DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS:
We are pleased to present to you the semi-annual report of Hotchkis and Wiley
Funds for the six months ended December 31, 1997. Investment commentary on the
Funds and their strategies follows below:
EQUITY INCOME FUND
The Equity Income Fund's total return for the six months ended December 31, 1997
was 14.4% compared to the S&P 500 Index return of 10.7%. There was a dramatic
rotation in market leadership away from the narrow set of stocks that had been
driving performance over the past 2 1/2 years. Announcements by such companies
as Coca-Cola, Microsoft and Gillette tempered Wall Street's enthusiasm for
earnings growth expectations, prompting this rotation. In addition, concerns
over the mounting Asian debt crisis caused investors to become increasingly
defensive. The portfolio was well positioned to benefit from this breakdown of
the market's mega-cap momentum run. Many of the areas of the market where we
have identified valuation opportunities rebounded strongly as the market focused
on the underlying intrinsic value of companies. Our returns came primarily from
the finance, utilities, and consumer durables sectors of the market. Basic
material companies were a slight negative during the six months, as they
initially rose on strong profit announcements and then sold off on worries of
overseas revenue exposure.
Utilities was the best performing sector of the equity market and the Fund
during this period. Some of this gain was driven by a strong rally in the U.S.
Treasury market as the 30 year bond closed the year with a yield of only 5.92%
- -- a full 1.24% below the yearly high in April. In addition to the interest rate
move, utility stocks were supported by favorable resolution on deregulatory and
stranded cost issues, moves toward consolidation, and investors' desire for
stocks that are both isolated from the international turmoil and offer strong
valuation characteristics.
The Fund remains most heavily weighted in the financial, utility and basic
industry sectors of the market. We continue to find attractive opportunities
within the electric utility group, and expect the recent outperformance of these
stocks should continue. Similarly, the basic industry group appears cheap,
particularly following the group's recent decline, as it bears the brunt of the
Asian turmoil.
We believe the Fund is well situated to take advantage of an unsettled, richly
valued market. We are paying less for earnings (13.9x vs. 20.7x) and receiving
more in dividends (2.9% vs. 1.7%) than the average of companies in the S&P 500
Index. These key portfolio characteristics help control risk in a volatile
market and provide a platform for outperformance as investors refocus on
fundamental value. We continue to manage the portfolio by strict adherence to
our investment disciplines, which emphasize these lower risk characteristics.
MID-CAP FUND
The Mid-Cap Fund return was 13.1% for the six-month period ended December 31,
1997 versus the Russell Mid-Cap Index return of 14.5%. Although mid cap stocks
outpaced large cap stocks from July to September, the economic crisis in Asia in
October hampered the performance of mid-cap stocks in the latter three months of
1997. In response to the Asian turmoil, investors took a defensive stance by
shifting to large, well-established companies. This "flight to quality"
triggered a sell-off of some mid-cap issues.
<PAGE> 3
Long-term, we do not think this knee-jerk movement into the large capitalization
stocks is well founded. Since large capitalization stocks have a much greater
exposure to the international markets, their earnings may be more vulnerable to
a global economic downturn than mid-cap stocks. Furthermore, mid-cap stocks, on
average, have a higher long-term growth rate and are currently selling at
discounted valuations to the larger capitalization group. As such, we believe
there should be stocks in the mid-cap universe that command higher prices to
reflect these growth opportunities.
SMALL CAP FUND
The Small Cap Fund exhibited a relatively strong performance over the last six
months. The Fund outperformed the Russell 2000 Index by 4.02% with a return of
15.04% versus 11.03% for the Index. The strong results came primarily from the
energy, finance, and basic industry sectors.
From July to September, we observed a pleasant reversal in the relative
performance of small cap stocks. Investors shifted to small cap issues as signs
of a slowdown in earnings growth from several widely held large cap companies
began to surface. This period of relative outperformance, however, was curtailed
by the stock market decline across the Far East in October. The resulting
economic crisis in Asia reverberated to the U.S., causing the market to decline
significantly. Although the market recovered substantially by the end of
December, investors continued to maintain a defensive position and flocked to
large, blue chip stocks as a safe haven from the economic uncertainties in Asia.
As a result, the Russell 2000 Index underperformed the S&P 500 in the last three
months of 1997, although overall the Russell 2000 Index outperformed the S&P 500
for the six-month period ended December 31, 1997 due to its strong initial
results.
Since the Asian stock market turmoil, the valuation discount of small cap stocks
relative to large cap stocks has widened considerably, once again creating a
breadth of opportunities for investors. In the near-term, this unusual valuation
spread between small cap stocks and large cap stocks may persist; however, once
the impact of Asia's economic crisis is better understood by investors, we
expect the small cap stocks as a group to appreciate in value in line with their
estimated long-term growth rates. Furthermore, low interest rates in the U.S.
should buoy the valuations of small cap stocks. We continue to hold a long-term
view that the relative positions of small cap stocks will improve as investors
recognize that strong growth found in small caps is not fully reflected in their
share prices.
INTERNATIONAL FUND
Although in negative territory in the second half of 1997, the International
Fund's return of -4.49% fared far better than both the EAFE and the Lipper
International Indices of -8.36% and -6.57%, respectively. This six-month period
encompassed the worst of last year's Asia meltdown, which sent shock waves
throughout stock markets globally. The Asian effect also added momentum to the
rising U.S. dollar, especially relative to Asian currencies. European currencies
also lost ground. Uncertainty regarding the successful launch of the European
Monetary Union next year and the credibility of the new European Central Bank
has overshadowed many continental European currencies.
The Fund remained sheltered from the full extent of the bear market in Japan
with a 12% average weighting in Japan (vs. 29% for the EAFE Index). The Japanese
stock market declined by nearly 20% in yen terms, and by nearly 30% in U.S.
dollar terms. Investors sold the market in response to the Japanese government's
belated efforts to reverse an overly contractionary fiscal policy. Instability
in Japan's major trading partners, especially Korea, has made recovery in
Japanese real GDP growth all the more unlikely this year. Throughout this period
of market weakness, the Fund has accumulated positions in stocks in the Japanese
market trading at historically low valuation levels. We are finding the best
opportunities in companies whose earnings are especially sensitive to the
domestic economic cycle. The Fund's other significant Asian exposure is to Hong
Kong, with an average 7% weighting vs. 3% for the EAFE Index. This overweight
position hampered performance as the local market declined 30% in the period. As
a result, we are even more bullish on Hong Kong stocks and the greater China
economy. We have used this recent sell off to add to positions in the highest
quality companies in the Fund.
European stocks, in general, delivered robust performance in the second half,
seemingly unaffected by the crisis in Asia. Domestic currency depreciation
<PAGE> 4
versus the U.S. dollar and the pound sterling has provided an export boost to
many countries. The Fund has approximately two thirds of its total assets
invested in European and U.K. stocks. Encouragingly, many of the larger
companies in Europe and the U.K. are restructuring in an effort to enhance
shareholder returns in a benign environment for growth and inflation.
The Fund continues to seek areas of the international equity markets that offer
the most promising upside potential. Many of the opportunities that have
proliferated on our value screens are in the capital goods and basic materials
sectors. In these sectors, share prices more than reflect the loss of orders or
competitive threats stemming from the Asian turmoil.
GLOBAL EQUITY FUND
The Global Equity Fund performance of -4.03% did not keep pace with the MSCI
World Index performance of 5.20% in the second half of 1997. Our bottom-up stock
selection approach has resulted in market weightings that often vary
dramatically from the Index. The screened list of stocks that meet our strict
value-oriented criteria suggests significantly greater return potential in the
European and Asian regions than in the U.S. As a result, the Fund held an
average weighting of 26% in U.S. stocks (vs. nearly 50% for the MSCI World
Index) and near the MSCI World Index weighting in Japan. The U.S. market
shrugged off most ill effects from the Asian crisis and delivered another strong
performance (gaining approximately 11% in six months, based on the S&P 500).
This period encompassed the worst of last year's Asia meltdown, which sent shock
waves throughout stock markets globally.
European stocks, in general, delivered robust performance in the second half,
seemingly unaffected by the crisis in Asia. Domestic currency depreciation
versus the U.S. dollar and the pound sterling has provided an export boost to
many countries. The Fund had average weighting of approximately 48% in European
stocks vs. 31% for the Index. Encouragingly, many of the larger companies in
Europe and the U.K. are restructuring in an effort to enhance shareholder
returns in a benign environment for growth and inflation.
In Japan, renewed economic stagnation and slow progress in the shaky finance
sector made the environment for stocks extremely hostile. In U.S. dollar terms,
Japanese market performance ranked near the bottom for the six months ended
December 31, 1997. The Fund was not immune from the Asian economic and currency
crisis, and had an average 9% exposure to Asian ex-Japan markets (Hong Kong,
Malaysia and Singapore) versus 2% for the Index.
Our screens indicate more clearly than ever that upside potential (unadjusted
for risk) is greatest in the most embattled areas of the global equity markets.
The Fund's own characteristics relative to the benchmark also reinforce that
statement. As of December 31, 1997, the Fund had a prospective price-to-earnings
ratio and price-to-book value ratio of less than 60% of the World Index with a
return on equity of 1.4x the Index. The Fund should benefit significantly from
any improvement in the international markets (especially in Asia) and currencies
relative to the U.S.
BALANCED FUND
The Balanced Fund produced a total return of 7.8% for the six months ended
December 31, 1997. The current allocation of 40% equity and 60% fixed-income
reflects our assessment of relative value in terms of risk versus prospective
returns. Current income yield, derived from common stock dividends and fixed
income interest, is 4.6%. This compares to a dividend yield of 1.7% on the S&P
500 Index.
The following table provides a historical perspective of our asset allocation
strategy.

Financial sector stocks made the greatest contribution to the Fund's equity
portfolio returns during 1997 followed by utilities. Other economic sectors that
had superior returns were healthcare, consumer durables and energy. Both basic
industry and transportation lagged the general market for the year. We
<PAGE> 5
used price declines in metals, paper and wood product stocks as an opportunity
to add positions during the most recent quarter. Additions were also made in the
energy, capital spending and consumer durable sectors.
The fixed-income portfolio benefited from a strategic weighting of assets in
investment-grade corporate securities, U.S. Government securities, mortgage-
backed bonds and asset-backed securities. The fixed-income portfolio ended the
year with an effective duration of 3.3 years, which is slightly above the Lehman
Brothers Intermediate Govt./Corp. Index. The average credit quality of the
Fund's fixed-income holdings remains AAA.
SHORT-TERM INVESTMENT FUND
LOW DURATION FUND
TOTAL RETURN BOND FUND
All three of the Hotchkis and Wiley fixed-income funds continued their record of
strong performance during the six months ended December 31, 1997:

</TABLE>
The six months ended December 31,1997 proved to be very interesting for the
fixed-income markets. The economy continued its exceptional growth rate, with
annualized GDP advancing at a rate of 3.7% and the unemployment rate dropping to
4.7% from 5.0%. All the while, inflation was nowhere to be seen. Bond market
participants were finally convinced that strong economic growth in and of itself
would not necessarily increase inflation, and thus, not force the Federal
Reserve to raise short-term rates. With this tail wind, the bond market was able
to rally during the second half of 1997. The long end of the market outperformed
relative to shorter maturities as is typical of a market that is decreasing its
inflation expectations.
During this time, we began to restructure the portfolios as the fundamental
environment changed. In the fourth quarter of the year we went from an
overweight position in mortgages to an underweighting. The basis for this move
was our concern that prepayment rates are potentially being underestimated, and
that the market has not fully discounted this probability. We also began to
upgrade the credit quality of the corporate holdings in anticipation that
corporate earnings are exposed to downside pressure. The source of this pressure
is the continued lack of pricing flexibility corporations are experiencing
combined with increasing costs of business, especially with regard to employment
costs.
Looking forward, we anticipate a subtle slowdown in the U.S. economy due to
Asian economic turmoil. Most economies in Asia will be hamstrung by higher
interest rates and restrictive fiscal policies, both designed to shore up weak
capital reserve positions. We believe this slowdown will hamper U.S. exports.
Importantly, weaker overseas currencies should have the effect of holding down
domestic inflation. For these reasons, we are positive on the bond market, and
look for interest rates to continue to lower levels.
We thank you for your continued investment in the Hotchkis and Wiley Funds. We
look forward to serving your investment needs in the months and years ahead.
Sincerely,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
December 31, 1997
NOTE 1.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES. Hotchkis and Wiley Funds (the "Trust") is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end, management
investment company. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on
August 22, 1984 and consists of ten series of shares comprising the Balanced
Fund, the Small Cap Fund, the Equity Income Fund, the International Fund, the
Total Return Bond Fund, the Low Duration Fund, the Short-Term Investment Fund,
the Mid-Cap Fund, the Global Equity Fund and the Equity Fund for Insurance
Companies (collectively, the "Funds"), the assets of which are invested in
separate, independently managed portfolios. The accompanying financial
statements exclude financial information for the Equity Fund for Insurance
Companies; financial statements for that Fund are reported on separately.
Investment operations of the Funds began on August 13, 1985 (the Balanced Fund),
September 20, 1985 (the Small Cap Fund), June 24, 1987 (the Equity Income Fund),
October 1, 1990 (the International Fund), January 29, 1993 (the Equity Fund for
Insurance Companies), May 18, 1993 (the Low Duration Fund and the Short-Term
Investment Fund), December 6, 1994 (the Total Return Bond Fund), and January 2,
1997 (the Mid-Cap Fund and the Global Equity Fund).
The Balanced Fund seeks to preserve capital while producing a high total return.
The Small Cap Fund seeks capital appreciation. The Equity Income Fund seeks to
provide current income and long-term growth of income, accompanied by growth of
capital. The International Fund seeks to provide current income and long-term
growth of income, accompanied by growth of capital. The Total Return Bond Fund
seeks to maximize long-term total return. The Low Duration Fund seeks to
maximize total return, consistent with preservation of capital. The Short-Term
Investment Fund seeks to maximize total return, consistent with preservation of
capital. The Mid-Cap Fund seeks to provide current income and long-term growth
of income, accompanied by growth of capital. The Global Equity Fund seeks to
provide current income and long-term growth of income, accompanied by growth of
capital. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed
by the Funds in the preparation of the financial statements.
SECURITY VALUATION: Portfolio securities that are listed on a securities
exchange (whether domestic or foreign) or the NASDAQ National Market System
("System") are valued at the last sale price as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, or,
in the absence of recorded sales, at the average of readily available closing
bid and asked prices on such exchange or such System. Unlisted securities that
are not included in such System are valued at the average of the quoted bid and
asked price in the over-the-counter market. Fixed income securities are normally
valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing
services. Certain fixed income securities for which daily market quotations are
not readily available may be valued pursuant to guidelines established by the
Board of Trustees, with reference to fixed income securities whose prices are
more readily obtainable or an appropriate matrix utilizing similar factors. As a
broader market does not
44
<PAGE> 52
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
exist, the proceeds received upon the disposal of such securities may differ
from quoted values previously furnished by such market makers. Securities for
which market quotations are not otherwise available are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by Hotchkis and Wiley (the "Advisor") under procedures
established by the Board of Trustees. Short-term investments which mature in
less than 60 days are valued at amortized cost (unless the Board of Trustees
determines that this method does not represent fair value), if their original
maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing the values as of the 61st day
prior to maturity, if their original term to maturity exceeded 60 days.
Investments quoted in foreign currency are valued daily in U.S. dollars on the
basis of the foreign currency exchange rate prevailing at the time of valuation.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with banks
or broker-dealers that meet credit guidelines established by the Board of
Trustees. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the
Funds' policy that the custodian take possession of the underlying collateral
securities, the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase
transaction, including accrued interest. If the seller defaults, and the value
of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be
delayed or limited.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS: The books and records of the Funds are maintained
in U.S. dollars. For the International Fund and the Global Equity Fund, foreign
currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(i) market value of investment securities, assets and liabilities at the daily
rates of exchange, and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities,
dividend and interest income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange
prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The International Fund
and the Global Equity Fund do not isolate and treat as ordinary income that
portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the
exchange rate from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of
securities held during the period. However, for federal income tax purposes, the
International Fund and the Global Equity Fund do isolate and treat as ordinary
income the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising from actual
foreign currency transactions and the effect of changes in foreign exchange
rates arising from trade date and settlement date differences.
FORWARD CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS: The International Fund and the Global
Equity Fund utilize forward currency exchange contracts for the purpose of
hedging foreign currency risk on unsettled trades. Under these contracts, they
are obligated to exchange currencies at specific future dates. Risks arise from
the possible inability of counter-parties to meet the terms of their contracts
and from movements in currency values. At December 31, 1997, the International
Fund had open forward currency receivables of $4,224. Net unrealized losses of
$149 have been recorded on these open forwards at December 31, 1997 for the
International Fund.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is each Fund's policy to meet the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and
45
<PAGE> 53
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
December 31, 1997
each Fund intends to distribute investment company net taxable income and net
capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is
required.
EXPENSE ALLOCATION: Common expenses incurred by the Funds are allocated among
the Funds based upon (i) relative average net assets, (ii) as incurred on a
specific identification basis, or (iii) evenly among the Funds, depending on the
nature of the expenditure.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES: The Balanced, Total Return Bond, Low Duration, and
Short-Term Investment Funds own investment securities which are unregistered and
thus restricted as to resale. These securities are valued by the Funds after
giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales,
market conditions and the issuer's financial performance. Where future
disposition of these securities requires registration under the Securities Act
of 1933, the Funds have the right to include these securities in such
registration, generally without cost to the Funds. The Funds have no right to
require registration of unregistered securities. The Balanced, Total Return
Bond, Low Duration, and Short-Term Investment Funds had restricted securities
with an aggregate market value of $5,671,042, $1,519,929, $31,031,809, and
$1,975,375, respectively, representing 5.4%, 8.3%, 15.9%, and 9.0% of the net
assets of each Fund, respectively.
WHEN-ISSUED SECURITIES: The Funds may purchase securities on a when-issued or
delayed delivery basis. Although the payment and interest terms of these
securities are established at the time the purchaser enters into the agreement,
these securities may be delivered and paid for at a future date, generally
within 45 days. The Fund records purchases of when-issued securities and
reflects the values of such securities in determining net asset value in the
same manner as other portfolio securities. The Fund segregates and maintains at
all times cash or other liquid assets in an amount at least equal to the amount
of outstanding commitments for when-issued securities.
USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
OTHER: Security and shareholder transactions are recorded on trade date.
Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated on the
identified cost basis. Dividend income and dividends and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized
on the accrual basis. Generally accepted accounting principles require that
permanent financial reporting and tax differences relating to shareholder
distributions be reclassified to paid in capital.
NOTE 2.
INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS. Each Fund has an investment advisory agreement
with the Advisor. The Advisor receives a fee, computed daily and payable
monthly, at the annual rates presented below as applied to each Fund's daily net
assets. The Advisor
46
