It was a time of enormous upheaval and change. We understand and appreciate the challenges you have faced during this historic period, and share your concerns about the economy, the markets, and fund holdings. To help address these issues, I'd like to provide my perspective on how we have managed--and continue to manage--your investments in these uncertain times.

Our seasoned investment professionals have substantial experience and have successfully navigated previous market crises. These portfolio managers and analysts continue to use a team approach and follow disciplined investment processes designed to produce the best possible long-term results for you.

MARKET PERSPECTIVE [photo of Chief Investment Officer] By Phil Davidson, Chief Investment Officer, U.S. Value Equity FINANCIAL SYSTEM SHAKEN A series of startling events put downward pressure on the U.S. equity market during the six months ended September 30, 2008. The U.S. financial system remained mired in unprecedented credit-market turmoil, which intensified throughout the six-month period. The credit and liquidity stress reached critical mass in September, when the federal government's takeover of mortgage lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and its rescue of insurer AIG were followed by the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers and Bank of America's acquisition of troubled Merrill Lynch. A number of other major financial firms faced similar circumstances. Few investors anticipated the scope of the credit crunch, which has blossomed into a full-blown financial crisis. The adverse effects are being felt on a global scale--the U.S. economy is likely already facing a recession as job losses mount and consumer spending withers, and the malaise is quickly spreading throughout the rest of the world's economies. The U.S. government and the Federal Reserve have taken extraordinary steps to provide support for the flagging financial system, and other governments and central banks are expected to follow suit. In the stock market, volatility reached extreme levels on a day-to-day basis as investors lost confidence in the financial system and the ability of the government to remedy the situation. As a result, the major stock indexes slumped for the six-month period (see the accompanying table). VALUE OUTPERFORMED In this challenging environment, value stocks generally held up better than growth-oriented issues. Against a persistent backdrop of market uncertainty and heightened volatility, companies with attractive valuation characteristics became beacons for risk-averse investors. However, security selection took on greater importance as the market became rife with "value traps"--stocks that are inexpensive for good reason. Our value funds stand to benefit from an increased emphasis on selectivity, thanks to our risk-conscious focus on robust balance sheets, competitive strength, cash flows, and earnings power. We believe these characteristics are indicative of higher-quality companies that will successfully weather the current financial storm.

PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
Mid Cap Value

Portfolio Managers: Kevin Toney, Michael Liss, and Phil Davidson

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Mid Cap Value returned -1.39%* for the six months ended September 30, 2008. By
comparison, the median return for Morningstar's Mid Cap Value category (whose
performance, like Mid Cap Value's, reflects fund operating expenses) was
-9.48%.** The fund's benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index, returned
-7.46%. Its returns do not include operating expenses.

The volatile market environment described in the Market Perspective on page 2
hampered Mid Cap Value's absolute performance. However, on a relative basis,
the portfolio significantly outpaced the performance of its benchmark, the
Russell Midcap Value Index. Mid Cap Value outperformed because of effective
security selection and our continued emphasis on less-risky businesses with
sound balance sheets. The portfolio benefited most from its position in the
utilities, consumer staples, and materials sectors. Its mix of energy stocks
hindered relative performance. The portfolio's complement of international
holdings also restrained performance.

Since its inception on March 31, 2004, Mid Cap Value has produced an average
annual return of 7.97%, topping the returns for that period for Morningstar's
Mid Cap Value category median** and the Russell Midcap Value Index (see the
performance information on pages 3-4).

ALLOCATION TO UTILITIES WAS A PLUS

Mid Cap Value's position in utilities was the largest contributor to relative
performance. Because of valuations and higher-risk business models, we did not
hold any independent power producers, which declined 57% in the benchmark.
Investors appear to have connected these companies to both the credit crisis
and the sharp drop in energy prices in the closing months of the period.

Security selection, particularly among electric utilities, also boosted
results. A significant holding was Empire District Electric, which principally
provides electricity to customers in southwestern Missouri. By obtaining
regulatory approval to pass through most of its fuel and power costs to
ratepayers, Empire limited its exposure to rising commodity prices.

Mid Cap Value

CONSUMER STAPLES ADDED VALUE

The portfolio's mix of consumer staples companies--particularly its food and
household products holdings--added positively to performance against the
benchmark. A top contributor was personal-care and paper-product manufacturer,
Kimberly-Clark Corp., which benefited from cost cutting and price increases.
We believe the company's margins could improve if the cost of energy,
oil-based materials, and product distribution continue to decline.

The consumer staples sector was also the source of an international detractor,
Maple Leaf Foods. A leading food processor headquartered in Toronto, Canada,
Maple Leaf experienced a setback when many of its products were linked to a
harmful strain of listeria, a food-borne bacteria.

MATERIALS CONTRIBUTED

In materials, an overweight position and security selection added to results.
A top performer was Bemis Co., one of the portfolio's top holdings. Bemis, a
major producer of flexible packaging, primarily for the food industry,
reported improved sales volume and should benefit from lower resin input
costs. Another notable contributor was Rohm and Haas, a specialty chemical
company. Its stock rose on the news that it would be acquired at a substantial
premium by Dow Chemical.

ENERGY POSITION HAMPERED RESULTS

The portfolio's complement of energy stocks slowed relative performance. The
sector also provided a significant detractor, Equitable Resources, which is an
integrated energy company engaged in Appalachian-region natural gas
activities, including production, gathering and processing, distribution,
transmission, storage, and marketing. Despite its strong resource base,
Equitable's prospects dimmed as natural gas prices fell and its access to
capital was restricted by tight credit conditions, which may hinder its
ability to execute its growth plans.

OUTLOOK

We continue to follow our disciplined, bottom-up process, selecting companies
one at a time for the portfolio. We see opportunities in consumer staples,
utilities, materials, and industrials stocks, reflected by overweight
positions in these sectors, relative to the benchmark. Our fundamental
analysis and valuation work are also directing us toward smaller relative
weightings in financials, consumer discretionary, and energy stocks.

Small Cap Value returned -0.92%* for the six months ended September 30, 2008.
By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index, returned 1.24%.
The portfolio's returns reflect operating expenses while the index's returns
do not. The Lipper Small-Cap Value Funds Index, which includes operating
expenses, returned -4.07%.**

The volatile market environment described in the Market Perspective on page 2
hampered Small Company Value's performance on both an absolute and relative
basis. U.S. equity indices were almost universally down for the six months.
Nevertheless, we continued our emphasis on less-risky businesses with sound
balance sheets. Investments in the energy and financials sector slowed
relative progress. The portfolio's small complement of international holdings
also restrained performance. Contributing the most were holdings among health
care and information technology stocks.

Since Small Cap Value's inception on July 31, 1998, the portfolio has produced
an average annual return of 11.63%, outpacing the benchmark's return of 8.72%
and the 8.38% return of the Lipper Small-Cap Value Funds Index for the same
period (see performance information on pages 7-8).

ENERGY HAMPERED PROGRESS

The portfolio's overweight in the energy sector was a drag on results. As
energy prices declined during the third quarter, many of these names
underperformed. The energy equipment and services industry provided two
significant detractors: Global Industries Ltd., an offshore construction
company that builds pipelines and drilling platforms around the world; and
North American Energy Partners, based in Edmonton, Canada--a leading resource
provider to major oil and natural gas companies, with a primary focus on the
Canadian oil sands.

Global Industries reported a second-quarter loss after bad weather and
scheduling problems interrupted normal business operations. North American
Energy's margins were pressured during the period by production challenges on
a single mining project, as well as an intensifying level of competition in
the western Canadian oil sands region.

Small Cap Value

FINANCIALS DETRACTED

Small Cap Value's position in the financials sector slowed relative
performance. The portfolio was underweight commercial banks, which was one of
the top-performing industries in the benchmark. One of our holdings, MCG
Capital Corp. (MCG), was a key detractor. MCG, which provides capital to
finance activities such as acquisitions, recapitalizations, and buyouts,
declined on fears of credit losses, the need for additional capital, and the
company's announcement that it would pay no dividend in 2008.

HEALTH CARE ENHANCED RESULTS

Small Cap Value's position in the health care sector was the largest positive
contributor to relative performance. Our mix of pharmaceutical names was
particularly advantageous. A notable contributor was Sciele Pharma, an
Atlanta-based pharmaceutical company. Sciele's stock price rose on news that
the firm would be acquired at a significant premium by Japan's Shionogi & Co.,
which is seeking to expand its U.S. presence.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY CONTRIBUTED

Our mix of information technology names boosted the portfolio's results versus
the benchmark. A top contributor was Parametric Technology, a leader in
mechanical design automation. The company benefited from increased demand for
its software in Asia, a broader suite of products, and acquisitions that could
help it improve operating performance. In addition, Parametric is reportedly
approaching bidders in an attempt to sell itself.

OUTLOOK

We continue to be bottom-up investment managers, evaluating each company
individually and building the portfolio one stock at a time. In our search for
companies that are undervalued, we will structure exposure to market segments
based on the attractiveness of individual companies. The portfolio is broadly
diversified, with larger positions than the benchmark in energy, information
technology, and health care. Our fundamental analysis and valuation work is
also directing us toward a smaller relative weighting in financials stocks.

SHAREHOLDER FEE EXAMPLES (UNAUDITED)

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs,
including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange
fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and
service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to
help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund
and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual
funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the
period and held for the entire period from April 1, 2008 to September 30, 2008.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses
for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you
invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First,
identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading "Expenses Paid During
Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or
Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in
an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or
retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50
semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than
$10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay
the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will
include your investments in all PERSONAL ACCOUNTS (including American Century
Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number.
PERSONAL ACCOUNTS include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA
accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs
(including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and
certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business
retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage
accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. We will not charge the
fee as long as you choose to manage your accounts exclusively online. If you
are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be
reduced by the fee amount.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and
hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your
fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is
not the actual return of a fund's share class. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare
this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in
the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales
charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, 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.

in a series issued by the corporation. The funds are diversified under the
1940 Act. The funds' investment objective is to seek long-term capital growth.
The production of income is a secondary objective. Mid Cap Value pursues its
investment objective by investing in stocks of mid-sized market capitalization
companies that management believes to be undervalued at the time of purchase.
Small Cap Value pursues its investment objective by investing in stocks of
smaller market capitalization companies that management believes to be
undervalued at the time of purchase. The following is a summary of the funds'
significant accounting policies.

MULTIPLE CLASS -- Mid Cap Value is authorized to issue the Investor Class, the
Institutional Class, the Advisor Class and the R Class. Small Cap Value is
authorized to issue the Investor Class, the Institutional Class and the
Advisor Class. Prior to December 3, 2007, Small Cap Value was authorized to
issue the C Class (see Note 11). The share classes differ principally in their
respective distribution and shareholder servicing expenses and arrangements.
All shares of each fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets
of the class to which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend,
liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for
class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only
individual classes. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and
unrealized capital gains and losses of the funds are allocated to each class
of shares based on their relative net assets.

SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities traded primarily on a principal securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price, or at the mean of the
latest bid and asked prices where no last sales price is available. Depending
on local convention or regulation, securities traded over-the-counter are
valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price,
or the official close price. Debt securities not traded on a principal
securities exchange are valued through a commercial pricing service or at the
mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. Discount notes may be valued
through a commercial pricing service or at amortized cost, which approximates
fair value. Securities traded on foreign securities exchanges and
over-the-counter markets are normally completed before the close of business
on days that the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange) is open and may also
take place on days when the Exchange is not open. If an event occurs after the
value of a security was established but before the net asset value per share
was determined that was likely to materially change the net asset value, that
security would be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted
by the Board of Directors. If the funds determine that the market price of a
portfolio security is not readily available, or that the valuation methods
mentioned above do not reflect the security's fair value, such security is
valued as determined by the Board of Directors or its designee, in accordance
with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors, if such determination would
materially impact a fund's net asset value. Certain other circumstances may
cause the funds to use alternative procedures to value a security such as: a
security has been declared in default; trading in a security has been halted
during the trading day; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading
will commence.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- For financial reporting purposes, security
transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and
losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for
federal income tax purposes.

INVESTMENT INCOME -- Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is
recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that
represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of
cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The funds estimate the
components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable
distributions or capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts
and amortization of premiums.

SECURITIES ON LOAN -- The funds may lend portfolio securities through their
lending agent to certain approved borrowers in order to earn additional
income. The income earned, net of any rebates or fees, is included in the
Statement of Operations. The funds continue to recognize any gain or loss in
the market price of the securities loaned and record any interest earned or
dividends declared.

EXCHANGE TRADED FUNDS -- The funds may invest in exchange traded funds (ETFs).
ETFs are a type of index fund bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF
trades like common stock and represents a fixed portfolio of securities
designed to track the performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic
or foreign market index. A fund may purchase an ETF to temporarily gain
exposure to a portion of the U.S. or a foreign market while awaiting purchase
of underlying securities. The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the
risks of owning the underlying securities they are designed to track, although
the lack of liquidity on an ETF could result in it being more volatile.
Additionally, ETFs have management fees, which increase their cost.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS -- All assets and liabilities initially
expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at prevailing
exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities,
dividend and interest income, and certain expenses are translated at the rates
of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. For
assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, net realized and
unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency translations arise from
changes in currency exchange rates.

Net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses
occurring during the holding period of investment securities are a component
of realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments, respectively. Certain countries may impose
taxes on the contract amount of purchases and sales of foreign currency
contracts in their currency. The funds record the foreign tax expense, if any,
as a reduction to the net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency
transactions.

FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS -- The funds may enter into
forward foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions of
securities denominated in a foreign currency or to hedge the funds' exposure
to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The net U.S. dollar value of
foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by the funds and
the resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation are determined daily
using prevailing exchange rates. The funds bear the risk of an unfavorable
change in the foreign currency exchange rate underlying the forward contract.
Additionally, losses may arise if the counterparties do not perform under the
contract terms.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The funds may enter into repurchase agreements with
institutions that American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the
investment advisor) has determined are creditworthy pursuant to criteria
adopted by the Board of Directors. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at
cost. Each fund requires that the collateral, represented by securities,
received in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
manner sufficient to enable each fund to obtain those securities in the event
of a default under the repurchase agreement. ACIM monitors, on a daily basis,
the securities transferred to ensure the value, including accrued interest, of
the securities under each repurchase agreement is equal to or greater than
amounts owed to each fund under each repurchase agreement.

JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT -- Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, each fund, along with other registered
investment companies having management agreements with ACIM or American
Century Global Investment Management, Inc. (ACGIM), may transfer uninvested
cash balances into a joint trading account. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or
Agency obligations.

INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is each fund's policy to distribute substantially all
net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise
qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. The funds have adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Income Taxes" during
the current fiscal year. The funds are no longer subject to examination by tax
authorities for years prior to 2005. At this time, management has not
identified any uncertain tax positions for which it is reasonably possible
that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change
in the next twelve months. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal
or state income taxes. Interest and penalties associated with any federal or
state income tax obligations, if any, are recorded as interest expense.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net investment income are declared
and paid quarterly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are
generally declared and paid annually.

27


INDEMNIFICATIONS -- Under the corporation's organizational documents, its
officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out
of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal
course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general
indemnifications. The funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is
unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the
funds. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management
to be remote.

USE OF ESTIMATES -- The financial statements are prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
which may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the
date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

2. FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

MANAGEMENT FEES -- The corporation has entered into a Management Agreement
with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and
management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee)
per class. The Agreement provides that all expenses of the funds, except
brokerage commissions, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of those directors
who are not considered "interested persons" as defined in the 1940 Act
(including counsel fees) and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The
fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of each
specific class of shares of each fund and paid monthly in arrears. For funds
with a stepped fee schedule, the rate of the fee is determined by applying a
fee rate calculation formula. This formula takes into account all of the
investment advisor's assets under management in each fund's investment
strategy (strategy assets) to calculate the appropriate fee rate for each
fund. The strategy assets include each fund's assets and the assets of other
clients of the investment advisor that are not in the American Century
Investments family of funds, but that have the same investment team and
investment strategy. The annual management fee schedule for Mid Cap Value is
1.00%, 0.80%, 1.00% and 1.00% for the Investor Class, Institutional Class,
Advisor Class and R Class, respectively. The annual management fee schedule
for Small Cap Value ranges from 1.00% to 1.25% for the Investor Class and
Advisor Class. The Institutional Class is 0.20% less at each point within the
range for Small Cap Value.

The effective annual management fee for each class of each fund for the six
months ended September 30, 2008, was as follows:

                     Mid Cap Value        Small Cap Value

Investor                 1.00%                 1.25%

Institutional            0.80%                 1.05%

Advisor                  1.00%                 1.25%

R                        1.00%                  N/A

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES -- The Board of Directors has adopted a separate
Master Distribution and Individual Shareholder Services Plan for each of the
Advisor Class and R Class (collectively the plans), pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of
the 1940 Act. The plans provide that the Advisor Class will pay American
Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS) an annual distribution and service
fee of 0.25%. The plans provide that the R Class will pay ACIS an annual
distribution and service fee of 0.50%. The fees are computed and accrued daily
based on each class's daily net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fees
are used to pay financial intermediaries for distribution and individual
shareholder services. Fees incurred under the plans during the six months
ended September 30, 2008, are detailed in the Statement of Operations.

RELATED PARTIES -- Certain officers and directors of the corporation are also
officers and/or directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of
American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent of the corporation's
investment advisor, ACIM, the distributor of the corporation, ACIS, and the
corporation's transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC.

The funds are eligible to invest in a money market fund for temporary
purposes, which is managed by J.P. Morgan Investment Management, Inc. (JPMIM).
JPMIM is a wholly owned subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM). JPM is an
equity investor in ACC. The funds have a securities lending agreement with
JPMorgan Chase Bank (JPMCB). JPMCB is a custodian of the funds and a wholly
owned subsidiary of JPM.

5. SECURITIES LENDING

As of September 30, 2008, securities in Small Cap Value valued at $3,912,298,
were on loan through the lending agent, JPMCB, to certain approved borrowers.
As of September 30, 2008 Mid Cap Value did not have any securities on loan.
JPMCB receives and maintains collateral in the form of cash and/or acceptable
securities as approved by ACIM. Cash collateral is invested in authorized
investments by the lending agent in a pooled account. The value of cash
collateral received at period end is disclosed in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities and investments made with the cash by the lending agent are listed
in the Schedule of Investments. Any deficiencies or excess of collateral must
be delivered or transferred by the member firms no later than the close of
business on the next business day. The total market value of all collateral
received for Small Cap, at this date, was $4,158,654. The funds' risks in
securities lending are that the borrower may not provide additional collateral
when required or return the securities when due. If the borrower defaults,
receipt of the collateral by the funds may be delayed or limited.

6. AFFILIATED COMPANY TRANSACTIONS

If a fund's holding represents ownership of 5% or more of the voting
securities of a company, the company is affiliated as defined in the 1940 Act.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The funds' securities valuation process is based on several considerations and
may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the positions held by
the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are
classified into three broad levels as follows:

* Level 1 valuation inputs consist of actual quoted prices based on an active
market;

* Level 2 valuation inputs consist of significant direct or indirect
observable market data; or

* Level 3 valuation inputs consist of significant unobservable inputs such as
the fund's own assumptions.

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not an
indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other
financial instruments.

The following is a summary of the valuation inputs used to determine the fair
value of the funds' securities and other financial instruments as of September
30, 2008:

                                                                        Unrealized

8. BANK LINE OF CREDIT

The funds, along with certain other funds managed by ACIM or ACGIM, have a
$500,000,000 unsecured bank line of credit agreement with Bank of America,
N.A. The funds may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes to fund
shareholder redemptions. Borrowings under the agreement, which is subject to
annual renewal, bear interest at the Federal Funds rate plus 0.40%. The funds
did not borrow from the line during the six months ended September 30, 2008.

9. RISK FACTORS

Small Cap Value generally invests in smaller companies which may be more
volatile, and subject to greater short-term risk than those of larger
companies. In addition, Small Cap Value's performance may be affected by
investments in initial public offerings (IPOs). The impact of IPOs on a fund's
performance depends on the strength of the IPO market and the size of the
fund. IPOs may have less impact on a fund's performance as its assets grow.

10. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The book-basis 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. These differences reflect
the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and
losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in
reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of September 30, 2008, the components of investments for federal income tax
purposes were as follows:

                                           Mid Cap Value   Small Cap Value

Federal tax cost of investments             $340,543,145    $1,546,012,232
                                          ==============   ===============
Gross tax appreciation
of investments                               $ 9,561,700      $ 70,954,687

Gross tax depreciation
of investments                              (39,074,840)     (268,922,653)
                                          --------------   ---------------
Net tax appreciation (depreciation)
of investments                             $(29,513,140)    $(197,967,966)
                                          ==============   ===============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis cost and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales.

As of March 31, 2008, Mid Cap Value and Small Cap Value had capital loss
deferrals of $(27,987,975) and $(56,231,868), respectively, which represent
net capital losses incurred in the five-month period ended March 31, 2008. The
funds have elected to treat such losses as having been incurred in the
following fiscal year for federal income tax purposes.

11. CORPORATE EVENT

On July 27, 2007, the C Class shareholders of Small Cap Value approved a
reclassification of C Class shares into Advisor Class shares. The
reclassification was effective December 3, 2007. The change was approved by
the Board of Directors on November 29, 2006 and March 7, 2007.

12. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (FAS 157), in
September 2006, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value and expands the required financial statement disclosures about fair
value measurements. The adoption of FAS 157 does not materially impact the
determination of fair value.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (FAS 161). FAS 161 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161 amends and expands
disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. FAS 161
requires qualitative disclosures about the objectives and strategies of
derivative instruments, quantitative disclosures about the fair value amounts
of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures of
credit-risk-related contingent features in hedging activities. Management is
currently evaluating the impact that adopting FAS 161 will have on the
financial statement disclosures.

class expense differences because of the impact of calculating the net asset
values to two decimal places. If net asset values were calculated to three
decimal places, the total return differences would more closely reflect the
class expense differences. The calculation of net asset values to two decimal
places is made in accordance with SEC guidelines and does not result in any
gain or loss of value between one class and another.

values to two decimal places. If net asset values were calculated to three
decimal places, the total return differences would more closely reflect the

APPROVAL OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

Mid Cap Value and Small Cap Value

Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment
advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated and approved by a
majority of a fund's independent directors or trustees (the "Directors") each
year. At American Century, this process is referred to as the "15(c) Process."
As a part of this process, the board reviews fund performance, shareholder
services, audit and compliance information, and a variety of other reports
from the advisor concerning fund operations. In addition to this annual
review, the board of directors oversees and evaluates on a continuous basis at
its quarterly meetings the nature and quality of significant services
performed by the advisor, fund performance, audit and compliance information,
and a variety of other reports relating to fund operations. The board, or
committees of the board, also holds special meetings as needed.

Under a Securities and Exchange Commission rule, each fund is required to
disclose in its annual or semiannual report, as appropriate, the material
factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the board's approval or
renewal of any advisory agreements within the fund's most recently completed
fiscal half-year period.

ANNUAL CONTRACT REVIEW PROCESS

As part of the annual 15(c) Process undertaken during the most recent fiscal
half-year period, the Directors reviewed extensive data and information
compiled by the advisor and certain independent providers of evaluative data
(the "15(c) Providers") concerning Mid Cap Value and Small Cap Value (the
"funds") and the services provided to the funds under the management
agreement. The information considered and the discussions held at the meetings
included, but were not limited to:

* the nature, extent and quality of investment management, shareholder
services and other services provided to the funds;

* reports on the wide range of programs and services the advisor provides to
the funds and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;

* information about the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory
experience of the advisor;

* data comparing the cost of owning the funds to the cost of owning similar
funds;

* data comparing the funds' performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a
peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and
strategies;

* financial data showing the profitability of the funds to the advisor and the
overall profitability of the advisor; and

* data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management
clients of the advisor.

In keeping with its practice, the funds' board of directors held two in-person
meetings and one telephonic meeting to review and discuss the information
provided. The board also had the benefit of the advice of its independent
counsel throughout the period.

FACTORS CONSIDERED

The Directors considered all of the information provided by the advisor, the
15(c) Providers, and the board's independent counsel, and evaluated such
information for each fund for which the board has responsibility. In
connection with their review of the fund, the Directors did not identify any
single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Director may
have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In
deciding to renew the management agreement under the terms ultimately
determined by the board to be appropriate, the Directors' decision was based
on the following factors.

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES - GENERALLY. Under the management
agreement, the advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all
services necessary for the operation of the funds. The board noted that under
the management agreement, the advisor provides or arranges at its own expense
a wide variety of services including:

* fund construction and design

* portfolio security selection

* initial capitalization/funding

* securities trading

* custody of fund assets

* daily valuation of the funds' portfolio

* shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder
confirmations, recordkeeping and communications

* legal services

* regulatory and portfolio compliance

* financial reporting

* marketing and distribution

The Directors noted that many of the services provided by the advisor have
expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to
shareholder demands, competition in the industry and the changing regulatory
environment. In performing their evaluation, the Directors considered
information received in connection with the annual review, as well as
information provided on an ongoing basis at their regularly scheduled board
and committee meetings.


------
41


INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The nature of the investment management
services provided to the funds is quite complex and allows fund shareholders
access to professional money management, instant diversification of their
investments and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the board
expects the advisor to manage the funds in accordance with its investment
objectives and approved strategies. In providing these services, the advisor
utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts,
research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information
technology, research, training, compliance and other systems to conduct their
business. At each quarterly meeting the Directors review investment
performance information for the funds, together with comparative information
for appropriate benchmarks and peer groups of funds managed similarly to the
funds. The Directors also review detailed performance information during the
15(c) Process comparing the funds' performance with that of similar funds not
managed by the advisor. If performance concerns are identified, the Directors
discuss with the advisor the reasons for such results (e.g., market
conditions, security selection) and any efforts being undertaken to improve
performance. Small Cap Value's performance for both the one- and three-year
periods was above the median for its peer group. Mid Cap Value's performance
was above the median for its peer group for the three-year period and below
the median for the one-year period.

SHAREHOLDER AND OTHER SERVICES. The advisor provides the funds with a
comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The
Directors review reports and evaluations of such services at their regular
quarterly meetings, including the annual meeting concerning contract review,
and reports to the board. These reports include, but are not limited to,
information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the
shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels,
shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal
sources), technology support, new products and services offered to fund
shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services,
auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. Certain
aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the
quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third
party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not
managed by the advisor.

COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED AND PROFITABILITY. The advisor provides detailed
information concerning its cost of providing various services to the funds,
its profitability in managing the funds, its overall profitability, and its
financial condition. The Directors have reviewed with the advisor the
methodology used to prepare this financial information. This financial
information regarding the advisor is considered in order to evaluate the
advisor's financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services
under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current
management fee. The board concluded that the advisor's profits were reasonable
in light of the services provided to the funds.

ETHICS. The Directors generally consider the advisor's commitment to providing
quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically.
They noted that the advisor's practices generally meet or exceed industry best
practices.


------
42


ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Directors review reports provided by the advisor on
economies of scale for the complex as a whole and the year-over-year changes
in revenue, costs, and profitability. The Directors concluded that economies
of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a
fund-by-fund basis. This analysis is also complicated by the additional
services and content provided by the advisor and its reinvestment in its
ability to provide and expand those services. Accordingly, the Directors also
seek to evaluate economies of scale by reviewing other information, such as
year-over-year profitability of the advisor generally, the profitability of
its management of the funds specifically, the expenses incurred by the advisor
in providing various functions to the funds, and the fees of competitive funds
not managed by the advisor. The Directors believe the advisor is appropriately
sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, fee
breakpoints as the funds increase in size, and through reinvestment in its
business to provide shareholders additional content and services.

COMPARISON TO OTHER FUNDS' FEES. The funds pay the advisor a single,
all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary
for the management and operation of the funds, other than brokerage expenses,
taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and the fees and expenses of the
funds' independent directors (including their independent legal counsel).
Under the unified fee structure, the advisor is responsible for providing all
investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance,
recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and
supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other
funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a
transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges and other
expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and Rule 12b-1
distribution fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these
other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The board believes
the unified fee structure is a benefit to fund shareholders because it clearly
discloses to shareholders the cost of owning fund shares, and, since the
unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of fund shareholders, it shifts
to the advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the fund and provides
a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the
Directors' analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data
compiled by a 15(c) Provider comparing the fund's unified fee to the total
expense ratio of other funds in the fund's peer group. The unified fee charged
to shareholders of Small Cap Value was at the median of the total expense
ratios of its peer group. The unified fee charged to shareholders of Mid Cap
Value was below the median of the total expense ratios of its peer group. The
board concluded that the management fee paid by each fund to the advisor was
reasonable in light of the services provided to the fund.

COMPARISON TO FEES AND SERVICES PROVIDED TO OTHER CLIENTS OF THE ADVISOR. The
Directors also requested and received information from the advisor concerning
the nature of the services, fees, and profitability of its advisory services
to advisory clients other than the funds. They observed that these varying
types of client accounts require different services and involve different
regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the funds. The
Directors analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and
services provided to the funds were reasonable by comparison.


------
43


COLLATERAL BENEFITS DERIVED BY THE ADVISOR. The Directors reviewed information
from the advisor concerning collateral benefits it receives as a result of its
relationship with the funds. They concluded that the advisor's primary
business is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use the fund or
shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and
therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The
Directors noted that the advisor receives proprietary research from
broker-dealers that execute fund portfolio transactions and concluded that
this research is likely to benefit fund shareholders. The Directors also
determined that the advisor is able to provide investment management services
to certain clients other than the funds, at least in part, due to its existing
infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Directors concluded,
however, that the assets of those other clients are not material to the
analysis and, in any event, are included with the assets of the fund to
determine breakpoints in the funds' fee schedule, provided they are managed
using the same investment team and strategy.

CONCLUSIONS OF THE DIRECTORS

As a result of this process, the board, including all of the independent
directors, in the absence of particular circumstances and assisted by the
advice of legal counsel that is independent of the advisor, taking into
account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the
advisor concluded that the investment management agreement between the funds
and the advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and
should be renewed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

RETIREMENT ACCOUNT INFORMATION

As required by law, any distributions you receive from an IRA or certain
403(b), 457 and qualified plans [those not eligible for rollover to an IRA or
to another qualified plan] are subject to federal income tax withholding,
unless you elect not to have withholding apply. Tax will be withheld on the
total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not
subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case,
excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding
election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.

If you don't want us to withhold on this amount, you must notify us to not
withhold the federal income tax. Even if you plan to roll over the amount you
withdraw to another tax-deferred account, the withholding rate still applies
to the withdrawn amount unless we have received notice not to withhold federal
income tax prior to the withdrawal. You may notify us in writing or in certain
situations by telephone or through other electronic means. You have the right
to revoke your withholding election at any time and any election you make may
remain in effect until revoked by filing a new election.

Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable
for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect
not to have income tax withheld or you don't have enough income tax withheld,
you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties
under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments
are not sufficient.

State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address
is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income
tax withheld. State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in
accordance with the respective state rules.

[front cover] SEMIANNUAL REPORT SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 [american century investments logo and text logo ®] AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS EQUITY INCOME FUND VALUE FUND LARGE COMPANY VALUE FUND PRESIDENT'S LETTER [photo of Jonathan Thomas] JONATHAN THOMAS Dear Investor: Thank you for taking time to review the following discussions, from our experienced portfolio management team, of the fund reporting period ended September 30, 2008. It was a time of enormous upheaval and change. We understand and appreciate the challenges you have faced during this historic period, and share your concerns about the economy, the markets, and fund holdings. To help address these issues, I'd like to provide my perspective on how we have managed--and continue to manage--your investments in these uncertain times. As a company, American Century Investments® is well positioned to deal with market turmoil. We are financially strong and privately held, which allows us to align our resources with your long-term investment interests. In addition, our actively managed, team-based approach allows our portfolio teams to identify attractive investment opportunities regardless of market conditions. Our seasoned investment professionals have substantial experience and have successfully navigated previous market crises. These portfolio managers and analysts continue to use a team approach and follow disciplined investment processes designed to produce the best possible long-term results for you.

We've stayed true to our principles, especially our belief that your success is the ultimate measure of our success. Thank you for your continued confidence in us.

MARKET PERSPECTIVE [photo of chief investment officer] By Phil Davidson, Chief Investment Officer, U.S. Value Equity FINANCIAL SYSTEM SHAKEN A series of startling events put downward pressure on the U.S. equity market during the six months ended September 30, 2008. The U.S. financial system remained mired in unprecedented credit-market turmoil, which intensified throughout the six-month period. The credit and liquidity stress reached critical mass in September, when the federal government's takeover of mortgage lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and its rescue of insurer AIG were followed by the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers and Bank of America's acquisition of troubled Merrill Lynch. A number of other major financial firms faced similar circumstances. Few investors anticipated the scope of the credit crunch, which has blossomed into a full-blown financial crisis. The adverse effects are being felt on a global scale--the U.S. economy is likely already facing a recession as job losses mount and consumer spending withers, and the malaise is quickly spreading throughout the rest of the world's economies. The U.S. government and the Federal Reserve have taken extraordinary steps to provide support for the flagging financial system, and other governments and central banks are expected to follow suit. In the stock market, volatility reached extreme levels on a day-to-day basis as investors lost confidence in the financial system and the ability of the government to remedy the situation. As a result, the major stock indexes slumped for the six-month period (see the accompanying table). VALUE OUTPERFORMED In this challenging environment, value stocks generally held up better than growth-oriented issues. Against a persistent backdrop of market uncertainty and heightened volatility, companies with attractive valuation characteristics became beacons for risk-averse investors. However, security selection took on greater importance as the market became rife with "value traps"--stocks that are inexpensive for good reason. Our value funds stand to benefit from an increased emphasis on selectivity, thanks to our risk-conscious focus on robust balance sheets, competitive strength, cash flows, and earnings power. We believe these characteristics are indicative of higher-quality companies that will successfully weather the current financial storm.

PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
Equity Income

Portfolio Managers: Phil Davidson, Kevin Toney, and Michael Liss

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Equity Income returned -4.27%* for the six months ended September 30, 2008.
By comparison, the Lipper Equity Income Index returned -11.30%, and the
median return for Morningstar's Large Cap Value category** (whose
performance, like Equity Income's, reflects fund operating expenses) was
-11.23%. Two market indices--the Russell 3000 Value Index and the S&P 500
Index--returned -10.16% and -10.87%, respectively. The portfolio's return
reflects operating expenses, while the indices' returns do not.

The volatile market environment described in the Market Perspective on page 2
hampered Equity Income's absolute performance. However, on a relative basis,
the portfolio significantly outpaced the performance of its benchmark, the
Russell 3000 Value Index. The key to our results was our continued focus on
higher-quality businesses with sound balance sheets. Performance benefited
most from strong security selection across financials, consumer staples, and
utilities. Conversely, Equity Income's mix of industrials and energy stocks
was a drag on results. The portfolio's complement of international holdings
also restrained performance.

Since its inception on August 1, 1994, Equity Income has produced an average
annual return of 11.54%, topping the returns for the Lipper Equity Income
Index, Morningstar's Large Cap Value category median,** the Russell 3000 Value
Index, and the S&P 500 for the same period (see performance information on
pages 3-4).

FINANCIALS POSITION BOOSTED RESULTS

Strong security selection and an underweight in financials added to relative
performance. We avoided several headline names, including insurance company
American International Group; bank holding company Wachovia Corp.; savings and
loan company Washington Mutual; and government-sponsored mortgage lenders
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

The sector provided two significant contributors--leading insurance broker
Marsh & McLennan, and bank holding company People's United Financial, Inc.
Marsh continued to show performance within its key insurance brokerage
segment. People's United Financial has steered clear of subprime loans and is
using its strong, well-capitalized balance sheet to make acquisitions.

Financials was also the source of a top detractor, AllianceBernstein Holding
LP. The asset manager experienced weak investment performance, compounding a
decline in assets under management which accompanied the downturn in the
financial markets.

Equity Income

CONSUMER STAPLES, UTILITIES ENHANCED PERFORMANCE

In consumer staples, our holdings among large packaged-food companies
contributed to relative results. A key holding was Campbell Soup, a leading
producer of soups, simple meals, baked goods, and healthy beverages. Campbell
has benefited from new products and improved pricing.

Strong security selection in utilities added value. Although electric and gas
utilities were down for the benchmark, we owned two top performers--Southern
Co., an electric utility serving primarily the southeast, and Nicor, a gas
distribution company that serves northern Illinois and the Chicago suburbs.

ACQUISITIONS ADDED VALUE

Merger and acquisition activity during the period was also beneficial. We
owned specialty chemical company Rohm and Haas, which announced it would be
bought at a substantial premium by Dow Chemical. UST, the leading producer of
smokeless tobacco products, reported a pending acquisition by Altria Group,
owner of Philip Morris USA.

INDUSTRIALS DETRACTED

Investments in the industrials sector slowed relative performance. A leading
detractor was General Electric, which comprised approximately 4% of the
benchmark. The company's shares suffered in sympathy with the overall decline
in financials due to concern about its financial unit, GE Capital.

ENERGY HAMPERED PROGRESS

In energy, we concentrated our investments in international integrated energy
companies, which we considered more attractively valued than their domestic
competitors. Two of these holdings--Total SA, a French oil and gas company,
and BP Plc., an oil and gas holding company based in the United
Kingdom--detracted as a slowing global economy weighed on their share prices.

OUTLOOK

We will continue to follow our disciplined, bottom-up investment process,
selecting companies one at a time for the portfolio. We see attractive
opportunities in information technology, utilities, and health care, reflected
by overweight positions in these sectors. We continue to be selective in
holdings of consumer discretionary companies and industrials, relying on
fundamental analysis to identify strong, financially-sound businesses whose
securities provide attractive yields.

PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
Value

Portfolio Managers: Michael Liss, Kevin Toney, and Phil Davidson

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Value returned -6.01%* for the six months ended September 30, 2008. By
comparison, the Lipper Multi-Cap Value Index returned -11.87%, while the
median return for Morningstar's Large Cap Value category** (whose performance,
like Value's, reflects fund operating expenses) was -11.23%. Two market
indices--the Russell 3000 Value Index and the S&P 500 Index--returned -10.16%
and -10.87%, respectively. (The portfolio's returns reflect operating
expenses, while the indices' returns do not.)

The volatile market environment described in the Market Perspective on page 2
hampered Value's absolute performance. However, on a relative basis, the
portfolio significantly outpaced the performance of its benchmark, the Russell
3000 Value Index. Value outperformed due to effective security selection and a
continued emphasis on less-risky businesses with sound balance sheets. The
portfolio benefited most from its position in the consumer staples, materials,
and health care sectors. An underweight position in energy stocks hindered
relative performance. The portfolio's complement of international holdings
also restrained performance.

Since Value's inception on September 1, 1993, the portfolio has produced an
average annual return of 9.89%, topping the returns for that period for the
Lipper Multi-Cap Value Index, Morningstar's Large Cap Value category median,**
the Russell 3000 Value Index, and the S&P 500 (see the performance information
on pages 7-8).

CONSUMER STAPLES BOOSTED PERFORMANCE

An overweight and effective security selection in consumer
staples--particularly among food and household products names--contributed
positively to relative performance. Our valuation work uncovered a number of
attractively priced businesses--industry leaders with high and sustainable
market-share positions, solid returns on capital, and good financial strength.
Two top holdings were significant relative contributors. Kraft Foods, the
largest branded food company in the U.S., has put more resources behind fewer
brands and is pushing more of its products into China, Russia, and Brazil.
Kimberly-Clark Corp., one of the largest makers of personal-care and paper
products, benefited from ongoing cost cutting and price increases. Its share
price rose on anticipation of lower prices for oil, natural gas, and pulp,
helping its profit margins.

MATERIALS, HEALTH CARE CONTRIBUTED

containers and packaging segment, effective security selection added to
results. A top contributor was Bemis Co., one of Value's largest holdings.
Bemis, a major producer of flexible packaging, primarily for the food
industry, reported an increase in profits from the sale of its flexible and
dry-food packaging products.

Value held no metals and mining company stocks, which enhanced its progress
versus the benchmark. For some time, we have had limited exposure to this
segment because we believe earnings are at peak levels and unsustainable. This
proved advantageous as falling commodity prices put pressure on earnings.

In the health care sector, Value benefited from its mix of stocks in the
pharmaceutical and health care equipment industries. One key holding was
Beckman Coulter. The manufacturer of diagnostic testing instruments and
consumables reported increased revenue on sales of clinical diagnostic
equipment.

ENERGY DETRACTED

The energy sector was the source of two top detractors--French oil company,
Total SA and Equitable Resources, a natural gas company involved in both
exploration and production, primarily in the Appalachian region. Total's share
price declined, partly on fears that a global recession would end high oil
prices. Despite its strong resource base, Equitable's prospects dimmed as
natural gas prices fell and its access to capital was restricted by tight
credit conditions, which hindered its ability to execute its growth plans.

OUTLOOK

We will continue to follow our disciplined, bottom-up process, selecting
securities one at a time for the portfolio. We see opportunities in consumer
staples, industrials, and information technology companies, reflected by
overweight positions in these sectors relative to the benchmark. Our
fundamental analysis and valuation work are also directing us toward relative
underweights in financials and energy stocks.

PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
Large Company Value

Portfolio Managers: Chuck Ritter and Brendan Healy

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Large Company Value returned -12.58%* for the six months ended September 30,
2008. By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned
-11.10%. The broader market, as measured by the S&P 500, returned -10.87%.
The portfolio's return reflects operating expenses, while the indices'
returns do not. The median return for Morningstar's Large Cap Value category
(whose performance, like Large Company Value's, reflects operating expenses)
was -11.23%.**

The volatile market environment described in the Market Perspective on page 2
hampered Large Company Value's absolute and relative performance. U.S. equity
indices were almost universally down for the six months. Value outperformed
growth--except among mega-cap stocks (shares of especially large companies,
represented by the Russell Top 200 Index). Large Company Value was slowed by
its position in the financials sector and holdings among utilities and
consumer discretionary stocks. On the positive side, the portfolio benefited
from strong security selection in the information technology, health care, and
consumer staples sectors.

Since Large Company Value's inception on July 30, 1999, the portfolio has
produced an average annual return of 3.65%, topping the returns for
Morningstar's Large Cap Value category median,** the Russell 1000 Value Index,
and the S&P 500 for that period (see performance information on pages 11-12).

FINANCIALS HINDERED PROGRESS

Even an underweight in financials--the portfolio's largest source of relative
underperformance--was insufficient to protect Large Company Value from the
turmoil in the sector. Although we continue to be selective about portfolio
holdings, our complement of insurance stocks hampered results. A top detractor
was American International Group (AIG), the leading U.S.-based international
insurer. AIG's shares fell significantly after the Federal Reserve stepped in
to rescue the company from bankruptcy. We eliminated the position during the
reporting period.

Also slowing progress was a significant underweight in real estate investment
trusts (REITS), which boosted returns for the benchmark. We continued to limit
exposure to this segment because we believe REITS are overvalued relative to
their fundamentals.

Large Company Value

UTILITIES, CONSUMER DISCRETIONARY DETRACTED

The portfolio's mix of electric utilities was a drag on relative performance.
A key detractor was Exelon, the nation's largest nuclear generator, which saw
its cost advantage over carbon-based generators decline as oil and gas prices
fell.

In consumer discretionary stocks, our holdings in the media industry hampered
performance. The sector provided two key detractors--entertainment giant
Viacom, and newspaper publisher Gannett Co. Both companies have been hurt by a
significant drop-off in advertising revenue.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY CONTRIBUTED

On the positive side, the portfolio benefited most from strong security
selection in the information technology sector, with most of the gains coming
from large leading software and technology companies. A significant holding
was computer and peripheral maker Hewlett-Packard. Its acquisition of
outsourcing giant Electronic Data Systems appears to offer a competitive
advantage and could add value through reorganization and cost-cutting efforts.
High-tech giant International Business Machines (IBM) reported strong earnings
from growth in its software and services divisions.

HEALTH CARE, CONSUMER STAPLES ADDED VALUE

Large Company Value's position in health care and consumer staples contributed
to results. During difficult economic times or periods of stock market
turbulence, investors often regard consumer staples and health care stocks as
lower-risk, defensive investments. Moreover, our preference for large industry
leaders proved advantageous as many of these names outperformed.

In health care, a key holding was Abbott Laboratories, which develops and
manufactures laboratory diagnostics, medical devices and pharmaceutical
therapies. Abbott reported strong sales across its entire product line,
including Humira (a drug that treats autoimmune diseases). In consumer
staples, a significant contributor was Wal-Mart Stores. The slowing economy
has put pressure on consumers, making the retailer's low-price strategy
particularly appealing.

OUTLOOK

We continue to be bottom-up investment managers, evaluating each company
individually and building the portfolio one stock at a time. Large Company
Value is broadly diversified, with ongoing overweight positions in the
information technology, energy, and industrials sectors. Our valuation work is
also directing us toward smaller relative weightings in financials and
utilities stocks. We are still finding greater value opportunities among
mega-cap stocks and have maintained our bias toward these firms.

SHAREHOLDER FEE EXAMPLES (UNAUDITED)

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs,
including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange
fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and
service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to
help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund
and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual
funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the
period and held for the entire period from April 1, 2008 to September 30, 2008.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses
for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you
invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First,
identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading "Expenses Paid During
Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or
Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in
an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or
retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50
semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than
$10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay
the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will
include your investments in all PERSONAL ACCOUNTS (including American Century
Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number.
PERSONAL ACCOUNTS include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA
accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs
(including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and
certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business
retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage
accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. We will not charge the
fee as long as you choose to manage your accounts exclusively online. If you
are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be
reduced by the fee amount.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and
hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your
fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is
not the actual return of a fund's share class. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare
this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in
the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales
charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION -- American Century Capital Portfolios, Inc. (the corporation) is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an
open-end management investment company. Equity Income Fund (Equity Income),
Value Fund (Value) and Large Company Value Fund (Large Company Value)
(collectively, the funds) are three funds in a series issued by the
corporation. The funds are diversified under the 1940 Act. Equity Income's
investment objective is to seek current income; capital appreciation is a
secondary objective. Equity Income pursues its investment objective by
investing in securities of companies with a favorable income-paying history
that have prospects for income payments to continue or increase. Value and
Large Company Value's investment objective is to seek long-term capital
growth; income is a secondary objective. Value and Large Company Value pursue
their investment objective by investing in stocks of companies that management
believes to be undervalued at the time of purchase. Value invests in companies
with small, medium, and large market capitalization and Large Company Value
invests in companies with larger market capitalization. The following is a
summary of the funds' significant accounting policies.

MULTIPLE CLASS -- The funds are authorized to issue the Investor Class, the
Institutional Class, the A Class (formerly Advisor Class), the B Class, the C
Class and the R Class. The A Class may incur an initial sales charge. The A
Class, B Class and C Class may be subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge. The share classes differ principally in their respective sales charges
and distribution and shareholder servicing expenses and arrangements. All
shares of each fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets of
the class to which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend,
liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for
class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only
individual classes. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and
unrealized capital gains and losses of the funds are allocated to each class
of shares based on their relative net assets. Sale of Equity Income's B Class
commenced on September 28, 2007.

SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities traded primarily on a principal securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price, or at the mean of the
latest bid and asked prices where no last sales price is available. Depending
on local convention or regulation, securities traded over-the-counter are
valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price,
or the official close price. Debt securities not traded on a principal
securities exchange are valued through a commercial pricing service or at the
mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. Discount notes may be valued
through a commercial pricing service or at amortized cost, which approximates
fair value. Securities traded on foreign securities exchanges and
over-the-counter markets are normally completed before the close of business
on days that the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange) is open and may also
take place on days when the Exchange is not open. If an event occurs after the
value of a security was established but before the net asset value per share
was determined that was likely to materially change the net asset value, that
security would be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted
by the Board of Directors. If the funds determine that the market price of a
portfolio security is not readily available, or that the valuation methods
mentioned above do not reflect the security's fair value, such security is
valued as determined by the Board of Directors or its designee, in accordance
with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors, if such determination would
materially impact a fund's net asset value. Certain other circumstances may
cause the funds to use alternative procedures to value a security such as: a
security has been declared in default; trading in a security has been halted
during the trading day; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading
will commence.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- For financial reporting purposes, security
transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and
losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for
federal income tax purposes.

INVESTMENT INCOME -- Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is
recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that
represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of
cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The funds estimate the
components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable
distributions or capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts
and amortization of premiums.


------
32


SECURITIES ON LOAN -- The funds may lend portfolio securities through their
lending agent to certain approved borrowers in order to earn additional
income. The income earned, net of any rebates or fees, is included in the
Statement of Operations. The funds continue to recognize any gain or loss in
the market price of the securities loaned and record any interest earned or
dividends declared.

FUTURES AND OPTIONS CONTRACTS -- The funds may enter into futures contracts
and purchase put options in order to manage the funds' exposure to changes in
market conditions. One of the risks of entering into futures contracts and
options is the possibility that the change in value of the contract may not
correlate with the changes in value of the underlying securities. Options
purchased by the funds are accounted for in the same manner as marketable
portfolio securities. The proceeds from securities sold through the exercise
of put options are decreased by the premium paid to purchase the put options.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the funds are required to deposit
either cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the
contract value (initial margin). Subsequent payments (variation margin) are
made or received daily, in cash, by the funds. The variation margin is equal
to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized gains
and losses. The funds recognize a realized gain or loss when the contract is
closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring
during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of realized
gain (loss) on investment transactions and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments, respectively.

EQUITY-LINKED DEBT AND LINKED-EQUITY SECURITIES -- The funds may invest in
hybrid equity securities, which usually convert into common stock at a date
predetermined by the issuer. These securities generally offer a higher
dividend yield than that of the common stock to which the security is linked.
These instruments are issued by a company other than the one to which the
security is linked and carry the credit of the issuer, not that of the
underlying common stock. The securities' appreciation is limited based on a
predetermined final cap price at the date of the conversion. Risks of
investing in these securities include, but are not limited to, a set time to
capture the yield advantage, limited appreciation potential, decline in value
of the underlying stock, and failure of the issuer to pay dividends or to
deliver common stock at maturity.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS -- All assets and liabilities initially
expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at prevailing
exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities,
dividend and interest income, and certain expenses are translated at the rates
of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. For
assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, net realized and
unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency translations arise from
changes in currency exchange rates.

Net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses
occurring during the holding period of investment securities are a component
of realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments, respectively. Certain countries may impose
taxes on the contract amount of purchases and sales of foreign currency
contracts in their currency. The funds record the foreign tax expense, if any,
as a reduction to the net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency
transactions.

FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS -- The funds may enter into
forward foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions of
securities denominated in a foreign currency or to hedge the funds' exposure
to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The net U.S. dollar value of
foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by the funds and
the resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation are determined daily
using prevailing exchange rates. The funds bear the risk of an unfavorable
change in the foreign currency exchange rate underlying the forward contract.
Additionally, losses may arise if the counterparties do not perform under the
contract terms.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The funds may enter into repurchase agreements with
institutions that American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the
investment advisor) has determined are creditworthy pursuant to criteria
adopted by the Board of Directors. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at
cost. Each fund requires that the collateral, represented by securities,
received in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
manner sufficient to enable each fund to obtain those securities in the event
of a default under the repurchase agreement. ACIM monitors, on a daily basis,
the securities transferred to ensure the value, including accrued interest, of
the securities under each repurchase agreement is equal to or greater than
amounts owed to each fund under each repurchase agreement.


------
33


JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT -- Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, each fund, along with other registered
investment companies having management agreements with ACIM or American
Century Global Investment Management, Inc. (ACGIM), may transfer uninvested
cash balances into a joint trading account. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or
Agency obligations.

INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is each fund's policy to distribute substantially all
net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise
qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. The funds have adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Income Taxes" during
the current fiscal year. The funds are no longer subject to examination by tax
authorities for years prior to 2005. At this time, management believes there
are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would
not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that
the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in
the next twelve months. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or
state income taxes. Interest and penalties associated with any federal or
state income tax obligations, if any, are recorded as interest expense.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net investment income are declared
and paid quarterly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are
generally declared and paid annually.

INDEMNIFICATIONS -- Under the corporation's organizational documents, its
officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out
of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal
course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general
indemnifications. The funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is
unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the
funds. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management
to be remote.

USE OF ESTIMATES -- The financial statements are prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
which may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the
date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

2. FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

MANAGEMENT FEES -- The corporation has entered into a Management Agreement
with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and
management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee)
per class. The Agreement provides that all expenses of the funds, except
brokerage commissions, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of those directors
who are not considered "interested persons" as defined in the 1940 Act
(including counsel fees) and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The
fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of each
specific class of shares of each fund and paid monthly in arrears. For funds
with a stepped fee schedule, the rate of the fee is determined by applying a
fee rate calculation formula. This formula takes into account all of the
investment advisor's assets under management in each fund's investment
strategy (strategy assets) to calculate the appropriate fee rate for each
fund. The strategy assets include each fund's assets and the assets of other
clients of the investment advisor that are not in the American Century
Investments family of funds, but that have the same investment team and
investment strategy. The annual management fee schedule for Equity Income
ranges from 0.80% to 1.00% for the Investor Class, A Class, B Class, C Class
and R Class. The annual management fee schedule for Value ranges from 0.85% to
1.00% for the Investor Class, A Class, B Class, C Class and R Class. The
annual management fee schedule for Large Company Value ranges from 0.70% to
0.90% for the Investor Class, A Class, B Class, C Class and R Class. The
Institutional Class of each fund is 0.20% less at each point within the range.

The effective annual management fee for each class of each fund for the six
months ended September 30, 2008, was as follows:

                         Investor, A, B, C & R   Institutional

Equity Income                    0.97%               0.77%
Value                            1.00%               0.80%
Large Company Value              0.82%               0.62%


------
34


DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES -- The Board of Directors has adopted a separate
Master Distribution and Individual Shareholder Services Plan for each of the A
Class, B Class, C Class and R Class (collectively the plans), pursuant to Rule
12b-1 of the 1940 Act. The plans provide that the A Class will pay American
Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS) an annual distribution and service
fee of 0.25%. The plans provide that the B Class and the C Class will each pay
ACIS an annual distribution fee of 0.75% and service fee of 0.25%. The plans
provide that the R Class will pay ACIS an annual distribution and service fee
of 0.50%. The fees are computed and accrued daily based on each class's daily
net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fees are used to pay financial
intermediaries for distribution and individual shareholder services. Fees
incurred under the plans during the six months ended September 30, 2008, are
detailed in the Statement of Operations.

RELATED PARTIES -- Certain officers and directors of the corporation are also
officers and/or directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of
American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent of the corporation's
investment advisor, ACIM, the distributor of the corporation, ACIS, and the
corporation's transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC.

The funds are eligible to invest in a money market fund for temporary
purposes, which is managed by J.P. Morgan Investment Management, Inc. (JPMIM).
JPMIM is a wholly owned subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM). JPM is an
equity investor in ACC. The funds have a securities lending agreement with
JPMorgan Chase Bank (JPMCB). JPMCB is a custodian of the funds and a wholly
owned subsidiary of JPM.

5. AFFILIATED COMPANY TRANSACTIONS

If a fund's holding represents ownership of 5% or more of the voting
securities of a company, the company is affiliated as defined in the 1940 Act.
A summary of transactions for each company which is or was an affiliate at or
during the six months ended September 30, 2008 follows:

(1) Company was not an affiliate at September 30, 2008.

6. SECURITIES LENDING

As of September 30, 2008, securities in Value valued at $3,304,063 were on
loan through the lending agent, JPMCB, to certain approved borrowers. As of
September 30, 2008, Equity Income and Large Company Value did not have any
securities on loan. JPMCB receives and maintains collateral in the form of
cash and/or acceptable securities as approved by ACIM. Cash collateral is
invested in authorized investments by the lending agent in a pooled account.
The value of cash collateral received at period end is disclosed in the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities and investments made with the cash by the
lending agent are listed in the Schedule of Investments. Any deficiencies or
excess of collateral must be delivered or transferred by the member firms no
later than the close of business on the next business day. The total market
value of all collateral received for Value, at this date, was $3,427,866. The
funds' risks in securities lending are that the borrower may not provide
additional collateral when required or return the securities when due. If the
borrower defaults, receipt of the collateral by the funds may be delayed or
limited.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The funds' securities valuation process is based on several considerations and
may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the positions held by
the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are
classified into three broad levels as follows:

* Level 1 valuation inputs consist of actual quoted prices based on an active
market;

* Level 2 valuation inputs consist of significant direct or indirect
observable market data; or

* Level 3 valuation inputs consist of significant unobservable inputs such as
the fund's own assumptions.

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not an
indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other
financial instruments.

The following is a summary of the valuation inputs used to determine the fair
value of the funds' securities and other financial instruments as of September
30, 2008:

8. BANK LINE OF CREDIT

The funds, along with certain other funds managed by ACIM or ACGIM, have a
$500,000,000 unsecured bank line of credit agreement with Bank of America,
N.A. The funds may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes to fund
shareholder redemptions. Borrowings under the agreement, which is subject to
annual renewal, bear interest at the Federal Funds rate plus 0.40%. The funds
did not borrow from the line during the six months ended September 30, 2008.

9. RISK FACTORS

There are certain risks involved in investing in foreign securities. These
risks include those resulting from future adverse political, social, and
economic development, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the possible
imposition of exchange controls, and other foreign laws and restrictions.

10. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The book-basis 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. These differences reflect
the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and
losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in
reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of September 30, 2008, the components of investments for federal income tax
purposes were as follows:

                                                                        Large
                                  Equity Income        Value        Company Value
Federal tax cost of investments   $4,979,113,953   $1,970,227,921   $1,926,839,093
                                  ==============   ==============   ==============
Gross tax appreciation of
investments                        $ 201,059,744     $ 70,530,257    $ 261,403,307

Gross tax depreciation of
investments                        (417,802,847)    (242,862,921)    (299,023,204)
                                  --------------   --------------   --------------
Net tax appreciation
(depreciation) of investments     $(216,743,103)   $(172,332,664)    $(37,619,897)
                                  ==============   ==============   ==============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis cost and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales.

As of March 31, 2008, Equity Income had capital loss deferrals of
$(307,109,322). As of March 31, 2008, Value had capital and currency loss
deferrals of $(200,845,570) and $(56,460), respectively. The capital and
currency loss deferrals represent net capital and foreign currency losses
incurred in the five-month period ended March 31, 2008. Equity Income and
Value have elected to treat such losses as having been incurred in the
following fiscal year for federal income tax purposes.

11. CORPORATE EVENT

On July 27, 2007, the A Class (old) shareholders of Value approved a
reclassification of A Class (old) shares into Advisor Class shares. The change
was approved by the Board of Directors on November 29, 2006 and March 7, 2007.
The reclassification was effective on September 4, 2007. Subsequent to the
reclassification, the Advisor Class was renamed A Class.

On September 25, 2007, the A Class shareholders of Large Company Value
approved a reclassification of A Class (old) shares into Advisor Class shares.
The change was approved by the Board of Directors on November 29, 2006 and
March 7, 2007. The reclassification was effective on December 3, 2007.
Subsequent to the reclassification, the Advisor Class was renamed A Class.

12. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (FAS 157), in
September 2006, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value and expands the required financial statement disclosures about fair
value measurements. The adoption of FAS 157 does not materially impact the
determination of fair value.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (FAS 161). FAS 161 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161 amends and expands
disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. FAS 161
requires qualitative disclosures about the objectives and strategies of
derivative instruments, quantitative disclosures about the fair value amounts
of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures of
credit-risk-related contingent features in hedging activities. Management is
currently evaluating the impact that adopting FAS 161 will have on the
financial statement disclosures.

(1) Six months ended September 30, 2008 (unaudited).

(2) August 29, 2003 (commencement of sale) through March 31, 2004.

(3) Computed using average shares outstanding throughout the period.

(4) Total return assumes reinvestment of net investment income and capital
gains distributions, if any. Total returns for periods less than one year are
not annualized. The total return of the classes may not precisely reflect the
class expense differences because of the impact of calculating the net asset
values to two decimal places. If net asset values were calculated to three
decimal places, the total return differences would more closely reflect the
class expense differences. The calculation of net asset values to two decimal
places is made in accordance with SEC guidelines and does not result in any
gain or loss of value between one class and another.

(5) Annualized.

(6) During a portion of the year ended March 31, 2005, the class received a
partial reimbursement of its distribution and service fees. Had fees not been
reimbursed the annualized ratio of operating expenses to average net assets
and annualized ratio of net investment income (loss) to average net assets
would have been 1.49% and 2.06%, respectively.

(7) Portfolio turnover is calculated at the fund level. Percentage indicated
was calculated for the year ended March 31, 2004.

(3) Total return assumes reinvestment of net investment income and capital

Total returns for periods less than one year are not annualized. The total
return of the classes may not precisely reflect the class expense differences
because of the impact of calculating the net asset values to two decimal
places. If net asset values were calculated to three decimal places, the total
return differences would more closely reflect the class expense differences.
The calculation of net asset values to two decimal places is made in

APPROVAL OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS
Equity Income, Value and Large Company Value

Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment
advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated and approved by a
majority of a fund's independent directors or trustees (the "Directors") each
year. At American Century, this process is referred to as the "15(c) Process."
As a part of this process, the board reviews fund performance, shareholder
services, audit and compliance information, and a variety of other reports
from the advisor concerning fund operations. In addition to this annual
review, the board of directors oversees and evaluates on a continuous basis at
its quarterly meetings the nature and quality of significant services
performed by the advisor, fund performance, audit and compliance information,
and a variety of other reports relating to fund operations. The board, or
committees of the board, also holds special meetings as needed.

Under a Securities and Exchange Commission rule, each fund is required to
disclose in its annual or semiannual report, as appropriate, the material
factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the board's approval or
renewal of any advisory agreements within the fund's most recently completed
fiscal half-year period.

ANNUAL CONTRACT REVIEW PROCESS

As part of the annual 15(c) Process undertaken during the most recent fiscal
half-year period, the Directors reviewed extensive data and information
compiled by the advisor and certain independent providers of evaluative data
(the "15(c) Providers") concerning Equity Income, Value and Large Company
Value (the "funds") and the services provided to the funds under the
management agreement. The information considered and the discussions held at
the meetings included, but were not limited to:

* the nature, extent and quality of investment management, shareholder
services and other services provided to the funds;

* reports on the wide range of programs and services the advisor provides to
the funds and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;

* information about the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory
experience of the advisor;

* data comparing the cost of owning the funds to the cost of owning similar
funds;

* data comparing the funds' performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a
peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and
strategies;

* financial data showing the profitability of the funds to the advisor and the
overall profitability of the advisor; and

* data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management
clients of the advisor.

In keeping with its practice, the funds' board of directors held two in-person
meetings and one telephonic meeting to review and discuss the information
provided. The board also had the benefit of the advice of its independent
counsel throughout the period.

FACTORS CONSIDERED

The Directors considered all of the information provided by the advisor, the
15(c) Providers, and the board's independent counsel, and evaluated such
information for each fund for which the board has responsibility. In
connection with their review of


------
60


the fund, the Directors did not identify any single factor as being
all-important or controlling, and each Director may have attributed different
levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management
agreement under the terms ultimately determined by the board to be
appropriate, the Directors' decision was based on the following factors.

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES--GENERALLY. Under the management
agreement, the advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all
services necessary for the operation of the funds. The board noted that under
the management agreement, the advisor provides or arranges at its own expense
a wide variety of services including:

* fund construction and design

* portfolio security selection

* initial capitalization/funding

* securities trading

* custody of fund assets

* daily valuation of the funds' portfolio

* shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder
confirmations, recordkeeping and communications

* legal services

* regulatory and portfolio compliance

* financial reporting

* marketing and distribution

The Directors noted that many of the services provided by the advisor have
expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to
shareholder demands, competition in the industry and the changing regulatory
environment. In performing their evaluation, the Directors considered
information received in connection with the annual review, as well as
information provided on an ongoing basis at their regularly scheduled board
and committee meetings.

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The nature of the investment management
services provided to the funds is quite complex and allows fund shareholders
access to professional money management, instant diversification of their
investments and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the board
expects the advisor to manage the funds in accordance with its investment
objectives and approved strategies. In providing these services, the advisor
utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts,
research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information
technology, research, training, compliance and other systems to conduct their
business. At each quarterly meeting the Directors review investment
performance information for the funds, together with comparative information
for appropriate benchmarks and peer groups of funds managed similarly to the
funds. The Directors also review detailed performance information during the
15(c) Process comparing the funds' performance with that of similar funds not
managed by the


------
61


advisor. If performance concerns are identified, the Directors discuss with
the advisor the reasons for such results (e.g., market conditions, security
selection) and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The funds'
quarter end performance fell below the median for their peer groups for both
the one- and three-year periods during the past year. The board discussed the
funds' performance with the advisor and was satisfied with the efforts being
undertaken by the advisor. The board will continue to monitor these efforts
and the performance of the funds. More detailed information about the funds'
performance can be found in the PERFORMANCE and PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY sections
of this report.

SHAREHOLDER AND OTHER SERVICES. The advisor provides the funds with a
comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The
Directors review reports and evaluations of such services at their regular
quarterly meetings, including the annual meeting concerning contract review,
and reports to the board. These reports include, but are not limited to,
information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the
shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels,
shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal
sources), technology support, new products and services offered to fund
shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services,
auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. Certain
aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the
quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third
party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not
managed by the advisor.

COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED AND PROFITABILITY. The advisor provides detailed
information concerning its cost of providing various services to the funds,
its profitability in managing the funds, its overall profitability, and its
financial condition. The Directors have reviewed with the advisor the
methodology used to prepare this financial information. This financial
information regarding the advisor is considered in order to evaluate the
advisor's financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services
under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current
management fee. The board concluded that the advisor's profits were reasonable
in light of the services provided to the funds.

ETHICS. The Directors generally consider the advisor's commitment to providing
quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically.
They noted that the advisor's practices generally meet or exceed industry best
practices.

ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Directors review reports provided by the advisor on
economies of scale for the complex as a whole and the year-over-year changes
in revenue, costs, and profitability. The Directors concluded that economies
of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a
fund-by-fund basis. This analysis is also complicated by the additional
services and content provided by the advisor and its reinvestment in its
ability to provide and expand those services. Accordingly, the Directors also
seek to evaluate economies of scale by reviewing other information, such as
year-over-year profitability of the advisor generally, the profitability of
its management of the funds specifically, the expenses incurred by the advisor
in providing various functions to the funds, and the fees of competitive funds
not managed by the advisor. The Directors believe the advisor is appropriately
sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, fee
breakpoints as the funds increase in size, and through reinvestment in its
business to provide shareholders additional content and services.


------
62


COMPARISON TO OTHER FUNDS' FEES. The funds pay the advisor a single,
all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary
for the management and operation of the funds, other than brokerage expenses,
taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and the fees and expenses of the
funds' independent directors (including their independent legal counsel).
Under the unified fee structure, the advisor is responsible for providing all
investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance,
recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and
supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other
funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a
transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges and other
expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and Rule 12b-1
distribution fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these
other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The board believes
the unified fee structure is a benefit to fund shareholders because it clearly
discloses to shareholders the cost of owning fund shares, and, since the
unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of fund shareholders, it shifts
to the advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the funds and provides
a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the
Directors' analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data
compiled by a 15(c) Provider comparing the funds' unified fee to the total
expense ratio of other funds in the funds' peer groups. The unified fee
charged to shareholders of each of the funds was below the median of the total
expense ratios of their respective peer groups. The board concluded that the
management fee paid by the funds to the advisor was reasonable in light of the
services provided to the funds.

COMPARISON TO FEES AND SERVICES PROVIDED TO OTHER CLIENTS OF THE ADVISOR. The
Directors also requested and received information from the advisor concerning
the nature of the services, fees, and profitability of its advisory services
to advisory clients other than the funds. They observed that these varying
types of client accounts require different services and involve different
regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the funds. The
Directors analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and
services provided to the funds were reasonable by comparison.

COLLATERAL BENEFITS DERIVED BY THE ADVISOR. The Directors reviewed information
from the advisor concerning collateral benefits it receives as a result of its
relationship with the funds. They concluded that the advisor's primary
business is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use the fund or
shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and
therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The
Directors noted that the advisor receives proprietary research from
broker-dealers that execute fund portfolio transactions and concluded that
this research is likely to benefit fund shareholders. The Directors also
determined that the advisor is able to provide investment management services
to certain clients other than the funds, at least in part, due to its existing
infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Directors concluded,
however, that the assets of those other clients are not material to the
analysis and, in any event, are included with the assets of the funds to
determine breakpoints in the funds' fee schedule, provided they are managed
using the same investment team and strategy.

CONCLUSIONS OF THE DIRECTORS

As a result of this process, the board, including all of the independent
directors, in the absence of particular circumstances and assisted by the
advice of legal counsel that is independent of the advisor, taking into
account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the
advisor concluded that the investment management agreement between the funds
and the advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and
should be renewed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

RETIREMENT ACCOUNT INFORMATION

As required by law, any distributions you receive from an IRA or certain
403(b), 457 and qualified plans [those not eligible for rollover to an IRA or
to another qualified plan] are subject to federal income tax withholding,
unless you elect not to have withholding apply. Tax will be withheld on the
total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not
subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case,
excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding
election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.

If you don't want us to withhold on this amount, you must notify us to not
withhold the federal income tax. Even if you plan to roll over the amount you
withdraw to another tax-deferred account, the withholding rate still applies
to the withdrawn amount unless we have received notice not to withhold federal
income tax prior to the withdrawal. You may notify us in writing or in certain
situations by telephone or through other electronic means. You have the right
to revoke your withholding election at any time and any election you make may
remain in effect until revoked by filing a new election.

Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable
for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect
not to have income tax withheld or you don't have enough income tax withheld,
you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties
under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments
are not sufficient.

State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address
is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income
tax withheld. State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in
accordance with the respective state rules.

It was a time of enormous upheaval and change. We understand and appreciate the challenges you have faced during this historic period, and share your concerns about the economy, the markets, and fund holdings. To help address these issues, I'd like to provide my perspective on how we have managed--and continue to manage--your investments in these uncertain times. As a company, American Century Investments® is well positioned to deal with market turmoil. We are financially strong and privately held, which allows us to align our resources with your long-term investment interests.

Our seasoned investment professionals have substantial experience and have successfully navigated previous market crises. These portfolio managers and analysts continue to use a team approach and follow disciplined investment processes designed to produce the best possible long-term results for you.

MARKET PERSPECTIVE [photo of Chief Investment Officer] By Enrique Chang, Chief Investment Officer, American Century Investments AN OLD-FASHIONED FINANCIAL CRISIS The six months ended September 30, 2008, represented a tumultuous period for the U.S. equity market. Continued deterioration in the credit environment and a deepening liquidity crisis--ignited by last year's mortgage-market meltdown--led to an increasingly urgent need for capital at many major financial companies. By September, the crisis reached a tipping point as a number of major financial institutions filed for bankruptcy, sold out to competitors to avoid insolvency, or were taken over by the federal government. The financial crisis had a detrimental impact on an already weak U.S. economy. Steady job losses pushed the unemployment rate up to a five-year high, consumer spending began to decline, and mortgage foreclosures and delinquencies rose markedly. In addition, as the crisis spread around the world, the likelihood of diminishing global economic activity increased. On the positive side, the slowing economic environment brought the prices of energy and other commodities down sharply from record highs reached during the summer. The troubling financial and economic news led to an unprecedented level of stock market turbulence. Day-to-day volatility increased dramatically as investor confidence faltered, producing a market storm that has not been seen since the 1930s. As the accompanying table shows, stocks were mostly down across the board for the six-month period, though small-cap shares held up considerably better than their mid- and large-cap peers. INTERVENTION AND RESILIENCY As business and economic conditions worsened, intervention increased. The U.S. government and the Federal Reserve have provided extraordinary levels of fiscal and monetary assistance, and other central banks and governments are likely to contribute additional stimulus in the months ahead. Furthermore, downturns play the sometimes necessary role of correcting past market misbehavior and eliminating excesses and inefficiencies. The current downturn was years in the making, so it may take some time before we are firmly on the road to recovery. However, we remain confident in the stock market's long-term resiliency.

PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
Equity Index

Subadvisor: Northern Trust Investments, N.A.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Equity Index returned -11.03%* for the six months ended September 30, 2008,
compared with the -10.87% return of its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index. The
portfolio's results reflected operating expenses, whereas the index return did
not.

The portfolio's double-digit decline for the six-month period resulted from
the turbulence in the U.S. stock market brought on by the worsening credit and
liquidity crisis. Every sector in the S&P 500 declined during the period, with
financials and commodity-related stocks taking the worst of it.

FINANCIALS IN DISTRESS

The credit crunch weighed heavily on the financials sector, which had the
biggest negative impact on portfolio performance for the six months. Five of
the portfolio's ten worst individual contributors to performance came from the
financials sector, led by insurance firm American International Group (AIG).
AIG plunged late in the period after the company agreed to an $85 billion
bailout by the federal government that could cost the insurer its independence.

Other casualties among the portfolio's financials holdings included mortgage
lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which were nationalized by the federal
government; brokerage firm Lehman Brothers, which filed for bankruptcy; and
banks Wachovia and Washington Mutual, both of which agreed to be acquired by
competitors under pressure from regulators.

On the positive side, however, the top two contributors to portfolio
performance were also financial stocks--commercial bank Wells Fargo and
investment bank JPMorgan Chase. Both companies were better-capitalized than
many of their peers, and as a result they were able to acquire other
downtrodden financial companies at fire-sale prices.

COMMODITY SECTORS SLUMPED

The slowing economy and a sharp decline in commodity prices put downward
pressure on the industrials and materials sectors. Machinery manufacturers and
industrial conglomerates detracted the most in the industrials sector. General
Electric was the weakest contributor, falling as troubles at its finance unit
weighed on the company's earnings. Agricultural machinery maker Deere also
declined as the weaker economic environment led to reduced demand for its
products.

Equity Index

In the materials sector, metals and mining companies and chemicals producers
were responsible for much of the overall decline. Metals producer Freeport
McMoRan Copper & Gold and agricultural chemicals producer Monsanto were the
biggest individual detractors.

Energy stocks were also hit by the decline in commodity prices, though to a
lesser extent. Oil prices peaked at record highs in July and then fell back in
the ensuing months. Notable decliners included energy producer Exxon Mobil and
oil services provider Schlumberger.

CONSUMER STAPLES AND HEALTH CARE HELD UP BEST

The portfolio's consumer staples and health care holdings were the best
performers, producing largely flat returns for the six-month period. Companies
in these sectors tend to perform well in slower economic conditions because
their products and services are always in demand regardless of the economic
environment.

Discount retailer Wal-Mart was the top contributor in the consumer staples
sector, benefiting from a consumer shift toward shopping at discount stores.
Beverage maker Anheuser-Busch was another positive contributor, advancing
after the company agreed to be acquired by international beverage giant InBev.

In the health care sector, biotechnology stocks were the best performers. The
top contributor in this sector was biotech company Amgen, which rallied as its
new osteoporosis medication, denosumab, achieved success in clinical trials.
Johnson & Johnson also performed well as strength in its consumer products and
medical devices units helped offset weakness in its pharmaceutical business.

OUTLOOK

Volatility and uncertainty are likely to remain the watchwords in the stock
market as we move through the last few months of 2008. The market faces a
probable recession, depressed corporate earnings, and the continued unwinding
of the credit crunch. However, the market's sell-off over the past year has
wrung out much of the speculative excess, and the federal government's recent
efforts to provide systemic stability should establish the groundwork for an
eventual recovery.

SHAREHOLDER FEE EXAMPLE (UNAUDITED)

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs,
including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange
fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and
service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to
help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund
and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual
funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the
period and held for the entire period from April 1, 2008 to September 30, 2008.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses
for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you
invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First,
identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading "Expenses Paid During
Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or
Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in
an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or
retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50
semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than
$10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay
the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will
include your investments in all PERSONAL ACCOUNTS (including American Century
Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number.
PERSONAL ACCOUNTS include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA
accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs
(including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and
certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business
retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage
accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. We will not charge the
fee as long as you choose to manage your accounts exclusively online. If you
are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be
reduced by the fee amount.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and
hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your
fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is
not the actual return of a fund's share class. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare
this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in
the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales
charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION -- American Century Capital Portfolios, Inc. (the corporation) is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an
open-end management investment company. Equity Index Fund (the fund) is one
fund in a series issued by the corporation. The fund is nondiversified under
the 1940 Act. The fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital
growth. The fund pursues its objective by matching, as closely as possible,
the investment characteristics and results of the S&P 500 Composite Price
Index (S&P 500 Index). The following is a summary of the fund's significant
accounting policies.

MULTIPLE CLASS -- The fund is authorized to issue the Investor Class and the
Institutional Class. The share classes differ principally in their respective
distribution and shareholder servicing expenses and arrangements. All shares
of the fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets of the
class to which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend,
liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for
class specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only
individual classes. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and
unrealized capital gains and losses of the fund are allocated to each class of
shares based on their relative net assets.

SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities traded primarily on a principal securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price, or at the mean of the
latest bid and asked prices where no last sales price is available. Depending
on local convention or regulation, securities traded over-the-counter are
valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price,
or the official close price. Debt securities not traded on a principal
securities exchange are valued through a commercial pricing service or at the
mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. Discount notes may be valued
through a commercial pricing service or at amortized cost, which approximates
fair value. Securities traded on foreign securities exchanges and
over-the-counter markets are normally completed before the close of business
on days that the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange) is open and may also
take place on days when the Exchange is not open. If an event occurs after the
value of a security was established but before the net asset value per share
was determined that was likely to materially change the net asset value, that
security would be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted
by the Board of Directors. If the fund determines that the market price of a
portfolio security is not readily available, or that the valuation methods
mentioned above do not reflect the security's fair value, such security is
valued as determined by the Board of Directors or its designee, in accordance
with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors, if such determination would
materially impact a fund's net asset value. Certain other circumstances may
cause the fund to use alternative procedures to value a security such as: a
security has been declared in default; trading in a security has been halted
during the trading day; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading
will commence.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- For financial reporting purposes, security
transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and
losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for
federal income tax purposes.

SECURITIES ON LOAN -- The fund may lend portfolio securities through its
lending agent to certain approved borrowers in order to earn additional
income. The income earned, net of any rebates or fees, is included in the
Statement of Operations. The fund continues to recognize any gain or loss in
the market price of the securities loaned and records any interest earned or
dividends declared.

INVESTMENT INCOME -- Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is
recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that
represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of
cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The fund estimates the
components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable
distributions or capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts
and amortization of premiums.


------
20


FUTURES CONTRACTS -- The fund may enter into futures contracts in order to
manage the fund's exposure to changes in market conditions. One of the risks
of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value
of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying
securities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the fund is required to
deposit either cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage
of the contract value (initial margin). Subsequent payments (variation margin)
are made or received daily, in cash, by the fund. The variation margin is
equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized
gains and losses. The fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the
contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses
occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of
realized gain (loss) on futures transactions and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on futures, respectively.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The fund may enter into repurchase agreements with
institutions that American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the
investment advisor) has determined are creditworthy pursuant to criteria
adopted by the Board of Directors. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at
cost. The fund requires that the collateral, represented by securities,
received in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
manner sufficient to enable the fund to obtain those securities in the event
of a default under the repurchase agreement. ACIM monitors, on a daily basis,
the securities transferred to ensure the value, including accrued interest, of
the securities under each repurchase agreement is equal to or greater than
amounts owed to the fund under each repurchase agreement.

JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT -- Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other registered
investment companies having management agreements with ACIM or American
Century Global Investment Management, Inc. (ACGIM), may transfer uninvested
cash balances into a joint trading account. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or
Agency obligations.

INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is the fund's policy to distribute substantially all
net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise
qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. The fund has adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Income Taxes" during
the current fiscal year. The fund is no longer subject to examination by tax
authorities for years prior to 2005. At this time, management believes there
are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would
not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that
the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in
the next twelve months. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or
state income taxes. Interest and penalties associated with any federal or
state income tax obligations, if any, are recorded as interest expense.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net investment income are declared
and paid quarterly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are
generally declared and paid annually.

INDEMNIFICATIONS -- Under the corporation's organizational documents, its
officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out
of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal
course of business, the fund enters into contracts that 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.
The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be
remote.

USE OF ESTIMATES -- The financial statements are prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
which may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the
date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

2. FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

MANAGEMENT FEES -- The corporation has entered into a Management Agreement
with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the fund with investment advisory and
management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee)
per class. The Agreement provides that all expenses of the fund, except
brokerage commissions, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of those directors
who are not considered "interested persons" as defined in the 1940 Act
(including counsel fees) and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The
fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of the
specific class of shares of the fund and paid monthly in arrears. For funds
with a stepped fee schedule, the rate of the fee is determined by applying a
fee rate calculation formula. This formula takes into account all of the
investment advisor's assets under management in the fund's investment strategy
(strategy assets) to calculate the appropriate fee rate for the fund. The
strategy assets include the fund's assets and the assets of other clients of
the investment advisor that are not in the American Century Investments family
of funds, but that have the same investment team and investment strategy. The
annual management fee schedule for the fund ranges from 0.430% to 0.490% for
the Investor Class. The Institutional Class is 0.200% less at each point
within the range. The effective annual management fee for each class of the
fund for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was 0.49% and 0.29% for the
Investor Class and Institutional Class, respectively.

ACIM has entered into a Subadvisory Agreement with Northern Trust Investments,
N.A. (NTI) (the subadvisor) on behalf of the fund. The subadvisor makes
investment decisions for the fund in accordance with the fund's investment
objectives, policies and restrictions under the supervision of ACIM and the
Board of Directors. ACIM pays all costs associated with retaining NTI as the
subadvisor of the fund.

RELATED PARTIES -- Certain officers and directors of the corporation are also
officers and/or directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of
American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent of the corporation's
investment advisor, ACIM, the distributor of the corporation, American Century
Investment Services, Inc., and the corporation's transfer agent, American
Century Services, LLC.

The fund is eligible to invest in a money market fund for temporary purposes,
which is managed by J.P. Morgan Investment Management, Inc. (JPMIM). JPMIM is
a wholly owned subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM). JPM is an equity
investor in ACC. The fund has a securities lending agreement with JPMorgan
Chase Bank (JPMCB). JPMCB is a custodian of the fund and a wholly owned
subsidiary of JPM.

3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term
investments, for the six months ended September 30, 2008, were $17,225,925 and

5. SECURITIES LENDING

As of September 30, 2008, the fund did not have any securities on loan. JPMCB
receives and maintains collateral in the form of cash and/or acceptable
securities as approved by ACIM. Cash collateral is invested in authorized
investments by the lending agent in a pooled account. The value of cash
collateral received at period end is disclosed in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities and investments made with the cash by the lending agent are listed
in the Schedule of Investments. Any deficiencies or excess of collateral must
be delivered or transferred by the member firms no later than the close of
business on the next business day. The fund's risks in securities lending are
that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or
return the securities when due. If the borrower defaults, receipt of the
collateral by the fund may be delayed or limited.

6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fund's securities valuation process is based on several considerations and
may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the positions held by
the fund. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are
classified into three broad levels as follows:

* Level 1 valuation inputs consist of actual quoted prices based on an active
market;

* Level 2 valuation inputs consist of significant direct or indirect
observable market data; or

* Level 3 valuation inputs consist of significant unobservable inputs such as
the fund's own assumptions.

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not an
indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other
financial instruments.

The following is a summary of the valuation inputs used to determine the fair
value of the fund's securities and other financial instruments as of September
30, 2008:

                               Value of Investment     Unrealized Gain (Loss) on

                                   ============               ==========

* Includes futures contracts.

7. BANK LINE OF CREDIT

The fund, along with certain other funds managed by ACIM or ACGIM, has a
$500,000,000 unsecured bank line of credit agreement with Bank of America,
N.A. The fund may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes to fund
shareholder redemptions. Borrowings under the agreement, which is subject to
annual renewal, bear interest at the Federal Funds rate plus 0.40%. The fund
did not borrow from the line during the six months ended September 30, 2008.

8. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The book-basis 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. These differences reflect
the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and
losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in
reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of September 30, 2008, the components of investments for federal income tax
purposes were as follows:

Federal tax cost of investments                          $384,956,406
                                                         ============
Gross tax appreciation of investments                    $152,588,064

Gross tax depreciation of investments                    (61,113,138)
                                                         ------------
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments       $ 91,474,926
                                                         ============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis cost and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales and return of capital dividends.

As of March 31, 2008, the fund had accumulated capital losses of
$(64,151,807), which represent net capital loss carryovers that may be used to
offset future realized capital gains for federal income tax purposes. The
capital loss carryovers expire as follows:

      2011            2012           2013           2014           2015
 $(46,771,036)    $(1,957,751)   $(1,992,016)   $(5,270,954)   $(8,160,050)

9. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (FAS 157), in
September 2006, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value and expands the required financial statement disclosures about fair
value measurements. The adoption of FAS 157 does not materially impact the
determination of fair value.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (FAS 161). FAS 161 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161 amends and expands
disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. FAS 161
requires qualitative disclosures about the objectives and strategies of
derivative instruments, quantitative disclosures about the fair value amounts
of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures of
credit-risk-related contingent features in hedging activities. Management is
currently evaluating the impact that adopting FAS 161 will have on the
financial statement disclosures.

APPROVAL OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
Equity Index

Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment
advisory services (including subadvisory services) are required to be
reviewed, evaluated and approved by a majority of a fund's independent
directors or trustees (the "Directors") each year. At American Century
Investments, this process is referred to as the "15(c) Process." As a part of
this process, the board reviews fund performance, shareholder services, audit
and compliance information, and a variety of other reports from the advisor
concerning fund operations. In addition to this annual review, the board of
directors oversees and evaluates on a continuous basis at its quarterly
meetings the nature and quality of significant services performed by the
advisor and the subadvisor, fund performance, audit and compliance
information, and a variety of other reports relating to fund operations. The
board, or committees of the board, also holds special meetings as needed.

Under a Securities and Exchange Commission rule, each fund is required to
disclose in its annual or semiannual report, as appropriate, the material
factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the board's approval or
renewal of any advisory agreements within the fund's most recently completed
fiscal half-year period.

ANNUAL CONTRACT REVIEW PROCESS

As part of the annual 15(c) Process undertaken during the most recent fiscal
half-year period, the Directors reviewed extensive data and information
compiled by the advisor and certain independent providers of evaluative data
(the "15(c) Providers") concerning Equity Index (the "Fund") and the services
provided to the Fund under the management and subadvisory agreements. The
information considered and the discussions held at the meetings included, but
were not limited to:

* the nature, extent and quality of investment management, shareholder
services and other services provided to the Fund;

* reports on the wide range of programs and services the advisor provides to
the Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;

* information about the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory
experience of both the advisor and the subadvisor;

* data comparing the cost of owning the Fund to the cost of owning a similar
fund;

* data comparing the Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a
peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and
strategies;

* financial data showing the profitability of the Fund to the advisor and the
overall profitability of the advisor; and

* data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management
clients of the advisor.

In keeping with its practice, the Fund's board of directors held two in-person
meetings and one telephonic meeting to review and discuss the information
provided. The board also had the benefit of the advice of its independent
counsel throughout the period.


------
27


FACTORS CONSIDERED

The Directors considered all of the information provided by the advisor, the
15(c) Providers, and the board's independent counsel, and evaluated such
information for each fund for which the board has responsibility. In
connection with their review of the Fund, the Directors did not identify any
single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Director may
have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In
deciding to renew the management and subadvisory agreements under the terms
ultimately determined by the board to be appropriate, the Directors' decision
was based on the following factors.

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES -- GENERALLY. Under the management
agreement, the advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all
services necessary for the operation of the Fund. The board noted that under
the management agreement, the advisor provides or arranges at its own expense
a wide variety of services including:

* Fund construction and design

* portfolio security selection

* initial capitalization/funding

* securities trading

* custody of Fund assets

* daily valuation of the Fund's portfolio

* shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder
confirmations, recordkeeping and communications

* legal services

* regulatory and portfolio compliance

* financial reporting

* marketing and distribution

The Directors noted that many of the services provided by the advisor have
expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to
shareholder demands, competition in the industry and the changing regulatory
environment. The directors specifically noted that with respect to the Fund,
the advisor had retained the subadvisor to provide the day-to-day security
selection. Under the subadvisory agreement, the subadvisor is responsible for
managing the investment operations and composition of the Fund, including the
purchase, retention, and disposition of the investments contained in the Fund.
In performing their evaluation, the Directors considered information received
in connection with the annual review, as well as information provided on an
ongoing basis at their regularly scheduled board and committee meetings.


------
28


INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The nature of the investment management
services provided to the Fund is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders
access to professional money management, instant diversification of their
investments, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the board
expects the advisor and subadvisor to manage the Fund in accordance with its
investment objectives and approved strategies. In providing these services,
the advisor and subadvisor utilize teams of investment professionals
(portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders)
who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance
and other systems to conduct their business. At each quarterly meeting the
Directors review investment performance information for the Fund, together
with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks and peer groups of
funds managed similarly to the Fund. The Directors also review detailed
performance information during the 15(c) Process comparing the Fund's
performance with that of similar funds not managed by the advisor. If
performance concerns are identified, the Directors discuss with the advisor
the reasons for such results (e.g., market conditions, security selection) and
any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The Fund's quarter end
performance fell below the index by less than its total expense ratio for both
the one- and three-year periods during the past year.

SHAREHOLDER AND OTHER SERVICES. The advisor provides the Fund with a
comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The
Directors review reports and evaluations of such services at their regular
quarterly meetings, including the annual meeting concerning contract review,
and reports to the board. These reports include, but are not limited to,
information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the
shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels,
shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal
sources), technology support, new products and services offered to Fund
shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services,
auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. Certain
aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the
quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third
party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not
managed by the advisor.

COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED AND PROFITABILITY. The advisor provides detailed
information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Fund, its
profitability in managing the Fund, its overall profitability, and its
financial condition. The Directors have reviewed with the advisor the
methodology used to prepare this financial information. This financial
information regarding the advisor is considered in order to evaluate the
advisor's financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services
under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current
management fee. The board concluded that the advisor's profits were reasonable
in light of the services provided to the Fund. The board did not consider the
profitability of the subadvisor because the subadvisor is paid from the
unified fee of the advisor as a result of arm's length negotiations.

ETHICS. The Directors generally consider the advisor's commitment to providing
quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically.
They noted that the advisor's practices generally meet or exceed industry best
practices. With respect to the subadvisor, as part of its oversight
responsibilities, the board approves the subadvisor's code of ethics and any
changes thereto. Further, through the advisor's compliance group, the board
stays abreast of any violations of the subadvisor's code.


------
29


ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Directors review reports provided by the advisor on
economies of scale for the complex as a whole and the year-over-year changes
in revenue, costs, and profitability. The Directors concluded that economies
of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a
fund-by-fund basis. This analysis is also complicated by the additional
services and content provided by the advisor and its reinvestment in its
ability to provide and expand those services. Accordingly, the Directors also
seek to evaluate economies of scale by reviewing other information, such as
year-over-year profitability of the advisor generally, the profitability of
its management of the Fund specifically, the expenses incurred by the advisor
in providing various functions to the Fund, and the fees of competitive funds
not managed by the advisor. The Directors believe the advisor is appropriately
sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, fee
breakpoints as the Fund increases in size, and through reinvestment in its
business to provide shareholders additional content and services.

COMPARISON TO OTHER FUNDS' FEES. The Fund pays the advisor a single,
all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary
for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses,
taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and the fees and expenses of the
Fund's independent directors (including their independent legal counsel). The
Directors specifically noted that the subadvisory fees paid to the subadvisor
under the subadvisory agreement were subject to arm's length negotiation
between the advisor and the subadvisor and are paid by the advisor out of its
unified fee.

Under the unified fee structure, the advisor is responsible for providing all
investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance,
recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and
supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other
funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a
transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges and other
expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and Rule 12b-1
distribution fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these
other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The board believes
the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly
discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the
unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts
to the advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides
a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the
Directors' analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data
compiled by a 15(c) Provider comparing the Fund's unified fee to the total
expense ratio of other funds in the Fund's peer group. The unified fee charged
to shareholders of the Fund was above the median of the total expense ratios
of its peer group. The board concluded that the management fee paid by the
Fund to the advisor was reasonable in light of the services provided to the
Fund.

COMPARISON TO FEES AND SERVICES PROVIDED TO OTHER CLIENTS OF THE ADVISOR. The
Directors also requested and received information from the advisor concerning
the nature of the services, fees, and profitability of its advisory services
to advisory clients other than the Fund. They observed that these varying
types of client accounts require different services and involve different
regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Fund. The
Directors analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and
services provided to the Fund were reasonable by comparison.

COLLATERAL BENEFITS DERIVED BY THE ADVISOR. The Directors reviewed information
from the advisor concerning collateral benefits it receives as a result of its
relationship with the Fund. They concluded that the advisor's primary business
is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use the Fund or shareholder
information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does
not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Directors noted
that the advisor receives proprietary research from broker-dealers that
execute Fund portfolio transactions and concluded that this research is likely
to benefit Fund shareholders. The Directors also determined that the advisor
is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other
than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to
serve the fund complex. The Directors concluded, however, that the assets of
those other clients are not material to the analysis and, in any event, are
included with the assets of the Fund to determine breakpoints in the Fund's
fee schedule, provided they are managed using the same investment team and
strategy.

CONCLUSIONS OF THE DIRECTORS

As a result of this process, the board, including all of the independent
directors, in the absence of particular circumstances and assisted by the
advice of legal counsel that is independent of the advisor, taking into
account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the
advisor concluded that the investment management agreement between the Fund
and the advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and
should be renewed.

Additionally, the board, including all the independent directors, in the
absence of particular circumstances and assisted by the advice of legal
counsel that is independent of the advisor, taking into account all of the
factors discussed above and the information provided by the advisor, concluded
that the subadvisory agreement between the advisor and the subadvisor, on
behalf of the fund, is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided
and should be renewed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

RETIREMENT ACCOUNT INFORMATION

As required by law, any distributions you receive from an IRA or certain
403(b), 457 and qualified plans [those not eligible for rollover to an IRA or
to another qualified plan] are subject to federal income tax withholding,
unless you elect not to have withholding apply. Tax will be withheld on the
total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not
subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case,
excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding
election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.

If you don't want us to withhold on this amount, you must notify us to not
withhold the federal income tax. Even if you plan to roll over the amount you
withdraw to another tax-deferred account, the withholding rate still applies
to the withdrawn amount unless we have received notice not to withhold federal
income tax prior to the withdrawal. You may notify us in writing or in certain
situations by telephone or through other electronic means. You have the right
to revoke your withholding election at any time and any election you make may
remain in effect until revoked by filing a new election.

Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable
for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect
not to have income tax withheld or you don't have enough income tax withheld,
you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties
under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments
are not sufficient.

State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address
is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income
tax withheld. State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in
accordance with the respective state rules.

[front cover] SEMIANNUAL REPORT SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 [american century investments logo and text logo ®] AMERICAN CENTURY INVESTMENTS REAL ESTATE FUND PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT ENCLOSED PRESIDENT'S LETTER JONATHAN THOMAS [photo of Jonathan Thomas] Dear Investor: Thank you for taking time to review the following discussions, from our experienced portfolio management team, of the fund reporting period ended September 30, 2008. It was a time of enormous upheaval and change. We understand and appreciate the challenges you have faced during this historic period, and share your concerns about the economy, the markets, and fund holdings. To help address these issues, I'd like to provide my perspective on how we have managed--and continue to manage--your investments in these uncertain times. As a company, American Century Investments® is well positioned to deal with market turmoil. We are financially strong and privately held, which allows us to align our resources with your long-term investment interests. In addition, our actively managed, team-based approach allows our portfolio teams to identify attractive investment opportunities regardless of market conditions. Our seasoned investment professionals have substantial experience and have successfully navigated previous market crises. These portfolio managers and analysts continue to use a team approach and follow disciplined investment processes designed to produce the best possible long-term results for you. For example, our equity investment teams are working closely with our fixed income group to monitor and assess credit crisis developments. The fixed income team anticipated dislocation in the credit markets and--through its disciplined processes and teamwork--helped reduce our exposure to investments that suffered substantial losses. How soon a sustainable recovery will occur is uncertain. But I am certain of this: Since 1958, we've demonstrated a consistent ability to execute solid, long-term investment strategies and the discipline to remain focused during times of volatility or shifts in the markets. We've stayed true to our principles, especially our belief that your success is the ultimate measure of our success. Thank you for your continued confidence in us.

MARKET PERSPECTIVE [photo of Chief Investment Officer] By Enrique Chang, Chief Investment Officer, American Century Investments AN OLD-FASHIONED FINANCIAL CRISIS The six months ended September 30, 2008, represented a tumultuous period for the U.S. equity market. Continued deterioration in the credit environment and a deepening liquidity crisis--ignited by last year's mortgage-market meltdown--led to an increasingly urgent need for capital at many major financial companies. By September, the crisis reached a tipping point as a number of major financial institutions filed for bankruptcy, sold out to competitors to avoid insolvency, or were taken over by the federal government. The financial crisis had a detrimental impact on an already weak U.S. economy. Steady job losses pushed the unemployment rate up to a five-year high, consumer spending began to decline, and mortgage foreclosures and delinquencies rose markedly. In addition, as the crisis spread around the world, the likelihood of diminishing global economic activity increased. On the positive side, the slowing economic environment brought the prices of energy and other commodities down sharply from record highs reached during the summer. The troubling financial and economic news led to an unprecedented level of stock market turbulence. Day-to-day volatility increased dramatically as investor confidence faltered, producing a market storm that has not been seen since the 1930s. As the accompanying table shows, stocks were mostly down across the board for the six-month period, though small-cap shares held up considerably better than their mid- and large-cap peers. INTERVENTION AND RESILIENCY As business and economic conditions worsened, intervention increased. The U.S. government and the Federal Reserve have provided extraordinary levels of fiscal and monetary assistance, and other central banks and governments are likely to contribute additional stimulus in the months ahead. Furthermore, downturns play the sometimes necessary role of correcting past market misbehavior and eliminating excesses and inefficiencies. The current downturn was years in the making, so it may take some time before we are firmly on the road to recovery. However, we remain confident in the stock market's long-term resiliency.

PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
Real Estate

Portfolio Manager: Kay Herr

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Real Estate returned -1.39%* for the six months ended September 30, 2008. By
comparison, its benchmark--the MSCI US REIT Index--returned -0.35%. Both the
fund and its benchmark significantly outperformed the -10.87% return of the
S&P 500 Index**, a broad stock market measure. (See the previous page for
additional performance details.)

The portfolio's performance during the reporting period--as well as that of
its benchmark-- masked a high level of volatility in the real estate
investment trust (REIT) market, which was driven by the series of arguably
unprecedented events that beset the financial market. The period was marked by
brokers continuing to report write-downs. In June, Lehman Brothers wrote down
its stake in the 2007 privatization of Archstone-Smith, an apartment REIT.
Post Properties, a long-rumored takeover candidate, announced that they had
concluded their review of a privatization or sale without any offers in June,
in retrospect arguably marking the end of the privatization wave. The period
ended on the heels of the failure of Lehman Brothers, the government rescue of
AIG, and debate over the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). REITs spent
most of the latter part of the period trading largely in sync with financials.

RESIDENTIAL AND RETAIL SECTORS HURT

The portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the period, hampered by
stock selection in the residential and retail sectors. The largest
stock-specific detractors were overweight positions in ProLogis and Colonial
Properties Trust. Shares of ProLogis, the world's largest owner and developer
of warehouse and distribution centers, suffered over the period as the
potential impact of a global slowdown on its overseas operations and a
slowdown in U.S. industrial sector fundamentals resulted in a downward
revision of the company's 2008 and 2009 earnings guidance. While the company
combats market uncertainty in the U.S., its global footprint and access to
capital both for its core operations and funds give us confidence in its
ability to outperform. Colonial Properties has underperformed its apartment
peers significantly due to concerns about its ability to sustain its dividend
while trying to deleverage its balance sheet in this challenging economic
environment. We maintained an overweight in the position due to its attractive
valuation and dividend yield even after a potential reduction, as well as its
exposure to markets like Texas and Colorado that are still generating job
growth.

Real Estate

OFFICE/INDUSTRIAL REITS HELPED

On the upside, the portfolio benefited overall from stock selection in the
office/industrial and "other" sectors. The biggest stock-specific contributors
were overweight positions in Digital Realty Trust and Liberty Property Trust.
Digital Realty owns and develops technology-related properties, primarily data
centers, in markets across the U.S. and overseas. The company reported strong
first-quarter earnings amid continued confidence in both demand prospects and
leasing activity for data-center space despite challenging economic
conditions. Specialty REITs like Digital Realty have outperformed the broader
office universe due to the belief that prospects for their niche exceed those
of the overall sector. Liberty Property, the owner of a suburban industrial
and office portfolio, rallied due to its attractive valuation and a recent
joint venture on a major development that addressed financing concerns.
Moreover, investors have shown interest in companies with lower exposure to
markets with lower employment concentration in financial services.

OUTLOOK

The level of transactional volume in the direct real estate market remains
subdued, resulting in uncertainty over current valuations in the private
market. Commercial real estate cash flows remain relatively resilient, but
this should not be interpreted as a sign of economic strength as real estate
has always been a lagging indicator. We don't expect REITs to make a sustained
rally until the financial-market crisis is resolved and the scale of direct
real estate repricing is determined. With the credit liquidity crisis
continuing to weigh on both the U.S. economy and REIT market, we expect
continued volatility over the next couple of quarters.

SHAREHOLDER FEE EXAMPLE (UNAUDITED)

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs,
including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange
fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and
service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to
help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund
and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual
funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the
period and held for the entire period from April 1, 2008 to September 30, 2008.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses
for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you
invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First,
identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading "Expenses Paid During
Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or
Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in
an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or
retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50
semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than
$10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay
the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will
include your investments in all PERSONAL ACCOUNTS (including American Century
Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number.
PERSONAL ACCOUNTS include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA
accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs
(including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and
certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business
retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage
accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. We will not charge the
fee as long as you choose to manage your accounts exclusively online. If you
are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be
reduced by the fee amount.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and
hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your
fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is
not the actual return of a fund's share class. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare
this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in
the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales
charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION -- American Century Capital Portfolios, Inc. (the corporation) is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an
open-end management investment company. Real Estate Fund (the fund) is one
fund in a series issued by the corporation. The fund is nondiversified under
the 1940 Act. The fund's investment objective is to seek high total investment
return through a combination of capital appreciation and current income. The
fund pursues its objective by investing primarily in securities issued by real
estate investment trusts and in the securities of companies which are
principally engaged in the real estate industry. The following is a summary of
the fund's significant accounting policies.

MULTIPLE CLASS -- The fund is authorized to issue the Investor Class, the
Institutional Class, the A Class (formerly Advisor Class), the B Class, the C
Class and the R Class. The A Class may incur an initial sales charge. The A
Class, B Class and C Class may be subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge. The share classes differ principally in their respective distribution
and shareholder servicing expenses and arrangements. All shares of the fund
represent an equal pro rata interest in the net assets of the class to which
such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other
rights and the same terms and conditions, except for class specific expenses
and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only individual classes.
Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized capital gains
and losses of the fund are allocated to each class of shares based on their
relative net assets. Sale of the B Class, C Class and R Class commenced on
September 28, 2007.

SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities traded primarily on a principal securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price, or at the mean of the
latest bid and asked prices where no last sales price is available. Depending
on local convention or regulation, securities traded over-the-counter are
valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price,
or the official close price. Debt securities not traded on a principal
securities exchange are valued through a commercial pricing service or at the
mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. Discount notes may be valued
through a commercial pricing service or at amortized cost, which approximates
fair value. Securities traded on foreign securities exchanges and
over-the-counter markets are normally completed before the close of business
on days that the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange) is open and may also
take place on days when the Exchange is not open. If an event occurs after the
value of a security was established but before the net asset value per share
was determined that was likely to materially change the net asset value, that
security would be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted
by the Board of Directors. If the fund determines that the market price of a
portfolio security is not readily available, or that the valuation methods
mentioned above do not reflect the security's fair value, such security is
valued as determined by the Board of Directors or its designee, in accordance
with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors, if such determination would
materially impact a fund's net asset value. Certain other circumstances may
cause the fund to use alternative procedures to value a security such as: a
security has been declared in default; trading in a security has been halted
during the trading day; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading
will commence.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- For financial reporting purposes, security
transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and
losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for
federal income tax purposes.

INVESTMENT INCOME -- Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is
recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that
represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of
cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The fund estimates the
components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable
distributions or capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts
and amortization of premiums.

SECURITIES ON LOAN -- The fund may lend portfolio securities through its
lending agent to certain approved borrowers in order to earn additional
income. The income earned, net of any rebates or fees, is included in the
Statement of Operations. The fund continues to recognize any gain or loss in
the market price of the securities loaned and records any interest earned or
dividends declared.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS -- All assets and liabilities initially
expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at prevailing
exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities,
dividend and interest income, and certain expenses are translated at the rates
of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. For
assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, net realized and
unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency translations arise from
changes in currency exchange rates.

Net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses
occurring during the holding period of investment securities are a component
of realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments, respectively. Certain countries may impose
taxes on the contract amount of purchases and sales of foreign currency
contracts in their currency. The fund records the foreign tax expense, if any,
as a reduction to the net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency
transactions.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The fund may enter into repurchase agreements with
institutions that American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the
investment advisor) has determined are creditworthy pursuant to criteria
adopted by the Board of Directors. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at
cost. The fund requires that the collateral, represented by securities,
received in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
manner sufficient to enable the fund to obtain those securities in the event
of a default under the repurchase agreement. ACIM monitors, on a daily basis,
the securities transferred to ensure the value, including accrued interest, of
the securities under each repurchase agreement is equal to or greater than
amounts owed to the fund under each repurchase agreement.

JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT -- Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other registered
investment companies having management agreements with ACIM or American
Century Global Investment Management, Inc. (ACGIM), may transfer uninvested
cash balances into a joint trading account. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or
Agency obligations.

INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is the fund's policy to distribute substantially all
net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise
qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. The fund has adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Income Taxes" during
the current fiscal year. The fund is no longer subject to examination by tax
authorities for years prior to 2005. At this time, management believes there
are no uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would
not be sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that
the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in
the next twelve months. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or
state income taxes. Interest and penalties associated with any federal or
state income tax obligations, if any, are recorded as interest expense.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net investment income are declared
and paid quarterly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are
generally declared and paid annually.

INDEMNIFICATIONS -- Under the corporation's organizational documents, its
officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out
of the performance of their duties to the fund. In addition, in the normal
course of business, the fund enters into contracts that 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.
The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management to be
remote.

USE OF ESTIMATES -- The financial statements are prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
which may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the
date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

2. FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

MANAGEMENT FEES -- The corporation has entered into a Management Agreement
with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the fund with investment advisory and
management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the fee)
per class. The Agreement provides that all expenses of the fund, except
brokerage commissions, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of those directors
who are not considered "interested persons" as defined in the 1940 Act
(including counsel fees) and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The
fee is computed and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of the
specific class of shares of the fund and paid monthly in arrears. For funds
with a stepped fee schedule, the rate of the fee is determined by applying a
fee rate calculation formula. This formula takes into account all of the
investment advisor's assets under management in the fund's investment strategy
(strategy assets) to calculate the appropriate fee rate for the fund. The
strategy assets include the fund's assets and the assets of other clients of
the investment advisor that are not in the American Century Investments family
of funds, but that have the same investment team and investment strategy. The
annual management fee schedule for the fund ranges from 1.05% to 1.20% for the
Investor Class, A Class, B Class, C Class and R Class. The Institutional Class
is 0.20% less at each point within the range. The effective annual management
fee for each class of the fund for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was
1.14%, 0.94%, 1.14%, 1.14%, 1.14% and 1.14% for the Investor Class,
Institutional Class, A Class, B Class, C Class and R Class, respectively.

DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES -- The Board of Directors has adopted a separate
Master Distribution and Individual Shareholder Services Plan for each of the A
Class, B Class, C Class and R Class (collectively the plans), pursuant to Rule
12b-1 of the 1940 Act. The plan provides that the A Class will pay American
Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS) an annual distribution and service
fee of 0.25%. The plans provide that the B Class and the C Class will each pay
ACIS an annual distribution fee of 0.75% and service fee of 0.25%. The plans
provide that the R Class will pay ACIS an annual distribution and service fee
of 0.50%. The fees are computed and accrued daily based on each class's daily
net assets and paid monthly in arrears. The fees are used to pay financial
intermediaries for distribution and individual shareholder services. Fees
incurred under the plan during the six months ended September 30, 2008, are
detailed in the Statement of Operations.

RELATED PARTIES -- Certain officers and directors of the corporation are also
officers and/or directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of
American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent of the corporation's
investment advisor, ACIM, the distributor of the corporation, ACIS, and the
corporation's transfer agent, American Century Services, LLC.

ACIM has entered into a Subadvisory Agreement with J.P. Morgan Investment
Management, Inc. (JPMIM) on behalf of the fund. The subadvisor makes
investment decisions for the fund in accordance with the fund's investment
objectives, policies, and restrictions under the supervision of ACIM and the
Board of Directors. ACIM pays all costs associated with retaining JPMIM as the
subadvisor of the fund. JPMIM is a wholly owned subsidiary of J.P. Morgan
Chase & Co. (JPM). JPM is an equity investor in ACC. The fund has a securities
lending agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank (JPMCB). JPMCB is a custodian of
the fund and a wholly owned subsidiary of JPM.

3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term
investments, for the six months ended September 30, 2008, were $534,579,417
and $400,246,795, respectively.

5. SECURITIES LENDING

As of September 30, 2008, the fund did not have any securities on loan. JPMCB
receives and maintains collateral in the form of cash and/or acceptable
securities as approved by ACIM. Cash collateral is invested in authorized
investments by the lending agent in a pooled account. The value of cash
collateral received at period end is disclosed in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities and investments made with the cash by the lending agent are listed
in the Schedule of Investments. Any deficiencies or excess of collateral must
be delivered or transferred by the member firms no later than the close of
business on the next business day. The fund's risks in securities lending are
that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or
return the securities when due. If the borrower defaults, receipt of the
collateral by the fund may be delayed or limited.


------
17


6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fund's securities valuation process is based on several considerations and
may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the positions held by
the fund. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are
classified into three broad levels as follows:

* Level 1 valuation inputs consist of actual quoted prices based on an active
market;

* Level 2 valuation inputs consist of significant direct or indirect
observable market data; or

* Level 3 valuation inputs consist of significant unobservable inputs such as
the fund's own assumptions.

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not an
indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other
financial instruments.

The following is a summary of the valuation inputs used to determine the fair
value of the fund's securities as of September 30, 2008:

Valuation Inputs                                    Value of Investment Securities
Level 1 -- Quoted Prices                                    $1,347,442,993
Level 2 -- Other Significant Observable Inputs                21,700,000
Level 3 -- Significant Unobservable Inputs                        --
                                                            --------------
                                                            $1,369,142,993
                                                            ==============

7. BANK LINE OF CREDIT

The fund, along with certain other funds managed by ACIM or ACGIM, has a
$500,000,000 unsecured bank line of credit agreement with Bank of America,
N.A. The fund may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes to fund
shareholder redemptions. Borrowings under the agreement, which is subject to
annual renewal, bear interest at the Federal Funds rate plus 0.40%. The fund
did not borrow from the line during the six months ended September 30, 2008.

8. RISK FACTORS

The fund concentrates its investments in a narrow segment of the total market.
Because of this, the fund is subject to certain additional risks as compared
to investing in a more diversified portfolio of investments. The fund may be
subject to certain risks similar to those associated with direct investment in
real estate including but not limited to: local or regional economic
conditions, changes in zoning laws, changes in property values, property tax
increases, overbuilding, increased competition, environmental contamination,
natural disasters, and interest rate risk.

9. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The book-basis 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. These differences reflect
the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and
losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in
reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of September 30, 2008, the components of investments for federal income tax
purposes were as follows:

Federal tax cost of investments                          $1,413,702,099
                                                         ==============
Gross tax appreciation of investments                     $ 100,049,505

Gross tax depreciation of investments                     (144,608,611)
                                                         --------------
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of investments       $ (44,559,106)
                                                         ==============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis cost and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales.

As of March 31, 2008, the fund had capital and currency loss deferrals of
$(81,457,100) and $(2,071), respectively, which represent net capital and
foreign currency losses incurred in the five-month period ended March 31,
2008. The fund has elected to treat such losses as having been incurred in the
following fiscal year for federal income tax purposes.

10. CORPORATE EVENT

Effective November 17, 2008, ACIM will terminate the Subadvisory Agreement
with JPMIM on behalf of the fund. ACIM will assume the responsibilities
performed by the subadvisor. The termination of the Subadvisory Agreement was
approved by the Board of Directors on October 9, 2008.

11. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (FAS 157), in
September 2006, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value and expands the required financial statement disclosures about fair
value measurements. The adoption of FAS 157 does not materially impact the
determination of fair value.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities -- an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (FAS 161). FAS 161 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161 amends and expands
disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. FAS 161
requires qualitative disclosures about the objectives and strategies of
derivative instruments, quantitative disclosures about the fair value amounts
of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures of
credit-risk-related contingent features in hedging activities. Management is
currently evaluating the impact that adopting FAS 161 will have on the
financial statement disclosures.

values to two decimal places. If net asset values were calculated to three
decimal places, the total return differences would more closely reflect the

APPROVAL OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
Real Estate

Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment
advisory services (including subadvisory services) are required to be
reviewed, evaluated and approved by a majority of a fund's independent
directors or trustees (the "Directors") each year. At American Century
Investments, this process is referred to as the "15(c) Process." As a part of
this process, the board reviews fund performance, shareholder services, audit
and compliance information, and a variety of other reports from the advisor
concerning fund operations. In addition to this annual review, the board of
directors oversees and evaluates on a continuous basis at its quarterly
meetings the nature and quality of significant services performed by the
advisor and the subadvisor, fund performance, audit and compliance
information, and a variety of other reports relating to fund operations. The
board, or committees of the board, also holds special meetings as needed.

Under a Securities and Exchange Commission rule, each fund is required to
disclose in its annual or semiannual report, as appropriate, the material
factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the board's approval or
renewal of any advisory agreements within the fund's most recently completed
fiscal half-year period.

ANNUAL CONTRACT REVIEW PROCESS

As part of the annual 15(c) Process undertaken during the most recent fiscal
half-year period, the Directors reviewed extensive data and information
compiled by the advisor and certain independent providers of evaluative data
(the "15(c) Providers") concerning Real Estate (the "Fund") and the services
provided to the Fund under the management and subadvisory agreements. The
information considered and the discussions held at the meetings included, but
were not limited to:

* the nature, extent and quality of investment management, shareholder
services and other services provided to the Fund;

* reports on the wide range of programs and services the advisor provides to
the Fund and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;

* information about the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory
experience of both the advisor and the subadvisor;

* data comparing the cost of owning the Fund to the cost of owning a similar
fund;

* data comparing the Fund's performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a
peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and
strategies;

* financial data showing the profitability of the Fund to the advisor and the
overall profitability of the advisor; and

* data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management
clients of the advisor.

In keeping with its practice, the Fund's board of directors held two in-person
meetings and one telephonic meeting to review and discuss the information
provided. The board also had the benefit of the advice of its independent
counsel throughout the period.

26


FACTORS CONSIDERED

The Directors considered all of the information provided by the advisor, the
15(c) Providers, and the board's independent counsel, and evaluated such
information for each fund for which the board has responsibility. In
connection with their review of the Fund, the Directors did not identify any
single factor as being all-important or controlling, and each Director may
have attributed different levels of importance to different factors. In
deciding to renew the management and subadvisory agreements under the terms
ultimately determined by the board to be appropriate, the Directors' decision
was based on the following factors.

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES -- GENERALLY. Under the management
agreement, the advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all
services necessary for the operation of the Fund. The board noted that under
the management agreement, the advisor provides or arranges at its own expense
a wide variety of services including:

* Fund construction and design

* portfolio security selection

* initial capitalization/funding

* securities trading

* custody of Fund assets

* daily valuation of the Fund's portfolio

* shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder
confirmations, recordkeeping and communications

* legal services

* regulatory and portfolio compliance

* financial reporting

* marketing and distribution

The Directors noted that many of the services provided by the advisor have
expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to
shareholder demands, competition in the industry and the changing regulatory
environment. The directors specifically noted that with respect to the Fund,
the advisor had retained the subadvisor to provide the day-to-day security
selection. Under the subadvisory agreement, the subadvisor is responsible for
managing the investment operations and composition of the Fund, including the
purchase, retention, and disposition of the investments contained in the Fund.
In performing their evaluation, the Directors considered information received
in connection with the annual review, as well as information provided on an
ongoing basis at their regularly scheduled board and committee meetings.


------
27


INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The nature of the investment management
services provided to the Fund is quite complex and allows Fund shareholders
access to professional money management, instant diversification of their
investments, and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the board
expects the advisor and subadvisor to manage the Fund in accordance with its
investment objectives and approved strategies. In providing these services,
the advisor and subadvisor utilize teams of investment professionals
(portfolio managers, analysts, research assistants, and securities traders)
who require extensive information technology, research, training, compliance
and other systems to conduct their business. At each quarterly meeting the
Directors review investment performance information for the Fund, together
with comparative information for appropriate benchmarks and peer groups of
funds managed similarly to the Fund. The Directors also review detailed
performance information during the 15(c) Process comparing the Fund's
performance with that of similar funds not managed by the advisor. If
performance concerns are identified, the Directors discuss with the advisor
the reasons for such results (e.g., market conditions, security selection) and
any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. The Fund's performance
for both the one- and three-year periods was above the median for its peer
group.

SHAREHOLDER AND OTHER SERVICES. The advisor provides the Fund with a
comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The
Directors review reports and evaluations of such services at their regular
quarterly meetings, including the annual meeting concerning contract review,
and reports to the board. These reports include, but are not limited to,
information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the
shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels,
shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal
sources), technology support, new products and services offered to Fund
shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services,
auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. Certain
aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the
quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third
party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not
managed by the advisor.

COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED AND PROFITABILITY. The advisor provides detailed
information concerning its cost of providing various services to the Fund, its
profitability in managing the Fund, its overall profitability, and its
financial condition. The Directors have reviewed with the advisor the
methodology used to prepare this financial information. This financial
information regarding the advisor is considered in order to evaluate the
advisor's financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services
under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current
management fee. The board concluded that the advisor's profits were reasonable
in light of the services provided to the Fund. The board did not consider the
profitability of the subadvisor because the subadvisor is paid from the
unified fee of the advisor as a result of arm's length negotiations.

ETHICS. The Directors generally consider the advisor's commitment to providing
quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically.
They noted that the advisor's practices generally meet or exceed industry best
practices. With respect to the subadvisor, as part of its oversight
responsibilities, the board approves the subadvisor's code of ethics and any
changes thereto. Further, through the advisor's compliance group, the board
stays abreast of any violations of the subadvisor's code.


------
28


ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Directors review reports provided by the advisor on
economies of scale for the complex as a whole and the year-over-year changes
in revenue, costs, and profitability. The Directors concluded that economies
of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a
fund-by-fund basis. This analysis is also complicated by the additional
services and content provided by the advisor and its reinvestment in its
ability to provide and expand those services. Accordingly, the Directors also
seek to evaluate economies of scale by reviewing other information, such as
year-over-year profitability of the advisor generally, the profitability of
its management of the Fund specifically, the expenses incurred by the advisor
in providing various functions to the Fund, and the fees of competitive funds
not managed by the advisor. The Directors believe the advisor is appropriately
sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, fee
breakpoints as the Fund increases in size, and through reinvestment in its
business to provide shareholders additional content and services.

COMPARISON TO OTHER FUNDS' FEES. The Fund pays the advisor a single,
all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary
for the management and operation of the Fund, other than brokerage expenses,
taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and the fees and expenses of the
Fund's independent directors (including their independent legal counsel). The
Directors specifically noted that the subadvisory fees paid to the subadvisor
under the subadvisory agreement were subject to arm's length negotiation
between the advisor and the subadvisor and are paid by the advisor out of its
unified fee.

Under the unified fee structure, the advisor is responsible for providing all
investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance,
recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and
supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other
funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a
transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges and other
expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and Rule 12b-1
distribution fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these
other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The board believes
the unified fee structure is a benefit to Fund shareholders because it clearly
discloses to shareholders the cost of owning Fund shares, and, since the
unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of Fund shareholders, it shifts
to the advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the Fund and provides
a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the
Directors' analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data
compiled by a 15(c) Provider comparing the Fund's unified fee to the total
expense ratio of other funds in the Fund's peer group. The unified fee charged
to shareholders of the Fund was slightly above the median of the total expense
ratios of its peer group. The board concluded that the management fee paid by
the Fund to the advisor was reasonable in light of the services provided to
the Fund.

COMPARISON TO FEES AND SERVICES PROVIDED TO OTHER CLIENTS OF THE ADVISOR. The
Directors also requested and received information from the advisor concerning
the nature of the services, fees, and profitability of its advisory services
to advisory clients other than the Fund. They observed that these varying
types of client accounts require different services and involve different
regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the Fund. The
Directors analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and
services provided to the Fund were reasonable by comparison.


------
29


COLLATERAL BENEFITS DERIVED BY THE ADVISOR. The Directors reviewed information
from the advisor concerning collateral benefits it receives as a result of its
relationship with the Fund. They concluded that the advisor's primary business
is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use the Fund or shareholder
information to generate profits in other lines of business, and therefore does
not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The Directors noted
that the advisor receives proprietary research from broker-dealers that
execute Fund portfolio transactions and concluded that this research is likely
to benefit Fund shareholders. The Directors also determined that the advisor
is able to provide investment management services to certain clients other
than the Fund, at least in part, due to its existing infrastructure built to
serve the fund complex. The Directors concluded, however, that the assets of
those other clients are not material to the analysis and, in any event, are
included with the assets of the Fund to determine breakpoints in the Fund's
fee schedule, provided they are managed using the same investment team and
strategy.

CONCLUSIONS OF THE DIRECTORS

As a result of this process, the board, including all of the independent
directors, in the absence of particular circumstances and assisted by the
advice of legal counsel that is independent of the advisor, taking into
account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the
advisor concluded that the investment management agreement between the Fund
and the advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and
should be renewed.

Additionally, the board, including all the independent directors, in the
absence of particular circumstances and assisted by the advice of legal
counsel that is independent of the advisor, taking into account all of the
factors discussed above and the information provided by the advisor, concluded
that the subadvisory agreement between the advisor and the subadvisor, on
behalf of the fund, is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided
and should be renewed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

RETIREMENT ACCOUNT INFORMATION

As required by law, any distributions you receive from an IRA or certain
403(b), 457 and qualified plans [those not eligible for rollover to an IRA or
to another qualified plan] are subject to federal income tax withholding,
unless you elect not to have withholding apply. Tax will be withheld on the
total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not
subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case,
excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding
election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.

If you don't want us to withhold on this amount, you must notify us to not
withhold the federal income tax. Even if you plan to roll over the amount you
withdraw to another tax-deferred account, the withholding rate still applies
to the withdrawn amount unless we have received notice not to withhold federal
income tax prior to the withdrawal. You may notify us in writing or in certain
situations by telephone or through other electronic means. You have the right
to revoke your withholding election at any time and any election you make may
remain in effect until revoked by filing a new election.

Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable
for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect
not to have income tax withheld or you don't have enough income tax withheld,
you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties
under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments
are not sufficient.

State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address
is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income
tax withheld. State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in
accordance with the respective state rules.

It was a time of enormous upheaval and change. We understand and appreciate the challenges you have faced during this historic period, and share your concerns about the economy, the markets, and fund holdings. To help address these issues, I'd like to provide my perspective on how we have managed--and continue to manage--your investments in these uncertain times. As a company, American Century Investments® is well positioned to deal with market turmoil. We are financially strong and privately held, which allows us to align our resources with your long-term investment interests. In addition, our actively managed, team-based approach allows our portfolio teams to identify attractive investment opportunities regardless of market conditions. Our seasoned investment professionals have substantial experience and have successfully navigated previous market crises. These portfolio managers and analysts continue to use a team approach and follow disciplined investment processes designed to produce the best possible long-term results for you. For example, our equity investment teams are working closely with our fixed income group to monitor and assess credit crisis developments. The fixed income team anticipated dislocation in the credit markets and--through its disciplined processes and teamwork--helped reduce our exposure to investments that suffered substantial losses. How soon a sustainable recovery will occur is uncertain. But I am certain of this: Since 1958, we've demonstrated a consistent ability to execute solid, long-term investment strategies and the discipline to remain focused during times of volatility or shifts in the markets. We've stayed true to our principles, especially our belief that your success is the ultimate measure of our success. Thank you for your continued confidence in us.

MARKET PERSPECTIVE [photo of Chief Investment Officer] By Phil Davidson, Chief Investment Officer, U.S. Value Equity FINANCIAL SYSTEM SHAKEN A series of startling events put downward pressure on the U.S. equity market during the six months ended September 30, 2008. The U.S. financial system remained mired in unprecedented credit-market turmoil, which intensified throughout the six-month period. The credit and liquidity stress reached critical mass in September, when the federal government's takeover of mortgage lenders Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and its rescue of insurer AIG were followed by the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers and Bank of America's acquisition of troubled Merrill Lynch. A number of other major financial firms faced similar circumstances. Few investors anticipated the scope of the credit crunch, which has blossomed into a full-blown financial crisis. The adverse effects are being felt on a global scale--the U.S. economy is likely already facing a recession as job losses mount and consumer spending withers, and the malaise is quickly spreading throughout the rest of the world's economies. The U.S. government and the Federal Reserve have taken extraordinary steps to provide support for the flagging financial system, and other governments and central banks are expected to follow suit. In the stock market, volatility reached extreme levels on a day-to-day basis as investors lost confidence in the financial system and the ability of the government to remedy the situation. As a result, the major stock indexes slumped for the six-month period (see the accompanying table). VALUE OUTPERFORMED In this challenging environment, value stocks generally held up better than growth-oriented issues. Against a persistent backdrop of market uncertainty and heightened volatility, companies with attractive valuation characteristics became beacons for risk-averse investors. However, security selection took on greater importance as the market became rife with "value traps"--stocks that are inexpensive for good reason. Our value funds stand to benefit from an increased emphasis on selectivity, thanks to our risk-conscious focus on robust balance sheets, competitive strength, cash flows, and earnings power. We believe these characteristics are indicative of higher-quality companies that will successfully weather the current financial storm.

PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
NT Large Company Value

Portfolio Managers: Chuck Ritter and Brendan Healy

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

NT Large Company Value returned -12.58%* for the six months ended September
30, 2008. By comparison, its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned
-11.10%. The broader market, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, returned
-10.87%. The portfolio's return reflects operating expenses, while the
indices' returns do not.

The volatile market environment described in the Market Perspective on page 2
hampered NT Large Company Value's absolute and relative performance. U.S.
equity indices were almost universally down for the six months. Value
outperformed growth-- except among mega-cap stocks (shares of especially large
companies, represented by the Russell Top 200 Index). NT Large Company Value
was slowed by its position in the financials sector and holdings among
utilities and consumer discretionary stocks. On the positive side, the
portfolio benefited from strong security selection in the information
technology and health care sectors.

FINANCIALS HINDERED PROGRESS

Even an underweight in financials-- the portfolio's largest source of relative
underperformance--was insufficient to protect NT Large Company Value from the
turmoil in the sector. Although we continue to be selective about portfolio
holdings, NT Large Company Value's complement of insurance stocks hampered
results. A top detractor was American International Group (AIG), the leading
U.S.-based international insurer. AIG's shares fell significantly after the
Federal Reserve stepped in to rescue the company from bankruptcy. We
eliminated the position during the reporting period.

Also slowing progress was a significant underweight in real estate investment
trusts (REITs), which boosted returns for the benchmark. We continued to limit
exposure to this segment because we believe REITs are overvalued relative to
their fundamentals.

UTILITIES, CONSUMER DISCRETIONARY DETRACTED

The portfolio's mix of electric utilities was a drag on relative performance.
A key detractor was Exelon, the nation's largest nuclear generator, which saw
its cost advantage over carbon-based generators decline as oil and gas prices
fell.

In consumer discretionary stocks, holdings in the media industry hampered
performance. The sector provided two key detractors--entertainment giant
Viacom and newspaper publisher Gannett Co. Both companies have been hurt by a
significant drop-off in advertising revenue.

NT Large Company Value

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY CONTRIBUTED

On the positive side, the portfolio benefited most from strong security
selection in the information technology sector, with most of the gains coming
from large leading software and technology companies. A significant holding
was computer and peripheral maker Hewlett-Packard, whose acquisition of
outsourcing giant Electronic Data Systems appears to offer a competitive
advantage and could add value through reorganization and cost-cutting efforts.
High-tech giant International Business Machines (IBM) reported strong earnings
from growth in its software and services divisions.

HEALTH CARE ADDED VALUE

Holdings in the health care sector contributed to results. During difficult
economic times or periods of stock market turbulence, investors often regard
consumer staples and health care stocks as lower-risk, defensive investments.
Moreover, our preference for large industry leaders proved advantageous as
many of these names outperformed.

Two notable contributors were Abbott Laboratories, which develops and
manufactures laboratory diagnostics, medical devices, and pharmaceutical
therapies, and Johnson & Johnson, the world's sixth-largest pharmaceutical
company and the maker of consumer health care products and medical devices and
diagnostics. Abbott reported strong sales across its entire product line,
including Humira (a drug that treats autoimmune diseases). Johnson & Johnson
raised its 2008 earnings-per-share forecast and announced strong sales of its
medical devices and consumer products.

OUTLOOK

We continue to be bottom-up investment managers, evaluating each company
individually and building the portfolio one stock at a time. NT Large Company
Value is broadly diversified, with ongoing overweight positions in the
information technology, energy, and industrials sectors. Our valuation work is
also directing us toward smaller relative weightings in financials and
utilities stocks. We are still finding greater value opportunities among
mega-cap stocks and have maintained our bias toward these firms.

PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY
NT Mid Cap Value

Portfolio Managers: Kevin Toney, Michael Liss, and Phil Davidson

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

NT Mid Cap Value returned -1.27%* for the six months ended September 30, 2008.
The fund's benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index, returned -7.46%. Its
returns do not include operating expenses.

The volatile market environment described in the Market Perspective on page 2
hampered NT Mid Cap Value's absolute performance. However, on a relative
basis, the portfolio significantly outpaced the performance of its benchmark,
the Russell Midcap Value Index. NT Mid Cap Value outperformed because of
effective security selection and our continued emphasis on less-risky
businesses with sound balance sheets. The portfolio benefited most from its
positions in the utilities, consumer staples, and materials sectors. Its mix
of energy stocks hindered relative performance. The portfolio's complement of
international holdings also restrained performance.

ALLOCATION TO UTILITIES WAS A PLUS

NT Mid Cap Value's position in utilities was the largest contributor to
relative performance. Because of valuations and higher-risk business models,
we did not hold any independent power producers, which declined 57% in the
benchmark. Investors appear to have connected these companies to both the
credit crisis and the sharp drop in energy prices in the closing months of the
period.

Security selection, particularly among electric utilities, also boosted
results. A significant holding was Empire District Electric, which principally
provides electricity to customers in southwestern Missouri. By obtaining
regulatory approval to pass through most of its fuel and power costs to
ratepayers, Empire limited its exposure to rising commodity prices.

CONSUMER STAPLES ADDED VALUE

The portfolio's mix of consumer staples companies--particularly its food and
household products holdings--added positively to performance against the
benchmark. A top contributor was personal-care and paper-product manufacturer
Kimberly-Clark Corp., which benefited from cost cutting and price increases.
We believe the company's margins could improve if the cost of energy,
oil-based materials, and product distribution continue to decline.

NT Mid Cap Value

The consumer staples sector was also the source of an international detractor,
Maple Leaf Foods. A leading food processor headquartered in Toronto, Canada,
Maple Leaf experienced a setback when many of its products were linked to a
harmful strain of listeria, a food-borne bacteria.

MATERIALS CONTRIBUTED

In materials, an overweight position and security selection added to results.
A top performer was Bemis Co., one of the portfolio's top holdings. Bemis, a
major producer of flexible packaging, primarily for the food industry,
reported improved sales volume and should benefit from lower resin input
costs. Another notable contributor was Rohm and Haas, a specialty chemical
company. Its stock rose on the news that it would be acquired at a substantial
premium by Dow Chemical.

ENERGY POSITION HAMPERED RESULTS

The portfolio's complement of energy stocks slowed relative performance. The
sector also provided a significant detractor, Equitable Resources, which is an
integrated energy company engaged in Appalachian-region natural gas
activities, including production, gathering and processing, distribution,
transmission, storage, and marketing. Despite its strong resource base,
Equitable's prospects dimmed as natural gas prices fell and its access to
capital was restricted by tight credit conditions, which may hinder its
ability to execute its growth plans.

OUTLOOK

We continue to follow our disciplined, bottom-up process, selecting companies
one at a time for the portfolio. We see opportunities in consumer staples,
utilities, materials, and industrials stocks, reflected by overweight
positions in these sectors, relative to the benchmark. Our fundamental
analysis and valuation work are also directing us toward smaller relative
weightings in financials, consumer discretionary, and energy stocks.

SHAREHOLDER FEE EXAMPLES (UNAUDITED)

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs,
including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption/exchange
fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and
service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This example is intended to
help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund
and to compare these costs with the ongoing cost of investing in other mutual
funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the
period and held for the entire period from April 1, 2008 to September 30, 2008.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses
for each class. You may use the information, together with the amount you
invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. First,
identify the share class you own. Then 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 under the heading "Expenses Paid During
Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

If you hold Investor Class shares of any American Century Investments fund, or
Institutional Class shares of the American Century Diversified Bond Fund, in
an American Century Investments account (i.e., not a financial intermediary or
retirement plan account), American Century Investments may charge you a $12.50
semiannual account maintenance fee if the value of those shares is less than
$10,000. We will redeem shares automatically in one of your accounts to pay
the $12.50 fee. In determining your total eligible investment amount, we will
include your investments in all PERSONAL ACCOUNTS (including American Century
Investments Brokerage accounts) registered under your Social Security number.
PERSONAL ACCOUNTS include individual accounts, joint accounts, UGMA/UTMA
accounts, personal trusts, Coverdell Education Savings Accounts and IRAs
(including traditional, Roth, Rollover, SEP-, SARSEP- and SIMPLE-IRAs), and
certain other retirement accounts. If you have only business, business
retirement, employer-sponsored or American Century Investments Brokerage
accounts, you are currently not subject to this fee. We will not charge the
fee as long as you choose to manage your accounts exclusively online. If you
are subject to the Account Maintenance Fee, your account value could be
reduced by the fee amount.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The table also provides information about hypothetical account values and
hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio of each class of your
fund and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is
not the actual return of a fund's share class. 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 your fund and other funds. To do so, compare
this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in
the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your
ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales
charges (loads) or redemption/exchange fees. Therefore, 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION -- American Century Capital Portfolios, Inc. (the corporation) is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) as an
open-end management investment company. NT Large Company Value Fund (NT Large
Company Value) and NT Mid Cap Value Fund (NT Mid Cap Value) (collectively, the
funds) are two funds in a series issued by the corporation. The funds are
diversified under the 1940 Act. The funds' investment objective is to seek
long-term capital growth. Income is a secondary objective. The funds pursue
their investment objective by investing in stocks of companies that management
believes to be undervalued at the time of purchase. NT Large Company Value
invests primarily in companies with larger market capitalization. NT Mid Cap
Value invests in mid-sized market capitalization companies. The funds are not
permitted to invest in any securities issued by companies assigned the Global
Industry Classification Standard for the tobacco industry. The following is a
summary of the funds' significant accounting policies.

SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Securities traded primarily on a principal securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price, or at the mean of the
latest bid and asked prices where no last sales price is available. Depending
on local convention or regulation, securities traded over-the-counter are
valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices, the last sales price,
or the official close price. Debt securities not traded on a principal
securities exchange are valued through a commercial pricing service or at the
mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. Discount notes may be valued
through a commercial pricing service or at amortized cost, which approximates
fair value. Securities traded on foreign securities exchanges and
over-the-counter markets are normally completed before the close of business
on days that the New York Stock Exchange (the Exchange) is open and may also
take place on days when the Exchange is not open. If an event occurs after the
value of a security was established but before the net asset value per share
was determined that was likely to materially change the net asset value, that
security would be valued as determined in accordance with procedures adopted
by the Board of Directors. If the funds determine that the market price of a
portfolio security is not readily available, or that the valuation methods
mentioned above do not reflect the security's fair value, such security is
valued as determined by the Board of Directors or its designee, in accordance
with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors, if such determination would
materially impact a fund's net asset value. Certain other circumstances may
cause the funds to use alternative procedures to value a security such as: a
security has been declared in default; trading in a security has been halted
during the trading day; or there is a foreign market holiday and no trading
will commence.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- For financial reporting purposes, security
transactions are accounted for as of the trade date. Net realized gains and
losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is also used for
federal income tax purposes.

INVESTMENT INCOME -- Dividend income less foreign taxes withheld, if any, is
recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions received on securities that
represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of
cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The funds estimate the
components of distributions received that may be considered nontaxable
distributions or capital gain distributions for income tax purposes. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts
and amortization of premiums.

EXCHANGE TRADED FUNDS -- The funds may invest in exchange traded funds (ETFs).
ETFs are a type of index fund bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF
trades like common stock and represents a fixed portfolio of securities
designed to track the performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic
or foreign market index. A fund may purchase an ETF to temporarily gain
exposure to a portion of the U.S. or a foreign market while awaiting purchase
of underlying securities. The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the
risks of owning the underlying securities they are designed to track, although
the lack of liquidity on an ETF could result in it being more volatile.
Additionally, ETFs have management fees, which increase their cost.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS -- All assets and liabilities initially
expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at prevailing
exchange rates at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities,
dividend and interest income, and certain expenses are translated at the rates
of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. For
assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, net realized and
unrealized gains and losses from foreign currency translations arise from
changes in currency exchange rates.


------
20


Net realized and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses
occurring during the holding period of investment securities are a component
of realized gain (loss) on investment transactions and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investments, respectively. Certain countries may impose
taxes on the contract amount of purchases and sales of foreign currency
contracts in their currency. The funds record the foreign tax expense, if any,
as a reduction to the net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency
transactions.

FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS -- The funds may enter into
forward foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions of
securities denominated in a foreign currency or to hedge the funds' exposure
to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. The net U.S. dollar value of
foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by the funds and
the resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation are determined daily
using prevailing exchange rates. The funds bear the risk of an unfavorable
change in the foreign currency exchange rate underlying the forward contract.
Additionally, losses may arise if the counterparties do not perform under the
contract terms.

FUTURES CONTRACTS -- The funds may enter into futures contracts in order to
manage the funds' exposure to changes in market conditions. One of the risks
of entering into futures contracts is the possibility that the change in value
of the contract may not correlate with the changes in value of the underlying
securities. Upon entering into a futures contract, the funds are required to
deposit either cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage
of the contract value (initial margin). Subsequent payments (variation margin)
are made or received daily, in cash, by the funds. The variation margin is
equal to the daily change in the contract value and is recorded as unrealized
gains and losses. The funds recognize a realized gain or loss when the
contract is closed or expires. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses
occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are a component of
realized gain (loss) on futures transactions and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on futures, respectively.

SECURITIES ON LOAN -- The funds may lend portfolio securities through their
lending agent to certain approved borrowers in order to earn additional
income. The income earned, net of any rebates or fees, is included in the
Statement of Operations. The funds continue to recognize any gain or loss in
the market price of the securities loaned and record any interest earned or
dividends declared.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The funds may enter into repurchase agreements with
institutions that American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM) (the
investment advisor) has determined are creditworthy pursuant to criteria
adopted by the Board of Directors. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at
cost. Each fund requires that the collateral, represented by securities,
received in a repurchase transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
manner sufficient to enable each fund to obtain those securities in the event
of a default under the repurchase agreement. ACIM monitors, on a daily basis,
the securities transferred to ensure the value, including accrued interest, of
the securities under each repurchase agreement is equal to or greater than
amounts owed to each fund under each repurchase agreement.

JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT -- Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, each fund, along with other registered
investment companies having management agreements with ACIM or American
Century Global Investment Management, Inc. (ACGIM), may transfer uninvested
cash balances into a joint trading account. These balances are invested in one
or more repurchase agreements that are collateralized by U.S. Treasury or
Agency obligations.

INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is each fund's policy to distribute substantially all
net investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise
qualify as a regulated investment company under provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. The funds have adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Income Taxes" during
the current fiscal year. All tax years for the funds remain subject to
examination by tax authorities. At this time, management believes there are no
uncertain tax positions which, based on their technical merit, would not be
sustained upon examination and for which it is reasonably possible that the
total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the
next twelve months. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or
state income taxes. Interest and penalties associated with any federal or
state income tax obligations, if any, are recorded as interest expense.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net investment income are declared
and paid quarterly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are
generally declared and paid annually.


------
21


INDEMNIFICATIONS -- Under the corporation's organizational documents, its
officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out
of the performance of their duties to the funds. In addition, in the normal
course of business, the funds enter into contracts that provide general
indemnifications. The funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is
unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the
funds. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered by management
to be remote.

USE OF ESTIMATES -- The financial statements are prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
which may require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the
date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.

2. FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

MANAGEMENT FEES -- The corporation has entered into a Management Agreement
with ACIM, under which ACIM provides the funds with investment advisory and
management services in exchange for a single, unified management fee (the
fee). The Agreement provides that all expenses of the funds, except brokerage
commissions, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of those directors who are not
considered "interested persons" as defined in the 1940 Act (including counsel
fees) and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The fee is computed
and accrued daily based on the daily net assets of each fund and paid monthly
in arrears. For funds with a stepped fee schedule, the rate of the fee is
determined by applying a fee rate calculation formula. This formula takes into
account all of the investment advisor's assets under management in each fund's
investment strategy (strategy assets) to calculate the appropriate fee rate
for each fund. The strategy assets include each fund's assets and the assets
of other clients of the investment advisor that are not in the American
Century Investments family of funds, but that have the same investment team
and investment strategy. The annual management fee schedule for NT Large
Company Value ranges from 0.50% to 0.70%. The effective annual management fee
for NT Large Company Value for the six months ended September 30, 2008 was
0.62%. The annual management fee for NT Mid Cap Value is 0.80%.

RELATED PARTIES -- Certain officers and directors of the corporation are also
officers and/or directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of
American Century Companies, Inc. (ACC), the parent of the corporation's
investment advisor, ACIM, the distributor of the corporation, American Century
Investment Services, Inc., and the corporation's transfer agent, American
Century Services, LLC. The funds are wholly owned, in aggregate, by various
funds in a series issued by American Century Asset Allocation Portfolios, Inc.
(ACAAP). ACAAP does not invest in the funds for the purpose of exercising
management or control.

The funds are eligible to invest in a money market fund for temporary
purposes, which is managed by J.P. Morgan Investment Management, Inc. (JPMIM).
JPMIM is a wholly owned subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM). JPM is an
equity investor in ACC. The funds have a securities lending agreement with
JPMorgan Chase Bank (JPMCB). JPMCB is a custodian of the funds and a wholly
owned subsidiary of JPM.

3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Investment transactions, excluding short-term investments, for the six months
ended September 30, 2008, were as follows:

                         NT Large Company Value   NT Mid Cap Value
Purchases                      $35,778,994           $44,445,847
Proceeds from sales            $14,861,287           $40,084,150

4. SECURITIES LENDING

As of September 30, 2008, the funds did not have any securities on loan. JPMCB
receives and maintains collateral in the form of cash and/or acceptable
securities as approved by ACIM. Cash collateral is invested in authorized
investments by the lending agent in a pooled account. The value of cash
collateral received at period end is disclosed in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities and investments made with the cash by the lending agent are listed
in the Schedule of Investments. Any deficiencies or excess of collateral must
be delivered or transferred by the member firms no later than the close of
business on the next business day. The funds' risks in securities lending are
that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or
return the securities when due. If the borrower defaults, receipt of the
collateral by the funds may be delayed or limited.

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The funds' securities valuation process is based on several considerations and
may use multiple inputs to determine the fair value of the positions held by
the funds. In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, the inputs used to determine a valuation are
classified into three broad levels as follows:

* Level 1 valuation inputs consist of actual quoted prices based on an active
market;

* Level 2 valuation inputs consist of significant direct or indirect
observable market data; or

* Level 3 valuation inputs consist of significant unobservable inputs such as
the fund's own assumptions.

The level classification is based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair valuation measurement. The valuation inputs are not an
indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities or other
financial instruments.

The following is a summary of the valuation inputs used to determine the fair
value of the funds' securities and other financial instruments as of September
30, 2008:

                                 Value of Investment     Unrealized Gain (Loss) on

*Includes forward foreign currency exchange contracts and futures contracts.

6. BANK LINE OF CREDIT

The funds, along with certain other funds managed by ACIM or ACGIM, have a
$500,000,000 unsecured bank line of credit agreement with Bank of America,
N.A. The funds may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes to fund
shareholder redemptions. Borrowings under the agreement, which is subject to
annual renewal, bear interest at the Federal Funds rate plus 0.40%. The funds
did not borrow from the line during the six months ended September 30, 2008.

7. RISK FACTORS

There are certain risks involved in investing in foreign securities. These
risks include those resulting from future adverse political, social, and
economic developments, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the possible
imposition of exchange controls, and other foreign laws or restrictions.

8. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The book-basis 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. These differences reflect
the differing character of certain income items and net realized gains and
losses for financial statement and tax purposes, and may result in
reclassification among certain capital accounts on the financial statements.

As of September 30, 2008, the components of investments for federal income tax
purposes were as follows:

                                                          NT Large
                                                           Company      NT Mid Cap
                                                             Value           Value

Federal tax cost of investments                       $117,979,414     $52,435,699
                                                     =============    ============
Gross tax appreciation of investments                   $4,396,371      $1,425,974
Gross tax depreciation of investments                 (18,245,780)     (5,630,623)
                                                     -------------    ------------
Net tax appreciation (depreciation) of
investments                                          $(13,849,409)    $(4,204,649)
                                                     =============    ============

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis cost and unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of
losses on wash sales.

As of March 31, 2008, NT Large Company Value and NT Mid Cap Value had
$(117,578) and $(2,443,256) of capital loss deferrals, respectively. These
deferrals represent net capital losses incurred in the five-month period ended
March 31, 2008. The funds have elected to treat such losses as having been
incurred in the following fiscal year for federal income tax purposes.

9. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Financials Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (FAS 157), in
September 2006, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value and expands the required financial statement disclosures about fair
value measurements. The adoption of FAS 157 does not materially impact the
determination of fair value.

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (FAS 161). FAS 161 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161 amends and expands
disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. FAS 161
requires qualitative disclosures about the objectives and strategies of
derivative instruments, quantitative disclosures about the fair value amounts
of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures of
credit-risk-related contingent features in hedging activities. Management is
currently evaluating the impact that adopting FAS 161 will have on the
financial statement disclosures.

APPROVAL OF MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS
NT Large Company Value and NT Mid Cap Value

Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act, contracts for investment
advisory services are required to be reviewed, evaluated and approved by a
majority of a fund's independent directors or trustees (the "Directors") each
year. At American Century Investments, this process is referred to as the
"15(c) Process." As a part of this process, the board reviews fund
performance, shareholder services, audit and compliance information, and a
variety of other reports from the advisor concerning fund operations. In
addition to this annual review, the board of directors oversees and evaluates
on a continuous basis at its quarterly meetings the nature and quality of
significant services performed by the advisor, fund performance, audit and
compliance information, and a variety of other reports relating to fund
operations. The board, or committees of the board, also holds special meetings
as needed.

Under a Securities and Exchange Commission rule, each fund is required to
disclose in its annual or semiannual report, as appropriate, the material
factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the board's approval or
renewal of any advisory agreements within the fund's most recently completed
fiscal half-year period.

ANNUAL CONTRACT REVIEW PROCESS

As part of the annual 15(c) Process undertaken during the most recent fiscal
half-year period, the Directors reviewed extensive data and information
compiled by the advisor and certain independent providers of evaluative data
(the "15(c) Providers") concerning NT Large Company Value and NT Mid Cap Value
(the "funds") and the services provided to the funds under the management
agreement. The information considered and the discussions held at the meetings
included, but were not limited to:

* the nature, extent and quality of investment management, shareholder
services and other services provided to the funds;

* reports on the wide range of programs and services the advisor provides to
the funds and its shareholders on a routine and non-routine basis;

* information about the compliance policies, procedures, and regulatory
experience of the advisor;

* data comparing the cost of owning the funds to the cost of owning similar
funds;

* data comparing the funds' performance to appropriate benchmarks and/or a
peer group of other mutual funds with similar investment objectives and
strategies;

* financial data showing the profitability of the funds to the advisor and the
overall profitability of the advisor; and

* data comparing services provided and charges to other investment management
clients of the advisor.

In keeping with its practice, the funds' board of directors held two in-person
meetings and one telephonic meeting to review and discuss the information
provided. The board also had the benefit of the advice of its independent
counsel throughout the period.

FACTORS CONSIDERED

The Directors considered all of the information provided by the advisor, the
15(c) Providers, and the board's independent counsel, and evaluated such
information for each fund for which the board has responsibility. In
connection with their review of


------
27


the fund, the Directors did not identify any single factor as being
all-important or controlling, and each Director may have attributed different
levels of importance to different factors. In deciding to renew the management
agreement under the terms ultimately determined by the board to be
appropriate, the Directors' decision was based on the following factors.

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES -- GENERALLY. Under the management
agreement, the advisor is responsible for providing or arranging for all
services necessary for the operation of the funds. The board noted that under
the management agreement, the advisor provides or arranges at its own expense
a wide variety of services including:

* fund construction and design

* portfolio security selection

* initial capitalization/funding

* securities trading

* custody of fund assets

* daily valuation of the funds' portfolio

* shareholder servicing and transfer agency, including shareholder
confirmations, recordkeeping and communications

* legal services

* regulatory and portfolio compliance

* financial reporting

* marketing and distribution

The Directors noted that many of the services provided by the advisor have
expanded over time both in terms of quantity and complexity in response to
shareholder demands, competition in the industry and the changing regulatory
environment. In performing their evaluation, the Directors considered
information received in connection with the annual review, as well as
information provided on an ongoing basis at their regularly scheduled board
and committee meetings.

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES. The nature of the investment management
services provided to the funds is quite complex and allows fund shareholders
access to professional money management, instant diversification of their
investments and liquidity. In evaluating investment performance, the board
expects the advisor to manage the funds in accordance with its investment
objectives and approved strategies. In providing these services, the advisor
utilizes teams of investment professionals (portfolio managers, analysts,
research assistants, and securities traders) who require extensive information
technology, research, training, compliance and other systems to conduct their
business. At each quarterly meeting the Directors review investment
performance information for the funds, together with comparative information
for appropriate benchmarks and peer groups of funds managed similarly to the
funds. The Directors also review detailed performance information during the
15(c) Process comparing the funds' performance with that of similar funds not
managed by the


------
28


advisor. If performance concerns are identified, the Directors discuss with
the advisor the reasons for such results (e.g., market conditions, security
selection) and any efforts being undertaken to improve performance. NT Mid Cap
Value's performance was above the median for its peer group for the three-year
period and below the median for the one-year period. NT Large Company Value's
performance fell below the median for its peer group for both the one- and
three-year periods during the past year. The board discussed the fund's
performance with the advisor and was satisfied with the efforts being
undertaken by the advisor. The board will continue to monitor these efforts
and the performance of the fund. More detailed information about the funds'
performance can be found in the PERFORMANCE and PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY sections
of this report.

SHAREHOLDER AND OTHER SERVICES. The advisor provides the funds with a
comprehensive package of transfer agency, shareholder, and other services. The
Directors review reports and evaluations of such services at their regular
quarterly meetings, including the annual meeting concerning contract review,
and reports to the board. These reports include, but are not limited to,
information regarding the operational efficiency and accuracy of the
shareholder and transfer agency services provided, staffing levels,
shareholder satisfaction (as measured by external as well as internal
sources), technology support, new products and services offered to fund
shareholders, securities trading activities, portfolio valuation services,
auditing services, and legal and operational compliance activities. Certain
aspects of shareholder and transfer agency service level efficiency and the
quality of securities trading activities are measured by independent third
party providers and are presented in comparison to other fund groups not
managed by the advisor.

COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED AND PROFITABILITY. The advisor provides detailed
information concerning its cost of providing various services to the funds,
its profitability in managing the funds, its overall profitability, and its
financial condition. The Directors have reviewed with the advisor the
methodology used to prepare this financial information. This financial
information regarding the advisor is considered in order to evaluate the
advisor's financial condition, its ability to continue to provide services
under the management agreement, and the reasonableness of the current
management fee. The board concluded that the advisor's profits were reasonable
in light of the services provided to the funds.

ETHICS. The Directors generally consider the advisor's commitment to providing
quality services to shareholders and to conducting its business ethically.
They noted that the advisor's practices generally meet or exceed industry best
practices.

ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Directors review reports provided by the advisor on
economies of scale for the complex as a whole and the year-over-year changes
in revenue, costs, and profitability. The Directors concluded that economies
of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision, especially on a
fund-by-fund basis. This analysis is also complicated by the additional
services and content provided by the advisor and its reinvestment in its
ability to provide and expand those services. Accordingly, the Directors also
seek to evaluate economies of scale by reviewing other information, such as
year-over-year profitability of the advisor generally, the profitability of
its management of the funds specifically, the expenses incurred by the advisor
in providing various functions to the funds, and the fees of competitive funds
not managed by the advisor. The Directors believe the advisor is appropriately
sharing economies of scale through its competitive fee structure, fee
breakpoints as the funds increase in size, and through reinvestment in its
business to provide shareholders additional content and services.

COMPARISON TO OTHER FUNDS' FEES. The funds pay the advisor a single,
all-inclusive (or unified) management fee for providing all services necessary
for the management and operation of the funds, other than brokerage expenses,
taxes, interest, extraordinary expenses, and the fees and expenses of the
funds' independent directors (including their independent legal counsel).
Under the unified fee structure, the advisor is responsible for providing all
investment advisory, custody, audit, administrative, compliance,
recordkeeping, marketing and shareholder services, or arranging and
supervising third parties to provide such services. By contrast, most other
funds are charged a variety of fees, including an investment advisory fee, a
transfer agency fee, an administrative fee, distribution charges and other
expenses. Other than their investment advisory fees and Rule 12b-1
distribution fees, all other components of the total fees charged by these
other funds may be increased without shareholder approval. The board believes
the unified fee structure is a benefit to fund shareholders because it clearly
discloses to shareholders the cost of owning fund shares, and, since the
unified fee cannot be increased without a vote of fund shareholders, it shifts
to the advisor the risk of increased costs of operating the fund and provides
a direct incentive to minimize administrative inefficiencies. Part of the
Directors' analysis of fee levels involves reviewing certain evaluative data
compiled by a 15(c) Provider comparing the fund's unified fee to the total
expense ratio of other funds in the fund's peer group. The unified fee charged
to shareholders of each of the funds was below the median of the total expense
ratios of their respective peer groups. The board concluded that the
management fee paid by the funds to the advisor was reasonable in light of the
services provided to the funds.

COMPARISON TO FEES AND SERVICES PROVIDED TO OTHER CLIENTS OF THE ADVISOR. The
Directors also requested and received information from the advisor concerning
the nature of the services, fees, and profitability of its advisory services
to advisory clients other than the funds. They observed that these varying
types of client accounts require different services and involve different
regulatory and entrepreneurial risks than the management of the funds. The
Directors analyzed this information and concluded that the fees charged and
services provided to the funds were reasonable by comparison.

COLLATERAL BENEFITS DERIVED BY THE ADVISOR. The Directors reviewed information
from the advisor concerning collateral benefits it receives as a result of its
relationship with the funds. They concluded that the advisor's primary
business is managing mutual funds and it generally does not use the fund or
shareholder information to generate profits in other lines of business, and
therefore does not derive any significant collateral benefits from them. The
Directors noted that the advisor receives proprietary research from
broker-dealers that execute fund portfolio transactions and concluded that
this research is likely to benefit fund shareholders. The Directors also
determined that the advisor is able to provide investment management services
to certain clients other than the funds, at least in part, due to its existing
infrastructure built to serve the fund complex. The Directors concluded,
however, that the assets of those other clients are not material to the
analysis and, in any event, are included with the assets of the fund to
determine breakpoints in the funds' fee schedule, provided they are managed
using the same investment team and strategy.

CONCLUSIONS OF THE DIRECTORS

As a result of this process, the board, including all of the independent
directors, in the absence of particular circumstances and assisted by the
advice of legal counsel that is independent of the advisor, taking into
account all of the factors discussed above and the information provided by the
advisor concluded that the investment management agreement between the funds
and the advisor is fair and reasonable in light of the services provided and
should be renewed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

RETIREMENT ACCOUNT INFORMATION

As required by law, any distributions you receive from an IRA or certain
403(b), 457 and qualified plans [those not eligible for rollover to an IRA or
to another qualified plan] are subject to federal income tax withholding,
unless you elect not to have withholding apply. Tax will be withheld on the
total amount withdrawn even though you may be receiving amounts that are not
subject to withholding, such as nondeductible contributions. In such case,
excess amounts of withholding could occur. You may adjust your withholding
election so that a greater or lesser amount will be withheld.

If you don't want us to withhold on this amount, you must notify us to not
withhold the federal income tax. Even if you plan to roll over the amount you
withdraw to another tax-deferred account, the withholding rate still applies
to the withdrawn amount unless we have received notice not to withhold federal
income tax prior to the withdrawal. You may notify us in writing or in certain
situations by telephone or through other electronic means. You have the right
to revoke your withholding election at any time and any election you make may
remain in effect until revoked by filing a new election.

Remember, even if you elect not to have income tax withheld, you are liable
for paying income tax on the taxable portion of your withdrawal. If you elect
not to have income tax withheld or you don't have enough income tax withheld,
you may be responsible for payment of estimated tax. You may incur penalties
under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments
are not sufficient.

State tax will be withheld if, at the time of your distribution, your address
is within one of the mandatory withholding states and you have federal income
tax withheld. State taxes will be withheld from your distribution in
accordance with the respective state rules.
