MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


Dear Shareholders,

Investor confidence has been shaken throughout this past year as we have all experienced turmoil from geopolitical events and corporate malfeasance. In this environment, it is important to keep diversification, strong fundamentals and long term investing at the forefront of our investment methodology. We continue to search for ways to improve our investment processes to provide excellent risk adjusted returns over time. The past several years have served notice regarding the importance of an appropriate asset allocation strategy in light of each individual’s investment time horizon and tolerance for risk. The Vintage Funds offer a spectrum of investment alternatives to help meet the needs of varying investment time horizons and risk profiles.

Once again, bonds outperformed stocks over the past twelve months, solidifying the merit of fixed income investing in a balanced portfolio. Principal preservation seemed to be a common theme of investors, as money market and savings accounts continued to grow even in the face of very low yields. The Federal Reserve has maintained an extremely accommodative short-term interest rate policy to encourage more robust growth in the economy. Although signs of growth have been slow in coming, the resolution of the military portion of the Iraqi conflict should alleviate some uncertainty and allow for businesses and consumers to have more confidence in the future.

We continue to have faith in the U.S. economy and markets and have positioned our Funds to take advantage of strengthening conditions. The reports that follow provide a detailed discussion of the performance of each Vintage Mutual Fund during the past year. I urge you to read them carefully as they provide insight into how and why each Fund performed as it did. The discussion also explains how each Fund is postured for the future.

We appreciate the trust each of you as shareholders place in our management efforts. We thank you for your continued confidence in us, and we look forward to providing excellent investment management in the future. We want to continue to make it easy for each of you to access account specific and general Vintage Fund information in a variety of ways, including a visit to our Web site, a phone call, or a visit to any AMCORE branch. If you have questions or require assistance, please visit us at www.VintageFunds.com, call us at 1-800-438-6375, or visit us at the nearest AMCORE branch.

MESSAGE FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


Dear Shareholders:

The financial markets have been battered over the last year by countless acts of corporate fraud, an increasing number of high profile bankruptcies, and a prolonged and severe market downturn. Amid the turmoil, we found the stock market in its longest bear market since 1939-1941, falling for the third consecutive year.

Although the stock market appeared to show signs of recovery in early 2002, it quickly waned as confidence slipped and scandals resurfaced. Engulfed by pessimism, corporate earnings remained sluggish, with the S&P 500 index combined quarterly profits almost 25% lower than peak levels in the first quarter of 2000. As a result of declining profits, business spending plunged and employer payrolls fell as manufacturers stretched for each last penny.

With the onset of the conflict with Iraq, confidence declined, oil prices rose and equity markets sank. However, as early signs of victory surfaced, much of the retrenchment in the financial markets unwound, and stock prices have finally shown signs of positive returns.

While stocks are not out the woods, we believe that better times are ahead. Fiscal and monetary stimuli are in full force. Consumers continue to lead the economic recovery benefiting from historically low mortgage rates. Corporate profits are growing supported by initial signs of top line revenue growth. As geo-political concerns wane, both business and individual confidence should rise, leading the awaited recovery in the financial markets.

In a positive light, during most of the slide in equity prices, bonds cushioned the fall with near double-digit returns. As the economy weakened, the Fed lowered short-term rates to help fuel a recovery. The decline in interest rates brought about higher bond prices, thus strong bond performance. For the third consecutive year bond returns trumped equity returns.

However, the bond market was not insulated from the vagaries of corporate scandals. Several leading research firms ranked the top 50 worst credit blowups over the last 15 years and found 32 of those occurred in 2002, with many during the summer of 2002 alone. This type of environment is as difficult for corporate bond investors as it is for equity investors.

Even though we have been faced with extremely challenging financial markets, that is no excuse for our funds underperforming over the last 12 months. In recognition of the radical changes in the market environment, we have made some adjustments to ensure deeper fundamental analysis, a more efficient screening process, and less exposure to lower-quality bonds.

Our equity discipline has been successful, however the addition of a more thorough quantitative screening process will allow us to isolate attractive opportunities in the market more quickly and take advantage of better market execution. We are further enhancing our credit analysis by evaluating our staff needs and resources and implementing any necessary additions. Within our bond funds, we are moving to a higher credit quality posture, which is more reflective of the index and the style of investing we have built our name around. We believe these minor adjustments will provide us the opportunities to provide a higher standard of performance for our shareholders.

Though history has shown the US economy and the stock market has always recovered from economic downturns, the timing has been impossible to predict. For our part, we continue to work diligently to provide our shareholders with a high total return. With a long-term view as our backdrop, we remain steadfast in our commitment to our philosophy and disciplines.

PERFORMANCE REPORT Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


The Vintage Money Market Funds

The Federal Reserve cut its target rate by half a percent in November, driving short-term rates lower. Rates in the long end rose, and the yield curve steepened as budget proposals increased in size and the economic outlook began to improve. Money market yields dropped across the board, leaving the curve flat throughout the one-year spectrum. Increasing rhetoric concerning a potential conflict with Iraq continued to hang over the market, keeping rates low as investors sought the safety of Treasury bonds.

During the first quarter of 2003, the Federal Reserve opted to leave the Fed Funds rate unchanged at 1.25%, as uncertainty caused by the war with Iraq made them reluctant to further stimulate the economy from an already stimulative monetary position. The money market yield curve inverted during the quarter as the impending war pushed out investor expectations for economic recovery. By the end of the quarter, five- to nine-month paper offered the lowest yields, and even one-year rates were lower than overnight rates. Once the war ends, the economic picture should be clearer and companies will begin to invest in growth. We continue to remain short the benchmark duration in anticipation of rising rates once growth begins.

The Government Assets Fund

Agency yields fell in concert with Treasury yields after the Fed cut rates in November, and agency paper continued to outperform Treasuries as concern about agency risk management abated. The yield curve invested with yields in February through April was lower than January paper. The Fund finished the quarter short the index in terms of average days and remained short in expectation of rising rates once the markets regain focus on economic fundamentals.

Agency paper offered good relative value against corporate paper across the money market spectrum for much of the first quarter of 2003. Concern about the operations and risk management of FNMA and FHLMC increased as Fed Governor Poole talked publicly about his personal concerns. The rating agencies would rate these companies ‘AA’ without government support, and we continue to believe these government agencies are well run and financially stable. The Fund was virtually even with its index duration, as some cash was invested out the curve near the end of the quarter.

The Liquid Assets Fund

During the fourth quarter of 2002, yields on short-term corporate paper recovered from much of the widening that occurred in the third quarter, as the negative company headlines dissipated and some normalcy returned to the corporate bond market. Unfortunately, the investment universe of high-grade money market corporate issuers had shrunk substantially throughout year, with several downgrades reducing the number of acceptable issuers. The Fund finished the quarter short the index in terms of average days and remained short in expectation of rising rates once the markets begin to focus on the economic recovery.

Yields on short-term corporate paper were relatively unchanged during the first quarter of 2003. With the yield curve inversion, the allocation to commercial paper increased as shorter paper offered better yields. Three-month to one-year paper was hard to find, as demand was strong. The Fund remained short the index throughout the quarter, falling by two days at the end of the quarter.

The Municipal Assets Fund

During the fourth quarter, municipal yields fell more than agency bonds due to less supply and increasing investment demand. The Fund finished the quarter short the index in terms of average days and remained short in expectation of rising rates once the markets regain a focus on economic fundamentals.

PERFORMANCE REPORT Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


Throughout the first quarter of 2003, short municipal paper remained difficult to find. Yields continued to drift lower, and the curve was very flat. The Fund ended the quarter virtually even with its index duration as cash was invested late in the quarter.


Although the Vintage Money Market Funds seek to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00, there is no assurance that they will be able to do so. The Vintage Money Market Funds are neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government.

The Vintage Fixed Income Funds

The economy grew at a moderate pace over the last year, but you wouldn’t know that from the financial markets. Financial markets performed exactly the opposite of what typically happens in an economic recovery. Stocks declined and bond prices rose. The excesses of the post bubble era were the cause: accounting scandals, large corporate bankruptcies and conflicts between Wall Street research and investment banking. In addition the war in Iraq accompanied by rising oil prices and the ongoing terrorist threat caused concerns.

Investor’s aversion to risk caused them to flock to bonds during the last year, causing the prices of bonds to rise. Treasuries led the way as investors flocked to the safest haven. Long maturities appreciated the most. Agencies were the second choice of investors throughout the year.

During the year, corporate bonds underperformed Treasuries by a wide margin. Investors became increasingly concerned about debt-laden balance sheets and the next accounting scandal. Lower investment grade securities lagged high quality corporates significantly.

Meanwhile, mortgage-backed securities (MBS) quickly became short duration securities as the 30-year mortgage rate plummeted below 6% and hybrid adjustable rate and balloon mortgage rates provided even lower rates. Mortgage-backed returns lagged those of other high quality bonds. Their returns would probably have been even lower if not for investors’ fear of the corporate bond market and banks’ need to invest a huge influx of deposits in an environment of weak loan growth. The asset-backed securities performed relatively well versus similar duration securities.

Municipal bonds underperformed Treasuries during the last year. The rating agencies continued to monitor the states as they struggled to balance their budgets with significantly declining income taxes and sales taxes. The discussion in Congress about eliminating taxes on dividends also caused concern about the future investor demand for municipal bonds. Yields of municipal bonds are at historically attractive levels relative to both Treasuries and high-quality corporate bonds.

Meanwhile, the economy was awash with stimulus. The Federal Reserve cut the Fed Funds rate by half percent in November to 1.25%, which is 1% below the rate of inflation. Monetary policy has not been this stimulative since the early 1980s.

In addition to monetary policy, a number of other significant forces have come to the aid of the economy, including fiscal stimulus from the federal government, a weaker dollar and another mortgage refinancing wave. The Federal Reserve is no longer alone in its efforts to bolster the economy. We should begin to see the economy gain momentum in the coming quarters as a result of these combined forces.

Perhaps the biggest restraint on the economy over the last few years has been debt-laden corporate balance sheets that were the result of the debt-financed capital investment boom of the 1990s. The amount of time required to correct these problems leads to sub-par economic recoveries such as that following the recession of the early 1990s. In the current circumstance, this was exacerbated by accounting fraud that led to extreme risk aversion by investors. Over the past three years companies have been deleveraging their balance sheets. Corporate profits have also improved over the last year. The cost of debt financing for investment grade companies has declined dramatically over the past few months and is now at the lowest absolute level since late 1998. This is a strong indication that this restraint on the economy may be loosening.

Bonds are now overvalued relative to inflation. Short-term rates are below the rate of inflation and long-

term interest rates are low relative to inflation. The real rate (after subtracting inflation) of the ten-year Treasury is only 1.5 percent versus an historical average of 3.0 percent.

The bond market has been quick to adjust to signs of stronger economic growth over the last decade. Industrial commodity prices are a leading indicator of the economy and ten-year Treasury yields have tended to move in tandem with movements in industrial commodity prices. These prices have moved up 25 percent over the last year.

The five-year portion of the yield curve may take the brunt of any rise in yields. The vulnerability of this portion of the yield curve can be illustrated by comparing the five-year Treasury yield to nominal GDP growth. Typically the five-year Treasury yield is above nominal GDP growth. Whenever the five-year Treasury yield has declined below the level of nominal GDP growth in the last ten years, this yield has tended to reverse course and rise substantially. Currently the five-year Treasury yield is more than one percent below nominal GDP the largest gap in the last ten years. A one percent rise in the five-year Treasury yield would cause its price to decline resulting in a negative total return. Investors have enjoyed the strong positive returns of bonds over the last year, but these may not be repeated in the year ahead.

The relative returns of fixed income sectors may also change in the next twelve months. The fixed income leaders over the last year may become the laggards in the coming year as risk aversion fades. Over the last three months this trend has become noticeable. Corporate bonds outperformed Treasuries in the first quarter. In addition, lower investment grade securities significantly outperformed higher quality issues during the last three months. This trend is likely to continue due to declining corporate leverage, improving earnings, and strong supply/ demand fundamentals relative to Treasuries.

In summary, bond yields are too low relative to inflation and relative to the massive stimulative forces aimed at the economy. We are positioning portfolios with a defensive duration relative to their benchmark. Risk aversion is beginning to dissipate and our portfolios are positioned to benefit from a continuation of this trend in the coming year.

The Limited Term Bond Fund

The Limited Term Fund underperformed its benchmark over the last year. With short-term interest rates already at low levels, the Fund’s duration was shorter than the benchmark. In addition, the Fund underweighted Treasury securities. This also hindered performance as investors flocked to the safest haven.

The federal funds rate remains more than one percent below the rate of inflation. Federal Reserve governors have indicated that they believe the war in Iraq is largely responsible for the recent weak economic numbers and are taking a wait and see approach. The Fed is likely to leave rates unchanged until the economy begins to show signs of a more sustained recovery and the geopolitical risks are resolved. Market expectations are consistent with a slow return to a neutral Fed policy. These expectations, however, may be too complacent unless the economy fails to gain momentum in the last half of the year.

The Fund is maintaining a duration shorter than its benchmark, making it less sensitive to price declines when rates eventually begin to rise. The Fund is underweighted in Treasuries and agencies, since these sectors have benefited the most from investors’ flight to a safe haven. The Fund is overweighting asset-backed securities with hopes to enhance its yield. The Fund is also emphasizing corporate bonds, since the growth rate of corporate debt has decelerated significantly and corporate profits are beginning to improve.

The Fund is focused on providing a higher yield than a money market fund while minimizing potential price deterioration from a rise in interest rates over the next year.

For the year ended March 31, 2003, the Fund provided a total return of 1.13 percent*. The Fund ended the period with net assets of $58.8 million.

The performance of the Vintage Limited Term Bond Fund is measured against the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/ Corporate Bond Index and the Merrill Lynch 1-5 yr. U.S. Government/Corp. Index. Both are unmanaged indices generally representative of the performance of government and corporate bonds and the Lehman Index having maturities of 1-10 years and the Merrill Lynch having maturities of 1-5 years. The indices do not reflect the deduction of expenses associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for these value-added services. The performance table and graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

PERFORMANCE REPORT Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


The Bond Fund

The Bond Fund lagged its benchmark last year. Typically an improving economy leads to higher long-term rates, but that did not happen last year as the economy and the financial markets diverged. The Fund’s duration was shorter than the benchmark, which hindered performance. The Fund was also overweighted in corporate bonds, particularly lower investment grade securities which also hampered performance.

Due to the backdrop of war in Iraq and the resulting investor angst, the bond market remains in overvalued territory. Bond yields are too low relative to inflation and relative to the massive stimulative forces aimed at the economy. In our view, duration is the biggest risk in the bond market. We have positioned the Fund with a shorter duration than its benchmark, making it less exposed to price declines when rates begin to rise.

The portfolio is particularly underweighted to the five-year portion of the yield curve, as this point on the curve is the most vulnerable. Five-year yields are below nominal GDP, which is not sustainable for any length of time.

The Fund remains underweighted in Treasuries and agencies, as these sectors are the most overvalued. Investors’ aversion to risk is starting to dissipate, and corporate bonds have outperformed other sectors. We remain overweighted to this sector since corporations continue to reduce debt and profits are improving. The Fund is currently underweighted to mortgage-backed securities, but this allocation may be increased as the current refinancing wave peaks.

While we did not capture all of the gains provided by the bond market last year, we are focused on preserving capital when interest rates begin to rise. We want to minimize negative price movements when interest rates do eventually begin to normalize relative to inflation and economic growth.

For the year ended March 31, 2003, the Fund provided a total return of 4.46 percent*. The Fund ended the period with net assets of $131.3 million.

As of March 31, 2003, approximately 42 percent of the Fund’s net assets were invested in mortgage-related securities, 41 percent in corporate bonds, 3 percent in taxable municipals, 13 percent in Treasuries and agencies, and 1 percent in cash and cash equivalents. The average maturity of these holdings was 6.98 years with an average credit quality of AA3**.

Principal only represents securities that entitle holders to receive only principal payments on the underlying mortgages. The yield to maturity of principal only is sensitive to the rate of principal payments on the underlying mortgages. A slow (rapid) rate of principal repayments may have an adverse (positive) effect on yield to maturity. The interest rate disclosed represents the yield at date of purchase.

The Municipal Bond Fund

Municipals had a great year in 2002 and first quarter of 2003 as investors shifted toward less risky assets. As Treasury yields declined throughout most of the year, municipal yields followed close behind. Weaker economic data and concerns about geo-political events pushed rates to new lows in the first quarter which helped prolong the bull run in bonds. However, with a strong monetary and fiscal stimulus package in place and corporations beginning to see better opportunities, municipal bonds may be near their bottom in yield. The tax legislation proposed by the Bush Administration has potential implications on the performance of municipal securities over time; however, it is still too soon to determine the full impact of their proposal.

We are posturing the portfolio for a potential rise in rates in 2003. We are focused on higher quality issuers as state and local budgets continue to be strained as tax proceeds diminish. We have leaned toward higher coupon securities to provide better reinvestment opportunities as rates rise, helping boost performance in a rising rate environment.

We continue to strive to meet the funds objective of generating current income that is tax-exempt from federal income taxes, consistent with the preservation of capital.

A portion of income may be subject to some state and/or local taxes and for certain investors, a portion may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax.

For the year ended March 31, 2003, the Fund provided a total return of 9.06 percent*. The Fund ended the period with net assets of $47.2 million.

As of March 31, 2003, the portfolio was widely diversified with holdings in a wide cross-section of states. The average maturity of these holdings was 6.46 years with an average credit quality of AA1**.

The Vintage Equity Funds

The last several years have been extraordinarily challenging for stock investors. The stock market has experienced one of the worst bear markets since the Great Depression. Seemingly unending bad news has buffeted stocks lower and lower with little relief in sight. While the stock market suffered negative returns yet again during the last twelve months, signs are beginning to appear that the worst of the downturn for stock prices may be drawing to a close. The S&P 500 even managed to generate a positive return of 5.01 percent for the half-period ended March 31, 2003.

Although the S&P 500 ended 2002 with a lower close for the third year in a row, the only other time that occurred was during the period 1939-1941. Can the stock market be down four years in a row? While anything is possible, the odds of such an event look to be low. Only once in its entire 107-year history has the Dow Jones Industrial Average been down four years in a row. That was during the Great Depression years of 1929- 1932. Additionally, an optimistic observation is that stocks historically have generally produced strong returns following multiple down years.

After three years of losses, the S&P 500 is now back to around an 8 percent annualized growth rate since 1990. Had the stock market advanced at an even 8 percent since 1990 it would be at a level roughly where it is today! The good news is the bubble in stock prices that developed during the late 1990s has been deflated, hopefully setting the stage for positive stock returns going forward.

2002, like 2001, was another year of crisis. The corporate accounting scandals certainly provided the major financial crisis for 2002. Typically, however, major stock market bottoms have coincided with financial crises, which trigger panic selling. However, the crises usually trigger corrective policy responses from government and business leaders, which ultimately create buying opportunities for stocks. A positive development is that the SEC and Congress have already responded with tougher regulation and legislation designed to curb corporate malfeasance. A look at net equity fund flows minus net bond fund flows reveals that investors piled into stocks during the market top in 1999/2000 only to run hard for the exits during the summer of 2002. From a contrarian perspective, this is an indication that the worst of the bear market may have already occurred.

Encouragingly, stocks now appear to be in a solid bottoming process that began last July. Since then, the stock market has been locked in a sideways trading range. The S&P 500, for example, has been bounded by approximately 800 on the lower end and 950 on the upper end of this trading range. Stocks have tested the low end of this range three times, the first being last July, then again last October and most recently in early March. It is heartening that stocks have successfully retested the low end of this range three times because it suggests that those who wanted out of the stock market are largely out. Trading volume has also been lighter on each retest of the lows, suggesting a growing unwillingness on the part of investors to sell aggressively. An unwillingness to sell is the first step towards a willingness to buy. With the recent Iraq war rally bounce that began on March 13, the S&P 500 has pierced its 200-day moving average. If the S&P 500 can sustainably hold above its 200-day moving average, this would signal a major directional trend change in stock prices. A stronger economic recovery and a greater confidence in the rebound in corporate profits will likely be needed to move the S&P 500 sustainably above its 200-day moving average.

Another positive sign is that, even though geopolitical risks are still lurking, equity market fears are showing signs of receding. Perhaps investors are sensing the worst of the corporate accounting scandals and abuses on Wall Street are winding down and that geopolitical risks are becoming less intense. Another bullish sign is junk bond yields have

-30-


 

PERFORMANCE REPORT Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


dropped precipitously during the last several months, suggesting that the bond market, like the equity market, is also becoming less risk averse.

The first ray of light finally appeared at the end of the long bear market tunnel during the fourth quarter of 2002. The S&P 500 advanced 8.43 percent during the quarter. Stock prices perked up in early October as the third quarter earnings season drew to a close without a major negative event. The belief that company fundamentals and expectations were in the process of bottoming also helped to lift stocks higher.

Surprisingly, the beaten down telecommunications and technology sectors led the fourth quarter rally with strong returns of 37.5 percent and 22.3 percent, respectively. Investors were once again willing to assume more risk and poured money into deeply depressed telecom and tech stocks. Helped by a surge in gold prices and a continuing rise in raw industrial commodity prices, the materials sector also had a strong quarter with a gain of 12.8 percent. The consumer staples, consumer discretionary and utilities sectors lagged the market with returns of 1.1 percent, 2.1 percent and 4.8 percent, respectively.

However, the ray of light that appeared in the fourth quarter of 2002 was quickly consumed by the shadow of the bear in the first quarter of 2003. Hope quickly turned to fear in the first quarter of the year, and once again the stock market tested the July/October 2002 lows. The impending Iraq conflict dominated market sentiment for the first two months of the quarter during this testing period.

Indeed, the first quarter of 2003 was not an optimal environment for strong equity performance as the S&P 500 declined 3.15 percent. Geopolitical concerns, high energy prices, poor weather, and signs of slower economic growth combined to take their toll on investor sentiment. The longer the war uncertainty lingered the greater the risk became that high oil prices and eroding consumer and business confidence would cause the economy to suffer a prolonged setback. On the flip side, it is likely that much of the slowdown in the economy during the quarter was the result of the uncertainty of war times, which should be relatively temporary.

The onset of the Iraq war in March triggered a sharp rally in equity prices, resulting in a successful test of the July/October 2002 lows. Large cap and growth stocks performed the best during the Iraq war-related rally, outperforming small caps and value during the first quarter. The valuation advantage for small cap stocks has closed during the last several years as small caps have outperformed large caps. However, it looks as if the tables have turned in favor of large caps. Below-average nominal economic growth, a lower U.S. dollar, and a continued low inflationary environment favor large caps over small caps going forward. Gauging the relative performance of growth versus value stocks is a challenge, and although growth surged to a 4-5 percent advantage over its value brethren in each of the capitalization ranges during the first quarter, this does not yet make a trend. Style performance in the future will be influenced by the resolution of many uncertainties, such as the direction of energy prices, the rate of economic acceleration or deceleration, consumer sentiment, business sentiment, the rate of inventory rebuilding and the slope of the yield curve.

Meanwhile, a recovery in corporate earnings has continued to unfold. 2002 ended with earnings gains following steep double-digit earnings declines in 2001. The earnings recovery has helped put a floor under stock prices. While the rebound in corporate profits has made progress, the strength of the rebound continues to be met with skepticism by investors. Due to the recent combination of poor weather and war fears, corporate managements have been reluctant to provide much, if any, earnings visibility for the next several quarters. This has not helped investors’ confidence in earnings estimates. Many strategists have been worried that analysts’ earnings estimates are too optimistic for the second

half of 2003 and will need to be reduced as the year progresses. It will be difficult for the stock market to break out to new highs if the conviction in earnings estimates remains tentative.

Importantly, however, oil prices declined sharply at the end of March with the onset of the war in Iraq. Lower oil prices, if sustained, should help improve corporate profitability going forward. Additionally, inventories, capital spending and annual bank loan growth are in rising trends, which suggests the current recovery in corporate profits is still on track. Additionally, raw industrial commodity prices, which are positively correlated with corporate profits, continue to advance steadily higher. This is an encouraging sign and suggests that further corporate earnings gains lie ahead. Earnings gains for 2003 are likely to be in the upper single digits to low double digits. A sustained profits rebound will ultimately lead to higher business confidence, higher capital spending and a rebuilding of inventories. This, in turn, would lead to higher employment and rising consumer confidence and a stronger economic recovery. Corporate profits should continue to improve gradually as the economic recovery gains strength in the second half of 2003.

The next test for the stock market is whether the economy can achieve a faster pace of recovery now that the risks in Iraq are beginning to recede. Will investors return their focus to President Bush’s domestic agenda for reviving the economy, or will they be more worried about what the next geopolitical or terrorist threat may be? The recent military victory in Iraq is encouraging, and investors will be watching closely to determine if businesses and consumers gain confidence as war risks diminish. The recent softness in the economy was most likely caused by a combination of Iraq war fears and the terrible weather in February. To the extent that the negative impact of both of these events proves to be transitory, a more favorable period for the economy may soon emerge. This should result in better stock market performance in the months ahead.

The bottom line is that stocks appear poised to have a better chance of achieving positive returns in 2003. With technical indicators flashing oversold levels and many investors bailing out of stocks last summer, a successful bottom appears to have been established by the stock market. The corporate earnings recovery continues to unfold, although a faster pace of economic recovery would provide a higher level of confidence in earnings expectations. Most importantly, though, aggregate earnings growth should be positive in 2003, providing a tailwind for stocks. While the ride will certainly have bumps along the way, returns for the stock market of upper single digits to low double digits appear reasonable in 2003.

The Vintage Balanced Fund

Economic and geopolitical uncertainty caused investors to flock to bonds during 2002, causing the price of Treasuries and other high-quality bonds to rise significantly as yields declined to historic lows. Short-term rates were well below the rate of inflation and long-term rates were extremely low relative to the underlying trend in inflation. Both the Federal Reserve and the federal government have set monetary and fiscal policy at extremely accommodative levels to reinvigorate the economy. The fixed income portion of the Balanced Fund was positioned to benefit from rising interest rates and stronger economic growth. The Fund’s duration was shorter than its benchmark. The Fund was underweight Treasuries and overweight corporate bonds.

Stocks have been dramatically revalued relative to bonds during the last several years. Returns for stocks now look more attractive than bonds going forward. As a result, the Fund is overweight stocks versus bonds. The recent weakness in the economy and the stock market due to the Iraq war should prove to be temporary. Economic and market conditions should regain strength as Iraq war uncertainties are resolved. Confidence in profit margins and earnings growth should improve

The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for these value-added services. The performance table and graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

PERFORMANCE REPORT Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


The Vintage Equity Fund

Although the stock market declined from mid-January to early March as fears of impending war with Iraq escalated, it was encouraging to observe that stocks did not violate the 2002 lows of last July and October. This is a positive indication that the bottoming process began last July is still intact. The intense selling that occurred during the market lows of last July and October may have removed the most panic-stricken investors from the market. As stocks dropped during the first quarter, the market’s level of fear never reached the high levels seen at the July or October stock market lows of last year. This may pave the way for the additional base building that is most likely needed to provide the foundation for a more sustainable advance in stock prices.

In the current environment of a bottoming in stock prices combined with lingering risks, a broadly diversified portfolio with only modest sector bets relative to the S&P 500 is appropriate. While the Fund’s sector strategy favors a small cyclical tilt, in a low nominal economic growth environment stock picking becomes more important than sector strategy. Only the best companies that offer sound execution and robust business models can prosper in a low nominal growth environment characterized by limited pricing power. The Fund will continue to focus on high quality companies that possess strong balance sheets, promising fundamentals and reasonable valuations.

The strength of the economic recovery and geopolitical risks will continue to be monitored closely. If geopolitical risks recede and the economic outlook sustainably improves, the Fund will be ready to increase cyclical exposure.

For the year ended March 31, 2003, Equity Fund “S” Shares experienced a total return of -29.31 percent.*

As of March 31, 2003, the portfolio was fully invested and widely diversified. The top five holdings were: Medtronic (3.78 percent of the Fund’s net assets), Pfizer (3.57 percent), IBM (3.56 percent), Microsoft (3.46 percent) and United Techologies (3.33 percent).**

PERFORMANCE REPORT Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


The Vintage Growth Fund*

The Iraq conflict dominated market, business, and consumer sentiment, and no doubt contributed to the poor economic data released in February and March. Despite the recent economic weakness, the economy remains structurally sound, although vulnerability to further external shocks remains. Ultimately, war-related weakness should prove to be temporary and will likely subside as the uncertainties are resolved. Meanwhile, the rebound in corporate profits continues to grind on, though the strength of the rebound remains suspect. Confidence in the profit and earnings growth will improve if the economy strengthens in reaction to the strong monetary and fiscal stimulus in place.

The successful test of the July/October 2002 lows and the ensuing March rally signals that the market is starting to gain confidence that better times are ahead. As confidence increases, it is likely that investors will increasingly be attracted to business models that exhibit strong revenue and earnings growth prospects rather than stable dividend paying stories that have dominated market returns over the last three tumultuous years. If this is the case, the Fund is positioned to perform well in the future.

Interestingly, quarter to date, the market has indeed been led by large cap growth stocks. Below-average nominal economic growth, a lower U.S. dollar, and a continued low inflationary environment that favor large caps over small caps. Gauging the relative performance of growth versus value stocks is a challenge, and although growth surged to a 4 – 5 percent advantage over its value brethren in each of the capitalization ranges during the first quarter, this does not yet make a trend. Style performance in the future will be influenced by the resolution of many uncertainties, such as the direction of energy prices, the rate of economic acceleration or deceleration, consumer sentiment, business sentiment, the rate of inventory rebuilding and the slope of the yield curve.

The strength of the economic recovery and geopolitical risks will continue to be monitored closely. If geopolitical risks recede and the economic outlook sustainably improves, the Fund will be ready to increase cyclical growth exposure.

For the year ended March 31, 2003, the Fund experienced a total return of -34.08 percent.**

As of March 31, 2003, the portfolio was fully invested and widely diversified. The top five equity holdings were: Pfizer (3.44 percent of the Fund’s net assets), General Electric (3.24 percent), Intel (2.92 percent), Johnson & Johnson (2.88 percent) and Microsoft (2.68 percent).***

  *  Small-cap companies typically carry additional risk since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure and, by definition are not as well-established as blue-chip companies. Historically, small-company stocks have experienced a greater degree of market volatility than stocks on average.
 
 **  Past performance is not predictive of future results. The value of shares in the Vintage Mutual Funds will fluctuate so that the shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
 
***  The composition of the Fund’s holdings is subject to change.

The performance of the Vintage Growth Fund is measured against the S&P 500 Stock Index, the NASDAQ Composite Index and the S&P Mid Cap 400 Stock Index, which represent the performance of the stock market as a whole, small-capitalization stocks and small- to mid-sized companies respectively. The indices are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of expenses associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for these value-added services. The performance table and graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

VINTAGE MUTUAL FUNDS, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2003

1. Organization:

IMG Mutual Funds, Inc. was incorporated on November 16, 1994 and capitalized on May 1, 1995. IMG Mutual Funds, Inc. was renamed Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc., (the “Fund”), in February 1998. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as amended, as a diversified open-end management investment company issuing its shares in nine series, each with distinct investment objectives and policies. The Fund offers nine series representing diversified portfolios. The Government Assets Fund’s investment objective is to seek current income consistent with maintaining liquidity and stability of principal by investing exclusively in short-term U.S. Treasury bills, notes and other short-term obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities, and repurchase agreements with respect thereto. The investment objective of the Liquid Assets Fund is maximum current income consistent with safety of principal and maintenance of liquidity. The investment objective of the Municipal Assets Fund is maximum current income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with safety of principal and maintenance of liquidity. The investment objective of the Vintage Limited Term Bond Fund is to seek total return from a portfolio of limited term fixed income securities. The Vintage Limited Term Bond Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities including certain types of fixed income securities that may exhibit greater volatility. The Vintage Bond Fund’s investment objective is to obtain income by investing in a portfolio of fixed income securities and, secondarily, to seek capital appreciation consistent with the preservation of capital and prudent investment risk. The Vintage Bond Fund will invest at least 65 percent of its total assets in High-Quality Fixed Income Securities at all times. The investment objective of the Vintage Municipal Bond Fund is to seek current income, consistent with the preservation of capital, that is exempt from federal income taxes. The Vintage Municipal Bond Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of tax-exempt fixed income securities. The investment objective of the Vintage Balanced Fund is to seek long-term growth of capital and income. The Vintage Balanced Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of equity securities and fixed income securities. The investment objective of the Vintage Equity Fund is long-term capital appreciation. The Vintage Equity Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of equity securities of mainly large capitalization companies with strong earnings potential. The Vintage Aggressive Growth Fund changed its name to Vintage Growth Fund effective January 6, 2003. The Fund’s investment objective of long-term capital appreciation through a growth style of investing remains the same and investment policies were not changed. The Vintage Growth Fund invests primarily in common stocks and other equity-type securities of small, medium and large capitalized companies that exhibit a strong potential for price appreciation relative to other equity securities.

Liquid Assets Fund and Municipal Assets Fund offer four and three classes of shares, respectively. S Shares are offered to customers of banks. S Shares are normally offered through financial institutions providing automatic “sweep” investment programs to their own customers. T Shares may be purchased only by financial institutions acting on their own behalf or on behalf of certain customers’ accounts. I Shares may be purchased by individual and institutional investors directly from the Fund’s Distributor. Liquid Assets Fund also offers S2 Shares through financial institutions providing automatic “sweep” investment programs to their own customers. All classes of shares accrue daily dividends in the same manner except each class bears separate distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees.

-60-


 

VINTAGE MUTUAL FUNDS, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
March 31, 2003

The Vintage Equity Fund offers two classes of shares. T Shares of the Vintage Equity Fund are offered solely to fiduciary accounts of AMCORE Investment Group, N. A., over which AMCORE Investment Group, N. A., exercises investment discretion. The Vintage Equity Fund also offers S Shares which accrue daily dividends in the same manner as T Shares except each class bears separate distribution and/or shareholder administrative servicing fees.

Each class of shares has equal rights to earnings, assets, and voting privileges except each class bears different distribution expenses. Each class of shares has exclusive voting rights on matters affecting only that class. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based upon its relative net assets.

2. Significant Accounting Policies:

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of the financial statements. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increase and decrease in net assets from operations during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Securities Valuation

Investments of the Government Assets Fund, the Liquid Assets Fund and the Municipal Assets Fund (the “money market funds”) are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Under the amortized cost method of valuation, discount or premium is amortized on a constant basis to the maturity of the security. In addition, the money market funds may not (a) purchase any instrument with a remaining maturity greater than 397 days unless such investment is subject to a demand feature, or (b) maintain a dollar-weighted-average portfolio maturity which exceeds 90 days.

Investments in common and preferred stocks, commercial paper, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, U.S. Government securities and U.S. Government agency securities of the Vintage Limited Term Bond Fund, the Vintage Bond Fund, the Vintage Municipal Bond Fund, the Vintage Balanced Fund, the Vintage Equity Fund, and the Vintage Growth Fund (collectively the “variable net asset funds”) are valued at their market values determined on the basis of the latest available bid quotation in the principal market (closing sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in which such securities are normally traded. Fixed income securities held in the variable net asset funds are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service that utilizes electronic data processing applications to determine valuations for normal institutional sized trading units of fixed income securities without regard to sale or bid prices when such valuations are believed to more accurately reflect the fair market value of such institutional securities. Otherwise sale or bid prices are used. Fixed income securities having maturities of 60 days or less are valued by the amortized cost method. Investments in investment companies are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by such companies. Securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are not readily available, are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by the investment adviser under the supervision of the Fund’s Board of Directors. The difference between the cost and market values of investments held by the variable net

asset funds is reflected as either unrealized appreciation or depreciation.

Security Transactions and Related Income

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (“trade date”). Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the expected life of the respective securities. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of securities are determined on the identified cost basis.

Repurchase Agreements

The Funds may engage in repurchase agreements with financial institutions such as banks, brokers, or dealers that the investment advisor, Investors Management Group, (“IMG”), deems creditworthy under guidelines approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase such securities at a mutually agreed-upon date and price. An independent custodian must receive delivery of the underlying securities. The market value of these securities (including accrued interest) on acquisition date is required to be an amount equal to 102% of the resale price, and will not be less than 100% of the resale price over the term of the agreement. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates, which may be more or less than the rate on the underlying portfolio securities. The seller, under an agreement to repurchase, is required to maintain, with the Fund’s custodian, the value of collateral held pursuant to the agreement at not less than the repurchase price (including accrued interest). Securities subject to repurchase agreements are held by the Fund’s custodian, another qualified custodian or in the Federal Reserve/ Treasury book-entry system.

Loan Certificates

The Liquid Assets Fund may invest in FmHA Guaranteed Loan Certificates which represent interests in the guaranteed portion of Farmer’s Home Administration (“FmHA”) loans issued by one or more guaranteed loan trusts subject to repurchase on no more than five business days’ written notice. The Loan Certificates are diversified through limitations on certificates sold by any one individual bank.

Trust Certificates

The Liquid Assets Fund may invest in U.S. Government Guaranteed Student Loans (the Trust) which represent interests in student loans sold by certain Iowa banks subject to repurchase on no more than seven days’ written notice. The Trust and the Trust Certificates are diversified through a limitation on certificates sold by any individual bank. Each individual bank may not sell more than five percent of the outstanding Trust Certificates.

Limited Partnerships

The Growth Fund has committed to invest $5,000,000 in BlueStream Ventures, L.P., a venture capital limited partnership. At March 31, 2003, the Fund had invested $2,750,000. Direct investments are recorded when capital contributions are made. This is an illiquid security which is not actively traded. The sale of this security is restricted. Because there is no quoted market value for this security, it is valued by the Fund’s Adviser and approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors.

Securities Purchased on a When-Issued of Delayed-Delivery Basis

Each fund may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis. When-issued securities are securities purchased with delivery to occur at a later date at a stated price and/or yield, thereby involving

-62-


 

VINTAGE MUTUAL FUNDS, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
March 31, 2003

the risk that the price and/or yield obtained may be more or less than those available in the market when delivery takes place. At the time a Fund makes commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued basis, the Fund records the transaction and reflects the value of the security in determining net asset value. A segregated account is established and the Fund maintains cash and marketable securities at least equal in value to commitments for when-issued securities.

Dividends to Shareholders

Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly for the Government Assets Fund, the Liquid Assets Fund and the Municipal Assets Fund. Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid monthly for the Vintage Limited Term Bond Fund, the Vintage Bond Fund, and the Vintage Municipal Bond Fund. Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid quarterly for the Vintage Balanced Fund, the Vintage Equity Fund, and the Vintage Growth Fund. Distributable net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and distributed at least annually for each of the Funds.

Federal Taxes

The Fund’s policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute taxable income to shareholders in amounts that will avoid or minimize federal income or excise taxes of the Fund. Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) for the Funds may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the Funds.

Expenses

Expenses directly related to one of the Funds are charged to that Fund. Expenses relating to the Funds collectively are prorated to the Funds on the basis of each Fund’s relative net assets.

3. Purchases and Sales of Securities:

Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term securities) for the year ended March 31, 2003 are as follows:

The Funds have entered into a management and administration agreement with IMG pursuant to which the Funds pay administrative fees at an annual rate of 0.21 percent of the average daily net assets for the Government Assets Fund, the Liquid Assets Fund and the Municipal Assets Fund and 0.26 percent of the average daily net assets for all other Vintage Mutual Funds.

The Funds have adopted an Administrative Services Plan (the “Services Plan”) pursuant to which each Fund is authorized to pay compensation to banks and other financial institutions (each a “Participating Organization”), which may include AMCORE, its correspondent and affiliated banks, which agree to provide certain ministerial, recordkeeping and/or administrative support services for their customers or account holders (collectively, “customers”) who are beneficial or record owner of Shares of that Fund. In consideration for such services, a Participating Organization receives a fee from a Fund, computed daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of up to 0.25 percent of the average daily net asset value of Shares of that Fund owned beneficially or of record by such Participating Organization’s customers for whom the Participating Organization provides such services. At present, the Funds pay servicing fees as follows: 0.25 percent on S shares of the Liquid Assets, Municipal Assets, and Equity Funds, 0.25 percent on S2 shares of the Liquid Assets Fund, and 0.15 percent on T shares of the Liquid Assets and Municipal Assets Funds.

During the year ended March 31, 2003, AMCORE received $115,109, $10,547, and $400,847 from the Liquid Assets Fund, the Municipal Assets Fund, and the Vintage Equity Fund, respectively.

During the year ended March 31, 2003, certain Funds had investments in Government Assets or Municipal Assets Funds. Included in interest income on the statements of operations is income earned on such investments and the portion of the advisory, administrative and accounting fees waived by IMG that were attributable to assets invested in Government Assets or Municipal Assets Funds, as shown below.

BISYS Fund Services Limited Partnership serves as distributor to the Fund pursuant to a Distribution Agreement. The Distributor receives no compensation under the Distribution Agreement with the Fund, but may receive compensation under a Distribution and Shareholder Service Plan (the “Plan”) adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act under which the Funds are authorized to pay the Distributor for payments it makes to Participating Organizations. As authorized by the Plan, the Distributor will enter into Shareholder Agreements with Participating Organizations, including AMCORE Financial, Inc., or its affiliates, pursuant to which the Participating Organization agrees to provide certain administrative and shareholder support services in connection with Shares of a Fund purchased and held by Customers of the Participating Organization. The Distributor will be compensated by a Fund up to the amount of any payments it makes to Participating Organizations under the Rule 12b-1 Agreement. The maximum fee is 0.50 percent on S Shares of the Liquid Assets Fund and 0.25 percent on all other Classes and Funds. Currently, such fees are limited to 0.40 percent for S Shares of the Liquid Assets Fund, 0.15 percent for S2 Shares of the Liquid Assets Fund, 0.15 percent for S Shares of the Municipal Assets Fund and 0.00 percent for all other Classes and Funds.

-64-


 

VINTAGE MUTUAL FUNDS, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
March 31, 2003

Administrator of the Fund may in its sole discretion make payments to the Distributor to supplement shareholder fees paid by the Fund up to the maximum fee approved by the Plan without further notice to shareholders and at no cost to the Fund. From November 25, 2002, through December 4, 2002, IMG paid distribution fees of 0.10 percent, and beginning December 5, 2002, paid distribution fees of 0.15 percent for S Shares of the Municipal Assets Fund, waiving such fees at the Fund level.

IMG also serves as the Fund’s transfer agent to certain classes of the Government Assets, Liquid Assets and Municipal Assets Funds, pursuant to a Transfer Agency Agreement with the Funds and receives a fee for such services. BISYS Fund Services, Inc., (“BISYS”) serves as transfer agent to the other classes and Funds pursuant to a Transfer Agency Agreement with the Funds and receives a fee for such services. IMG also provides fund accounting services for the Funds pursuant to a Fund Accounting Agreement and receives a fee of 0.03 percent of the average daily net assets of each Fund for such services.

In the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote.

5. Fund Reorganization:

On October 19, 2001, Vintage Bond Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”) acquired all of the assets and assumed the liabilities of Vintage Income Fund (the “Acquired Fund”) in a tax-free reorganization approved by the Acquired Fund’s shareholders. Under the reorganization plan shareholders of the Acquired Fund received shares in the Acquiring Fund in an amount equal to their holdings in the Acquired Fund. Shareholders of the Acquired Fund received 9,978,371 shares of the Acquiring Fund in the transaction.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of portfolio investments, 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 Government Assets Fund, Liquid Assets Fund, Municipal Assets Fund, Limited Term Bond Fund, Bond Fund, Municipal Bond Fund, Balanced Fund, Equity Fund, and Growth Fund (formerly Aggressive Growth Fund), constituting Vintage Mutual Funds, Inc. (the “Funds”) at March 31, 2003, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the four years in the period 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 Fund’s 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. The financial highlights for the period ended March 31, 1999, were audited by other independent accountants whose report dated April 30, 1999, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
