Government Securities Fund

DEAR SHAREHOLDER:

We are pleased to provide you with the Annual Report which includes the 
portfolio of investments for Smith Barney Government Securities Fund for the 
fiscal year ended December 31, 1994.

            It was a politically eventful year both here and abroad. 
Interwoven with the ebb and flow of these political events was the Federal 
Reserve Board's assessment of and reaction to the potential impact of a 
strong economy on the rate of inflation. As a reminder of how extraordinary a 
year 1994 really was, we have taken this opportunity to briefly chronicle 
some of the more noteworthy moments that influenced the global financial 
markets and our investment decisions.

                     military troops are sent in.

December 7           Robert Rubin is selected to succeed the retiring Lloyd 
                     Bentsen as Secretary of Treasury.

In the shadow of these events, interest rates proceeded on a record climb not 
seen in 50 years. The yield on one-year Treasury bills doubled while at the 
other end of the maturity spectrum the yield on 30-year Treasury bonds rose 
by 25%. As the table below shows, interest rates rose on securities of all 
maturities.

During the difficult environment of the past year, the use and perils of 
financial derivatives (particularly mortgaged based) come to light. In a 
rising interest rate environment, the ability to sell (known technically as 
"liquidity") an investment become crucial. Unfortunately, many derivatives 
securities lack liquidity, which resulted during the past year in numerous 
and often large financial losses to investors.

PORTFOLIO STRATEGY

The Fund is managed in a very straightforward, uncomplicated fashion which 
emphasizes non-derivative, liquid securities and strategies. Early in 1994, 
we believed that income would be the greatest component of total return to 
the Fund's shareholders and that minimizing the erosion of their principal 
would be the most crucial investment challenge. As a result, we invested the 
majority of the portfolio in mortgage securities that had coupons higher than 
the then-current market rate and kept a small part of the portfolio in 
Treasury notes with maturities of five to ten years. As interest rates rose, 
the negative impact on the Fund's portfolio was not as great as it would have 
been had we been invested in securities with lower yields. The Fund's average 
maturity at the end of this fiscal year was approximately nine years.

However, the investment strategies employed resulted in a return of capital 
of $0.07 for Class A, Class B and Class C shares. This was primarily the 
result of a higher-than-anticipated level of prepayments in the Fund's 
mortgage-backed security holdings. Tax rules require that losses realized on 
prepayments be treated as a reduction of the Fund's net investment income. We 
believe that the risk of prepayments associated with higher coupon mortgage 
securities was preferable to the lower income and greater potential market 
risk presented by a portfolio of Treasury securities and/or lower coupon 
mortgage securities. This return of capital, which has been reported to you 
in your year-end tax statement, reduces the tax cost of your Fund shares. 
Over the life of your investment, your economic result will be the same: 
lower taxable income now will be offset by a higher gain/reduced loss when 
you sell your Fund shares in the future.

Although it is not explicitly stated in the prospectus, the Fund's policy is 
to pay a level monthly dividend based on our projections for the government 
securities market and the general direction of interest rates. This policy 
has no appreciable impact on the Fund's investment strategies or total return 
per share since it is guided by market conditions. We are currently 
evaluating our existing dividend levels based on our projections for the 
government securities market in 1995.

At this juncture, we believe that interest rates will decline, particularly 
on maturities of five years and longer. This decline will be prompted by 
clear signs of a moderating economy and a deficit reduction program emanating 
from Washington. Although we anticipate a decline in interest rates, we do 
not believe that they will decline to the remarkably low level reached in 
1993. We will continue to invest the portfolio in high quality securities 
that have the liquidity necessary to react to a changing market.

We appreciate your confidence during the difficult investment environment of 
1994, and join you in looking forward to a more benign 1995. Should you have 
any questions about your investment in the Fund or how other Smith Barney 
mutual funds may help you reach your financial goals, please speak with your 
Smith Barney Financial Consultant.

Sincerely,


/s/Heath B. McLendon                            /s/James E. Conroy

** All average annual total return figures shown reflect the reinvestment of
   dividends and capital gains distributions at net asset value. The Fund waived
   fees during fiscal year 1993. A shareholder's actual return for the period
   during which waivers were in effect would be the higher return within the two
   categories shown.

***Average annual total return figures shown assume the deduction of the 
   maximum 4.50% sales charge.

Note: The Fund began offering Class A shares on November 6, 1992. Class A 
shares may be subject to a maximum 4.50% front-end sales charge and are 
subject to an annual service fee of 0.25% of the value of the average daily 
net assets attributable to that class.

The Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index is an unmanaged, broad-based index
of all public debt obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies and
has an average maturity of approximately nine years. The index is useful in
depicting the general movement of the government securities market, but
because it is unmanaged the index is not subject to the same management and
trading expenses as a mutual fund.

The Lipper General U.S. Government Peer Group Average is composed of the
Fund's peer group of 174 mutual funds investing in U.S. government securities
as of December 31, 1994.

Index information is available at month-end only; therefore, the closest 
month-end to inception date of the Fund has been used.

NOTE: All figures cited here represent past performance and do not guarantee 
future results of Class A shares.

 ** All average annual total return figures shown reflect the reinvestment of
    dividends and capital gains at net asset value. The Fund's investment
    adviser waived fees from January 1988 to December 1989 and during fiscal
    year 1993. A shareholder's actual return for the period during which waivers
    were in effect would be the higher return within the two categories shown.
*** Average annual total return figures shown assume the deduction of 
    the applicable CDSC. 
/+/ Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after
    date of the original purchase. Thus, a shareholder's actual return for the
    ten years ended December 31, 1994 would be different than that reflected
    above.
Note: On November 6, 1992, outstanding shares of the Fund were designated 
Class B shares. Class B shares are subject to a maximum 4.50% CDSC and annual 
service and distribution fees of 0.25% and 0.50%, respectively, of the value 
of the average daily net assets attributable to that class.

The Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index is an unmanaged, broad-based index 
of all public debt obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies and 
has an average maturity of approximately nine years. The index is useful in 
depicting the general movement of the government securities market, but 
because it is unmanaged, the index is not subject to the same management and 
trading expenses as a mutual fund.

U.S. Treasury Securities are debt obligations of the United States government.
They are secured by the full faith and credit of the federal government, and
include such instruments as Treasury notes, bills and bonds.

U.S. Government Agency Securities are securities issued by government 
sponsored corporations like the Federal Land Banks or the Student Loan 
Marketing Association (SLMA). Mortgage-Backed Securities are also agency 
securities, but are shown separately in this chart and described below.

Mortgage-Backed Securities are debt securities issued by U.S. government 
agencies such as the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), Federal 
National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and Government National Mortgage 
Association (GNMA). They represent thousands of individual home mortgages 
that are pooled to form securities. As homeowners pay interest and principal 
each month, these payments are passed on to investors. Mortgage-Backed 
Securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the issuing agency.

1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc. (the "Company") (formerly known as Smith
Barney Shearson Investment Funds Inc.) was incorporated in Maryland on 
September 29, 1981 and commenced operations on January 4, 1982. The Company is
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified open-end
management investment company. As of the date of this report, the Company is
composed of four managed investment funds (the "Funds"): Smith Barney Investment
Grade Bond Fund, Smith Barney Government Securities Fund (the "Fund"), Smith
Barney Special Equities Fund and Smith Barney European Fund. Effective November
7, 1994, the Fund began offering Class Y shares and continued to offer Class A,
Class B and Class C shares (Class C shares were previously designated "Class D"
shares). As of December 31, 1994, no Class Y shares have been sold. Class A
shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. Class B and Class C shares may be
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") upon redemption. Class B
shares will convert automatically to Class A shares eight years after the
original purchase date. Class Y shares are available to investors making an
initial investment of at least $5 million and are not subject to any sales
charges, distribution or service fees. All classes of shares have identical
rights and privileges except with respect to the effect of the respective sales
charges to each class, the distribution and/or service fees borne by each class,
expenses allocable exclusively to each class, voting rights on matters affecting
a single class, the exchange privilege of each class and the conversion feature
of Class B shares. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements.

Portfolio valuation: Securities listed on an exchange are valued on the basis 
of the last sale prior to the time the valuation is made. If there has been 
no sale since the previous valuation, then the current bid price is used. 
Over-the-counter securities are valued on the basis of the bid price at the 
close of business on each day. Notwithstanding the above, bonds and other 
fixed-income securities are valued by using market quotations and may be 
valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service, when the Board of
Directors believes that such prices reflect the market value of such 
securities. In cases where securities are traded on more than one exchange, 
the securities are valued on the exchange designated by or under the 
authority of the Board of Directors as the primary market. Securities and 
assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at 
fair value as determined in good faith by or under the 

                                                                              21

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
direction of the Board of Directors. Options are generally valued at the last
sale price or, in the absence of a last sale price, the last bid price. Short-
term instruments maturing within 60 days of the valuation date are valued at
amortized cost.

Futures Contracts: The Fund may enter into futures contracts. The Fund's 
futures transactions will be entered into for hedging purposes to protect 
against a decline in the price of securities that the Fund owns, or to 
protect the Fund against an increase in the price of securities it is 
committed to purchase.

Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with 
the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents equal to a certain 
percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the "initial margin." 
Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund 
each day, depending on the daily fluctuation of the value of the contract.

For financial statement purposes, an amount equal to the settlement amount of 
the contract is included in its Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an 
asset and as an equivalent liability. For long futures positions, the asset 
is marked-to-market daily. For short futures positions, the liability is 
marked-to-market daily. The daily changes in the contract are recorded as 
unrealized gains or losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when 
the contract is closed.

There are several risks in connection with the use of futures contracts as a
hedging device. The change in value of futures contracts primarily corresponds
with the value of their underlying instruments, which may not correlate with the
change in value of the hedged instruments. In addition, there is the risk the
Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid
secondary market.

Option contracts: Upon the purchase of a put option or a call option by the
Fund, the premium paid is recorded as an investment, the value of which is
marked-to-market daily. When a purchased option expires, the Fund will realize a
loss in the amount of the cost of the option. When the Fund enters into a
closing sale transaction, the Fund will realize a gain or loss depending on
whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less
than the cost of the option. When the Fund exercises a put option, it will
realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds
from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. When the Fund


22
<PAGE>

Smith Barney
Government Securities Fund
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
exercises a call option, the cost of the security which the Fund purchases upon
exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid.

When a Fund writes a call option or a put option, an amount equal to the 
premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability, the value of which 
is marked-to-market daily. When a written option expires, the Fund realizes a 
gain equal to the amount of the premium received. When the Fund enters into a 
closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost 
of the closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the 
option was sold) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the 
underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. 
When a call option is exercised, the Fund realizes a gain or loss from the 
sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale are increased 
by the premium originally received. When a put option is exercised, the 
amount of the premium originally received will reduce the cost of the 
security which the Fund purchased upon exercise.

The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium 
originally paid. The risk in writing a call option is the Fund may forego the 
opportunity of profit if the market price of the underlying security 
increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is 
that the Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the underlying security 
decreases and the option is exercised. In addition, there is the risk the 
Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an 
illiquid secondary market.

Options on futures contracts: Options on futures generally operate in the 
same manner as options purchased or written directly on the underlying debt 
securities. The Fund is required to deposit, in a manner similar to futures 
contracts, "initial margin" and "variation margin" with respect to put and 
call options written on futures contracts. In addition, upon exercise, net 
premiums received will decrease the unrealized loss or increase the 
unrealized gain on the future. The potential risk to the Fund is that the 
change in value of the underlying securities may not correlate to the change 
in value of the contracts.

Repurchase agreements: The Fund engages in repurchase agreement transactions. 
Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Fund takes possession 
of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to 
repurchase, and the Fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price 
and time, thereby determining the yield during the Fund's holding period. 
This 

                                                                              23

arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that is not subject to 
market fluctuations during the Fund's holding period. The value of the 
collateral is at least equal at all times to the total amount of the 
repurchase obligations, including interest. In the event of counterparty 
default, the Fund has the right to use the collateral to offset losses 
incurred. There is a potential loss to the Fund in the event the Fund is 
delayed or prevented from exercising its rights to dispose of the collateral 
securities including the risk of a possible decline in the value of the 
underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its 
rights. The Fund's investment adviser, administrator or sub-administrator, 
acting under the supervision of the Board of Directors, reviews the value of 
the collateral and the creditworthiness of those banks and dealers with which 
the Fund enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.

Reverse repurchase agreements: The Fund may enter into reverse repurchase 
agreement transactions with member banks on the Federal Reserve Bank of New 
York's list of reporting dealers for leverage purposes. A reverse repurchase 
agreement involves a sale by the Fund of securities that it holds with an 
agreement by the Fund to repurchase the same securities at an agreed upon 
price and date. A reverse repurchase agreement involves the risk that the 
market value of the securities sold by the Fund may decline below the 
repurchase price of the securities. In the event the buyer of securities 
under a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes 
insolvent, the Fund's use of the proceeds of the agreement may be restricted 
pending a determination by the party, or its trustee or receiver, whether to 
enforce the Fund's obligation to repurchase the securities. The Fund will 
establish a segregated account with its custodian, Boston Safe Deposit and 
Trust Company ("Boston Safe"), in which the Fund will maintain cash, U.S. 
government securities or other liquid high grade debt obligations equal in 
value to its obligations with respect to reverse repurchase agreements.

Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are 
recorded as of the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend 
date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and 
losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated 
based upon the relative net assets of each class.

Dividends and distributions to shareholders: Distributions from net 
investment income are determined on a class level and will be declared daily 
and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized capital gains, after 
utilization of capital

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

loss carryforwards, are determined on a Fund level and will be distributed at
least annually. Net short-term capital gains (including, any short-term capital
gains from options transactions) may be paid more frequently, with the
distribution of dividends from net investment income. Additional distributions
of net investment income and capital gains may be made at the discretion of the
Board of Directors to avoid the application of the excise tax imposed under the
Code for certain undistributed amounts. Income distributions and capital gain
distributions on a Fund level are determined in accordance with income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains
on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and
differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund as a whole.
Permanent differences incurred during the Fund's fiscal year resulting from
different book and tax accounting for certain debt securities have been
reclassified from income to capital gains. Permanent differences incurred during
the Fund's fiscal year resulting from overdistributions of income are
reclassified to paid-in capital at year end.

Federal income taxes: The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated 
investment company, if such qualification is in the best interest of its 
shareholders, by complying with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code 
of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to 
distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. 
Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required.

2.  INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT, ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT AND OTHER 
    TRANSACTIONS

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory 
Agreement") with a division of Mutual Management Corp., which has been 
transferred effective November 7, 1994 to Smith Barney Mutual Funds 
Management Inc. ("SBMFM"). Mutual Management Corp. and SBMFM are both wholly 
owned subsidiaries of Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"). Holdings is a 
wholly owned subsidiary of The Travelers Inc. Under the Advisory Agreement, 
the Fund pays a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.35% of the value of its 
average daily net assets up to $2 billion, 0.30% of the value of the average 
daily net assets of the next $2 billion, 0.25% of the value of its average 
daily net assets on the next $2 billion, 0.20% of the value of average daily 
net assets of the next $2 billion and 0.15% of the value of its average daily 
net assets thereafter.

                                                                              25

Prior to May 5, 1994, the Fund was party to an administration agreement (the 
"Administration Agreement") with The Boston Company Advisors, Inc. ("Boston 
Advisors") an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank Corporation 
("Mellon"). Under this agreement, the Fund paid a monthly fee at an annual 
rate of 0.20% of the value of its average daily net assets.

As of the close of business on May 5, 1994, SBMFM (formerly known as "Smith,
Barney Advisers, Inc.") succeeded Boston Advisors as the Fund's administrator.
The new administration agreement contains substantially the same terms and
conditions, including the level of fees as the predecessor agreement.

As of the close of business on May 5, 1994, the Fund and SBMFM entered into a 
sub-administration agreement (the "Sub-Administration Agreement") with Boston 
Advisors. Under the Sub-Administration Agreement, SBMFM pays Boston Advisors 
a portion of its administration fee at a rate agreed upon from time to time 
between SBMFM and Boston Advisors.

For the year ended December 31, 1994, Smith Barney Inc. ("Smith Barney") 
received $66,217 from investors representing commissions (sales charges) on 
sales of Class A shares.

A CDSC is generally payable by a shareholder in connection with the 
redemption of Class B shares within five years (eight years in the case of 
certain 401(k) plans) after the date of purchase. In circumstances in which 
the charge is imposed, the amount of the charge ranges between 4.50% and 
1.00% of net asset value depending on the number of years since the date of 
purchase (except in the case of purchases by certain 401(k) plans in which 
case a 3.00% charge is imposed for the eight year period after the date of 
the purchase). A CDSC may be payable by a shareholder in connection with the 
redemption of Class C shares within one year after the date of purchase. In 
circumstances in which the charge is imposed, the amount of the charge is 
1.00% of net asset value. For the year ended December 31, 1994, Smith Barney 
received $629,700 representing CDSCs on the redemption of Class B shares.

No officer, director or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates 
receives any compensation from the Company for serving as an officer or 
director of the Company. The Company pays each Director who is not an 
officer, director or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates 
$16,000 per annum plus $2,500 per meeting attended and reimburses each such 
Director for travel and out-of-pocket-expenses.

Boston Safe, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon, serves as the 
Fund's custodian. The Shareholder Services Group, Inc., a subsidiary of First 
Data Corporation, serves as the Fund's transfer agent. 

3.  DISTRIBUTION PLAN

Smith Barney acts as distributor of the Fund's shares pursuant to a 
distribution agreement with the Company and sells shares of the Fund through 
Smith Barney or its affiliates.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted a services 
and distribution plan (the "Plan"). Under this Plan, the Company compensates 
Smith Barney for servicing shareholder accounts for Class A, Class B and 
Class C shareholders, and covers expenses incurred in distributing Class B 
and Class C shares. Smith Barney is paid an annual services fee with respect 
to Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund at the rate of 0.25% of 
the value of the average daily net assets of each respective class of shares. 
Smith Barney is also paid an annual distribution fee with respect to Class B 
and Class C shares at the rates of 0.50% and 0.45%, respectively, of the 
value of the average daily net assets of that class. For the year ended 
December 31, 1994, the Fund paid service fees of $334,848, $1,505,763 and 
$967 for Class A, Class B and Class C shares, respectively. For the year 
ended December 31, 1994, the Fund paid distribution fees of $3,011,526 and 
$1,893 for Class B and Class C shares, respectively.

Under its terms, the Plan shall remain in effect from year to year, provided 
that such continuance is approved annually by vote of the Company's 
Directors, including a majority of those Directors who are not "interested 
persons" of the Company and who have no direct or indirect financial interest 
in the operation of the Plan.

4.  EXPENSE ALLOCATION

Expenses of the Fund not directly attributable to the operations of any class 
of shares are prorated among the classes based upon the relative net assets 
of each class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a class of shares 
are charged to that class' operations. In addition to the above service and 
distribution fees, class specific operating expenses include the transfer 
agent fees. For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund paid transfer 
agent fees of $153,524, $588,525 and $351 for Class A, Class B and Class C 
shares, respectively.

                                                                              27

5.  SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of U.S. government securities,
excluding short-term investments, aggregated $2,076,332,228 and $2,207,734,351,
respectively, for the year ended December 31, 1994.

At December 31, 1994, aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all 
securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost was 
$4,449,541, and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities in 
which there was an excess of tax cost over value was $7,662,082.

Information regarding borrowing by the Fund under reverse repurchase 
agreements is as follows: At December 31, 1994, the Fund had no outstanding 
borrowings under reverse repurchase agreements. The maximum amount 
outstanding during the period was $256,750,000 and the average amount 
outstanding during the period was $68,617,107. The average amount  
outstanding during the period was calculated by summing borrowings at the end 
of each day and dividing the sum by the number of days in the year ended 
December 31, 1994. Interest rates ranged from 0.875% to 4.500% during the 
year ended December 31, 1994. Interest paid for the year ended December 31, 
1994, on borrowings by the Fund under reverse repurchase agreements 
aggregated $1,866,218.

6.  SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
As of December 31, 1994, the Company had authorized on behalf of the Fund 
capital of 2.35 billion shares of $.001 par value common stock. The shares 
are divided by the Fund into four classes of shares, Class A, Class B, Class 
C and Class Y.

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
SMITH BARNEY GOVERNMENT SECURITIES FUND OF
SMITH BARNEY INVESTMENT FUNDS INC.:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Smith 
Barney Government Securities Fund of Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc. 
(formerly Smith Barney Shearson Government Securities Fund of Smith Barney 
Shearson Investment Funds Inc.), including the schedule of portfolio 
investments, as of December 31, 1994, and the related statement of operations 
for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of

of the six years in the period then ended. These financial statements and 
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and 
financial highlights based on our audits. 

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and 
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes 
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures 
in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of 
securities owned as of December 31, 1994 by correspondence with the custodian 
and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used 
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the 
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide 
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

SMITH BARNEY INVESTMENT GRADE BOND FUND 

DECEMBER 31, 1994 

DEAR SHAREHOLDER: 

We are pleased to provide you with the Annual Report which includes the 
portfolio of investments for Smith Barney Investment Grade Bond Fund for 
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994. 

The year 1994 was characterized by relatively strong economic growth, a 
stock market in which gains were minimal, and a dramatic rise in both 
short-term and long-term interest rates. To further complicate an analysis 
of the year, the Consumer Price Index, which measures inflation, was lower 
in 1994 than in 1993. Even more incredible was the fact that corporate 
profits rose dramatically without generating significantly higher stock 
prices. 

Is there no good news left for investors? Has the financial community lost 
its collective perspective? Even more perplexing, is what will happen in 
the years ahead as investors re-examine their investment objectives and 
financial plans. 

Let us try to give you our insights as we move forward in the 1990s. 

First and foremost, our investment philosophy and investment strategy have 
not changed. True investment decisions and returns are a multi-year propo- 
sition and the element of time will help to level the peaks and valleys. 

Secondly, a great deal of market actions are based on perceptions and 
opinions about the future. They are not necessarily reactions to current 
events. 

Third -- and very important -- is the realization that trends and powerful 
forces exert their influence for a long period of time. 

It is our belief that the actions taken by the Federal Reserve Board in 
1994 -- raising short-term interest rates -- was the right monetary policy 
decision. We believe they acted in a timely fashion with the proper amount 
of restraint. We are in complete agreement that it is extremely important 
to be vigilant in preventing a resurgence in inflation and, more impor- 
tantly, to reassure long-term fixed income investors that the Fed's re- 
solve is not subject to political pressures. 

We would take this opportunity to reaffirm our long-term positive outlook 
for the fixed income markets. We remain fully invested in long-term secu- 
rities with an average maturity of 26 years and an average credit rating 
of single-A because it remains our belief that the long-term trend in his- 
torically low levels of inflation remains in place. It is this trend which 
ultimately determines long- term interest rates. Ancillary factors includ- 
ing a competitive global economy, improvements in United States manufac- 
turing productivity and a reduction in our Federal budget deficit will 
contribute to keeping this trend in place. 

DIVIDEND POLICY 

Although not explicitly stated in the prospectus, the Fund's policy is to 
pay a level monthly dividend based on our projections for the corporate 
bond market and the general direction of interest rates. This policy has 
no appreciable affect on the Fund's investment strategies or net asset 
value per share since it is guided by market conditions. It means that we 
do not invest in more speculative securities that may undermine the 
Funds's net asset value per share in order to maintain an unrealistically 
high dividend policy. We continually monitor both the market and the 
Fund's income stream to see that our dividend projections are realistic. 

We appreciate your confidence during the difficult investment environment 
of 1994, and join you in looking forward to a more benign 1995. Should you 
have any questions about your investment in the Fund or how other Smith 
Barney mutual funds may be useful in helping you reach your financial 
goals, please speak with your Smith Barney Financial Consultant. 

Sincerely, 

Heath B. McLendon 
Chairman of the Board 
and Investment Officer

  THE LEHMAN BROTHERS LONG-TERM CORPORATE BOND INDEX is an unmanaged index 
  comprised of all publicly issued, fixed rate, nonconvertible, dollar- 
  denominated investment-grade corporate debt. The average maturity of the 
  bonds in this index is approximately 23 years and includes bonds from a 
  diverse range of industries. Because it is unmanged, the Lehman Brothers 
  Long-Term Corporate Bond Index is not subject to the same management and 
  trading expenses as a mutual fund. 

  THE LIPPER CORPORATE DEBT A-RATED AVERAGE is composed of the Fund's peer 
  group of 75 mutual funds as of December 31, 1994. 
  Index information is available at month-end only; therefore, the closest 
  month-end to inception date of the Fund has been used. 

  NOTE: All figures cited here represent past performance and do not 
  guarantee future results.

   annualized ratio including interest expense was 1.04% for the period 
   ended December 31, 1992.

                      NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT 

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc. (the "Company") (formerly known as 
Smith Barney Shearson Investment Funds Inc.) was incorporated in Maryland 
on September 29, 1981 and commenced operations on January 4, 1982. The 
Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under 
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a di- 
versified, open-end management investment company. As of the date of this 
report, the Company is composed of four managed investment funds (the 
"Funds"): Smith Barney Investment Grade Bond Fund (the "Fund"), Smith Bar- 
ney Government Securities Fund, Smith Barney Special Equities Fund and 
Smith Barney European Fund. Effective November 7, 1994, the Fund began of- 
fering Class Y shares and continued to offer Class A, Class B and Class C 
shares (Class C shares were previously designated "Class D" shares). As of 
December 31, 1994, no Class Y shares had been sold. Class A shares are 
sold with a front-end sales charge. Class B and Class C shares may be sub- 
ject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") upon redemption. Class 
B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after 
the original purchase date. Class Y shares are available to investors mak- 
ing an initial investment of at least $5 million and are not subject to 
any sales charges, distribution or service fees. All classes of shares 
have identical rights and privileges except with respect to the effect of 
the respective sales charges to each class, the distribution and/or ser- 
vice fees borne by each class, expenses allocable exclusively to each 
class, voting rights on matters affecting a single class, the exchange 
privilege of each class and the conversion feature of Class B shares. The 
following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently 
followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. 

Portfolio valuation: Securities listed on an exchange are valued on the 
basis of the last sale prior to the time the valuation is made. If there 
has been no sale since the previous valuation, then the current bid price 
is used. Over-the-counter securities are valued on the basis of the bid 
price at the close of business on each day. Notwithstanding the above, 
bonds and other fixed-income securities are valued by using market quota- 
tions and may be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing ser- 
vice, when the Board of Directors believes that such prices reflect the 
market value of such securities. In cases where securities are traded on 
more than one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange desig- 
nated by or under the authority of the Board of Directors as the primary 
market. Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily 
available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under 
the direction of the Board of Directors. Money market instruments maturing 
within 60 days of the valuation date are valued at amortized cost. 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund engages in repurchase agreement transac- 
tions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Fund takes 
possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of 
the seller to repurchase, and the Fund to resell, the obligation at an 
agreed- upon price and time, thereby determining the yield during the 
Fund's holding period. This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return 
that is not subject to market fluctuations during the Fund's holding pe- 
riod. The value of the collateral is at least equal at all times to the 
total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. In the 
event of counterparty default, the Fund has the right to use the collat- 
eral to offset losses incurred. There is a potential loss to the Fund in 
the event the Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its rights to 
dispose of the collateral securities including the risk of a possible de- 
cline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while 
the Fund seeks to assert its rights. The Fund's investment adviser, admin- 
istrator or sub-administrator acting under the supervision of the Board of 
Directors, reviews the value of the collateral and the creditworthiness of 
those banks and dealers with which the Fund enters into repurchase agree- 
ments to evaluate potential risks. 

Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions 
are recorded as of the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex- 
dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized 
gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identi- 
fied cost basis. Investment income and realized and unrealized gains and 
losses are allocated based upon the relative net assets of each class of 
shares. 

Dividends and distributions to shareholders: Distributions from net in- 
vestment income, if any, are determined on a class level and will be de- 
clared daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized capital 
gains, after utilization of capital loss carryforwards, are determined on 
a Fund level and will be distributed at least annually. Net short-term 
capital gains may be paid more frequently, with the distribution of divi- 
dends from net investment income. Additional distributions of net invest- 
ment income and capital gains may be made at the discretion of the Board 
of Directors to avoid application of a 4% nondeductible excise tax on cer- 
tain amounts of undistributed income and capital gains. Income distribu- 
tions and capital gain distributions on a Fund level are determined in ac- 
cordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally ac- 
cepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to 
differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities 
held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of 
distributions made by the Fund as a whole. 

Federal income taxes: The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regu- 
lated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interest of 
its shareholders, by complying with the requirements of the Internal Reve- 
nue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies 
and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its share- 
holders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. 

2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE, ADMINISTRATION FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS 

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory 
Agreement") with Greenwich Street Advisors, formerly a division of Mutual 
Management Corp., which has been transferred effective November 7, 1994 to 
Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"). Mutual Management 
Corp. and SBMFM are both wholly owned subsidiaries of Smith Barney Hold- 
ings Inc. ("Holdings"). Holdings is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Trav- 
elers Inc. Under the Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays a monthly fee at 
the annual rate of 0.45% of the value of its average daily net assets up 
to $500 million and 0.42% of the value of its average daily net assets in 
excess of $500 million. 

Prior to May 5, 1994, the Fund was party to an administration agreement 
with The Boston Company Advisors, Inc. ("Boston Advisors"), an indirect 
wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank Corporation ("Mellon"). Under this 
agreement, the Fund paid a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.20% of the 
value of its average daily net assets up to $500 million and 0.18% of the 
value of its average daily net assets in excess of $500 million. 

As of the close of business on May 5, 1994, SBMFM (formerly known as 
Smith, Barney Advisers, Inc.) succeeded Boston Advisors as the Fund's ad- 
ministrator. The new administration agreement contains substantially the 
same terms and conditions, including the level of fees, as the predecessor 
agreement. 

As of the close of business on May 5, 1994, the Fund and SBMFM entered 
into a sub-administration agreement (the "Sub-Administration Agreement") 
with Boston Advisors. Under the Sub-Administration Agreement, SBMFM pays 
Boston Advisors a portion of its administration fee at a rate agreed upon 
from time to time between SBMFM and Boston Advisors. 

For the year ended December 31, 1994, Smith Barney Inc. ("Smith Barney") 
received $114,571 from investors representing commissions (sales charges) 
on sales of Class A shares. 

A CDSC is generally payable by a shareholder in connection with the re- 
demption of Class B shares within five years (eight years in the case of 
certain 401(k) plans) after the date of purchase. In circumstances in 
which the charge is imposed, the amount of the charge ranges between 4.50% 
and 1.00% of net asset value depending on the number of years since the 
date of purchase (except in the case of purchases by certain 401(k) plans 
in which case a 3.00% charge is imposed for the eight year period after 
the date of the purchase). A CDSC may be payable by a shareholder in con- 
nection with the redemption of Class C shares within one year after the 
date of purchase. In circumstances in which the charge is imposed, the 
amount of the charge is 1.00% of net asset value. For the year ended 
December 31, 1994, Smith Barney received $556,007 from investors in CDSCs 
on the redemption of Class B shares. 

No officer, director or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates 
receives any compensation from the Company for serving as an officer or 
director of the Company. The Company pays each Director who is not an of- 
ficer, director or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates 
$16,000 per annum plus $2,500 per meeting attended and reimburses each 
such Director for travel and out-of-pocket-expenses. 

Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary 
of Mellon, serves as the Fund's custodian. The Shareholder Services Group, 
Inc., a subsidiary of First Data Corporation, serves as the Fund's trans- 
fer agent. 

3. DISTRIBUTION PLAN 

Smith Barney acts as distributor of the Fund's shares pursuant to a dis- 
tribution agreement with the Company, and sells shares of the Fund through 
Smith Barney or its affiliates. 

Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Company has adopted a ser- 
vices and distribution plan (the "Plan"). Under this Plan, the Company 
compensates Smith Barney for servicing shareholder accounts for Class A, 
Class B and Class C shareholders, and covers expenses incurred in distrib- 
uting Class B and Class C shares. Smith Barney is paid an annual service 
fee with respect to Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund at the 
rate of 0.25% of the value of the average daily net assets of each respec- 
tive class of shares. Smith Barney is also paid an annual distribution fee 
with respect to Class B and Class C shares at the rate of 0.50% and 0.45%, 
respectively, of the value of the average daily net assets attributable to 
those classes. For the year ended December 31, 1994, service fees for 
Class A, Class B and Class C shares were $147,152, $922,038 and $1,009, 
respectively. For the year ended December 31, 1994, distribution fees for 
Class B and Class C shares were $1,844,077 and $1,958, respectively. 

4. EXPENSE ALLOCATION 

Expenses of the Fund not directly attributable to the operations of any 
class of shares are prorated among the classes based upon the relative net 
assets of each class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a class 
of shares are charged to that class' operations. In addition to the above 
service and distribution fees, class specific operating expenses include 
the transfer agent fees. For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund 
paid transfer agent fees of $82,081, $381,528 and $483 for Class A, Class 
B and Class C shares, respectively. 

5. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS 

Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short- 
term investments, aggregated $75,583,712 and $87,942,501, respectively, 
for the year ended December 31, 1994. 

At December 31, 1994, aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all se- 
curities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost was 
$2,891,757 and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities 
in which there is an excess of tax cost over value was $44,421,149. 

6. SHARES OF COMMON STOCK 

At December 31, 1994, the Company had authorized on behalf of the Fund 
capital of 2.25 billion shares of $.001 par value common stock divided 
into four classes of shares, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y. 

Changes in common stock outstanding were as follows:

7. LINE OF CREDIT 

The Fund and several affiliated entities participate in a $50 million line 
of credit provided by Bank of America (formerly Continental Bank N.A.) 
under an Amended and Restated Line of Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") 
dated April 30, 1992 and renewed effective May 31, 1994, primarily for 
temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption re- 
quests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securi- 
ties. Under this Agreement, the Fund may borrow up to the lesser of $25 
million or 25% of its net assets, adjusted for purposes of the Agreement. 
However, pursuant to the Fund's prospectus, the Fund may only borrow up to 
5.00% of its total assets. Interest is payable either at the bank's Money 
Market Rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 0.375% on an 
annualized basis. Under the terms of the Agreement, as amended, the Fund 
and the other affiliated entities are charged an aggregate commitment fee 
of $100,000 which is allocated equally among each of the participants. The 
Agreement requires, among other provisions, each participating fund to 
maintain a ratio of net assets (not including funds borrowed pursuant to 
the Agreement) to aggregate amount of indebtedness pursuant to the Agree- 
ment of no less than 5 to 1. During the year ended December 31, 1994, the 
Fund had an average outstanding daily balance of $400,822 with interest 
rates ranging from 3.375% to 6.000%. Interest expense totalled $16,576 
which has been offset against interest income on the Statement of Opera- 
tions for the year ended December 31, 1994. At December 31, 1994, the Fund 
had no outstanding borrowings under this Agreement. 



                REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS 

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF 
SMITH BARNEY INVESTMENT GRADE BOND FUND OF 
SMITH BARNEY INVESTMENT FUNDS: 

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of 
Smith Barney Investment Grade Bond Fund of Smith Barney Investment Funds 
Inc. (formerly Smith Barney Shearson Investment Grade Bond Fund of Smith 
Barney Shearson Investment Funds Inc.), including the schedule of portfo- 
lio investments, as of December 31, 1994, and the related statement of op- 
erations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets 
for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial high- 
lights for each of the six years in the period then ended. These financial 
statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's 
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and fi- 
nancial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes 
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclo- 
sures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of 
securities owned as of December 31, 1994 by correspondence with the custo- 
dian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the over- 
all financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position

Special Equities Fund

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to provide you with the Annual Report which includes the 
portfolio of investments for Smith Barney Special Equities Fund for the 
fiscal year ended December 31, 1994.

The year 1994 was marked by strong economic expansion, excellent corporate 
profit growth, muted inflation and--paradoxically--disappointing performance 
by most stock market measures.  It was apparent that deepening concerns about 
the potential effects of the Federal Reserve Board's barrage of interest rate 
increases, coupled with the financial problems of Orange County, California, 
weighed heavily on investors' minds.

We believe, however, that 1995 will provide the equity markets with a far 
more hospitable environment than in 1994, especially within the small-cap 
area.  We anticipate that companies will continue to report 
better-than-expected earnings within a somewhat less ebullient economic 
landscape. While the future actions of the Fed are always unknown, we think 
that its major moves have already been made and that the markets already 
reflect most of the anticipated outcomes.  In short, it is our view that the 
inherent investment dynamics are now altered.  In 1994 it was important to be 
defensively positioned and to protect one's investment capital; in 1995, 
investors potentially could suffer an opportunity loss if money remains on 
the sidelines when the markets turn more positive.  We are not trying to 
diminish the short-term risks associated with this highly fluid marketplace, 
but our long-term optimism now considerably outweighs our concerns.

To conclude our summary of 1994, small-cap stocks underperformed the 
larger-cap indices.  The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Standard & 
Poor's 500 Stock Index, on a total return basis, finished the year up 5.02% 
and 1.31%, respectively, while the NASDAQ and the Russell 2000 indices were 
off 3.20% and 1.82%, respectively, on price only (excluding dividend 
reimbursements).

Furthermore, the divergence within the Russell 2000 (a popular measure of the 
stock price performance of small companies) was significant; the leader was 
the technology sector which finished the year up 11.88% while the real estate 
investment trust (REIT) and consumer discretionary sectors ended the year 
down 13.94% and 11.01%, respectively.  Due to the Fund's heavy investment in 
the consumer sector (a sector the Fund has favored for a number of years 
now), the year ended with disappointing results in relation to our full-cycle 
goals.

                                                                               1
<PAGE>
 
The small cap markets should benefit from the political and economic 
prospects we envision for 1995, which include a new Republican congressional 
agenda and a low inflationary-growth economy.  We continue to focus our 
investment attention on the ownership of good quality stocks with the intent 
of holding them for as long as their fundamental growth prospects remain 
intact.  Put another way, stock selection remains the most critical component 
of our overall investment process.

We appreciate your confidence during the difficult investment environment of 
1994, and join you in looking forward to a more benign 1995.  Should you have 
any questions about your investment in the Fund or how other Smith Barney 
mutual funds may help you reach your financial goals, please speak with your 
Smith Barney Financial Consultant.

Sincerely,

/s/ Heath B. McLendon                                    /s/ George V. Novello

  The Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index ("S&P 500") is a market capitalization
  index composed of 500 widely held common stocks listed on the New York Stock
  Exchange, American Stock Exchange and over-the-counter market. The S&P 500 is
  useful in depicting the general movement of the stock market, but because it
  is unmanaged, it is not subject to the same management and trading expenses
  as a mutual fund.
  
  Index information is available at month-end only; therefore, the closest 
  month-end to inception date of the Fund has been used.
  
  Note: All figures cited here represent past performance and do not 
  guarantee future results.

**   All average annual total return figures shown reflect the reinvestment of 
     dividends and capital gains at net asset value. The Fund's investment 
     adviser, sub-investment adviser and administrator reimbursed expenses
     during 1988. A shareholder's actual return for the period during which
     reimbursements were in effect would be the higher of the two numbers
     shown.
          
***  Average annual total return figures shown assume the deduction of the 
     maximum applicable CDSC which is described in the prospectus.

+    Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares eight years 
     after date of original purchase. Thus, a shareholder's actual return for
     the ten years ended December 31, 1994 would be different than that
     reflected above.

     Note: On November 6, 1992, existing shares of the Fund were designated 
     Class B shares. Class B shares are subject to a maximum 5.00% CDSC 
     and annual service and distribution fees of 0.25% and 0.75%, respectively, 
     of the value of the average daily net assets attributable to that class.

                                                                               5

   The Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index ("S&P 500") is a market capitalization
   index composed of 500 widely held common stocks listed on the New York Stock
   Exchange, American Stock Exchange and over-the-counter market. The S&P 500 is
   useful in depicting the general movement of the stock market, but because it
   is unmanaged, it is not subject to the same management and trading expenses
   as a mutual fund.

   Index information is available at month-end only; therefore, the closest 
   month-end to inception date of the Fund has been used.

   Note: All figures cited here represent past performance and do not  
   guarantee future results.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc. (the "Company") (formerly known as Smith
Barney Shearson Investment Funds Inc.) was incorporated in Maryland on 
September 29, 1981 and commenced operations on January 4, 1982. The Company is
registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified open-end
management investment company. As of the date of this report, the Company is
composed of four managed investment funds (the "Funds"): Smith Barney Investment
Grade Bond Fund, Smith Barney Government Securities Fund, Smith Barney Special
Equities Fund (the "Fund") and Smith Barney European Fund. Effective November 7,
1994, the Fund began offering Class Y shares and continued to offer Class A,
Class B and Class C shares (Class C shares were previously designated "Class D"
shares). As of December 31, 1994, no Class Y shares had been sold. Class A
shares are sold with a front-end sales charge. Class B and Class C shares may be
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") upon redemption. Class B
shares will automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after the
original purchase date. Class Y shares are available to investors making an
initial investment of at least $5 million and are not subject to any sales
charges, distribution or service fees. All classes of shares have identical
rights and privileges except with respect to the effect of the respective sales
charges to each class, the distribution and/or service fees borne by each class,
expenses allocable exclusively to each class, voting rights on matters affecting
a single class, the exchange privilege of each class and the conversion feature
of Class B shares. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements.

Portfolio valuation: Securities listed on an exchange are valued on the basis of
the last sale prior to the time the valuation is made. If there has been no sale
since the previous valuation, then the current bid price is used. Over-the-
counter securities are valued on the basis of the bid price at the close of
business on each day. Notwithstanding the above, bonds and other fixed-income
securities are valued by using market quotations and may be valued on the basis
of prices provided by a pricing service, when the Board of Directors believes
that such prices reflect the market value of such securities. In cases where
securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are valued on
the exchange designated by or under the authority of the Board of Directors as
the primary market. Securities and assets for which market quotations are not

Repurchase agreements: The Fund engages in repurchase agreement transactions.
Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Fund takes possession of
an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to
repurchase, and the Fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and
time, thereby determining the yield during the Fund's holding period. This
arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that is not subject to market
fluctuations during the Fund's holding period. The value of the collateral is at
least equal at all times to the total amount of the repurchase obligations,
including interest. In the event of counterparty default, the Fund has the right
to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. There is a potential loss to
the Fund in the event the Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its
rights to dispose of the collateral securities including the risk of a possible
decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the
Fund seeks to assert its rights. The Fund's investment adviser, administrator or
sub-administrator acting under the supervision of the Board of Directors,
reviews the value of the collateral and the creditworthiness of those banks and
dealers with which the Fund enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate
potential risks.

Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are
recorded as of the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and
losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
Investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated
based upon the relative net assets of each class of shares.

Dividends and distributions to shareholders: Distributions from net investment
income, if any, are determined on a class level and will be declared and paid at
least annually. Distributions from net realized capital gains, after utilization
of capital loss carryforwards, are determined on a Fund level and will be
distributed at least annually. Net short-term capital gains may be paid more
frequently, with the distribution of dividends from net investment income.
Additional distributions of net investment income and capital gains may be made
at the discretion of the Board of Directors to avoid the application of a 4%
nondeductible excise tax imposed on certain amounts of undistributed ordinary
income and capital gains. Income distributions and capital gain distributions on
a Fund level are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may
differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are
primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains

on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and
differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund as a whole.
Permanent differences incurred during the Fund's fiscal year resulting from the
acquisition of capital loss carryforwards have been reclassified to paid-in
capital at year end.

Federal income taxes: The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated
investment company, if such qualification is in the best interest of its
shareholders, by complying with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no
Federal income tax provision is required.

2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE, ADMINISTRATION FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory
Agreement") with Greenwich Street Advisors, formerly a division of Mutual
Management Corp., which has been transferred effective November 7, 1994 to Smith
Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"). Mutual Management Corp. and SBMFM
are both wholly owned subsidiaries of Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("Holdings").
Holdings is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Travelers Inc. Under the Advisory
Agreement, the Fund pays a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.55% of the value
of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Prior to May 5, 1994, the Fund was party to an administration agreement with 
The Boston Company Advisors, Inc. ("Boston Advisors"), an indirect wholly 
owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank Corporation ("Mellon"). Under this agreement, 
the Fund paid a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.20% of the value of its 
average daily net assets.

As of the close of business on May 5, 1994, SBMFM (formerly known as Smith, 
Barney Advisers, Inc.) succeeded Boston Advisors as the Fund's administrator. 
The new administration agreement contains substantially the same terms and 
conditions, including the level of fees, as the predecessor agreement.

As of the close of business on May 5, 1994, the Fund and SBMFM entered into a 
sub-administration agreement (the "Sub-Administration Agreement") with Boston 
Advisors. Under the Sub-Administration Agreement, SBMFM pays Boston Advisors 
a portion of its administration fee at a rate agreed upon from time to time 
between SBMFM and Boston Advisors.

                                                                              23

For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund incurred total brokerage
commissions of $217,269, of which $14,280 were paid to Smith Barney Inc. ("Smith
Barney").

For the year ended December 31, 1994, Smith Barney received $186,104 from
investors representing commissions (sales charges) on sales of Class A shares.

A CDSC is generally payable by a shareholder in connection with the redemption
of Class B shares within five years (eight years in the case of certain 401(k)
plans) after the date of purchase. In circumstances in which the charge is
imposed, the amount of the charge ranges between 5.00% and 1.00% of net asset
value depending on the number of years since the date of purchase (except in the
case of purchases by certain 401(k) plans in which case a 3% charge is imposed
for the eight year period after the date of the purchase). A CDSC may be payable
by a shareholder in connection with the redemption of Class C shares within one
year after the date of purchase. In circumstances in which the charge is
imposed, the amount of the charge is 1.00% of net asset value. For the year
ended December 31, 1994, Smith Barney received $288,013 from investors in CDSCs
on the redemption of Class B shares.

No officer, director or employee of Smith Barney or of its affiliates receives
any compensation from the Company for serving as an officer or director of the
Company. The Company pays each Director who is not an officer, director or
employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates $16,000 per annum plus $2,500
per meeting attended and reimburses each such Director for travel and out-of-
pocket-expenses.

Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of 
Mellon, serves as the Fund's custodian. The Shareholder Services Group, Inc., 
a subsidiary of First Data Corporation, serves as the Fund's transfer agent. 

3. DISTRIBUTION PLAN

Smith Barney acts as distributor of the Fund's shares pursuant to a distribution
agreement with the Company, and sells shares of the Fund through Smith Barney or
its affiliates.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted a services and
distribution plan (the "Plan"). Under this Plan, the Company compensates Smith
Barney for servicing shareholder accounts for Class A, Class B and Class C
shareholders, and covers expenses incurred in distributing Class B and Class C

24

shareholders, and covers expenses incurred in distributing Class B and Class C
shares. Smith Barney is paid an annual services fee with respect to Class A,
Class B and Class C shares of the Fund at the rate of 0.25% of the value of the
average daily net assets of each respective class of shares. Smith Barney is
also paid an annual distribution fee with respect to Class B and Class C shares
at the rate of 0.75% of the value of the average daily net assets attributable
to each respective class of shares. For the year ended December 31, 1994,
service fees for Class A, Class B and Class C shares were $147,488, $329,007 and
$1,975, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 1994, distribution fees
for Class B and Class C shares were $987,022 and $5,927, respectively.

4. EXPENSE ALLOCATION

Expenses of the Fund not directly attributable to the operations of any class 
of shares are prorated among the classes based upon the relative net assets 
of each class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a class of shares 
are charged to that class' operations. In addition to the above service and 
distribution fees, class specific operating expenses include the transfer 
agent fees. For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund paid transfer 
agent fees of $173,586, $342,973 and $1,616 for Class A, Class B and Class C 
shares, respectively. 

5. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term 
investments, aggregated $237,005,277 and $215,906,657, respectively, for the 
year ended December 31, 1994.

At December 31, 1994, aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all securities
in which there was an excess of value over tax cost was $42,133,143, and
aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities in which there was an
excess of tax cost over value was $10,237,878.

6. SHARES OF COMMON STOCK

At December 31, 1994, the Company had authorized on behalf of the Fund capital
of 3.15 billion shares of $.001 par value common stock divided into four classes
of shares, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y.

                                                                              25

7. LINE OF CREDIT

The Fund and several affiliated entities participate in a $50 million line of
credit provided by Bank of America (formerly Continental Bank N.A.), under an
Amended and Restated Line of Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") dated April 30,
1992, and renewed effective May 31, 1994, primarily for temporary or emergency
purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might
require the untimely disposition of securities. Under this Agreement, the Fund
may borrow up to the lesser of $25 million or 25% of its net assets, adjusted
for purposes of the Agreement. However, pursuant to the Fund's prospectus, the
Fund may only borrow up to 5.00% of its total assets. Interest is payable either
at the bank's Money Market Rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR)
plus 0.375% on an annualized basis. Under the terms of the Agreement, as
amended, the Fund and the other affiliated entities are charged an aggregate
commitment fee of $100,000 which is allocated equally among each of the
participants. The Agreement requires, among other provisions, each participating
fund to maintain a ratio of net assets (not including funds borrowed pursuant to
the Agreement) to aggregate amount of indebtedness pursuant to the Agreement of
no less than 5 to 1. During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund did not
borrow under the Agreement.

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF
SMITH BARNEY SPECIAL EQUITIES FUND OF
SMITH BARNEY INVESTMENT FUNDS INC.:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Smith
Barney Special Equities Fund of Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc. (formerly
Smith Barney Shearson Special Equities Fund of Smith Barney Shearson Investment
Funds Inc.), including the schedule of portfolio investments, as of December 31,
1994, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the
statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then
ended and the financial highlights for each of the six years in the period then
ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
December 31, 1994 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Smith
Barney Special Equities Fund of Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc. as of
December 31, 1994, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the
changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and
the financial highlights for each of the six years in the period then ended, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

CAPITAL GAIN (OR lOSS)   This is the increase (or decrease) in the market value
(price) of a security in your portfolio. If a stock or bond appreciates in
price, there is a capital gain; if it depreciates, there is a capital loss. A
capital gain or loss is "realized" upon the sale of a security; if net capital
gains exceed net capital losses, there may be a capital gain distribution to
shareholders.

CDSC (CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE)   One kind of back-end load, a CDSC is
imposed if shares are redeemed during the first few years of ownership. The CDSC
may be expressed as a percentage of either the original purchase price or the
redemption proceeds. Most CDSCs decline over time, and some will not be charged
if shares are redeemed after a certain period of time.

DISTRIBUTION RATE   This is the rate at which a mutual fund pays out (or
distributes) interest, dividends and realized capital gains to shareholders. A
fund's distribution rate is usually expressed as an annualized percent of the
fund's offering price.

DIVIDEND   This is income generated by securities in a portfolio and distributed
after expenses to shareholders.

FRONT-END SALES CHARGE   This is the sales charge applied to an investment at
the time of initial purchase.

NET ASSET VALUE (NAV)   Net Asset Value is the total market value of all
securities held by a fund, minus any liabilities, divided by the number of
shares outstanding. It is the value of a single share of a mutual fund on a
given day. The total value of your investment would by the NAV multiplied by the
number of shares you own.

SEC YIELD   This standardized calculation of a mutual fund's yield is based 
on a formula developed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to 
allow funds to be compared on an equal basis. It is an annualized yield based 
on the portfolio's potential earnings from dividends, interest and yield to 
maturity of its holdings, and it reflects the payments of all portfolio 
expenses for the most recent 30-day period. Mutual funds are required to use 
this figure when stating yield.

TOTAL RETURN   Total return measures a fund's performance, taking into account
the combination of dividends paid and the gain or loss in the value of the
securities held in the portfolio. It may be expressed on an average annual basis
or cumulative basis (total change over a given period). In addition, total
return may be expressed with or without the effects of sales charges or the
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.

Whenever a fund reports any type of performance, it must also report the average
annual total return according to the standardized calculation developed by the
SEC. The SEC average annual total return calculation includes the effects of all
fees and sales charges and assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and capital
gains.

                                                                              31

EUROPEAN FUND 

DEAR SHAREHOLDER: 

We are pleased to provide the annual report for Smith Barney European 
Fund. During the twelve months ended December 31, 1994, the net asset 
value per share of Class A and Class B shares of the Fund declined 2.42% 
and 3.13%, respectively, against an increase of 0.17% for Morgan Stanley 
Capital International European Index ("MSCI European Index"). 

On May 10, 1994, portfolio management of the Fund was assumed by Smith, 
Barney Advisers, Inc. The new portfolio management team has extensive ex- 
perience in global equity management with well over 125 years of experi- 
ence among the team's principals. The team employs a strategy focused on 
companies with strong earnings growth balanced by broad portfolio diversi- 
fication. They have repositioned the Fund's portfolio more in line with 
other global portfolios under its management. For instance, they reduced 
the weighting in the United Kingdom ("U.K.") to 16.5% of the total portfo- 
lio compared to 28.3% on May 10, 1994, initiated a 7% weighting in Austria 
and 5% in Finland, and reduced the total number of positions in the port- 
folio from 64 on May 10, 1994 to 47 by December 31, 1994. From May 10, 
1994 to December 31, 1994, the value of Class A and Class B shares of the 
portfolio declined 1.4% and 1.8%, respectively, versus a minor 0.6% rise 
for the MSCI European Index. Since November 7, 1994, Smith Barney Mutual 
Funds Management Inc. (formerly known as Smith, Barney Advisers, Inc.) has 
served as investment adviser to the Fund. 

Actually, most European equity markets declined 10%-20% from their highs 
reached in early February 1994, as long-term interest rates rose between 
200-350 basis points in most countries during the last ten months. Thus, 
the sharp sell-off in the European bond markets affected the European eq- 
uity markets rather badly during this period. Since the beginning of 1994 
the European Financial Times Index dropped 8.8% in local currency terms, 
but only 0.4% in dollar terms. 

After three years of recession, many European economies have shown signs 
of modest improvement in 1994. While twelve months ago the consensus eco- 
nomic forecast for Europe was a real GDP growth of only 0.5%, it is cur- 
rently apparent that 2.5% real growth has been achieved last year and 3% 
is predicted for 1995 as well as 1996. In several ways, the overall eco- 
nomic cycle in Europe has been very similar to what we have seen in the 
United States, but at a lag of about two years. First of all, many compa- 
nies have been forced to implement cost reduction programs and corporate 
restructuring, in response to the sharp deterioration in profitability 
seen over the past several years. As the overall economy continues to turn 
upward, we believe that the effects of these restructurings will be re- 
flected in strong earnings comparisons over the next two years. Another 
similarity is evidenced by the huge flow of funds moving out of low- 
interest money market funds into the equity markets. The trend towards 
privatization in many European countries should be another boost for equi- 
ties. One of the risks in Europe is that the stronger economic environment 
forces the Bundesbank to start tightening, but the increased bond yields 
last year have, in our opinion, discounted this risk to some extent. 

In terms of investment strategy, the European Fund is heavily under- 
weighted in the U.K. (16.5% versus 35% for the MSCI European Index), as 
the British economic cycle is about 12 months ahead of Continental Europe 
and, therefore, interest rates, short and long, have already gone up. 
Moreover, we feel the corporate earnings cycle should be more explosive on 
the Continent. Ireland is overweighted as the economic conditions are by 
far superior compared to the U.K. We also tend to overweight Austria, as a 
means of participating in the exciting new developments in Eastern Europe. 
Germany's weighting has been upgraded to neutral, as Mr. Kohl's Christian 
Democrats (CDU) have been reelected and the German economic recovery is 
doing much better than anticipated nine months ago. Switzerland is neu- 
trally weighted, as the price/earnings ratios are relatively favorable, 
the Swiss conservative accounting is being adjusted towards more liberal 
European rules, and Swiss corporate management seems to become more inter- 
ested in improving shareholder values. 

The Finnish equity market was the best performing, up 51% last year, pro- 
pelled by the excellent performance of one of our largest holdings in 
Nokia (cellular phones) and the "yes" vote in the EU referendum. Although 
the newly-elected Swedish Government has not yet proved its commitment to 
tackling the huge budget deficit, we have positions in three large export- 
oriented companies. Equity valuations in France are more reasonably priced 
compared to neighbor Germany, but France remains slightly underweighted as 
Mr. Balladur does not seem to have much room to introduce any pump-priming 
measures in order to reduce the 12% unemployment rate before the May '95 
Presidential elections. The Netherlands is overweighted, due to invest- 
ments in a few attractive special situations (Hoogovens and Grolsch-beer). 

The Fund and the MSCI European Index's country weightings expressed as a 
percentage of total net assets held at December 31, 1994 are outlined

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc. (the "Company") (formerly known as 
Smith Barney Shearson Investment Funds Inc.) was incorporated in Maryland 
on September 29, 1981 and commenced operations on January 4, 1982. The 
Company is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under 
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a di- 
versified open-end management investment company. The Company is composed 
of four managed investment funds (the "Funds"): Smith Barney Investment 
Grade Bond Fund, Smith Barney Government Securities Fund, Smith Barney 
Special Equities Fund, and Smith Barney European Fund (the "Fund"). Effec- 
tive November 7, 1994, the Fund began offering Class Y shares and contin- 
ued to offer Class A, Class B and Class C shares (Class C shares were pre- 
viously designated "Class D" shares). As of December 31, 1994, no Class Y 
shares had been sold. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales 
charge. Class B and Class C shares may be subject to a contingent deferred 
sales charge ("CDSC") upon redemption. Class B shares will automatically 
convert to Class A shares eight years after the original purchase date. 
Class Y shares are available to investors making an initial investment of 
at least $5 million and are not subject to any sales charges, distribution 
and service fees. All classes of shares have identical rights and privi- 
leges except with respect to the effect of the respective sales charges to 
each class, the distribution and/or service fees borne by each class, ex- 
penses allocable exclusively to each class, voting rights on matters af- 
fecting a single class, the exchange privilege of each class and the con- 
version feature of Class B shares. The following is a summary of signifi- 
cant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in preparation 
of its financial statements. 

Portfolio valuation: Securities listed on an exchange are valued on the 
basis of the last sale prior to the time the valuation is made. If there 
has been no sale since the previous valuation, then the current bid price 
is used. Over-the-counter securities are valued on the basis of the bid 
price at the close of business on each day. Notwithstanding the above, 
bonds and other fixed-income securities are valued by using market quota- 
tions and may be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing ser- 
vice, when the Board of Directors believes that such prices reflect the 
market value of such securities. Foreign securities are valued on the 
basis of prices provided by pricing services. The service generally values 
foreign securities at the last quoted sales price on the exchange on which 
such securities are being valued, or lacking any sales, at the last avail- 
able sale price, except that in certain circumstances, prices provided by 
the pricing service are within the range of the available bid and offer 
prices. Unlisted foreign securities are valued at the mean between the 
last available bid and offer price prior to the time of valuation. In 
cases where securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securi- 
ties are valued on the exchange designated by or under the authority of 
the Board of Directors as the primary market. Securities and assets for 
which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value 
as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Di- 
rectors. Short-term securities maturing within 60 days are valued at amor- 
tized cost. 

Foreign currency transactions: The books and records of the Fund are 
maintained in United States (U.S.) dollars. Foreign currencies, invest- 
ments and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at 
the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period, and purchases and 
sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated on the 
respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses which 
result from changes in foreign currency exchange rates have been included 
in the unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of foreign currencies and 
net other assets. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting 
from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses 
between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transac- 
tions, foreign currency transactions and the difference between the 
amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and 
the amount actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and 
losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial pur- 
chase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized 
gains and losses on investment securities sold. 

Forward foreign currency contracts: Forward foreign currency contracts 
are valued at the forward rate and are marked-to-market daily. The change 
in market value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. 
When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss 
equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it 
was opened and the value at the time it was closed. 

The use of forward foreign currency contracts does not eliminate fluctua- 
tions in the underlying prices of the Fund securities, but it does estab- 
lish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. Although for- 
ward foreign currency contracts limit the risk of loss due to a decline in 
the value of the hedged currency, they also limit any potential gain that 
might result should the value of the currency increase. In addition, the 
Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are 
unable to meet the terms of their contracts. 

Repurchase agreements: The Fund engages in repurchase agreement transac- 
tions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Fund takes 
possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of 
the seller to repurchase, and the Fund to resell, the obligation at an 
agreed- upon price and time, thereby determining the yield during the 
Fund's holding period. This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return 
that is not subject to market fluctuations during the Fund's holding pe- 
riod. The value of the collateral is at least equal at all times to the 
total amount of the repurchase obligations, including interest. In the 
event of counterparty default, the Fund has the right to use the collat- 
eral to offset losses incurred. There is a potential loss to the Fund in 
the event the Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its rights to 
dispose of the collateral securities including the risk of a possible de- 
cline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while 
the Fund seeks to assert its rights. The Fund's investment adviser, admin- 
istrator or sub-administrator, acting under the supervision of the Board 
of Directors, reviews the value of the collateral and the creditworthiness 
of those banks and dealers with which the Fund enters into repurchase 
agreements to evaluate potential risks. 

Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions 
are recorded as of the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex- 
dividend date except that certain dividends from foreign securities are 
recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest 
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from 
securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Invest- 
ment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated 
based upon the relative net assets of each class of shares. 

Dividends and distributions to shareholders: Distributions from net in- 
vestment income, if any, are determined on a class level and will be de- 
clared and paid at least annually. Distributions from net realized capital 
gains, after utilization of capital loss carryforwards, are determined on 
a Fund level and will be distributed at least annually. Net short-term 
capital gains may be paid more frequently, with the distribution of divi- 
dends from net investment income. Additional distributions of net invest- 
ment income and capital gains may be made at the discretion of the Board 
of Directors to avoid the application of a 4% nondeductible excise tax im- 
posed on certain amounts of undistributed net income and capital gains. 
Income distributions and capital gain distributions on a Fund level are 
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from 
generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily 
due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment se- 
curities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characteriza- 
tion of distributions made by the Fund as a whole. Permanent differences 
incurred during the Fund's fiscal year resulting from net investment loss 
and different book and tax accounting treatment of foreign currency have 
been reclassified to paid-in capital at year end. 

Federal income taxes: The Fund intends to qualify as a regulated invest- 
ment company, if such qualification is in the best interest of its share- 
holders, by complying with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code 
of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and to 
distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. 
Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. 

2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES, ADMINISTRATION FEE 
    AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS 

As of the close of business on April 8, 1994, the Fund entered into an in- 
vestment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") with Smith, Barney 
Advisers, Inc., formerly a division of Mutual Management Corp., which has 
been transferred effective November 7, 1994 to Smith Barney Mutual Funds 
Management Inc. ("SBMFM"). Mutual Management Corp. and SBMFM are both 
wholly owned subsidiaries of Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"). 
Holdings is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Travelers Inc. The new Advi- 
sory Agreement contains substantially the same terms and conditions, in- 
cluding the level of fees, as the predecessor agreement. 

Prior to April 8, 1994, the Fund had entered into an investment advisory 
agreement with Lehman Brothers Global Asset Management Limited, a wholly 
owned subsidiary of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. Lehman Holdings is a 
publicly-owned corporation. Nippon Life Insurance Company owns approxi- 
mately 11.2% of the outstanding voting stock of Lehman Holdings. Fees ac- 
crued by the Fund were payable monthly to Global Asset Management based on 
an annual rate of 0.70% of the value of its average daily net assets. 

Prior to May 5, 1994, the Fund was party to an administration agreement 
with The Boston Company Advisors, Inc. ("Boston Advisors"), an indirect 
wholly owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank Corporation ("Mellon"). Under this 
agreement, the Fund paid a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.20% of the 
value of its average daily net assets. 

As of the close of business on May 5, 1994, SBMFM (formerly known as 
Smith, Barney Advisers, Inc.) succeeded Boston Advisors as the Fund's ad- 
ministrator. The new administration agreement contains substantially the 
same terms and conditions, including the level of fees, as the predecessor 
agreement. 

As of the close of business on May 5, 1994, the Fund and SBMFM entered 
into a sub-administration agreement (the "Sub-Administration Agreement") 
with Boston Advisors. Under the Sub-Administration Agreement, SBMFM pays 
Boston Advisors a portion of its administration fee at a rate agreed upon 
from time to time between SBMFM and Boston Advisors. 

For the year ended December 31, 1994, Smith Barney received $6,080 from 
investors representing commissions (sales charges) on sales of Class A 
shares. 

A CDSC is generally payable by a shareholder in connection with the re- 
demption of Class B shares within five years (eight years in the case of 
certain 401(k) plans) after the date of purchase. In circumstances in 
which the charge is imposed, the amount of the charge ranges between 5.00% 
and 1.00% of net asset value depending on the number of years since the 
date of purchase (except in the case of purchases by certain 401(k) plans 
in which case a 3.00% charge is imposed for the eight year period after 
the date of the purchase). A CDSC may be payable by a shareholder in con- 
nection with the redemption of Class C shares within one year after the 
date of purchase. In circumstances in which the charge is imposed, the 
amount of the charge is 1.00%. For the year ended December 31, 1994, Smith 
Barney received $87,384 from investors in CDSCs on the redemption of Class 
B shares. 

No officer, director or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates 
receives any compensation from the Company for serving as an officer or 
director of the Company. The Company pays each Director who is not an of- 
ficer, director or employee of Smith Barney or any of its affiliates 
$16,000 per annum plus $2,500 per meeting attended and reimburses each 
such Director for travel and out-of-pocket-expenses. 

Boston Safe Deposit and Trust Company, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary 
of Mellon, serves as the Fund's custodian. The Shareholder Services Group, 
Inc., a subsidiary of First Data Corporation, serves as the Fund's trans- 
fer agent. 

3. DISTRIBUTION PLAN 

Smith Barney acts as distributor of the Fund's shares pursuant to a dis- 
tribution agreement with the Company, and sells shares of the Fund through 
Smith Barney or its affiliates. 

Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Company has adopted a ser- 
vices and distribution plan (the "Plan"). Under this Plan, the Company 
compensates Smith Barney for servicing shareholder accounts for Class A, 
Class B and Class C shareholders, and covers expenses incurred in distrib- 
uting Class B and Class C shares. Smith Barney is paid an annual service 
fee with respect to Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund at the 
rate of 0.25% of the value of the average daily net assets attributable to 
each respective class of shares. Smith Barney is also paid an annual dis- 
tribution fee with respect to Class B and Class C shares at the rate of 
0.75% of the value of the average daily net assets of each respective 
class of shares. For the year ended December 31, 1994, service fees for 
Class A and Class B shares were $9,832 and $89,441, respectively. For the 
year ended December 31, 1994, distribution fees for Class B shares were 
$268,322. For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund paid no service 
or distribution fees for Class C shares. 

4. EXPENSE ALLOCATION 

Expenses of the Fund not directly attributable to the operations of any 
class of shares are prorated among the classes based upon the relative net 
assets of each class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a class 
of shares are charged to that class' operations. In addition to the above 
servicing and distribution fees, class specific operating expenses include 
transfer agent fees. For the year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund in- 
curred transfer agent fees of $13,452 and $97,140 for Class A and Class B 
shares, respectively. 

5. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS 

Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short- 
term investments, aggregated $25,193,794 and $25,280,447, respectively, 
for the year ended December 31, 1994. 

At December 31, 1994, aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all se- 
curities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost was 
$4,505,830, and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities 
in which there is an excess of tax cost over value was $958,215. 

6. SHARES OF COMMON STOCK 

At December 31, 1994, the Company had authorized on behalf of the Fund 
capital of 2.25 billion shares of $.001 par value common stock divided 
into four classes, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y. 

Changes in common stock outstanding were as follows:

As of December 31, 1994, no Class Y shares had been sold. 

7. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARDS 

At December 31, 1994, the Fund had available for federal tax purposes 
unused capital loss carryforwards of $634,728 and $619,182 expiring in 
1999 and 2000, respectively. 

8. FOREIGN SECURITIES 

Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments in- 
volves special risks and considerations not typically associated with in- 
vesting in U.S. companies and the United States government. These risks 
include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and eco- 
nomic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign companies and 
foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices 
more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies and 
the United States government. 

9. LINE OF CREDIT 

The Fund and several affiliated entities participate in a $50 million line 
of credit provided by Bank of America (formerly Continental Bank N.A.) 
under an Amended and Restated Line of Credit Agreement (the "Agreement") 
dated April 30, 1992 and renewed effective May 31, 1994, primarily for 
temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption re- 
quests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securi- 
ties. Under this Agreement, the Fund may borrow up to the lesser of $25 
million or 25% of its net assets, adjusted for purposes of the Agreement. 
However, pursuant to the Fund's prospectus, the Fund may only borrow up to 
10% of its net assets. Interest is payable either at the bank's Money Mar- 
ket Rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 0.375% on an 
annualized basis. Under the terms of the Agreement, as amended, the Fund 
and the other affiliated entities are charged an aggregate commitment fee 
of $100,000 which is allocated equally among each of the participants. The 
Agreement requires, among other provisions, each participating fund to 
maintain a ratio of net assets (not including funds borrowed pursuant to 
the Agreement) to aggregate amount of indebtedness pursuant to the Agree- 
ment of no less than 5 to 1. During the year ended December 31, 1994, the 
Fund had an average outstanding daily balance of $49,315 with interest 
rates ranging from 5.196% to 6.717%. Interest expense totalled $2,886 for 
the year ended December 31, 1994. At December 31, 1994, the Fund had no 
outstanding borrowings under the Agreement. 

10. PROPOSED REORGANIZATION 

On December 20, 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the 
proposed reorganization of the Fund with and into Smith Barney World 
Funds, Inc. -- European Portfolio. Subject to the approval of the Fund's 
shareholders, the reorganization will take place on or about April 21, 
1995. 

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS 

TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF 
SMITH BARNEY EUROPEAN FUND OF 
SMITH BARNEY INVESTMENT FUNDS INC.: 

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of 
Smith Barney European Fund of Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc., includ- 
ing the schedule of portfolio investments, as of December 31, 1994, and 
the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement 
of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then 
ended and the financial highlights for each of the six years in the period 
then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the 
responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express 
an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on 
our audits. 

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and fi- 
nancial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes 
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclo- 
sures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of 
securities owned as of December 31, 1994 by correspondence with the custo- 
dian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting princi- 
ples used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evalu- 
ating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our 
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred 
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position 
of Smith Barney European Fund of Smith Barney Investment Funds Inc. as of 
December 31, 1994, the results of its operations for the year then ended,
