                                 ANNUAL REPORT
                                  MAY 31, 1999

Dear Shareholders:

It is with great satisfaction that we report to you a very successful first year
of operations for the Badgley Funds. Since the inception of the funds on June
25, 1998, the funds have grown from $1.4 million to their current level of $23.0
million. This growth occurred in an extremely volatile global market
environment. Throughout most of 1998 and early 1999, Asia was mired in a severe
recession, Russia's economy collapsed and Brazil suffered from a serious
currency crisis. These markets have since rebounded, alleviating some of the
pressure on the U.S. economy.

Meanwhile, the U.S. economy continued to operate at healthy levels during the
fiscal year. Interest rates hit a historical low as the 30-year Treasury fell to
4.72% in October. Rates have since risen by more than one percentage point;
however, from a historical perspective, they continue to be low. Unemployment is
also very healthy, and at the end of May was a mere 4.2%. The last time
unemployment was at this level was in February of 1970. Inflation, as measured
by the consumer price index, remains well contained and recently measured in at
an annual rate of 2.1%. Finally, the U.S. government has been running a net
surplus for the last two years and projections indicate a surplus of
approximately $110 billion for the 1999 calendar year.

The equities in both the Growth Fund and the Balanced Fund benefited from the
strong economy in the United States. The consumer cyclical and technology
sectors did particularly well. Our consumer cyclical stocks, such as Home Depot,
Inc. and Costco Companies, Inc., benefited from the "wealth effect," as many
consumers saw their equity investments increase in value and became more
confident in their financial position. This phenomenon, coupled with low
unemployment, has had a positive effect on consumer spending.

The significant outperformance of several of our technology holdings (Cisco
Systems, Inc., Microsoft Corp., Intel Corp. and Hewlett-Packard Co.) was driven
by solid fundamentals as businesses worldwide spent heavily on information
systems to become more efficient. This may potentially have a compounding effect
over time, as an efficient company has the ability to increase cash flows more
rapidly, which may then be used to purchase more technological investments. In
addition, the explosive growth in the Internet continues to provide new avenues
of growth for all of our technology companies. We continue to invest in the
companies that provide the infrastructure and products that facilitate the use
and growth of the Internet rather than the many start-ups that have come to
market recently with high valuations and speculative business strategies.

The healthcare sector underperformed as investors attempted to filter through
all of the possible changes in the delivery of healthcare as mandated by the
federal government. Potential changes in the Medicare program could
substantially alter the profitability of this industry. We currently maintain a
below-market weighting in this sector while we evaluate the industry's prospects
going forward.

The fixed income markets experienced tremendous volatility during the first year
of the Balanced Fund. Interest rates during that time ranged from a historical
low of 4.72% to slightly above 6% -- its current level. Despite this increase in
interest rates, the bonds in the fund managed to post positive returns. The
volatility began last fall when the Federal Reserve cut short-term rates by 75
basis points in response to the extraordinary dislocation that was taking place
in the financial markets. Prior to this crisis, the Fed had a "tightening bias"
toward interest rates as the economy exhibited evidence of strong growth.
Volatility emerged as the bond market was challenged to decipher whether the
lowering of interest rates would prevent a

                                        1

recession that could occur due to ailing overseas economies, or if the easing
would exacerbate the already strong economy and ignite inflationary pressures
down the road.

As we entered 1999, it became increasingly evident that the world was gaining
stability and the economy was showing no signs of slowing. Interest rates began
to reverse their course and gained over a full percentage point by the end of
May. Although the recent trend in long-term interest rates has been up, Federal
Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan recently reiterated the Fed's commitment to
remain vigilant on the inflation front. This should help the bond market resume
its confidence that the Federal Reserve will be able to continue its seven-year
run of nurturing a growing economy with little or no inflation and should
thereby be able to maintain relatively low interest rate levels.

As you know, we do not attempt to predict the direction of the market; rather,
we buy stocks and bonds that have strong fundamentals and long term value.
Regardless of the direction of the economy over the next 12 months, we will work
diligently to invest your assets in the best companies in the U.S. economy.

We thank you for investing in the Badgley Funds, and look forward to serving you
in the future. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to call us toll

Sincerely,

THIS CHART ASSUMES AN INITIAL GROSS INVESTMENT OF $25,000 MADE ON 6/25/98
(COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS). RETURNS SHOWN INCLUDE THE REINVESTMENT OF ALL
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. IN THE ABSENCE OF FEE WAIVERS AND REIMBURSEMENTS,
TOTAL RETURN WOULD BE REDUCED. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT PREDICTIVE OF FUTURE
PERFORMANCE. INVESTMENT RETURN AND PRINCIPAL VALUE WILL FLUCTUATE, SO THAT YOUR
SHARES, WHEN REDEEMED, MAY BE WORTH MORE OR LESS THAN THE ORIGINAL COST.

                                  MAY 31, 1999

1. ORGANIZATION

   Badgley Funds, Inc. (the "Corporation") was incorporated on April 28, 1998,
   as a Maryland Corporation and is registered as an open-end management
   investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Badgley
   Balanced Fund (the "Balanced Fund") and the Badgley Growth Fund (the "Growth
   Fund") (collectively referred to as the "Funds") are separate, diversified
   investment portfolios of the Corporation. The principal investment objective
   of the Balanced Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation and income.
   The principal investment objective of the Growth Fund is to seek long-term
   capital appreciation. A director of Badgley, Phelps and Bell, Inc. (the
   "Adviser") and a director of the Corporation each acquired 2,500 shares of
   the Balanced Fund capital stock and shares of the Growth Fund capital stock
   at $10 per share on June 10, 1998. The Funds commenced operations on June 25,
   1998.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
   followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These
   policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

   a) Investment Valuation -- Common stocks, other equity-type securities and
      fixed income securities with a maturity greater than 60 days are valued at
      the last sales price on the national securities exchange on which such
      securities are primarily traded. Securities traded on a national
      securities exchange for which there were no transactions on a given day
      and securities not listed on a national securities exchange are valued at
      the average of the most recent bid and asked prices. Any securities or
      other assets for which market quotations are not readily available are
      valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors
      of the Corporation. Instruments with a remaining maturity of 60 days or
      less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

   b) Federal Income Taxes -- No provision for federal income taxes has been
      made since the Funds have complied to date with the provisions of the
      Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and
      intend to continue to so comply in future years and to distribute
      investment company net taxable income and net realized gains to
      shareholders.

   c) Income and Expenses -- The Funds are charged for those expenses that are
      directly attributable to each portfolio, such as advisory, administration
      and certain shareholder service fees. Expenses that are not directly
      attributable to a portfolio are typically allocated among the Funds in
      proportion to their respective net assets, number of shareholder accounts
      or net sales, where applicable.

   d) Distributions to Shareholders -- Dividends from net investment income of
      the Balanced Fund are declared and paid quarterly. Dividends from net
      investment income of the Growth Fund are declared and paid annually. The
      Funds' net realized capital gains, if any, will be distributed at least
      annually.

   e) Organizational Costs -- The costs incurred in connection with the
      organization, initial registration and public offering of shares,
      aggregating $26,461 for both the Balanced Fund and Growth Fund, have been
      paid by the Funds. These costs are being amortized over the period of
      benefit, but not to exceed sixty months from the Funds' commencement of
      operations.

   f) Use of Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
      with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
      estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
      financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

                                  MAY 31, 1999

   g) Other -- Investment and shareholder transactions are recorded on trade
     date. The Funds determine the gain or loss realized from the investment
     transactions by comparing the original cost of the security lot sold with
     the net sales proceeds. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend
     date, and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Generally
     accepted accounting principles require that permanent financial reporting
     and tax differences be reclassified among the capital accounts.

5. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

   The Corporation has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Agreement") with
   the Adviser with whom certain officers and Directors of the Corporation are
   affiliated, to furnish investment advisory services to the Funds. Under the
   terms of the Agreement, the Corporation, on behalf of the Funds, compensates
   the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 0.90% of the
   Balanced Fund's average daily net assets and 1.00% of the Growth Fund's
   average daily net assets. The advisory fee is accrued daily and paid monthly.

   From June 25, 1998 (commencement of operations) until June 30, 1999, the
   Adviser has agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse the Funds'
   other expenses to the extent necessary to ensure that the Balanced Fund's
   total operating expense did not exceed 1.30% of its average daily net assets
   and that the Growth Fund's total operating expenses did not exceed 1.50% of
   its average daily net assets. Any such waiver or reimbursement is subject to
   later adjustment during the term of the Agreement to allow the Adviser to
   recoup amounts waived or reimbursed to the extent actual fees and expenses
   for a period are less than the expense limitation caps, provided, however,
   that the Adviser shall only be entitled to recoup such amounts for a period
   of three years from the date such amount was waived or reimbursed. For the
   period ended May 31, 1999, the Adviser waived/reimbursed expenses of $149,440
   and $145,364 for the Balanced Fund and Growth Fund, respectively. The Adviser
   intends to continue to waive its management fee and/or reimburse the Funds'
   other expenses to the extent necessary to ensure that the Balanced Fund's and
   Growth Fund's total operating expenses do not exceed 1.30% and 1.50%,
   respectively, of their respective average daily net assets until May 31,
   2000.

   The Corporation, on behalf of each of the Funds, has adopted a plan pursuant
   to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the "12b-1 Plan"), which authorizes it to
   pay Rafferty Capital Markets, Inc. (the "Distributor") a distribution and
   shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of each Fund's average daily net assets
   (computed on an annual basis). All or a portion of the fee may be used by the
   Distributor to pay costs of printing reports and prospectuses for potential
   investors and the costs of other distribution and shareholder servicing
   expenses. During the period ended May 31, 1999, the Balanced Fund and Growth
   Fund incurred expenses of $14,784 and $7,859, respectively, pursuant to the
   plan.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Badgley Funds, Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Badgley Balanced Fund and the
Badgley Growth Fund (constituting Badgley Funds, Inc., hereafter referred to as
the "Funds") at May 31, 1999, the results of each of their operations, the
changes in each of their net assets and the financial highlights for the period
from June 25, 1998 (commencement of operations) to May 31, 1999, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities owned at May 31, 1999 by
correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.
