Shareholders’ Letter
 
 
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
 
We are pleased to present the Kinetics Mutual Funds’ Semi-Annual Report for the period ending June 30, 2007. On balance, the Kinetics Family of Mutual Funds had laudable results for the first half of 2007, with gains of 9.73% for The Paradigm Fund, 15.45% for the Small-Cap Opportunities Fund, 13.86% for the Market Opportunities Funds, 7.51% for the Internet Fund, 12.78% for the Medical Fund, and 2.40% for the Emerging Internet Fund. This compares with first-half 2007 total returns, of 6.95% and 8.17% for the S&P 500 Index and the NASDAQ Composite Index, respectively. The Water Infrastructure Fund began operations on the last business day of the six month period ending June 30, 2007.
 
During the first half of 2007, the performance of the Kinetics Funds, was driven by the underlying business operations of the investments held in the various funds. These investments included publicly-traded exchanges, investment banks, asset management firms, electric and natural gas utilities, energy companies involved in oil and gas production, diversified holding companies, various infrastructure and financial Chinese companies along with other operating enterprises. In general, our portfolios, irrespective of industries or sectors, consist of businesses that exhibit high returns on equity, long product life cycles and a differentiated or highly competitive position in their respective product or service markets. Our investment philosophy and strategy is to purchase such enterprises at discount to their long-term intrinsic values and to permit their business plans to come to fruition.
 
We continue to inform our shareholders through our website, www.kineticsfunds.com. This website provides a broad array of information, including recent portfolio holdings, quarterly investment commentaries, newsflashes, recent performance data, and online access to account information.
 
Kinetics offers the following funds to investors:
 
The Paradigm Fund focuses on companies that currently have, or which should soon have, sustainable high returns on equity. The Fund has produced attractive returns over the last 71/2 years.

Table of Contents

 
 
The Small Cap Opportunities Fund focuses on undervalued and special situation small capitalization equities that have the potential for rewarding long-term investment results.
 
The Medical Fund is a sector fund, offering an investment in scientific discovery within the promising field of medical research, particularly in the development of cancer treatments and therapies. As a sector fund, The Medical Fund is likely to have heightened volatility.
 
The Internet Fund is a sector fund that focuses on companies engaged in the internet and Internet-related activities. As such, this Fund has been, and is likely to continue to be, quite volatile. The Internet Fund is not designed to be a major component of one’s equity exposure. We view this Fund’s holdings as publicly traded venture capital and are quite aware that many of these investments will not fulfill their early promise. However, we expect that, over time, some small percentage will develop into excellent investments, allowing the fund to produce overall satisfactory, albeit lumpy, returns.
 
The Internet Emerging Growth Fund focuses upon early life cycle companies that are positioned on the edge of the curve in the evolution on Internet-related technology. The statements made above about the Internet Fund are equally applicable to this fund.
 
The Market Opportunities Fund focuses on those companies that benefit from increasing transactional volume, such as publicly-traded exchanges, or that act as facilitators, such as gaming companies, airports and publicly-traded toll roads.
 
The Water Infrastructure Fund is a sector fund that invests in global companies engaged in water infrastructure and natural resources with a specific water theme, as well as related activities. This Fund is sub-advised by Aqua Terra Asset Management, LLC.

Investment Commentary
 
 
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
 
As of the end of July, the equity markets have experienced heightened negative volatility. The proximate causes of the recent declines include problems in the sub-prime lending market, rising oil prices, weaker than expected housing numbers, and uneven earnings results for the second quarter. These issues will, in great probability, have a dampening effect on the consumer and, hence, on the economy. However, in the words of J.P. Morgan, Sr., uttered after a period of declining securities prices, “It always stops raining”. As stated in the past, we do not hold a view regarding the prospects for the overall market. Rather, we select our portfolios based on the business operations of the companies we own. From this perspective, we remain optimistic, despite any recent turmoil.
 
Equities investing, which constitutes deferred consumption, requires patience because stock price movements in the short term, 1 to 2 years, are often random. To allow the business operations of the companies one owns to start generating decent returns requires a 3 to 5 year time horizon, if not longer. Thus, as always, we would counsel any investor with cash needs expected to develop in less than 3 years to invest in more conservative alternatives, such as U.S. Treasuries. The preceding comment is merely the recognition of the nature of stock investing and not a prediction of what is going to unfold in the shorter term. Too frequently, investors experience a poor investment result even when they are with capable managers, primarily because the time horizon of the investor is out of sync with the parameters of stock investing and/or because the individual investor is chasing recent past performance.
 
Our holdings in Chinese stocks, which are owned liberally in various funds, are not an expression of our knowledge of China, but rather, a portfolio construction concept. We believe there is virtually no global asset class that one can invest in today that will not be, or that currently is not, influenced by China’s development. The economic story of our lifetimes may well be the industrialization of more than half the world’s population (China, India, and other developing countries). Even two-year U.S. Treasury notes would likely be affected should China stop investing its considerable excess reserves in U.S. Treasuries. Thus, as allocators of


5

capital, we understand that constructing a “U.S. only” portfolio does not exempt us from the competitive pressures of China’s development. Our role is to make sure that we, and you, are compensated for that risk. In order to best benefit from this risk, we thought it prudent to own companies that would provide us with substantial rewards should China continue to develop into an economic giant. We have chosen to invest in Chinese companies that derive the overwhelming majority of their earnings from within China proper for three main reasons. First, we find the underlying economics of these businesses compelling. Second, we believe expressing our exposure in this fashion gives us an effective put against the dollar’s decline. Should the dollar continue its decline, we believe it will most likely be in relation to various Asian currencies. Third, we believe the world’s global indices will eventually be reconfigured to include a greater exposure to China. China, which by some measures is the world’s second largest economy, is grossly underweighted in global indices. As our representation of foreign securities has grown in certain funds, the performance of those funds, will, on occasion, be out of sync with what is happening in the U.S. stock market. Note that portfolio composition is subject to change.
 
We thank you for your continued support as we endeavor to produce satisfying investment results.

Disclosure
This material is intended to be reviewed in conjunction with a current prospectus, which includes all fees and expenses that apply to a continued investment program, as well as information regarding the risk factors, policies and objectives of the Funds. Read it carefully before investing.
 
Mutual Fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Because the Funds [other than The Paradigm Fund, The Small Cap Opportunities Fund, The Market Opportunities Fund and The Kinetics Government Money Market Fund] invest in a single industry or geographic region, their shares are subject to a higher degree of risk than funds with a higher level of diversification. Internet and biotechnology stocks are subject to a rate of change in technology, obsolescence and competition that is generally higher than that of other industries and have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Past performance is no guarantee of future performance.
 
Because smaller companies [for The Internet Emerging Growth Fund and The Small Cap Opportunities Fund] often have narrower markets and limited financial resources, they present more risk than larger, more well established, companies.
 
As non-diversified [other than The Kinetics Government Money Market Fund] and single industry funds, the value of their shares may fluctuate more than shares invested in a broader range of industries and companies.
 
An investment in the Kinetics Government Money Market Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.
 
Unlike other investment companies that directly acquire and manage their own portfolios of securities, The Kinetics Mutual Funds pursue their investment objectives by investing all of their investable assets in a corresponding portfolio series of Kinetics Portfolios Trust.
 
The information concerning the Funds included in the shareholder report contains certain forward-looking statements about the factors that may affect the performance of the Funds in the future. These

Table of Contents

statements are based on Fund management’s predictions and expectations concerning certain future events and their expected impact on the Funds, such as performance of the economy as a whole and of specific industry sectors, changes in the levels of interest rates, the impact of developing world events, and other factors that may influence the future performance of the Funds. Management believes these forward-looking statements to be reasonable, although they are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Actual events may cause adjustments in portfolio management strategies from those currently expected to be employed.

Expense Example
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
 
Shareholders incur two type of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvestments of dividends or other distributions made by the Fund, 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 investors understand the 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 period from January 1, 2007 to June 30, 2007.
 
Actual Expenses
 
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. Unlike other mutual funds that directly acquire and manage their own portfolio securities, each Feeder Fund invests all of its investable assets in a corresponding Master Portfolio, a separately registered investment company. The Master Portfolio, in turn, invests in securities. With this type of organization, expenses can accrue specifically to the Master Portfolio or the Feeder Fund or both. The Adviser for the Master Portfolios has directed a certain amount of the Master Portfolio’s trades to brokers believed to provide the best execution and, as a result, the Master Portfolios have generated direct brokerage credits to reduce certain service provider fees. Each Feeder Fund records its proportionate share of the Master Portfolio’s expenses, including directed brokerage credits, on a daily basis. Any expense reductions include Feeder Fund-specific expenses as well as the expenses allocated from the Master Portfolio.
 
The Feeder Funds will charge shareholder fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks, and exchanges executed by telephone between the Feeder Fund and any other series of Kinetics Mutual Funds, Inc. The Feeder Fund’s transfer agent charges a $5.00 transaction fee to shareholder accounts for telephone exchanges between any two series of Kinetics Mutual Funds, Inc. The Feeder Fund’s transfer agent does not charge a transaction fee for written exchange requests. IRA accounts are assessed a $15.00 annual fee. Finally, as a disincentive to market-timing transactions, the Feeder Funds will assess a 2.00% fee on certain redemption or exchange of Fund shares held for less than thirty days after purchase. These fees will be paid to the Feeder Funds to help offset transaction costs. The Feeder Funds reserve the right to waive the

Table of Contents

redemption fee, subject to their sole discretion, in instances deemed not to be disadvantageous to the Feeder Funds or shareholders.
 
You may use the information provided in the first line, together with the amounts 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 the Feeder Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Feeder Funds’ actual returns. 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 the Feeder Funds 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.

1.  Organization
 
Kinetics Mutual Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and is incorporated in the State of Maryland. The Company is an open-end management investment company issuing its shares in series. One billion shares are authorized for the Company with a par value of $0.001 per share. The series of the Company presently authorized are The Internet Fund (“Internet”), The Internet Emerging Growth Fund (“Emerging”),The Paradigm Fund (“Paradigm”), The Medical Fund (“Medical”), The Small Cap Opportunities Fund (“Small Cap”), The Market Opportunities Fund (“Market Opportunities”), The Water Infrastructure Fund (“Water Infrastructure”) and The Kinetics Government Money Market Fund (“Government”). Investment operations of the Company began on October 21, 1996 (Internet), September 30, 1999 (Medical), December 31, 1999 (Emerging and Paradigm), February 3, 2000 (Government), March 20, 2000 (Small Cap), January 31, 2006 (Market Opportunities) and June 29, 2007 (Water Infrastructure). Each series, unlike many other investment companies which directly acquire and manage their own portfolios of securities, seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of its investable assets in a corresponding portfolio series (each a “Master Portfolio” and collectively the “Master Portfolios”) of Kinetics Portfolios Trust (the “Trust”).
 
On April 28, 2000 (January 31, 2006 with respect to The Market Opportunities Fund and June 29, 2007 with respect to the Water Infrastructure Fund), each series in the Company entered into a master-feeder fund structure. By entering into this structure, each series (each a “Feeder Fund” and collectively, the “Feeder Funds”) invested all of its assets in a corresponding Master Portfolio which had the same investment objective as the Feeder Fund. Each Master Portfolio has multiple feeder funds. Each Feeder Fund receives a proportionate amount of interest in the Master Portfolio equal to its relative contribution of capital. Thus, each Feeder Fund is allocated its portion of income, gains (losses) and expenses from the Master Portfolio.

Each Feeder Fund’s respective interest in the corresponding Master Portfolio as of June 30, 2007 is as follows:
 
         
    Interest in
 
    Master Portfolio  
 
Internet Fund
    99.993%

Government Fund
    97.485%  
Market Opportunities Fund
    99.975%  
Water Infrastructure Fund
    80.000%  
 
Prior to the conversion to a master-feeder fund structure, on April 28, 2000, each then existing series conducted its own investment operations.
 
Effective April 26, 2001, the Internet, Paradigm and Medical Funds issued an additional class of shares — Advisor Class A. Effective December 31, 2001, the Small Cap Fund issued an additional class of shares — Advisor Class A. Effective January 31, 2006, the Market Opportunities Fund began issuing Advisor Class A shares. Effective June 29, 2007, the Water Infrastructure Fund began issuing Advisor Class A shares. Advisor Class A shares are subject to an annual Rule 12b-1 fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. The Advisor Class A shares are also subject to a front-end sales charge of 5.75%. Effective June 28, 2002 the Paradigm Fund issued an additional class of shares — Advisor Class C. Effective February 16, 2007 the Internet, Medical, Small Cap Opportunities and Market Opportunities Funds issued an additional class of shares — Advisor Class C. Effective June 29, 2007, the Water Infrastructure Fund began issuing Advisor Class C shares. Advisor Class C shares are subject to an annual Rule 12b-1 fee of 0.75% of average daily net assets. Effective May 27, 2005, the Paradigm Fund issued an additional class of shares — the Institutional Class. Effective August 12, 2005, the Small Cap Opportunities Fund issued an additional class of shares — the Institutional Class. Effective June 29, 2007, the Water Infrastructure Fund began issuing Institutional Class shares. The Institutional Class shares are subject to a service fee of 0.20% of average daily net assets. All other classes are subject to a service fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. The No Load Class and the Institutional Class shares do not pay a 12b-1 fee or have a sales charge. Each class of shares for each Fund has identical rights and privileges except with respect to the Rule 12b-1 fees paid by the Advisor Class A and Class C shares, the sales charge on the Advisor Class A and Class C shares, the service fees paid by the

No Load Class, Advisor Class A and Advisor Class C versus those paid by the Institutional Class, voting rights on matters pertaining to a single class of shares and the exchange privileges of each class of shares. Shares of each Feeder Fund, except the Government Fund, will assess a 2.00% redemption fee (with exceptions) on shares redeemed or exchanged within 30 days of purchase.
Refer to the Master Portfolio’s financial statements to obtain information about the investment objective of the corresponding Feeder Fund. The financial statements of the Master Portfolios, including the portfolio of investments in securities, are contained elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Feeder Funds’ financial statements.
 
2.  Significant Accounting Policies
 
Security Valuation
Master Portfolio securities (other than Government) that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price on the day the valuation is made. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. All equity securities that are traded using the National Association of Securities Dealers’ Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). In the event market quotations are not readily available or if events occur that may materially affect the value of a particular security between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), “fair value” will be determined. Purchased options, futures, unlisted U.S. securities and listed U.S. securities not traded on the valuation date for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. Fixed-income securities (other than obligations having a maturity of 60 days or less) are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from pricing services, which take into account appropriate factors such as institutional sized trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data.
 
Investments in The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio and instruments with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available (including restricted securities) are valued in good faith at fair value using methods determined by the Board of Trustees of


36


Table of Contents

 
KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — FEEDER FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
the Master Portfolios. At June 30, 2007, none of the Master Portfolios held securities which were fair valued.
 
Repurchase Agreements
Each Master Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with banks that are members of the Federal Reserve System or securities dealers who are members of a national securities exchange or are primary dealers in U.S. Government Securities. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Trust’s policy that the Master Portfolio receive, as collateral, securities whose market value, including accrued interest, at all times will be at least equal to 100% of the amount invested by the Master Portfolio in each repurchase agreement. If the seller defaults, and the value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Master Portfolio may be delayed or limited.
 
Written Option Accounting
The Master Portfolios may write (sell) call or put options for trading or hedging purposes. When a Master Portfolio writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Master Portfolio is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. By writing the option, the Master Portfolio may become obligated during the term of the option to deliver or purchase the securities underlying the option at the exercise price if the option is exercised. Option contracts are valued at the average of the current bid and asked price reported on the day of the valuation. When an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Master Portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss if the cost of the closing transaction differs from the premium received when the option was sold, without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When an option is exercised, the premium originally received decreases the cost basis of the underlying security (or increases the proceeds on the security sold short) and the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the security (or closing of the short sale). As collateral for uncovered written options, the Master Portfolio is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the market value of the purchase obligation for put options or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract for call options.

Foreign Currency Translations
The books and records of the Master Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. For the Master Portfolios, foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) market values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by an approved pricing service, and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Master Portfolios do not isolate and treat as ordinary income that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held during the period. However, for federal income tax purposes, the Master Portfolios do isolate and treat as ordinary income the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising from actual foreign currency transactions and the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising between trade date and settlement date.
 
Restricted Securities
The Master Portfolios may invest in restricted securities. These securities are valued by the Master Portfolios after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions and the issuer’s financial performance. The Master Portfolios have no right to require registration of unregistered securities. At June 30, 2007, the Master Portfolios did not hold any investment securities which were determined to be illiquid pursuant to the guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
When-Issued Securities
The Master Portfolios may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. Although the purchase amounts of these securities are established at the time the purchaser enters into the agreement, these securities may be delivered and paid for at a future date. The Master Portfolios record purchases of when-issued securities and reflect the values of such securities in determining net asset value in the same manner as other portfolio securities. The Master Portfolios maintain at all times cash or other liquid assets in an amount at least equal to the amount of outstanding commitments for when-issued securities.
 
Securities Lending
Each Master Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers by entering directly into lending arrangements with such broker-dealers or indirectly through repurchase agreements with respect to no more than 331/3% of


38


Table of Contents

 
KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — FEEDER FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
the total assets of each Portfolio (including any collateral posted) or 50% of the total assets of each Portfolio (excluding any collateral posted). Securities lending and repurchase transactions will be fully collateralized at all times with cash and/or short-term debt obligations. The Master Portfolios receive interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned.
 
Expense Allocation
Common expenses incurred by Feeder Funds are allocated among the Feeder Funds (i) based upon relative average net assets, (ii) as incurred on a specific identification basis, or (iii) equally among the Feeder Funds, depending on the nature of the expenditure.
 
Each Feeder Fund records its proportionate share of the Master Portfolio’s expenses on a daily basis. In addition, each Feeder Fund accrues its own separate expenses. Any cap on expenses includes Feeder Fund-specific expenses as well as the expenses allocated from the Master Portfolio.
 
Federal Income Taxes
Each Master Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be subject to taxation on its share of the Portfolio’s ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that the Portfolio’s assets will be managed so an investor in the Portfolio can satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
It is the Feeder Funds’ policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Feeder Funds intend to distribute investment company net taxable income and net capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is recorded. Dividends from net investment income and distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually. The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from the characterization for federal income tax purposes due to differences in the recognition of income, expenses and gain items for financial statement and tax purposes. Additionally, the Feeder Funds may utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes. Where appropriate, reclassifications between capital accounts are made for such differences that are permanent in nature.
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management


39


Table of Contents

 
KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — FEEDER FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Other
Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Other noncash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Company’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.
 
3.  Investment Adviser
 
The Trust has entered into Investment Advisory Agreements (the “Agreements”) with Kinetics Asset Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”), with whom certain officers and trustees of the Trust are affiliated, to furnish investment advisory services to the Master Portfolios. Under the terms of the Agreements, the Master Portfolios compensate the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 1.25% of each Master Portfolio’s average daily net assets, except for The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio, which compensates the Adviser at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Master Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
 
The Adviser has voluntarily agreed to continue to pay certain operating expenses as deemed appropriate. The Adviser may discontinue the voluntary reimbursement at any time; these reimbursements are not subject to recapture. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the amounts earned by the Adviser and the reimbursed expenses for the Feeder Funds are as follows:
 
                 
    Internet   Emerging

The Adviser receives a shareholder servicing fee from the No Load, Class A and Class C shares of the Feeder Funds pursuant to a Shareholder Servicing Agreement in the amount equal to 0.25% of the Feeder Fund’s average daily net assets. For the Institutional Class the Adviser receives a shareholder servicing fee in the amount equal to 0.20% of the Institutional Class average daily net assets. At this time the Investment Adviser has contractually agreed to waive and/or reimburse the portion of the Institutional Class shareholder servicing fee in excess of 0.05% of its average daily net assets until at least May 1, 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 the Adviser waived $440,804 and $189,325 in shareholder servicing fees for the Institutional Class of the Paradigm Fund and the Small Cap Opportunities Fund, respectively. The Adviser is responsible for paying a portion of these shareholder servicing fees to various agents that have a written shareholder servicing agreement with the Adviser and that perform shareholder servicing functions and maintenance of shareholder accounts on behalf of their clients who own shares of the Feeder Funds.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Feeder Funds were allocated $24,000 for the services of the Chief Compliance Officer employed by the Adviser.
 
The Company, on behalf of the Funds, has adopted two Retail Distribution Plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the “12b-1 Plans”). One Plan is for Advisor Class A shares, while the other Plan is for Advisor Classes B and C shares. Under the first Plan, Advisor Class A shares may pay up to an annual rate of 0.50% of the average daily net asset value of shares to the Distributor or other qualified recipients under the Plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, payments under the 12b-1 Plan for the Advisor Class A shares of the Internet, Paradigm, Medical, Small Cap and Market Opportunities Funds were limited to 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of such shares of such Funds. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Advisor Class A shares of the Internet, Paradigm, Medical, Small Cap and Market Opportunities Funds incurred expenses of $334, $302,812, $1,300, $21,175 and $21,241, respectively, pursuant to the 12b-1 Plan. Under the second Plan, Advisor Classes B and C shares pay an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net asset value of such shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, Internet, Paradigm,

Medical, Small Cap Opportunities and Market Opportunities Advisor Class C Shares incurred expenses of $87, $564,570, $136, $830 and $3,900, respectively, pursuant to the 12b-1 Plan. Through June 30, 2007, the Funds had not issued any Advisor Class B shares.
 
Kinetics Funds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) acts as the Fund’s principal underwriter in a continuous public offering of the Fund’s shares. The Distributor is an affiliate of the Adviser. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Distributor received $407, $315,565, $1,902, $19,781 and $52,759 from sales loads from the Internet, Paradigm, Medical, Small Cap and Market Opportunities Funds.
 
4.  Reclassification of Capital Accounts
 
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share. For the year ended December 31, 2006, each Fund recorded the following reclassifications to the accounts listed below:
 
                         
    INCREASE (DECREASE)  
          Accumulated

7.  New Accounting Pronouncements (Unaudited)
 
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Trusts’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. To the extent that a tax benefit of a position is not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold, the Trusts would report an income tax expense in the statement of operations. Adoption of FIN 48 is required as of the date of the last Net Asset Value (“NAV”) calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Management has evaluated the impact of FIN 48 and has determined there is no material impact to the financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” The Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs) and (2) the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and is to be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which this Statement is initially applied. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FAS 157, and the impact, if any, of this standard on the Trusts’ financial statements has not yet been determined.

KINETICS PORTFOLIOS TRUST — MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
1.  Organization
 
The Kinetics Portfolios Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware Statutory Trust on March 14, 2000 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company issuing its beneficial interests in series, each series representing a distinct portfolio with its own investment objectives and policies. The series currently authorized are The Internet Portfolio, The Internet Emerging Growth Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio, The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio, The Market Opportunities Portfolio and The Water Infrastructure Portfolio (the “Master Portfolios”). Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the Master Portfolios, with the exception of The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio, are “non-diversified” series of the Trust. The Market Opportunities Portfolio commenced operations on January 31, 2006 and The Water Infrastructure Portfolio commenced operations on June 29, 2007. Each of the remaining Master Portfolios commenced operations on April 28, 2000.
 
Each Master Portfolio is a Master Investment Portfolio in a master-feeder fund structure. Each Master Portfolio has multiple feeder funds invested in the Master Portfolio. By contributing assets to the Master Portfolio, the feeder funds receive a beneficial interest in the Master Portfolio. The Master Portfolio then invests the contributed assets in portfolio securities and allocates income, gains (losses) and expenses to the feeder funds based on the funds’ proportionate interest in the Master Portfolio.
 
Each of the Master Portfolios, with the exception of The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio, seeks to provide investors with long-term capital growth. The Internet Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in the Internet and Internet-related activities. The Internet Emerging Growth Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of small and medium capitalization U.S. and foreign growth emerging companies engaged in the Internet and Internet-related activities. The Paradigm Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies that the investment adviser believes are undervalued and that have high returns on equity and are well positioned to reduce their costs, extend the reach of their distribution channels and experience significant growth in revenues. The Medical Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in medical research, pharmaceutical treatments and related medical technology with a focus on companies engaged in cancer research and drug development. The Small Cap

Opportunities Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign small capitalization companies that provide attractive valuation opportunities due to special situations such as lack of institutional ownership, lack of significant analyst coverage or companies with sound fundamentals that have experienced a short-term earnings shortfall. The Market Opportunities Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in capital markets or related to capital markets or in the gaming industry. The Water Infrastructure Portfolio invests primarily in securities issued by U.S. and foreign companies involved in water infrastructure and natural resources with a specific water theme and related activities. The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio seeks to provide investors with current income consistent with the preservation of capital and maintenance of liquidity by investing in money market instruments issued by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities.
 
2.  Significant Accounting Policies
 
Security Valuation
Master Portfolio securities (other than Government) that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price on the day the valuation is made. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. All equity securities that are traded using the National Association of Securities Dealers’ Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). In the event market quotations are not readily available or if events occur that may materially affect the value of a particular security between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of regular trading on the NYSE, “fair value” will be determined. Purchased options, futures, unlisted U.S. securities and listed U.S. securities not traded on the valuation date for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. Fixed-income securities (other than obligations having a maturity of 60 days or less) are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from pricing services, which take into account appropriate factors such as institutional sized trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data. Investments in The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio and instruments purchased with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available (including restricted


122


Table of Contents

 
KINETICS PORTFOLIOS TRUST — MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

securities) will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods determined by the Board of Trustees of the Master Portfolios. At June 30, 2007, there were no fair valued securities held by the Master Portfolios.
 
Written Option Accounting
The Master Portfolios may write (sell) call or put options for trading or hedging purposes. When a Master Portfolio writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Master Portfolio is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. By writing the option, the Master Portfolio may become obligated during the term of the option to deliver or purchase the securities underlying the option at the exercise price if the option is exercised. Option contracts are valued at the average of the current bid and asked price reported on the day of the valuation. When an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Master Portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss if the cost of the closing transaction differs from the premium received when the option was sold, without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When an option is exercised, the premium originally received decreases the cost basis of the underlying security (or increases the proceeds on the security sold short) and the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the security (or closing of the short sale). As collateral for uncovered written options, the Master Portfolio is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the market value of the purchase obligation for put options or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract for call options.
 
Foreign Currency Translations
The books and records of the Master Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. For the Master Portfolios, foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) market value of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by an approved pricing service, and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Master Portfolios do not isolate and treat as ordinary income that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate from the fluctuations arising from changes in the


123


Table of Contents

 
KINETICS PORTFOLIOS TRUST — MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
market prices of securities held during the period. However, for federal income tax purposes, the Master Portfolios do isolate and treat as ordinary income the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising from actual foreign currency transactions and the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising between trade date and settlement date.
 
Restricted Securities
The Master Portfolios may invest in restricted securities. These securities are valued by the Master Portfolios after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions and the issuer’s financial performance. The Master Portfolios have no right to require registration of unregistered securities. At June 30, 2007, the Master Portfolios did not hold any investment securities which were determined to be illiquid pursuant to the guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
 
When-Issued Securities
The Master Portfolios may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. Although the purchase amounts of these securities are established at the time the purchaser enters into the agreement, these securities may be delivered and paid for at a future date. The Master Portfolios record purchases of when-issued securities and reflect the values of such securities in determining net asset value in the same manner as other portfolio securities. The Master Portfolios maintain at all times cash or other liquid assets in an amount at least equal to the amount of outstanding commitments for when-issued securities.
 
Expense Reduction
The Adviser has directed a certain amount of the Master Portfolios’ trades to brokers believed to provide the best execution and, as a result, it has generated directed brokerage credits to reduce certain service provider fees. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the total expenses of The Internet Portfolio, The Internet Emerging Growth Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio and The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio were reduced by $9,878, $399, $34,156, $10,059 and $130,234, respectively, by using directed brokerage credits. In accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such amounts are required to be shown as an expense and have been included in each of the service provider fees in the Statement of Operations.
 
In addition, to the directed brokerage credits, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“USBFS”), the Master Portfolios’ service provider, voluntarily agreed to


124


Table of Contents

 
KINETICS PORTFOLIOS TRUST — MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
waive all its service provider fees for the four months ended December 31, 2006 for consideration received through the Master Portfolios securities lending agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the total expenses of The Internet Portfolio, The Internet Emerging Growth Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio, The Market Opportunities Portfolio, and The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio were reduced by $53,882, $4,015, $780,229, $8,929, $156,016, $10,851 and $3,968, respectively.
 
Securities Lending
Each Master Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers by entering directly into lending arrangements with such broker-dealers or indirectly through repurchase agreements with respect to no more than 331/3% of the total assets of each Portfolio (including any collateral posted) or 50% of the total assets of each Portfolio (excluding any collateral posted). Securities lending and repurchase transactions will be fully collateralized at all times with cash and/or short-term debt obligations. The Master Portfolios receive interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned.
 
Expense Allocation
Common expenses incurred by the Master Portfolios are allocated among the Master Portfolios (i) based upon relative average net assets, (ii) as incurred on a specific identification basis, or (iii) equally among the Master Portfolios, depending on the nature of the expenditure. All expenses incurred by the Master Portfolios are allocated to the feeder funds daily based on their proportionate interest in the Master Portfolio.
 
Federal Income Taxes
 
Each Master Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be subject to taxation on its share of the Portfolio’s ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that the Portfolio’s assets will be managed so an investor in the Portfolio can satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Other
Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis.
 
3.  Investment Adviser
 
The Trust has entered into Investment Advisory Agreements (the “Agreements”) with Kinetics Asset Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”), with whom certain officers and trustees of the Trust are affiliated, to furnish investment advisory services to the Master Portfolios. Under the terms of the Agreements, the Master Portfolios compensate the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 1.25% of each Master Portfolio’s average daily net assets, except for The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio, which compensates the Adviser at a rate of 0.50% of the Master Portfolio’s average daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, The Internet Portfolio, The Internet Emerging Growth Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio, The Kinetics Government Money Market Portfolio and The Market Opportunities Portfolio incurred expenses of $830,936, $25,236, $17,068,158, $108,355, $4,403,389, $2,936 and $232,733, respectively, pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreements.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Trust was allocated $12,000 for the services of the Chief Compliance Officer employed by the Adviser.
 
4.   Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts by Trustees of Kinetics Portfolios Trust
 
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees held on March 5, 2007, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, approved the Agreements with respect to the Internet, Internet Emerging Growth, Paradigm, Medical, Small Cap Opportunities, Kinetics Government Money Market and Market Opportunities Portfolios. In reaching a decision to renew the Agreements, the Board of Trustees, including all of the Trustees who are not interested persons under the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), considered, among others (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser; (2) the performance of the Portfolios over 3 months, one, three and five year periods ended December 31, 2006 compared to the median of its relevant Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”) peer group; (3) the contractual and actual compensation to be paid under the Agreements as compared to the compensation paid to relevant Lipper peer groups; (4) the expense ratios of the Master Portfolios, with


126


Table of Contents

 
KINETICS PORTFOLIOS TRUST — MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
expense waivers, as compared to expense ratios for relevant peer groups of Lipper portfolios; (5) the qualifications of the Adviser’s personnel, portfolio management capabilities and investment methodologies; (6) the Adviser’s operations, compliance program and policies with respect to Code of Ethics; (7) the financial condition of the Adviser; (8) the cost of services to be provided by the Adviser and the Adviser’s profitability from each Master Portfolio for the years ended December 31, 2006; (9) “fall-out” benefits to the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Master Portfolios; (10) the extent to which economies of scale are relevant given the Master Portfolios’ current asset size and current asset growth potential; and (11) that each Master Portfolio other than the Government Money Market Portfolio is designed for long-term investors. The Lipper peer group information was provided by U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Company’s administrator.
 
In addition, the Board of Trustees approved an investment advisory agreement for the Water Infrastructure Fund (which commenced operations on June 29, 2007). The Board considered many of the same factors listed above, except for performance data since the Fund is new. In addition, the Board of Trustees also considered the experience and qualifications of the Fund’s proposed sub-adviser, Aqua Terra Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), which made a presentation to the Board. The Sub-Adviser distributed and reviewed information about, among other things, the Fund’s proposed investment team, water related investment themes and various water related funds, the Sub-Adviser’s experience managing mutual funds, its relationship with other investment advisers, estimated profitability and the expense structure of the new Fund.
 
The Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, concluded that: they were satisfied with the quality of services provided by the Adviser in advising the Master Portfolios, based on the services that the Adviser would provide to each Portfolio under the applicable Investment Adviser Agreement and the expenses incurred by the Adviser on the performance of such services and considering the Advisers’ fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements with respect to the Portfolios, the compensation to be paid to the Adviser was fair and reasonable; the profits earned by the Adviser were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to each Master Portfolio; and that each Master Portfolio was not large enough to attain significant economies of scale.

As of June 30, 2007, the Master Portfolios had loaned securities that were collateralized by cash. The cash collateral is invested by the custodian in a money market pooled account approved by the Adviser. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the Master Portfolio could experience a delay in recovering its securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. The Master Portfolio receives interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned. The Master Portfolios will continue to receive dividends and interest on all securities loaned. Gain or loss in the fair value of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan will be accounted for by the Master Portfolios. The value of the securities on loan and the value of the related collateral at June 30, 2007, were as follows:
 
                 
    Securities     Collateral  
 
The Internet Portfolio
  $ 5,667,951     $ 5,933,600  
The Internet Emerging Growth Portfolio
    29,928       31,900  
The Paradigm Portfolio
    200,409,673       205,982,162

8.  New Accounting Pronouncements (Unaudited)
 
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Trusts’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. To the extent that a tax benefit of a position is not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold, the Trusts would report an income tax expense in the statement of operations. Adoption of FIN 48 is required as of the date of the last Net Asset Value (“NAV”) calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Management has evaluated the impact of FIN 48 and has determined there is no material impact to the financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” The Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs) and (2) the reporting entity’s own

132

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
June 30, 2007 (Unaudited)
 
assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and is to be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which this Statement is initially applied. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FAS 157, and the impact, if any, of this standard on the Trusts’ financial statements has not yet been determined.
