PHOENIX-ENGEMANN FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2000 (UNAUDITED)

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

  The Phoenix-Engemann Funds (the "Trust") is organized as a Massachusetts
business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as a diversified, open-end management investment company. To date, five
Funds are offered for sale: Phoenix-Engemann Balanced Return Fund,
Phoenix-Engemann Focus Growth Fund, Phoenix-Engemann Nifty Fifty Fund, Phoenix-
Engemann Small & Mid-Cap Growth Fund and Phoenix-Engemann Value 25 Fund,
collectively referred to as the "Funds," are series of The Phoenix-Engemann
Funds. Each Fund represents an investment in a separate diversified fund with
its own investment objectives. BALANCED RETURN FUND seeks to maximize a total
investment return consistent with reasonable risk through a balanced approach.
FOCUS GROWTH FUND seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation. NIFTY FIFTY
FUND seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing in
approximately 50 different securities. SMALL & MID-CAP GROWTH FUND seeks to
achieve long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in a diversified
portfolio of equity securities of companies with market capitalizations below
$1.5 billion. VALUE 25 FUND seeks to achieve dividend income and long-term
growth of capital by investing in equity securities which the Adviser believes
offer the best potential for current dividend yield and long-term capital
appreciation.

  Each Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Class M shares have been
closed. Effective April 3, 2000, Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales
charge of up to 5.75%. Prior to that date, the maximum sales charge was 4.75%.
Class B shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge which declines
from 5% to zero depending on the period of time the shares are held. Class C
shares are sold with a 1% contingent deferred sales charge if redeemed within
one year of purchase. All classes of shares have identical voting, dividend,
liquidation and other rights and the same terms and conditions, except that each
class bears different distribution expenses and has exclusive voting rights with
respect to its distribution plan. Income and expenses of the Funds are borne pro
rata by the holders of all classes of shares, except that each class bears
distribution expenses unique to that class.

  The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A. SECURITY VALUATION:

  Equity securities are valued at the last sale price, or if there had been no
sale that day, at the last bid price. Debt securities are valued on the basis of
broker quotations or valuations provided by a pricing service which utilizes
information with respect to recent sales, market transactions in comparable
securities, quotations from dealers and various relationships between securities
in determining value. Short-term investments having a remaining maturity of
60 days or less are valued at amortized cost which approximates market. All
other securities and assets are valued at their fair value as determined in good
faith by or under the direction of the Trustees.

B. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME:

  Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Interest income is
recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date or, in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as the Trust is
notified. Realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis.
The Trust does not amortize premiums but does amortize discounts.

C. INCOME TAXES:

  Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. It is the policy of each
Fund to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code")
applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute all of its
taxable income to its shareholders. In addition, each Fund intends to distribute
an amount sufficient to avoid imposition of any excise tax under Section 4982 of
the Code. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes or excise taxes has
been made.

D. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS:

  Distributions are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and
capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These differences include the treatment of non-taxable dividends, expiring
capital loss carryforwards, foreign currency gain/loss, partnerships, operating
losses and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions
will result in reclassifications to paid in capital.

E. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION:

  Foreign securities and other assets and liabilities are valued using the
foreign currency exchange rate effective at the end of the reporting period.
Cost of investments is translated at the currency exchange rate effective at the
trade date. The gain or loss resulting from a change in currency exchange rates
between the trade and settlement dates of a portfolio transaction is treated as
a gain or loss on foreign currency. Likewise, the gain or loss resulting from a
change in currency exchange rates between the date income is accrued and paid is
treated as a gain or loss on foreign currency. The Trust does not

                                                                              33

separate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in the
exchange rates and that portion arising from changes in the market prices of
securities.

F. FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS:

  The Small & Mid-Cap Growth Fund and the Value 25 Fund may enter into forward
currency contracts in conjunction with the planned purchase or sale of foreign
denominated securities in order to hedge the U.S. dollar cost or proceeds.
Forward currency contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk
in excess of the amount recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Risks arise from the possible movements in foreign exchange rates or if the
counterparty does not perform under the contract.

  A forward currency contract involves an obligation to purchase or sell a
specific currency at a future date, which may be any number of days from the
date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of
the contract. These contracts are traded directly between currency traders and
their customers. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market
value is recorded by each Fund as an unrealized gain (or loss). When the
contract is closed or offset with the same counterparty, the Fund records a
realized gain (or loss) equal to the change in the value of the contract when it
was opened and the value at the time it was closed or offset.

G. FUTURES CONTRACTS:

  A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a
security at a set price on a future date. The Small & Mid-Cap Growth Fund and
the Value 25 Fund may enter into financial futures contracts as a hedge against
anticipated changes in the market value of their portfolio securities. Upon
entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker
an amount of cash and/or securities equal to the "initial margin" requirements
of the futures exchange on which the contract is traded. Pursuant to the
contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash
equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or
payments are known as daily variation margin and are recorded by the Fund as
unrealized gains and losses. 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 potential
risk to the Fund is that the change in value of the futures contract may not
correspond to the change in value of the hedged instruments.

H. OPTIONS:

  Each Fund may write covered options or purchase options contracts for purpose
of hedging against changes in the market value of the underlying securities or
foreign currencies. Additionally, each Fund may buy and sell options on domestic
and foreign securities indices for hedging purposes.

  Each Fund will realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the
option transaction. Gains and losses on written options are reported separately
in the Statement of Operations. When a written option is exercised, the proceeds
on sales or amounts paid are adjusted by the amount of premium received. Options
written are reported as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities
and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option.
The risk associated with written options is that the change in value of options
contracts may not correspond to the change in value of the hedged instruments.
In addition, losses may arise from changes in the value of the underlying
instruments, or if a liquid secondary market does not exist from the contracts.

  Each Fund may purchase options which are included in the Fund's Schedule of
Investments and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of
the option. When a purchased option is exercised, the cost of the security is
adjusted by the amount of premium paid. The risk associated with purchased
options is limited to the premium paid.

I. EXPENSES:

  Expenses incurred by the Trust with respect to any two or more Funds are
allocated in proportion to the net assets of each Fund, except where allocation
of direct expense to each Fund or an alternative allocation method can be more
fairly made.

J. LOAN AGREEMENTS:

  The Funds may invest in direct debt instruments which are invested in amounts
owed by a corporation, governmental, or other borrower to lenders or lending
syndicates. The Funds' investments in loans may be in the form of participations
in loans or assignments of all or a portion of loans from third parties. A loan
is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the lender) that
acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as
specified in the loan agreement. When investing in a loan participation, the
Funds have the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to
which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only
upon receipt by the lender of payments from the borrower. The Funds generally
have no right to enforce compliance with the terms of the loan agreement with
the borrower. As a result, the Funds may be subject to the credit risk of both
the borrower and lender that is selling the loan agreement. For loans which the
Funds are a participant, the Funds may not sell their participation in the loan
without the lender's prior consent. When the Funds purchase assignments from
lenders it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the loan. Direct
indebtedness of emerging countries

involves a risk that the government entities responsible for the repayment of
the debt may be unable, or unwilling to pay the principal and interest when due.

4. CREDIT RISK

  In countries with limited or developing markets, investments may present
greater risks than in more developed markets and the prices of such investments
may be volatile. The consequences of political, social or economic changes in
these markets may have disruptive effects on the market prices of these
investments and the income they generate, as well as a fund's ability to
repatriate such amounts.

5. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVERS

  The following Funds have capital loss carryovers, expiring in 2006, which may
be used to offset future capital gains.
