entered into a $25,000,000 unsecured, committed revolving line of credit (“LOC”) agreement with State Street Bank & Trust Company. The LOC was made available for extraordinary or emergency purposes, primarily for financing redemption payments. Borrowings are charged interest at a rate of 0.50% per annum over the Federal Funds rate. The LOC includes a commitment fee of 0.09% per annum on the daily unused portion. The Intermediate Tax-Free Fund and the Tax-Free Money Market Fund utilized the LOC during the year ended August 31, 2006. No borrowings were outstanding under the LOC at August 31, 2006.

 

The Funds are permitted to participate in an interfund lending program, which allows the Funds to lend money to, and borrow money from, each other for temporary purposes. The money market funds will not participate as borrowers. The program is subject to a number of conditions, including the requirement that the interfund loan rate to be charged to the Funds under the program is (i) more favorable to the lending Fund than the rate it could otherwise obtain from investing cash in repurchase agreements or purchasing shares of a money market fund and (ii) more favorable than the lowest interest rate at which bank short-term loans would be available to the Funds.

9.   Change in Auditors

On May 8, 2006, the Audit Committee of the Funds’ Board of Directors accepted the resignation of Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”) as independent accountants for the Funds. Upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee, on May 2, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Funds selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PWC”) as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the books and records of the Funds for their fiscal year ended August 31, 2006, in the event of E&Y’s resignation. E&Y’s report on the financial statements of the Funds for the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the period E&Y was engaged, there were no disagreements with E&Y on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to E&Y’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to that matter in connection with its report.

 

10.   Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (the “Interpretation”). The Interpretation establishes for all entities, including pass-through entities such as the Funds, a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax returns (including whether an entity is taxable in a particular jurisdiction), and requires certain expanded tax disclosures. The Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the date of effectiveness. Management has recently begun to evaluate the application of the Interpretation to the Funds, and is not in a position to estimate the significance of its impact, if any, on the Funds’ financial statements at this time.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Marshall Funds, Inc.

 

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations, of changes in net assets and of cash flows and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Marshall Large-Cap Value Fund, Marshall Large-Cap Growth Fund, Marshall Mid-Cap Value Fund, Marshall Mid-Cap Growth Fund, Marshall Small-Cap Growth Fund, Marshall International Stock Fund, Marshall Government Income Fund, Marshall Intermediate Bond Fund, Marshall Intermediate Tax-Free Fund, Marshall Short-Term Income Fund, Marshall Government Money Market Fund, Marshall Prime Money Market Fund and Marshall Tax-Free Money Market Fund (each a series of Marshall Funds, Inc., hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at August 31, 2006, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets, its cash flows and the financial highlights for the year then ended, 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 audit. We conducted our audit of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards 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 August 31, 2006 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. The statement of changes in net assets for the year ended August 31, 2005 and financial highlights of the Funds for the periods ended August 31, 2005 and prior were audited by other independent auditors. Those independent auditors expressed an unqualified opinion in the report dated October 26, 2005.

Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts

 

Marshall Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”) has an investment advisory contract with M&I Investment Management Corp. (the “Adviser”) under which the Adviser manages the Marshall Funds (the “Funds”). The Adviser also has sub-advisory contracts with two sub-advisers for the management of the portfolios of Marshall International Stock Fund. The investment advisory contract and the sub-advisory contracts are referred to as the “Contracts.” The Directors of the Corporation, more than seventy percent of whom have never been affiliated with the Adviser (“Independent Directors”), oversee the management of each Fund and, as required by law, determine at least annually whether to continue the Contracts.

 

In connection with their most recent consideration of the Contracts, the Directors received and reviewed a substantial amount of information provided by the Adviser and its affiliate, Marshall & Ilsley Trust Company, which is the Funds’ Administrator (the “Administrator”), and by the respective sub-advisers in response to detailed requests of the Independent Directors and their independent legal counsel. They discussed with representatives of management the operations of the Funds and the nature and quality of the advisory and other services provided to the Funds by the Adviser, the Administrator and the sub-advisers. The Independent Directors also received and reviewed a memorandum from their counsel regarding their responsibilities in considering continuation of the Contracts. Throughout their consideration of the Contracts the Independent Directors were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Directors met on two separate occasions with management to consider the Contracts, and at each of those meetings they also met separately in executive session with their counsel.

 

At a meeting held on August 11, 2006, based on their evaluation of the information provided by the Adviser, the Administrator and the sub-advisers and other information, the Directors determined that the overall arrangements between each Fund and the Adviser were fair and reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and the Administrator and, in the case of Marshall International Stock Fund, the sub-advisers, the fees charged for those services, and other matters that the Directors considered relevant in the exercise of their business judgment. At that meeting the Directors, including all of the Independent Directors, unanimously approved the continuation of the investment advisory contract for each Fund and the sub-advisory contracts for Marshall International Stock Fund, each for an additional one-year period subject to earlier termination as provided in each Contract.

 

In considering the continuation of the Contracts, the Directors reviewed and analyzed various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors described below, none of which by itself was considered dispositive. However, the material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Directors’ determination to approve the continuation of the Contracts are discussed separately below.

 

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

 

The Directors reviewed the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser, the Administrator and the sub-advisers, taking into account the investment objective and strategy of each Fund and the knowledge the Directors gained from their regular meetings with management on at least a quarterly basis and their ongoing review of information related to the Funds. In addition, the Directors reviewed the resources and key personnel of the Adviser and sub-advisers, especially the personnel who provide investment management services to the Funds. The Directors also considered other services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and the Administrator and the sub-advisers, such as managing the execution of portfolio transactions and the selection of broker-dealers for those transactions, providing administrative services, monitoring adherence to the Funds’ investment restrictions, producing shareholder reports, providing support services for the Directors and Director committees, communicating with shareholders and overseeing the activities of other service providers, including monitoring compliance with various policies and procedures of the Funds and with applicable securities laws and regulations.

 

The Directors concluded that the nature and extent of the services provided to each Fund by the Adviser and the Administrator, and to Marshall International Stock Fund by each sub-adviser, were appropriate and consistent with the terms of the respective Contracts, that the quality of those services had been consistent with or superior to quality norms in the industry and that the Funds were likely to benefit from the continued provision of those services. They also concluded that the Adviser, the Administrator and each sub-adviser had sufficient personnel, with the appropriate education and experience, to serve the Funds effectively and had demonstrated its continuing ability to attract and retain well-qualified personnel.

 

Performance of the Funds

 

The Directors considered the performance of each Fund over various time periods. They reviewed information comparing each Fund’s performance with the performance of the Fund’s benchmark and with the performance of comparable funds and peer groups identified by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”). They concluded that the performance of most Funds was good to very good,

 

88


Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (continued)

 

especially in more recent periods. Although the performance of some Funds lagged that of their peers for certain periods, they also concluded that the Adviser had taken appropriate steps to address the under-performance and that the more recent performance of most of those Funds had been improving.

 

Costs of Services Provided and Profits Realized by the Adviser

 

The Directors examined information on the fees and expenses of each Fund in comparison to information for other comparable funds as provided by Lipper. They noted that the rate of management (investment advisory and administrative) fees for many of the Funds, after voluntary fee waivers, were below the mean management fee rate of the funds in their respective Lipper category, and that the total expense ratio of many of the Funds were below the mean expense ratio of the funds in their respective Lipper category.

 

The Directors considered the methodology used by the Adviser and the sub-advisers in determining compensation payable to their portfolio managers, the very competitive environment for investment management talent and the competitive market for mutual funds in different distribution channels.

 

The Directors also reviewed the Adviser’s management fees for its separate account clients. Although in most instances separate account fee rates for various investment strategies were lower than management fees for Funds having a similar strategy, the Directors noted that the Adviser and the Administrator perform significant additional services for the Funds that they do not provide to those other clients, including administrative services, oversight of the Funds’ other service providers, Director support, regulatory compliance and numerous other services, and that, in serving the Funds, the Adviser assumes many legal risks that it does not assume in servicing many of its other clients.

 

The Directors also considered the profitability to the Adviser and the Administrator of their relationships with each Fund. They recognized that profitability comparisons among fund managers are difficult because very little comparative information is publicly available and profitability of any manager is affected by numerous factors, including the organizational structure of the particular manager, the types of funds and other accounts it manages, possible other lines of business, the methodology for allocating expenses and the manager’s capital structure and cost of capital. However, based on their review they found the profitability of the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds not to be unreasonable.

 

Finally, the Directors considered the financial condition of the Adviser and each sub-adviser, which they found to be sound.

 

The Directors concluded that the rates of management fees and other compensation payable by each Fund to the Adviser and its affiliates, as well as the fees paid by the Adviser to the sub-advisers of Marshall International Stock Fund, were reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of the services provided, taking into account the fees charged by other advisers for managing comparable mutual funds with similar strategies and the fees the Adviser charges to other clients. The Directors also concluded that the overall expense ratio of each Fund was reasonable, taking into account the size of the Fund, the quality of services provided by the Adviser, the investment performance of the Fund and the expense limitations provided by the Adviser.

 

Economies of Scale

 

The Directors received and considered information about the potential of the Adviser to experience economies of scale as the assets of the Funds increase. They noted that, although each Fund pays an advisory fee at a fixed rate as a percentage of net assets for most of the Funds, without any breakpoints, the management fee paid by each Fund, after voluntary fee waivers, was below the mean management fee rate of the funds in its Lipper category; and, for those Funds whose expenses are being reduced by the voluntary waivers by the Adviser of a portion of its fees, the Adviser is subsidizing the Funds. Based on all of the information they reviewed, the Directors concluded that the current fee structure of each Fund was reasonable and that the current rates of fees do reflect a sharing between the Adviser and the Fund of economies of scale at the current asset level of the Fund. However, the Independent Directors will continue their periodic consideration of the fee structures for the Funds and related economies of scale.

 

Other Benefits to the Adviser

 

The Directors also considered benefits that accrue to the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds and the use by the Adviser and the sub-advisers of commissions paid by many of the Funds on their portfolio brokerage transactions to obtain research products and services benefiting the Funds and/or other clients of the Adviser. The Directors concluded that the Adviser’s use of “soft” commission dollars to obtain research products and services was consistent with regulatory requirements and was likely to benefit each Fund that pays brokerage commissions. The Directors also concluded

 

89


Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (continued)

 

that, other than the services provided by the Adviser pursuant to the investment advisory contract and the fees to be paid by each Fund therefor, the Funds and the Adviser may potentially benefit from their relationship with each other in other ways. They concluded that the Adviser benefits from the receipt of research products and services acquired through commissions paid on portfolio transactions of the Funds and that the Funds benefit from the Adviser’s receipt of those products and services, as well as research products and services acquired through commissions paid by other clients of the Adviser. They further concluded that success of any Fund could attract other business to the Adviser and that the success of the Adviser could enhance the Adviser’s ability to serve the Funds.

 

After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors that were instructive in evaluating the Contracts, the Directors, including all of the Independent Directors, concluded that the continuation of the investment advisory contract for each Fund, and the sub-advisory contracts for Marshall International Stock Fund, was in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders.
