LETTER TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
Dear Shareholder:
This annual report covers the period from January 1, 1998, through October
31, 1998, for the CitiFundsSM Intermediate Income Portfolio. This reporting
period reflects a recent change in the Portfolio's fiscal year, which now ends
on October 31. Accordingly, you will receive shareholder reports every six
months, as of April 30 and October 31 of each calendar year.
Much of the 10-month period ended October 31, 1998 saw a continuation of
generally positive economic conditions in the United States. However, over the
past several months, the spreading financial crisis overseas has caused prices
in the U.S. stock market and some sectors of the U.S. bond market to decline.
In our view, recent market volatility once again confirms the benefits of
diversification. By allocating your investment assets among a number of
different markets, you may be able to reduce the effects of heightened
volatility on your overall portfolio. In our view, CitiFunds Intermediate Income
Portfolio can play a valuable role as part of such a diversified investment
portfolio.
Thank you for your continued confidence and participation.
Sincerely,
/s/ Philip W. Coolidge
Philip W. Coolidge
President
November 20, 1998

PORTFOLIO ENVIRONMENT AND OUTLOOK
SO FAR, 1998 HAS PROVIDED MIXED RESULTS FOR FIXED-INCOME INVESTORS. A slowing
U.S. economy, persistently low inflation and declining long-term interest rates
have been good for prices of U.S. Treasury securities. These direct obligations
of the federal government rallied during the second and third quarters of 1998,
when it became clearer to investors that financial instability overseas would
prevent the U.S. economy from overheating and rekindling inflation pressures. In
fact, economic growth slowed substantially, and yields on U.S. Treasury bonds
fell to their lowest levels in more than 30 years. When yields decline, bond
prices rise and provide capital appreciation for investors.
OTHER TYPES OF FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES HAVE NOT BENEFITTED AS MUCH FROM THESE
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, however. That's because spreading financial instability
overseas has created a "flight to quality" among foreign and domestic investors,
who have generally avoided all sectors of the U.S. bond market except Treasury
securities. Prices of corporate bonds and even U.S. agency securities fell
relative to U.S. Treasury securities when risk-averse investors shifted their
assets away from these markets.
The Fund was well positioned to take advantage of these influences. In
anticipation of declining interest rates, we maintained the portfolio's AVERAGE
DURATION -- a measure of sensitivity to changing interest rates -- toward the
long end of its range. Accordingly, we were able to maintain higher yields as
interest rates fell. In addition, WE MAINTAINED OUR NEUTRAL ALLOCATIONS TO U.S.
TREASURY SECURITIES, CORPORATE BONDS AND MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES until
recently. As a result, we participated in this past summer's rally of the
Treasury market.
More recently, WE HAVE REPOSITIONED THE PORTFOLIO FOR THE MARKET CONDITIONS
THAT WE BELIEVE LIE AHEAD. Although we expect further declines in short-term
interest rates if the Federal Reserve Board continues to ease monetary policy in
response to economic weakness overseas, we believe that long-term interest rates
should remain near current levels. Accordingly, we have reduced the portfolio's
average duration to a more neutral position. This position should help us
capture higher yields more quickly if they become available. What's more, it is
our opinion that prices in the corporate bond and mortgage-backed securities
markets declined more than economic fundamentals currently warrant, creating
some compelling values in high-quality securities. Accordingly, we have shifted
some assets to these sectors from U.S. Treasuries.
Our economic outlook calls for slow growth, low inflation and an
accommodative monetary policy. In fact, the Federal Reserve Board has already
reduced key short-term interest rates twice over the past few months, their
first change in monetary policy since early 1997. Historically, these types of
conditions have generally been favorable for high-quality U.S. bonds. On the
other hand, we are aware of the dangers of continuing instability in overseas
markets. While we do not currently expect these international influences to stop
or reverse U.S. economic growth, we are monitoring the situation carefully. If
conditions change, we are prepared to reposition the portfolio to attempt to
capture the opportunities and avoid the risks that the future may bring.

CITIFUNDS INTERMEDIATE INCOME PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES CitiFunds Intermediate Income Portfolio
(formerly Landmark Intermediate Income Fund) (the "Fund") is a separate
diversified series of CitiFunds Fixed Income Trust (the "Trust") which is
organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end, management
investment company. The Investment Manager of the Fund is Citibank, N.A.
("Citibank"). CFBDS, Inc. ("CFBDS") (formerly Landmark Funds Broker-Dealer
Services, Inc.) acts as the Fund's Sub-Administrator and Distributor.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual
results could differ from these estimates.
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and are as follows:
A. INVESTMENT SECURITY VALUATIONS Debt securities (other than short-term
obligations maturing in 60 days or less) are valued on the basis of valuations
furnished by a pricing service, which takes into account appropriate factors
such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield,
quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, and other market data, without
exclusive reliance upon quoted prices or exchange or over-the-counter prices,
since such valuations are believed to reflect more accurately the fair value of
the securities. Short-term obligations (maturing in 60 days or less) are valued
at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities, if any, for
which there are no such valuations or quotations are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under guidelines established by the Trustees.
B. INCOME Interest income is determined on the basis of interest accrued and
discount earned, adjusted for amortization of premium or discount on long-term
debt securities when required for Federal income tax purposes. Gain and loss
from principal paydowns are recorded as ordinary income.
C. FEDERAL TAXES The Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute to shareholders all of its taxable income, including any net realized
gain on investment transactions. Accordingly, no provision for federal income or
excise tax is necessary. At October 31, 1998, the Fund, for federal income tax
purposes, had a capital loss carryover of $2,218,509 of which $1,142,935 will
expire on October 31, 2002 and $1,075,574 which will expire on October 31, 2004.
Such capital loss carryover will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from
future net realized gain on investment transactions, if any, to the extent
permitted by the Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the
distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the
Fund of any liability for federal income or excise tax.

CITIFUNDS INTERMEDIATE INCOME PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
D. EXPENSES The Fund bears all costs of its operations other than expenses
specifically assumed by Citibank and CFBDS. Expenses incurred by the Trust with
respect to any two or more funds or series are allocated in proportion to the
average net assets of each fund, except when allocations of direct expenses to
each fund can otherwise be made fairly. Expenses directly attributable to a fund
are charged to that fund.
E. DISTRIBUTIONS The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis
and a financial reporting basis and requires that only distributions in excess
of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a
return of capital. Differences in the recognition or classification of income
between the financial statements and tax earnings and profits which result in
temporary over-distributions for financial statement purposes, are classified as
distributions in excess of net investment income or accumulated net realized
gains.
F. CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR END During fiscal year 1998, the Fund changed its
fiscal year end from December 31 to October 31. G. Repurchase Agreements It is
the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have
legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System or to have
segregated within the custodial bank's vault, all securities held as collateral
in support of repurchase agreement investments. Additionally, procedures have
been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of
the repurchase agreement's underlying investments to ensure the existence of a
proper level of collateral.
H. FUTURES CONTRACTS The Fund may engage in futures transactions. The Fund
may use futures contracts in order to protect the Fund from fluctuations in
interest rates without actually buying or selling debt securities, or to manage
the effective maturity or duration of fixed income securities in the Fund's
portfolio in an effort to reduce potential losses or enhance potential gains.
Buying futures contracts tends to increase the Fund's exposure to the underlying
instrument. Selling futures contracts tends to either decrease the Fund's
exposure to the underlying instrument, or to hedge other fund investments.
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. The daily
changes in contract value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses and the
Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed. Futures
contracts are valued at the settlement price established by the board of trade
or exchange on which they are traded.
There are several risks in connection with the use of futures contracts as a
hedging device. The change in the value of futures contracts primarily
corresponds with the value of their underlying instruments, which may not
correlate with the change in the value of the hedged instruments. In addition,
there is the risk the
12
<PAGE>
CITIFUNDS INTERMEDIATE INCOME PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid
secondary market. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in
excess of the futures variation margin reflected in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities.
H. OTHER Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the
investments are purchased or sold. Realized gains and losses are determined on
the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders and shares issuable to
shareholders electing to receive distributions in shares are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
I. FEES PAID INDIRECTLY The Fund's custodian bank calculates its fees based
on the Fund's average daily net assets. The fee is reduced according to a fee
arrangement, which provides for custody fees to be reduced based on a formula
developed to measure the value of cash deposited with the custodian by the Fund.
This amount is shown as a reduction of expense on the Statement of Operations.
2. MANAGEMENT FEES Citibank is responsible for overall management of the Fund's
business affairs, and has a Management Agreement with the Fund. Citibank also
provides certain administrative services to the Fund. These administrative
services include providing general office facilities and supervising the overall
administration of the Fund. CFBDS acts as Sub-Administrator and performs such
duties and receives such compensation from Citibank as from time to time is
agreed to by Citibank and CFBDS. Citibank is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Citigroup, Inc. Citigroup, Inc. was formed as a result of the merger of Citicorp
and Travelers Group, Inc. which was completed on October 8, 1998.
The management fees paid to Citibank, are accrued daily and payable monthly.
The management fee is computed at the annual rate of 0.70% of the Funds' average
daily net assets. The management fee amounted to $273,701 of which $165,498 was
voluntarily waived for the ten months ended October 31, 1998.
Prior to January 1, 1998, such services were provided under separate
investment advisory and administrative agreements. The investment advisory fee
was computed at the annual rate of 0.35% of average daily net assets, which
amounted to $137,525 of which $82,010 was voluntarily waived for the year ended
December 31, 1997. The administrative fee was computed at an annual rate of
0.25% of average daily net assets, which amounted to $98,232 of which $75,116
was voluntarily waived for the year ended December 31, 1997 (Note 5). The Trust
pays no compensation directly to any Trustee or any other officer who is
affiliated with the Sub-Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for
their services to the Trust from the Sub-Administrator or its affiliates.
3. DISTRIBUTION FEES The Fund has adopted a Service Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, in which the Fund pays
fees for distribution, sales and marketing and shareholder services at an annual
rate not to exceed 0.25% and 0.15%, respectively for the ten months ended
October 31, 1998 and the year ended December 31, 1997 of the Fund's average
daily net assets. The distribution fees amounted to $97,750 for the ten months
13

CITIFUNDS INTERMEDIATE INCOME PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
ended October 31, 1998 and $58,940 all of which was voluntarily waived for the
year ended December 31, 1997. (Note 5).
4. SHAREHOLDER SERVICING AGENTS FEE -- The Fund had entered into shareholder
servicing agreements with each Shareholder Servicing Agent pursuant to which the
Shareholder Servicing Agent acts as an agent for its customers and provides
other related services. For their services, each Shareholder Servicing Agent
received fees from the Fund, on an annualized basis, equal to 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of the Fund represented by shares owned during the
period by investors for whom such Shareholder Servicing Agent maintained a
servicing relationship. Shareholder Servicing Agents' fees amounted to $98,232
for the year ended December 31, 1997 (Note 5).
5. OTHER -- At a Special Meeting on October 24, 1997, the Shareholders of the
Fund approved a Management Agreement with Citibank, to provide administrative
services, and a new Rule 12b-1 Service Plan, both effective January 1, 1998.
These new agreements terminated the Fund's existing Administration, Distribution
and Service Plan Agreements.
6. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS Purchases and sales of securities, other
than short-term obligations, aggregated $84,626,936 and $53,919,012,
respectively for the ten months ended October 31, 1998.
7. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees
to issue an unlimited number of full and fractional shares of beneficial
interest (without par value). Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were
as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation $1,837,262
Gross unrealized depreciation (179,542)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation $1,657,720
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. LINE OF CREDIT The Fund, along with other CitiFunds entered into an ongoing
agreement with a bank which allows the Funds collectively to borrow up to $60
million for temporary or emergency purposes. Interest on borrowings, if any, is
charged to the specific fund executing the borrowing at the base rate of the
bank. The line of credit requires a quarterly payment of a commitment fee based
on the average daily unused portion of the line of credit. For the ten months
ended October 31, 1998 and for the year ended December 31, 1997, the commitment
fees allocated to the Fund were $153 and $165, respectively. Since the line of
credit was established there have been no borrowings.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
CITIFUNDS INTERMEDIATE INCOME PORTFOLIO:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the portfolio of investments, of CitiFunds Intermediate Income
Portfolio (the "Fund"), a separate series of CitiFunds Fixed Income Trust (the
"Trust") (a Massachusetts business trust), as of October 31, 1998, the related
statement of operations for the ten months ended October 31, 1998 and the year
ended December 31, 1997, the statement of changes in net assets for the ten
months ended October 31, 1998 and the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996,
and the financial highlights for the ten months ended October 31, 1998 and for
each of the years in the five-year period ended December 31, 1997. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Trust's management. Our responsibility 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
October 31, 1998, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where
replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures.
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 our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CitiFunds
Intermediate Income Portfolio at October 31, 1998, the results of its
operations, the changes in its net assets, and its financial highlights for the
respective stated periods in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
