Letter to Shareholders


Dear Fellow Shareholder:

As most investors expected, the U.S. economy slowed over the course of the past six months and the rest of the world continued on a generally stable growth trajectory. In fact, if there were real surprises, they were that 1) the U.S. economy didn’t slow more under the well publicized strain of both the housing slowdown and related meltdown in the sub-prime lending sector and 2) the global capital markets demand for higher risk-oriented assets is not simply related to the so called “carry trade” but something deeper and more durable. Underpinned by a global economy performing generally within expectations, and, aside from a sharp and short-lived market correction beginning in late February, the domestic and foreign stock markets climbed steadily, providing strong gains for the period. Meanwhile, bonds provided satisfactory returns, essentially earning their coupons as interest rates moved only marginally, and credit spreads remained at historically slim levels.

While the strong equity market return may seem counterintuitive in the face of slowing earnings, a significantly deteriorating housing market and the stress fractures among the mortgage lending industry, there are several positive trends continuing to run that lead to these results. First, because of widespread belief that the economy would be slowing, investors’ expectations for earnings growth were relatively conservative, and most companies exceeded these modest expectations during the period. Furthermore, although the U.S. economy is slowing, the global economy is healthy, and global growth is significant in it’s contribution to U.S. companies’ earnings. In addition, the amount of liquidity searching for return in a relatively low interest rate environment remains historically high. A clear illustration of this is the enormous amount of money currently gathered in private equity pools searching for and buying up public companies on a daily basis. Low volatility and low interest rates have encouraged investors to increase leverage, which has thus far been rewarding.

Speaking of interest rates, at the beginning of the period (late 2006) investors were confidently predicting and wishing that the Fed would reduce rates in the near future, which was consistent with the expectations for a real slowdown in the economy. However, more recently those expectations for a near term rate cut have evolved into uncertainty over the outlook for any rate cut at all, as the Fed has been satisfied to stand pat and communicate concerns balanced between too much inflation risk versus a slowing economy. Again, while the economy has slowed, it does not appear to be falling into recession. Credit spreads remain tight because of a high demand for yield, a relatively low issuance of debt, and historically low default rates.

Although these conditions cannot be sustained indefinitely, they can, without a shock or catalyst, remain in place for some time. Advances in technology and the globalization of the labor force have helped increase competition, improve productivity and keep the inflation rate at bay even with rising commodity and energy prices. Most stock market observers will agree that valuation ratios are reasonable and very close to long-term averages. Therefore, the markets direction will be driven by investor perception of economic developments rather than by any need for the market to correct from valuations that are either too high or low.

Noting the risks and known stresses present in the U.S. economy, we believe that the current strength of many foreign economies, the continued full U.S. employment picture, and the continued high levels of corporate free cash flow will all help to pull the U.S. economy through a period of slow growth. Hence, we continue to believe that investors should maintain their portfolios with allocations near their long-run targets, and take full advantage of opportunities to participate in the growth of the global economy. At this stage, the main risk to the outlook for U.S. equities seems to be that investors expectations for interest rates could swing like a pendulum from expecting a rate cut to fearing a rate hike. While this has not occurred, as we have observed above, expectations have swung towards the center point. In any event, investors will be well served by an appropriately balanced and globally diversified portfolio.

About Your Fund’s Expenses (unaudited)


As a shareholder of the Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. This Fund incurs only ongoing costs. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund 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 as indicated below.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about the actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The table below reflects the combined expenses of the Fund and the Capital Shares of the JPMorgan Liquid Assets Money Market Fund (the “Portfolio”), in which the Fund currently invests all of its assets.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

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

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your on-going 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.

Managers Money Market Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

May 31, 2007 (unaudited)


Managers Money Market Fund (the “Fund”) is a series of The Managers Funds (the “Trust”), an open-end management investment company, organized as a Massachusetts business trust, and registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Currently, the Trust is comprised of a number of investment series, (collectively the “Funds”).

The Fund invests all of its investable assets in the Capital Shares of the JPMorgan Liquid Assets Money Market Fund (the “Portfolio”), a separate registered open-end management investment company with substantially the same investment objective and policies as the Fund. The Portfolio is a series of the JPMorgan Trust II, a business trust organized under the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The investment manager of the Portfolio is JPMorgan Investment Advisors Inc. (“JPMIA”). The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolio.

 

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:

 

a. Valuation of Investments

The investment in the Portfolio is valued daily at its end of day net asset value per share. The Portfolio’s underlying investments are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value. The amortized cost method of valuation values a security at its cost at the time of purchase and therefore assumes a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instruments.

 

b. Security Transactions

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date (the date the order to buy or sell is executed). Securities gains and losses are calculated on a specifically identified cost basis. Interest income is determined on the basis of the coupon interest accrued using the interest method adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

 

c. Dividend Policy

Dividends declared by the Portfolio accrue daily and are paid monthly.

 

d. Investment Income and Expenses

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, the Fund receives its proportionate share of the dividends paid by such class, which takes into consideration the Fund’s proportionate share of net investment income and expenses of such class. Expenses incurred by the Trust, which cannot be directly attributed to the Fund are apportioned among the Fund and other affiliated funds based upon their relative average net assets or number of shareholders.

Table of Contents

Managers Money Market Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


 

The Fund has an “omnibus account” arrangement with JPMorgan Distribution Services, Inc, (“JPMDS”), the shareholder servicing agent of the Portfolio, whereby the Fund is credited with a factor of 0.05% of the average daily assets invested in the Portfolio. This credit serves to reduce expenses, including transfer agent and registration expenses, that would otherwise be charged to the Fund. For the six months ended May 31, 2007, transfer agent and registration expenses were reduced under this arrangement by $24,296.

 

e. Dividends and Distributions

Income dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, normally will be declared daily and paid on the third to the last business day of the month. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Permanent book and tax basis differences, if any, relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid-in capital.

 

f. Federal Taxes

The Fund intends to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and gains to its shareholders and to meet certain diversification and income requirements with respect to investment companies. Therefore, no provision for Federal income or excise tax is included in the accompanying financial statements. At May 31, 2007, the approximate cost for Federal income tax purposes is $107,877,525.

 

g. Capital Stock

The Trust’s Declaration of Trust authorizes for the issuance of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, without par value. The Fund records sales and repurchases of its capital stock on the trade date. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

At May 31, 2007, no shareholders held greater than 10% of the shares outstanding of the Fund.

 

2. Agreements and Transactions with Affiliates

The Trust has entered into an Administrative and Shareholder Servicing Agreement under which Managers Investment Group LLC (the “Administrator”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Affiliated Managers Group, Inc. (“AMG”), serves as the Fund’s administrator and is responsible for certain aspects of managing the Fund’s operations, including administration and shareholder services of the Fund. For these services, the Fund is required to pay the Administrator 0.15% of the Fund’s average daily net assets per annum. The Fund is distributed by Managers Distributors, Inc., (“MDI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Managers Investment Group LLC. Certain Trustees and Officers of the Fund are Officers and/or Directors of the Administrator, AMG and/or MDI.

The aggregate annual retainer paid to each Independent Trustee is $55,000, plus $4,000 or $2,000 for each regular or special meeting attended, respectively. The Trustees’ fees and expenses are allocated amongst all of the Funds for which Managers Investment Group LLC serves as the Administrator based on the relative net assets of such Funds. The Independent Chairman of the Trusts receives an additional payment of $10,000 per year and the Chairman of the Audit Committee receives an additional $2,000 per year.

3. Commitments and Contingencies

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

 

4. New Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has recently issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (the “Interpretation”) (“FIN 48”), which applies to all registered investment companies and clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions. The Interpretation is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. FIN 48 will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ended November 30, 2008. Based on analysis computed to date, management does not believe the adoption of FIN 48 will result in any material impact to the Fund’s financial statements.

In addition, in September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management does not believe the adoption of SFAS 157 will have any impact on the Fund’s financial statements.
