Our Message To You
Dear Shareholder:
The following report discusses the performance of the Lutheran
Brotherhood Family of Funds for the six months ended April 30, 1995. In
addition to reviewing the investment strategies for each mutual fund,
the report covers recent market and economic conditions that may have
affected your returns and summarizes each manager's outlook for the
months to come.
In the past six months, investors have experienced the positive side of
market volatility. After struggling for most of 1994, stocks and bonds
recently enjoyed strong rebounds in prices. While these market changes
have been somewhat unusual, investors can generally expect some
fluctuation in their returns. Even professionals don't know exactly when
the markets will switch gears, so it helps to have a long-term plan you
can follow regardless of market conditions.
Of course, you still want to invest at attractive prices. The Lutheran
Brotherhood Family of Funds makes this easier through our Systematic
Investment Plan. Through this plan, you can transfer a specific amount
from your bank account to your Lutheran Brotherhood mutual fund account
on a regular basis. This lets you use a principle called dollar-cost
averaging. By investing the same amount at regular intervals, you'll buy
more shares when prices are low and fewer shares when prices are high.
Over time, this can reduce the average price you pay for each share.
The Systematic Investment Plan is one of the many services introduced by
Lutheran Brotherhood since it became the first fraternal benefit society
in the U.S. to offer mutual funds 25 years ago. As we celebrate our
silver anniversary, we have renewed our commitment to outstanding
service and competitive returns. If you'd like more information on the
Systematic Investment Plan or other services of the Lutheran Brotherhood
Family of Funds, please call us toll free at 800-328-4552, or locally at
612-339-8091.
Sincerely,

Economic and Market Overview April 30, 1995
In the last six months, stock and bond prices rose dramatically. This
was due largely to signs of a slowing economy, which eased investors'
worries about inflation and prompted a sharp decline in long-term
interest rates. During the period, bond prices recovered much of the
ground they lost last year, while stock prices hit new highs. This
significantly improved returns for shareholders in the Lutheran
Brotherhood Family of Funds.
New Optimism About Inflation
As the period began last November, the Federal Reserve Board boosted
short-term interest rates by 75 basis points. This increase, the largest
of six in 1994, raised investors' hopes that the Fed would curb
inflation and keep the economy growing. As investor optimism improved,
bond prices started to rise -- providing strong gains for bond fund
investors.
As bond prices rose, bond yields fell. This made stocks more appealing
to investors and enhanced the prospective profits of many companies.
With further strength in corporate earnings, stock prices also began to
rally.
The pace of these rallies accelerated in the first part of 1995. In
February, the Fed raised short-term rates another 50 basis points. At
the same time, it became increasingly clear that the economy was
slowing. Although short-term interest rates rose through the beginning
of April, long-term rates continued to fall. This pushed stock and bond
prices significantly higher.
By the end of April, the Dow Jones Industrial Average stood at 4316, up
10.6% from six months before. Meanwhile, rising bond prices pushed the
yields on 30-year Treasury bonds down to 7%, from a high of 8.2% in
October of 1994.
The Road Ahead
While inflation may rise briefly in the short term, we expect the annual
rate of inflation to average about 3.5% for the rest of this year. There
are now many signs of moderation in economic growth. During the first
quarter of 1995, the gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual
rate of 2.7%, compared to 5.1% in the last quarter of 1994.
While economic growth may slow significantly, it does not seem headed
for recession. Consumers still have money to spend, which should provide
further stimulation and continued growth.
Although stock and bond prices are unlikely to continue rising as
sharply as in recent months, they should continue to improve. Further
restraint in the economy and inflation could push long-term interest
rates lower and bond prices higher during the year. While corporate
earnings may be less robust, they should continue to grow for some time.
This could help stock prices reach new highs in the months to come.

Lutheran Brotherhood Opportunity Growth Fund
Portfolio Manager's Review
Michael A. Binger is a Chartered Financial Analyst and was named
portfolio manager for the LB Opportunity Growth Fund in October 1994. He
has been with Lutheran Brotherhood since 1987. Prior to his current
appointment, he served as portfolio manager for LB's Convertible
Securities Portfolio.
Fund Objective: To seek long-term growth of capital by investing in
small-company stocks.
In the recent stock rally, technology stocks enjoyed the biggest gains -
- - - especially computer and electronics-related issues. By investing
heavily in the technology sector, and choosing top performers, the LB
Opportunity Growth Fund delivered strong returns that outpaced other
funds in its class.
For the six months ended April 30, 1995, the Fund had a total return
(based on NAV) of 5.67%. That compares to a return of 5.32% for the
average small-company growth funds tracked by Lipper Analytical
Services, and 5.38% for the Russell 2000 Index.
Focus on Technology
During the period, we introduced computer software and networking stocks
to the portfolio. This included stocks such as Sierra Online,
Macromedia, Alantec and Madge, N.V. A few of these stocks doubled their
prices during the period, raising the combined weighting of the Fund's
computer software and office equipment sectors to 19%.
In addition, we increased the Fund's commitment to drug and health care
stocks from 7% to 11%. Although this group had rebounded significantly
from the losses of 1994, we found many medical products and health
services firms whose exceptional earnings potential made them attractive
investments for the Fund. Among the stocks we added were Health South
Rehabilitation, Puritan Bennett, EP Technologies, and Tecnol Medical
Products. This group also performed well, with the exception of Cima
Labs, a manufacturer of drug delivery systems.
To make these new purchases, we took profits in holdings that had
experienced significant price gains. These included Callaway Golf and
Cobra Golf in the leisure sector and CUC International, Envoy, Sun Guard
Data and Fiserv in the business services group. We also eliminated most
holdings in the restaurant group, as well as several auto and chemical
stocks. We felt there were better opportunities in sectors whose
earnings were not as closely tied to the economy.
Small Company Outlook is Bright
For most of the period, large-company stocks gained more in price than
small-company issues. Still concerned about the economy, investors
appeared to prefer the higher liquidity of large-company stocks. As a
result, the prices of small company stocks are still quite attractive --
especially given the higher earnings potential for small companies as a
whole.
We believe the earnings potential is strong for stocks in the LB
Opportunity Growth Fund. Given the positive outlook for technology,
business services and health care issues, we expect to maintain
substantial investments in those groups. In addition, we will look for
new opportunities in select retail firms that offer specialty or niche
products. As the economy slows and businesses look forward to the next
expansion, we may also increase the Fund's investments in capital goods
stocks and other industrial issues.

Lutheran Brotherhood Fund
Portfolio Manager's Review
James M. Walline is a Chartered Financial Analyst and portfolio manager
for the LB Fund. He is a vice president of Lutheran Brotherhood and has
been with Lutheran Brotherhood Research since its inception in 1970.
Fund Objective: To seek growth of capital and income by investing in the
stocks of leading companies.
As stock prices rose in recent months, we made significant new
investments in technology stocks -- the undisputed leaders of the market
rally. Strong gains by top-performing stocks in this sector helped the
LB Fund produce a total return (based on NAV) of 5.93% for the six
months ended April 30, 1995.
During the period, an unexpectedly sharp decline in long-term interest
rates boosted returns for interest-sensitive stocks in the financial
services and utilities sectors. At the same time, lower interest rates
and oil prices improved the gains for energy stocks. Because we placed
less emphasis on these groups, the Fund lagged the S&P 500 Index, which
returned 10.41% for the period, as well as the average growth and income
funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, which returned 7.66%.
Highlighting Industry Leaders
In choosing technology stocks, we focused on high-quality communication
and computer companies like Motorola, Intel and Microsoft that are the
leaders in their industry. Because the earnings growth of industry
leaders tends to be more reliable, this strategy can help stabilize the
Fund's returns as we take advantage of special market opportunities.
We used the same approach in adding consumer staples stocks to the
portfolio. Among our most significant purchases in this sector was Sara
Lee. Like other consumer staples stocks, whose earnings can continue to
grow in a weaker economy, we expect Sara Lee to perform well as the
economy slows. In addition, Sara Lee enjoys a strong market position
overseas.
During the period we increased the Fund's technology holdings from 13%
of the portfolio to 24% and boosted the representation of consumer
staples stocks from 8% to 12%. Within the consumer staples group, we
increased the Fund's allocation to health care stocks from 5% of the
portfolio to 11% -- with purchases of drug stocks like Abbott
Laboratories, Merck and Schering-Plough.
At the same time, we reduced the Fund's investments in industries where
company earnings tend to depend more on a growing economy, or where
company earnings were not otherwise reliable. This eliminated the Fund's
positions in building, mining, paper, publishing and railroad stocks.
Future Opportunities
We believe the Fund remains well-positioned for the months ahead. As the
economy slows, investors will become increasingly interested in
companies with dependable earnings growth. This should be of special
benefit to the Fund's holdings in the consumer staples and technology
sectors.
In the months to come, we will start to look for opportunities to invest
in consumer cyclical issues -- such as retailing, housing, banking and
auto stocks. The prices of many of these issues have become quite
attractive and could rebound strongly once investors become less worried
about the economy. We will also keep an eye on financial stocks, which
should benefit from a period of lower interest rates. In selecting
investments from these areas, we will continue to emphasize industry
leaders that can help stabilize the Fund's returns.

Lutheran Brotherhood High Yield Fund
Portfolio Manager's Review
Thomas N. Haag is a Chartered Financial Analyst and portfolio manager
for the LB High Yield Fund. He has managed the Fund since January 1992.
Fund Objective: To seek high current income and growth of capital by
investing primarily in high-yielding ("junk") corporate bonds.
During the recent rally in bond prices, the LB High Yield Fund had
significant investments in longer-term issues. These issues outperformed
other bonds in the first part of 1995. Earlier in the period, however,
longer-term issues had underperformed the market. This caused the Fund
to lag its market benchmark, and other funds in its class, for the six
months ended April 30, 1995. For the period, the Fund had a total return
(based on NAV) of 4.82%. That compares to returns of 8.08% and 5.73%,
respectively, for the Lehman Brothers High-Yield Index and the average
high-yield bond funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services.
Maximizing Income and Growth
As the period started, about 20% of the Fund was invested in deferred-
interest issues such as zero-coupon bonds. Many of these bonds have been
issued by broadcasting and telecommunications firms, whose potential for
growth has been strong. Because zero-coupon bonds behave like longer-
maturity issues, they can provide the Fund with attractive yields and
capital growth over time.
As interest rates and bond prices stabilized at the end of last year,
the prices of deferred interest investments continued to fall. Once
interest rates started to decline, and bond prices rebounded, these
investments outdistanced the market and delivered healthy price gains
for the Fund.
During the period we made minor changes to industry groups in the
portfolio that could make the Fund more defensive in a slowing economy.
We sold some of the Fund's investments in "cyclical" industries, such as
paper and chemicals, whose earnings tend to track the economy, and
bought issues in the supermarket and health care sectors, whose earnings
can grow even when the economy is weak. We continued to hold sizable
investments in the broadcasting and telecommunications groups, whose
earnings growth also depends less on the economy.
Making the Fund More Defensive
We may become even more defensive in the months ahead. Although a
slowing economy should mean additional declines in interest rates, we
think most of the drop in rates is probably behind us. Given the speed
with which rates have come down, we could even see a temporary rise in
rates sometime this year.
Besides stressing bonds in defensive industries, we've reduced the
Fund's holdings in zero-coupon issues and may take other measures to
shorten the average maturity of the Fund's investments. We also expect
to focus more on issues with higher credit ratings. These steps should
help stabilize the Fund's returns if rates rise and bond prices weaken.

Lutheran Brotherhood Income Fund
Portfolio Manager's Review
Charles E. Heeren, a vice president of Lutheran Brotherhood , is a
Chartered Financial Analyst and portfolio manager for
the LB Income Fund. He has managed the Fund since January 1986.
Fund Objective: To seek high current income while preserving principal
by investing in investment-grade bonds and other income-producing
securities.
In the last six months the LB Income Fund enjoyed strong gains from its
investments in longer-maturity bonds. As bond prices rallied, the prices
of longer-term issues generally rose more than the prices of shorter-
term issues. By investing more heavily in longer-term securities, the
Fund outperformed other funds in its class, as well as the bond market
as a whole.
For the six months ended April 30, 1995, the Fund had a total return
(based on NAV) of 7.67%. That compares with a return of 6.70% for the
average high-quality corporate bond funds tracked by Lipper Analytical
Services and 7.01% for the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index.
A Barbelled Maturity Structure
Expecting the Treasury yield curve to flatten, we'd arranged the
maturities of the Fund's investments in a "barbell" type of structure
before the period began. Using this structure, we made sizable
investments in asset-backed securities that matured in one to three
years and balanced those with large investments in 30-year corporate and
Treasury bonds. At the same time, we reduced the Fund's holdings in
bonds with maturities of five to 10 years. This helped us protect the
value of the Fund while increasing the potential for income and capital
gains. We extended this potential by raising the average maturity of the
Fund's investments from 161+4 years to 18 years.
The Fund also benefited from heavier investments in corporate bonds.
During the period stronger earnings and cash flow improved the credit
quality of corporate issues. At the same time, the supply of new
corporate issues declined. As the market rallied, these factors helped
corporate bond prices rise more quickly than the prices of Treasury
bonds.
We further diversified the Fund's corporate holdings by adding bonds
issued by chemical, health care, food, natural gas, retail and business
services firms. For the most part we shifted into groups that tend to be
less affected by a slowing economy. In addition, we reduced the Fund's
investments in areas where we felt bonds might become overvalued, such
as financial services and computer sectors.
Making the Most of Lower Interest Rates
Although a slowing economy may prompt further interest rate declines, we
do not expect rates to fall as sharply as they have in recent months. We
may, in fact, start to see rates stabilize or hit bottom. As a result,
we expect to use a more defensive investment strategy in the months
ahead.
Since an upturn in rates would be especially harmful to the prices of
longer-term issues, we have started to shorten the average maturity of
the Fund's investments by taking profits in top-performing bonds and
putting the proceeds in cash. In the meantime, lower interest rates
should prompt homeowners to refinance their mortgages. In anticipation
of this, we're selling some of the Fund's mortgage-backed securities to
protect its yield. We believe the Fund's corporate holdings are now
well-positioned for slower economic growth, but will continue to watch
for new investment opportunities that might arise.

Lutheran Brotherhood Municipal Bond Fund
Portfolio Manager's Review
Janet I. Grangaard is a Chartered Financial Analyst and was named
portfolio manager for the LB Municipal Bond Fund in January 1994. She
has been with Lutheran Brotherhood since 1988. Prior to her appointment
as portfolio manager, she served as associate portfolio manager for the
Fund.
Fund Objective: To seek high current income that is exempt from federal
income tax by investing in municipal bonds.
When bond prices rise, as they have, the price gains tend to be greatest
for longer-maturity issues. The municipal bond market is no exception.
By investing heavily in longer-term securities, the LB Municipal Bond
Fund delivered superior returns that outdistanced municipal bonds as a
whole, as well as other funds in its class.
For the six months ended April 30, 1995, the Fund had a total return
(based on NAV) of 7.97%. That compares with returns of 7.57% for the
Lehman Municipal Bond Index and 7.31% for an average of the municipal
bond funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services.
Adjusting to Smaller Supplies
In January of 1995, we had many bonds that were called in by issuers who
had refinanced at lower interest rates. We reinvested the proceeds in
issues with maturities of 15 to 30 years. To minimize the extra price
risk that comes with longer-term bonds, we emphasized issues with
exceptional credit quality.
During most of the period, the supply of new municipal bonds continued
to shrink. Where demand remained strong, there was extra upward pressure
on bond prices and extra downward pressure on yields. To maximize the
Fund's yield as interest rates fell, we sold bonds in states where new
issues declined sharply against strong demand and bought bonds in states
with larger supplies.
We also changed the types of bonds in the Fund's portfolio. With the
federal government giving state and local authorities more
responsibility and fewer resources, we have favored bonds funding high-
quality, revenue-producing projects that can stand on their own. Because
of this, we increased the Fund's investments in bonds that fund water
and sewer projects and surface transportation, while decreasing
investments in bonds that fund health care facilities.
Managing Uncertainty
It's not clear where municipal bond prices are headed. A slowing economy
could result in additional declines in interest rates and higher bond
prices. These lower interest rates could stimulate the economy, causing
rates to stabilize or even rise.
There are two powerful yet opposing forces that affect the municipal
bond market in this environment -- the shrinkage of the outstanding
supply of municipal bonds and talk of changes to the federal tax code.
If municipal bonds remain popular with investors, the shrinkage of the
market would benefit existing bond investors in the form of higher
prices. While tax reform is more of an issue for the 1997 Congress,
we'll track which proposals gain favor in Washington and be prepared to
respond accordingly.
With its focus on high-quality issues and revenue bonds, we believe the
LB Municipal Bond Fund is well-positioned to cope with these
uncertainties. If municipal bond prices appear to be weakening, we may
reduce the Fund's emphasis on longer-maturity investments to mitigate
the risks associated with higher interest rates.

Lutheran Brotherhood Money Market Fund
Portfolio Manager's Review
Gail R. Onan, assistant vice president of Lutheran Brotherhood Research
Corp., was named portfolio manager for the LB Money Market Fund in
January 1994. She has been with Lutheran Brotherhood Research since
1986. Prior to her appointment as manager of the Fund, she served as
associate manager for the Fund.
Fund Objective: To seek current income with stability of principal by
investing in high-quality, short-term debt.**
The money market experienced dramatic changes in recent months. After
rising sharply for most of 1994, yields weathered two more hikes in
interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board's Open Market Committee (the
Fed), plateaued and then began to decline. By the end of April 1995, the
overnight Fed fund rate was about half a percent higher than it was six
months before.
Throughout this time, we adjusted the maturities of investments in the
LB Money Market Fund to make the most of these changes. This helped the
Fund earn a total return of 2.40% for the six months ended April 30,
1995.
Portfolio Strategy
As the period started, the Fund's investments had an average maturity of
40 days. After the Fed raised short-term rates in November, we extended
the average to 44 days. This was longer than the average maturity for
other money market funds and provided the Fund with stronger yields.
In January, as it appeared the Fed would boost rates again, we shortened
the average maturity to be able to invest more quickly at the higher
rates. As rates stabilized at higher levels, we lengthened the average
maturity once again and picked up greater yields. These adjustments were
made easier by staggering the Fund's investments among different
maturity dates.
During the period we looked for securities that were available in strong
supply and offered attractive yields. Because of its greater
availability, we increased investments in commercial paper from 73% of
the Fund's assets to 84%. In doing so, we further diversified the Fund's
investments in this sector by adding securities from a broader range of
issuers.
Looking Ahead
While there are signs that the economy is slowing, inflation remains a
concern. If the economy does not weaken as expected, short-term rates
may start to climb again. Historically, a larger supply of new issues
has often put upward pressure on rates in last few months of the year.
While we expect to keep the Fund's average maturity near 40 to 45 days,
we're focusing on maturities of four to six months. This should give us
money to invest at better yields in the fall, if interest rates do rise
at that time.
If the economy continues to slow, interest rates should fall to lower
levels. In that case, we would want to lengthen the Fund's average
maturity and lock in higher yields. At this point it's not clear which
way rates will go. By continuing to stagger the Fund's maturity dates,
we hope to respond quickly to any change in rate direction.

Footnotes
*The annualized total return reflects the change in share price, the
reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains, and the effect of
compounding. Since performance varies, the annualized total return,
which assumes a steady rate of growth, differs from the Fund's actual
total return for the years indicated. POP returns have been adjusted for
the maximum 5% sales charge. NAV returns do not include a sales charge.
All returns represent past performance. The value of an investment
fluctuates so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than
the original investment.
**Investments in the Money Market Fund are neither guaranteed nor
insured by the U.S. Government and there is no assurance that the Fund
will maintain a stable net asset value.

See accompanying notes to portfolio of investments.
Notes to Portfolio of Investments:
(a) The categories of investments are shown as a percentage of total
investments of the Lutheran Brotherhood Municipal Bond Fund.
(b) Denotes securities that have been pre-refunded or escrowed to maturity.
Under such an arrangement, money is deposited into an irrevocable escrow
account and is used to purchase U.S. Treasury securities or Government
Agency securities with maturing principal and interest earnings sufficient
to pay all debt service requirements of the pre-refunded bonds. Because the
original bonds assume a quality rating equivalent to the escrowed U.S.
Government securities, they are considered to be U.S. Government securities
for purposes of portfolio diversification requirements.
(c) Insured by Municipal Bond Investors Assurance Corp.
(d) Insured by Financial Guaranty Insurance Co.
(e) Insured by Financial Security Assurance, Inc.
(f) Insured by AMBAC Indemnity Corp.
(g) Insured by Connie Lee Insurance Co.
(h) Denotes variable rate obligations for which the interest rate varies
inversly with movements in short-term tax-exempt yields.
(i) Insured by Federal Housing Administration.
(j) Insured by Permanent School Fund Guarantee.
(k) Denotes variable rate obligations for which the current yield and the
next scheduled interest reset date are shown.
(l) At April 30, 1995, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income
tax purposes was $592,472,169 and the net unrealized appreciation of
investments based on that cost was $19,450,048 which is comprised of
$26,570,086 aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and $7,120,038
aggregate gross unrealized depreciation.

The Lutheran Brotherhood Family of Funds
Notes to Financial Statements
April 30, 1995
(Unaudited)
(1) Organization
The Lutheran Brotherhood Family of Funds (the "Trust") is a Delaware
business trust and a diversified, open-end investment company registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trust is divided into six
series (the "Fund(s)"), each with its own investment objective and
policies. The six Funds of the Trust are: Lutheran Brotherhood
Opportunity Growth Fund, Lutheran Brotherhood Fund, Lutheran Brotherhood
High Yield Fund, Lutheran Brotherhood Income Fund, Lutheran Brotherhood
Municipal Bond Fund and Lutheran Brotherhood Money Market Fund.
(2) Significant Accounting Policies
Investment Security Valuations
Securities traded on national securities exchanges are valued at the
last quoted sales price at the close of each business day; securities
traded on the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no
price is readily available are valued at the mean between bid and asked
price as determined by an independent pricing service. The pricing
service, in determining values of securities, takes into consideration
such factors as current quotations by broker/dealers, coupon, maturity,
quality, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other yield and
risk factors it deems relevant in determining valuations. Exchange
listed options and futures contracts are valued at the last quoted sales
price. For all Funds other than the Money Market Fund, short-term
securities with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost; those with maturities greater than 60 days are valued at the mean
between bid and asked price. Short-term securities held by the Money
Market Fund are valued on the basis of amortized cost (which
approximates market value), whereby a portfolio security is valued at
its cost initially, and thereafter valued to reflect a constant
amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. The Money Market
Fund follows procedures necessary to maintain a constant net asset value
of $1.00 per share. All other securities for which market values are not
readily available are appraised at fair value as determined in good
faith by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.
Repurchase Agreements
The Funds may engage in repurchase agreement transactions in pursuit of
their investment objectives. When a fund engages in such transactions,
it is policy to require the custodian bank to take possession of all
securities held as collateral in support of repurchase agreement
investments. In addition, the Fund monitors the market value of the
underlying collateral on a daily basis. If the seller defaults or if
bankruptcy proceedings are initiated with respect to the seller, the
realization or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal
proceedings.
Investment Income
Interest income is determined on the basis of interest or discount
earned on any short-term investments and interest earned on all other
debt securities, including accrual of original issue discount. Interest
earned on debt securities also includes amortization of premium for the
Opportunity Growth, LB Fund, High Yield and Municipal Bond Funds and the
accrual of market discount for the Opportunity Growth, LB Fund and High
Yield Funds. Market discount, if any, is recognized for tax purposes
when bonds are sold for the Income and Municipal Bond Funds. Dividend
income is recorded on the ex- dividend date. For payment-in-kind
securities, income is recorded on the ex-dividend date in the amount of
the value received.
Options and Financial Futures Transactions
All Funds except the Money Market Fund may utilize futures and options
contracts. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized appreciation
or depreciation is recorded. The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon
expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is
exercised, the proceeds on sale for a written call option or the cost of
a security for purchased put and call options is adjusted by the amount
of premium received or paid.
Upon buying or selling a futures contract, the Fund is required to
deposit either cash or securities in an amount (initial margin) equal to
a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments
(variation margin) are made or received by the Fund each day. The
variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract
value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses. The Fund realizes
a gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires.
Federal Income Taxes
It is the policy of each Fund to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and
to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of their
taxable income on a timely basis, including any net realized gain on
investments each year. It is also the intention of the Funds to
distribute an amount sufficient to avoid imposition of any federal
excise tax. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is
necessary. Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity for federal
income tax purposes.
When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions
The Funds may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. To
the extent that a Fund engages in such transactions, it will do so for
the purpose of acquiring securities consistent with its investment
objectives and policies and not for the purpose of investment leverage
or to speculate on interest rate changes. On the trade date, assets of
the Fund are segregated on the Fund's records in a dollar amount
sufficient to make payment for the securities to be purchased. Income is
not accrued until settlement date.
Dollar Roll Transactions
The Income Fund enters into dollar roll transactions, with respect to
mortgage securities issued by GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC, in which the Fund
sells mortgage securities and simultaneously agrees to repurchase
substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities at a
later date at an agreed upon price. During the period between the sale
and repurchase, the Fund forgoes principal and interest paid on the
mortgage securities sold. The Fund is compensated by the interest earned
on the cash proceeds of the initial sale and from negotiated fees paid
by brokers offered as an inducement to the Fund to "roll over" its
purchase commitments. For the six months ended April 30, 1995, the
Income Fund earned $327,852 from such fees.
Organization Costs
Organization costs incurred by the Opportunity Growth Fund to prepare
its initial registration statement and register shares are capitalized
and will be amortized over a period of 60 months from its commencement
date. If any initial shares are redeemed during the amortization period,
the redemption proceeds will be reduced by a pro-rata portion of the
unamortized balance at the time of redemption, in the same proportion
that the number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the number of
initial shares outstanding at the time of redemption.
Distribution to Shareholders
Dividends from net investment income, if available, are declared and
paid annually for the Opportunity Growth Fund, declared and paid
quarterly for the LB Fund, declared and paid monthly for the High Yield,
Income and Municipal Bond Funds, and declared daily (including short-
term net realized gains and losses) and paid monthly for the Money
Market Fund. Net realized gains from securities transactions, if any,
are distributed at least annually, after the close of the Fund's fiscal
year. Dividends and capital gain distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The character of distributions made during the year from net investment
income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate
characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of
dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed
may differ from the year that the income or net realized gains were
recorded by the Fund.
Other
Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are
purchased or sold. Realized gains and losses are determined on the
identified cost basis. Each Fund is charged for the operating expenses
that are directly attributable to it. Fund operating expenses that
cannot be directly attributable to a Fund are either shared equally or
allocated among them based on the relative net assets of each Fund or
via other methodologies.
(3) Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates
Investment Advisory Fees
Each Fund pays Lutheran Brotherhood Research Corp. (LBRC), the Trust's
investment advisor, a fee for its advisory services. The fees are
accrued daily and paid monthly. The fees are based on the following
annual rates of average daily net assets: Opportunity Growth Fund, 0.75%
for the first $100 million in assets, 0.65% for the next $150 million in
assets, 0.60% for the next $250 million in assets, 0.55% for the next
$500 million in assets, and 0.50% for assets over $1 billion; LB Fund
and High Yield Fund, 0.65% for the first $500 million in assets, 0.60%
for the next $500 million, and 0.55% for assets over $1 billion; Income
Fund, 0.60% for the first $500 million in assets, 0.575% for the next
$500 million in assets, and 0.55% for assets over $1 billion; Municipal
Bond Fund, 0.575% for the first $500 million in assets, 0.5625% for the
next $500 million, and 0.55% for assets over $1 billion; Money Market
Fund, 0.50% for the first $500 million in assets, 0.475% for the next
$500 million, 0.45% for the next $500 million, 0.425% for the next $500
million, and 0.40% for assets over $2 billion. During the six months
ended April 30, 1995 the Money Market Fund advisory fees totaled
$717,452 of which $200,210 were voluntarily waived by LBRC to limit the
Money Market Fund's expense ratio to 1.10% of average daily net assets.
LBRC can terminate its voluntary waiver of expenses at any time at its
discretion.
Sales Charges and Other Fees
For the six months ended April 30, 1995, Lutheran Brotherhood Securities
Corp. (LBSC), the Trust's distributor, received sales charges paid by
purchasers of Fund shares of: Opportunity Growth Fund, $1,271,918; LB
Fund, $837,093; High Yield Fund, $651,502; Income Fund, $678,530; and
Municipal Bond Fund, $491,953. Sales charges are not an expense of the
Trust and are not reflected in the financial statements of any of the
Funds. LBSC also received fees pursuant to an agreement to provide
certain administrative personnel and services to the Funds. Effective
January 1, 1995, a new agreement went into effect where by LBSC will
receive an annual fee equal to 0.025% of average daily net assets. LBSC
received the following compensation for the six months ended April 30,
1995: Opportunity Growth Fund, $14,758; LB Fund, $66,742; High Yield
Fund, $64,584; Income Fund, $97,495; Municipal Bond Fund, $72,726; and
Money Market Fund, $44,645. In addition, LBSC provides the Funds with
transfer agent services pursuant to an agreement and received the
following compensation: Opportunity Growth Fund, $262,160; LB Fund,
$722,947; High Yield Fund, $456,881; Income Fund, $700,027; Municipal
Bond Fund, $257,016; and Money Market Fund, $606,520. Certain officers
and non-independent trustees of the Fund are officers and directors of
LBRC and LBSC.
(4) Securities Lending
To generate additional income, the Funds may participate in a securities
lending program administered by the Fund's custodian bank. Securities
are periodically loaned to brokers, banks or other institutional
borrowers of securities, for which collateral in the form of cash, U.S.
government securities, or letter of credit is received by the custodian
in an amount at least equal to the market value of securities loaned.
Collateral received in the form of cash is invested in short-term
investments by the custodian from which earnings are shared between the
borrower, the custodian and the Fund at negotiated rates. The risks to
the Fund are that it may experience delays in recovery or even loss of
rights in the collateral should the borrower of securities fail
financially. At April 30, 1995, there were no security loans
outstanding.
(5) Distributions From Capital Gains
During the six months ended April 30, 1995, distributions from net
realized capital gains of $88,151, and $3,034,747, were paid by the LB
Fund and LB High Yield Fund, respectively. These distributions related
to net capital gains realized during the prior fiscal year ended October
31, 1994.
(6) Capital Loss Carryover
At October 31, 1994 the Opportunity Growth Fund, Income Fund and
Municipal Bond Fund had accumulated net realized capital loss carryovers
of $2,547,602, $48,987,208 and $6,406,278 respectively (expiring in
2002). To the extent these Funds realize future net capital gains,
taxable distributions will be reduced by any unused capital loss
carryovers.
(7) Investment Transactions
Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities
For the six months ended April 30, 1995, the cost of purchases and the
proceeds from sales of investment securities other than U.S. Government
and short term securities were as follows:
($thousands)
-----------------------------------
Fund Purchases Sales
- - ------------------ -------------- --------------
Opportunity Growth $ 99,698 $ 80,577
LB Fund 420,653 370,263
High Yield 222,218 173,199
Income 249,888 254,113
Municipal Bond 125,378 126,508
LB Fund $ -- $ 1,890
Income 448,304 260,314
Investments in Restricted Securities
The High Yield Fund owns restricted securities that were purchased in
private placement transactions without registration under the Securities
Act of 1933. Unless such securities subsequently become registered, they
generally may be resold only in privately negotiated transactions with a
limited number of purchasers. The aggregate value of restricted
securities was $5,253,403 at April 30, 1995 which represented 1.0% of
net assets of the High Yield Fund.
Investments in High Yielding Securities
The High Yield Fund invests primarily in high yielding fixed income
securities. These securities will typically be in the lower rating
categories or will be non-rated and generally will involve more risk
than securities in the higher rating categories. Lower rated or unrated
securities are more likely to react to developments affecting market
risk and credit risk than are more highly rated securities, which react
primarily to movements in the general level of interest rates.
Investments in Options and Futures Contracts
All Funds except the Money Market Fund may buy put and call options,
write covered call options and buy and sell futures contracts as hedges
to provide protection against adverse movements in prices of securities
in the portfolio or to facilitate buying and selling securities.
The movement in the price of the instrument underlying an option or
futures contract may not correlate perfectly with the movement in the
prices of the portfolio securities being hedged. A lack of correlation
could render the Fund's hedging strategy unsuccessful and could result
in a loss to the Fund. In the event that a liquid secondary market would
not exist, the Fund could be prevented from entering into a closing
transaction which could result in additional losses to the Fund.
Open Option Contracts
The number of contracts and premium amounts associated with call option
contracts written during the six month period ended April 30, 1995 were
as follows:
