The primary causes were persistent erosion in profits expectations and a generally downbeat news flow, especially in the technology and telecommunications sectors which remained over-supplied with inventory. Price weakness continued in early September right up until the tragic terrorist attacks on the 11th. After a sharp but brief sell-off when the markets reopened on September 17th, equities bottomed on September 21st and through early December had recovered about 18% from the absolute low. In late November, a recession was declared to have begun in March. In the aftermath of September 11th, we urged an aggressive approach to stocks. Our rationale included the following reasons for more constructive near-term view: 1) Aggressive lowering of short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve (the "Fed") was potentially beneficial to the economy; 2) The Federal Government was also increasing fiscal stimulus to boost the economy; 3) Long-term interest rates had fallen to 40-year lows, making stocks more attractive; 4) Analysts' estimates for profits growth were finally beginning to approach realistic levels; 5) Investor psychology was very negative and it almost always pays to be optimistic when the consensus is gloomy; and finally 6) The bear market was eighteen months old, measured from March 2000, which was lengthy compared to an average bear market of about eleven months. In short, while there were plenty of reasons for concern, markets in the past have tended to overreact to crisis events. Generally such negative overreactions are the right time to lean the other way and become more positive in action. So far, this has played out in exactly the same fashion, with the best performing sectors off the September lows including economically sensitive Technology, Materials, Capital Goods and Consumer Discretionary stocks. On the other side of the ledger, defensive sectors such as Utilities and Energy have lagged. The market, having come a good ways in a hurry, may pause for breath, but overall it is on a typical track of recovering over 20% and several months in time before the end of a recession. Since we believe corporate profits will be on the upswing by Q2-2002, the market is performing its usual role of looking ahead to discount a better economy next year. Over the last six months, investors have experienced both good and bad returns depending on asset mix. The mixed results illustrate again the merits of following sound diversification particularly for conservative investors who wish to minimize volatility. For example, bonds did quite well June through November, with corporate bonds up 5.9% and Governments up 6.3%. Stock investors were less fortunate, with the Large Cap S&P 500 -8.7% for the six-month period. The S&P 400 Mid Cap Index declined 6.8% and the S&P 600 Small Cap Index fell 2.6% during this period. While large cap stocks began to do better after September 11th, traditionally small caps, and especially the growth sector of small cap, have done quite well after the end of recessions. In summary, it would be healthy for the stock market to take a pause. We are more price sensitive but the investing environment still looks quite positive for equities. We are a little more cautious on bonds, believing that eleven rate cuts by the Fed and a very steep yield curve have priced a lot of good news into bond prices. That said, corporate bonds and certain segments of the mortgage market still hold appeal due to the wide yield advantage over Treasury bonds. Thank you for your loyalty and confidence in the STI Classic Funds. Sincerely, /s/Douglas S. Phillips Douglas S.

THE ACCOMPANYING NOTES ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 15 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STI CLASSIC FUNDS NOVEMBER 30, 2001 1. Organization: The STI Classic Funds (the "Trust") was organized as a Massachusetts business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated January 15, 1992. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company with thirty-seven funds as of November 30, 2001: the Balanced Fund, the Capital Appreciation Fund, the Growth and Income Fund, the Information and Technology Fund (formerly the E-Commerce Opportunity Fund), the International Equity Fund, the International Equity Index Fund, the Life Vision Aggressive Growth Fund, the Life Vision Growth and Income Fund, the Life Vision Moderate Growth Fund, the Mid-Cap Equity Fund, the Mid Cap Value Equity Fund, the Small Cap Growth Stock Fund, the Small Cap Value Equity Fund, the Tax Sensitive Growth Stock Fund, the Value Income Stock Fund, the Vantage Fund, (collectively the "Equity Funds"), the Florida Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, the Georgia Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, the High Income Fund, the Investment Grade Bond Fund, the Investment Grade Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, the Limited-Term Federal Mortgage Securities Fund, the Maryland Municipal Bond Fund, the Short-Term Bond Fund, the Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities Fund, the Strategic Income Fund, the U.S. Government Securities Fund, the Virginia Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, the Virginia Municipal Bond Fund, (collectively the "Fixed Income Funds"), the Prime Quality Money Market Fund, the Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, the U.S. Government Securities Money Market Fund, the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, the Virginia Tax-Free Money Market Fund (collectively the "Retail Money Market Funds"), the Classic Institutional Cash Management Money Market Fund, the Classic Institutional U.S. Government Securities Money Market Fund and the Classic Institutional U.S. Treasury Securities Money Market Fund, (collectively the "Institutional Money Market Funds" or the "Funds"). The assets of each Fund are segregated, and a shareholder's interest is limited to the fund in which shares are held. Each Fund's prospectus provides a description of the Fund's investment objectives, policies and strategies. The financial statements presented herein are those of the Institutional Money Market Funds. The financial statements of the Equity Funds, the Fixed Income Funds and the Retail Money Market Funds are not presented herein, but are presented separately. 2. Significant Accounting Policies: The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust: SECURITY VALUATION -- Investment securities held by the Funds are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market value. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is each Fund's intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes and distribute all of its taxable income and net capital gains. Accordingly, no provisions for Federal income taxes are required. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Costs used in determining net realized gains and losses on the sales of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold adjusted for the accretion and amortization of purchase discounts and premiums during the respective holding period. Purchase discounts and premiums on securities held by the Funds are accreted and amortized ratably to maturity and are included in interest income. 16 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (UNAUDITED) REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the custodian bank until the respective agreements mature. Provisions of the repurchase agreements ensure that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default of the counterparty. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters into an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE -- The net asset value per share of each Fund is calculated each business day, by dividing the total value of each Fund's assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding. SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS -- Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by a Fund on a forward commitment or when-issued basis can take place up to a month or more after the transaction date. During this period, such securities are subject to market fluctuations and the portfolio maintains, in a segregated account with its custodian, assets with a market value equal to or greater than the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis may increase the volatility of a Fund's net asset value if the Fund makes such investments while remaining substantially fully vested. OTHER -- Expenses that are directly related to a specific Fund are charged to that Fund. Class specific expenses are borne by that class. Other operating expenses of the Trust are pro-rated to the Funds on the basis of relative net assets. Fund expenses are pro-rated to the respective classes on the basis of relative net assets. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions from net investment income of each of the Funds are declared on each business day and paid to shareholders on a monthly basis. Any net realized capital gains on sales of securities are distributed to shareholders at least annually. USE OF ESTIMATES-- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates. IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS -- The Funds implemented the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide, Audits of Investment Companies (the "Guide"), as required on June 1, 2001. The implementation did not have any material impact on the results of operations or financial condition of the Funds upon adoption of the provisions of the Guide. 3. Transactions with Affiliates: Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of SEIInvestments Mutual Funds Services ("the Administrator") and/or SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor"). Such officers are paid no fees by the Trust for serving as officers of the Trust. The Trust and the Distributor are parties to a Distribution Agreement dated November 21, 1995. The Distributor does not receive any fees for its distribution services provided under this agreement. 17 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (concluded) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STI CLASSIC FUNDS NOVEMBER 30, 2001 The Trust has entered into an agreement with the Distributor to act as an agent in placing repurchase agreements for the Trust. For its services the Distributor received $472,591 for the period ended November 30, 2001. The Trust has also entered into an agreement with SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, a division of SunTrust Capital Markets, Inc. which is a direct non-bank subsidiary of Sun Trust Banks, Inc. to act as an agent in placing repurchase agreements for the Trust. For its services SunTrust Robinson Humphrey received $550,684 for the period ended November 30, 2001. 4.
