TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS,
We are pleased to provide the March 31, 2000, semi-annual report for the
Gabelli Westwood Funds, including the Equity Fund, Balanced Fund, Intermediate
Bond Fund, SmallCap Equity Fund, Realty Fund and Mighty Mites(SM) Fund.
MARKET COMMENTARY
The "new economy", which emerged in 1999, continued to be the driving
force in the equity market during most of the last six months. Reduced fears of
a Y2K disruption, strong earnings reports, and investor enthusiasm for all
things technological carried over from the fourth quarter of 1999 into the first
quarter of the new millennium. The technology-driven Nasdaq and Russell 2000
indices hit new highs early in 2000, while the "old economy" Dow Jones
Industrial Average did not fare as well. Even the Standard &Poor's ("S&P") 500
Index, which has components of both the "old" and the "new" economies, did not
perform nearly as well through February of this year. By early March, the
out-performance of three Nasdaq sectors (biotech, telecommunications and
computer) versus the S&P 500 reached historic levels, attracting tens of
billions of dollars into aggressive growth funds.
The narrow focus of equity performance abruptly reversed toward the end
of the first quarter. The rally in technology stocks began to unwind on March
14, and the Nasdaq corrected nearly 10% by quarter end. The disparity in
performance between large and small companies narrowed. The S&P 500 gained 10.3%
from March 14 to quarter end, while the Russell 2000 lost 12.7%. The Westwood
Funds were positioned to benefit from this "return to sanity" in stock
valuations.
The U.S. economy showed few signs of slowing down during the last six
months, driven by an expanding manufacturing sector and robust consumer
spending. Low unemployment and positive real inflation-adjusted wage growth
fueled continued high levels of consumer confidence and spending. To ward off
potential inflation, the Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed") maintained its 1999
gradualist approach toward raising short term interest rates, tightening 0.25%
in November, in February and again in March. U.S. Treasury interest
rates rose over 1% for maturities under two years, while rates on
intermediate maturities increased proportionately less. The yield
on the 30-year bond, however, declined 0.22%, as bonds rallied

PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. Total returns and average
annual returns reflect changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and
are net of expenses. The net asset value of the Fund is reduced on the
ex-dividend (payment) date by the amount of the dividend paid. Investment
returns and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. When shares are
redeemed they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance of
service class shares does not reflect the effect of the maximum 4% front end
sales charge. (See performance table on page 27.)

after the Treasury announced a plan to reduce the supply of longer dated issues
this year as a result of the budget surplus. The rise in short-term rates
accompanied by a decline in longer rates resulted in an inverted yield curve by
quarter end.
EQUITY FUND
For the six months ended March 31, 2000, the Equity Fund Retail Class'
total return was 13.93% and the Service Class' total return was 13.72%. The
Standard & Poor's ("S&P") 500 Index and the Lipper Multi-Cap Value Fund Average
had total returns of 17.50% and 5.64%, respectively, over the same six-month
period. The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged indicator of stock market performance,
while the Lipper Average reflects the average performance of mutual funds
classified in this particular category. The Retail Class was up 18.22% and the
Service Class was up 17.89% over the trailing twelve-month period. The S&P 500
and Lipper Multi-Cap Value Fund Average rose 17.93% and 8.13%, respectively,
over the same twelve-month period.
For the ten-year period ended March 31, 2000, the Retail Class' total
return averaged 16.12% annually versus average annual total returns of 18.82%
and 13.40% for the S&P 500 and Lipper Multi-Cap Value Fund Average,
respectively. Since their respective inception dates of January 2, 1987 and
January 28, 1994 through March 31, 2000, the Retail Class had a cumulative total
return of 571.16% and the Service Class had a cumulative total return of
192.35%, which equate to average annual total returns of 15.45% and 18.96%,
respectively.
The Fund had been positioned for a renewal of interest in companies whose
future growth potential had not been fully priced by the market. The Fund's
holdings in consumer cyclicals, energy and healthcare were some of the strongest
drivers of performance. We have been selective in the technology sector, the
source of several top performers. The Fund also benefited from merger
announcements -- evidence of the continuation of the trend toward consolidation
to maintain a competitive edge. Some of the top performing stocks were
technology holdings Hewlett-Packard and Sterling Software (acquired by Computer
Associates), consumer cyclicals Walt Disney and Time Warner (to be purchased by
America Online), and healthcare company Pharmacia (the company resulting from
Pharmacia & Upjohn's purchase of Monsanto). The Fund's long-term performance
record continues to be recognized by financial publications such as Morningstar,
which recently featured the fund in an article entitled "Buried Treasurers".
BALANCED FUND
For the six months ended March 31, 2000, the Balanced Fund Retail Class'
total return was 8.63% and the Service Class' total return was 8.53%. A blended
composite of 60% of the Standard & Poor's ("S&P") 500 and 40% of the Lehman
Brothers Government/Corporate Bond ("LBG/C") and the Lipper Balanced Fund
Average had total returns of 10.07% and 10.27%, respectively, over the same
six-month period. Each index is an unmanaged indicator of investment
performance. The Retail Class was up 11.12% and the Service Class was up 10.78%
over the trailing twelve-month period. A blended composite of 60% of the
Standard & Poor's ("S&P") 500 and 40% of the Lehman Brothers
Government/Corporate Bond ("LBG/C") and the Lipper Balanced Fund Average had
total returns of 11.44% and 10.45%, respectively, over the same twelve-month
period. Each index is an unmanaged indicator of investor performance, while the
Lipper Average reflects the average performance of mutual funds classified in
this particular category.
2
<PAGE>
For the five-year period ended March 31, 2000, the Retail Class' total
return averaged 17.31% annually and the Service Class' total return averaged
17.04% annually, versus average annual total returns of 18.90% and 15.34% for
the blended composite of 60% of the S&P 500 and 40% of the LBG/C Index and the
Lipper Balanced Fund Average, respectively. Since their respective inception
dates of October 1, 1991 and April 6, 1993 through March 31, 2000, the Retail
Class had a cumulative total return of 211.28% and the Service Class had a
cumulative total return of 159.00%, which equate to average annual total returns
of 14.28% and 14.59%, respectively.
The Balanced Fund is designed to give an investor exposure to equities
but reduce overall risk through investments in short-to-intermediate term fixed
income securities. Strategies for the Equity and Intermediate Bond Funds that
are discussed in this letter also apply to their respective components in the
Balanced Fund.
INTERMEDIATE BOND FUND
For the six-months ended March 31, 2000, the Intermediate Bond Fund's net
asset value rose 2.48%. The Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Bond ("LBG/C")
Index and the Lipper Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Fund Average returned
(1.07)% and 1.77%, respectively, over the same six-month period. The Lehman
Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index is an unmanaged indicator of investment
performance, while the Lipper Average reflects the average performance of mutual
funds classified in this particular category. The Fund was up 1.25% over the
trailing twelve-month period. The LBG/C and the Lipper Intermediate Investment
Grade Debt Fund Average rose 1.70% and 1.38%, respectively, over the same
twelve-month period.
For the five-year period ended March 31, 2000, the Fund's total return
averaged 6.56% annually versus average annual total returns of 7.13% and 6.55%
for the LBG/C Index and the Lipper Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Fund
Average, respectively. Since inception on October 1, 1991 through March 31,
2000, the Fund had a cumulative total return of 66.20%, which equates to an
average annual total return of 6.15%.
Several notable reversals occurred in the U.S. bond market between the
last quarter of 1999 and the opening quarter of 2000: (1) The yield curve
inverted as the Fed raised short-term rates and the Treasury began buying back
longer-term bonds; (2) Treasuries moved from under-performing to out-performing
corporates and mortgages; (3) Bond market returns shifted from negative to
positive territory. These reversals offered opportunities to make adjustments
that were beneficial to the Fund in the areas of interest rate sensitivity and
sector commitments. The top Fund performers over the six month period were
long-maturity Treasuries, corporate notes issued by the World Bank and by Kimco
Realty, and asset-backed securities from Ford Motor Credit and General Motors
Acceptance Corp.
SMALLCAP EQUITY FUND
For the six-months ended March 31, 2000, the SmallCap Equity Fund's total
return was 32.57%. The Russell 2000 Index and the Lipper Small-Cap Growth Fund
Average had total returns of 26.83% and 68.86%, respectively, over the same
six-month period. The Russell 2000 Index is an unmanaged indicator of investment
performance, while the Lipper Average reflects the average performance of mutual
funds in this particular category. The Fund rose 70.34% over the trailing
twelve-month period. The Russell 2000 and the Lipper Small-Cap Growth Fund
Average rose 37.29% and 93.41%, respectively, over the same twelve-month period.
Since inception on April 15, 1997 through March 31, 2000, the Fund had a
cumulative total return of 151.22%, which equate to an average annual total
return of 36.44%.
3
<PAGE>
The small cap equity class out-performed the large cap for the six-month
period, despite the technology swoon in March. Consumer cyclical and interest
sensitive stocks rallied at quarter end when tech and biotech stocks began to
wane. The Fund was positioned to benefit from this paradigm shift with an
over-weighting in consumer cyclicals. After lagging as a sector toward the close
of 1999, energy stocks proved to be the stalwarts of the first quarter, as
investors demanded stocks that would benefit from rising oil prices. Some of the
Fund's top-performing stocks for the period were Protein Design Labs, Brooks
Automation, Cephalon, Credence Systems Corp. and Cytyc Corp. Many small cap
stocks are poised to benefit from the renewed interest in market breadth and
company earnings. Small cap stocks continue to report positive earnings
surprises and valuations remain attractive.
REALTY FUND
For the six-months ended March 31, 2000, the Realty Fund's net asset
value rose 5.57%. The National Association of REITs ("NAREIT") Index and the
Lipper Real Estate Fund Average rose 0.44% and 1.32%, respectively, over the
same six-month period. The NAREIT Index is an unmanaged indicator of investment
performance, while the Lipper Average reflects the average performance of mutual
funds classified in this particular category. The Fund rose 6.81% over the
trailing twelve-month period. The NAREIT Index and the Lipper Real Estate Fund
Average rose 0.76% and 2.87%, respectively, over the same twelve-month period.
Since inception on September 30, 1997 through March 31, 2000, the Fund had a
cumulative total return of (10.87)%, which equates to an average annual total
return of (4.49)%.
While investment flows remained relatively light during the first quarter
of 2000, REIT stocks started acting better. Lack of investor interest, coupled
with tax-loss selling, had contributed to weak fourth quarter performance by a
sector with strong earnings and solid fundamentals. Rising rents and high
occupancy rates have allowed real estate companies to grow steadily. Share
repurchase programs are expected to contribute positively to earnings, with
average yields approaching 10%. New deliveries in almost every property category
are likely to slow throughout 2000, a sign of generally healthy fundamentals.
Many REITs have announced or are actively pursuing new initiatives that will
allow them to unlock the technology potential of real estate for shareholders.
REIT valuations remain attractive, as many are still traded 20% below their net
asset value. We look for the share prices to more accurately reflect the
underlying values of the REITs in 2000. Out-performance is attributed to stock
selection, with the best performing stocks for the period being: Spieker
Properties, Meristar Hospitality Corp., SL Green Realty Corp., Catellus
Development Corp., and Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide.
MIGHTY MITES(SM) FUND
For the six-months ended March 31, 2000, the Mighty Mites Fund's total
return was 24.30%. The Russell 2000 Index and the Lipper Small-Cap Value Fund
Average had total returns of 26.83% and 7.94%, respectively, over the same
six-month period. The Russell 2000 Index is an unmanaged indicator of investment
performance, while the Lipper Average reflects the average performance of mutual
funds in this particular category. The Fund rose 46.28% over the trailing
twelve-month period. The Russell 2000 and the Small-Cap Value Fund Average rose
37.29% and 24.01%, respectively, over the same twelve-month period. Since
inception on May 11, 1998 through March 31, 2000, the Fund had a total return of
61.81%, which equates to an average annual return of 28.95%.

In the first quarter of 2000, small company stocks extended the rally
that began in the fourth quarter of 1999. Technology stocks were the strongest
performers, but other industry groups participated. Buoyed by two quarters of
excellent absolute and relative performance, micro-cap stocks are beginning to
attract much more investor attention. Money is flowing into this long
under-appreciated capitalization sector and providing a performance tailwind.
At issue today is whether small company stocks can continue to outperform
if the broad market cracks under pressure from rising short term interest rates.
In recent years, small company stock rallies have been short-lived, with any
whiff of economic or market problems sending investors scurrying to the exits.
We think it will be different this time around. With the exception of the hot
technology group, small company stocks remain quite reasonably priced relative
to earnings growth rates. The investment public may remain skittish, but with
large financial institutions increasing their commitments to small company
stocks, we should see more stability in this sector.
We don't spend our time or energy trying to determine what the market
will do. We keep ourselves busy identifying small companies with big potential.
If we continue to be successful, we believe the Fund will provide generous long
term returns regardless of the vagaries of the stock market. We still have
plenty of cash available to pursue evolving opportunities and continue to find
small companies that we believe have exceptionally bright business and
investment prospects.
As is usually the case, the Fund's winners this quarter came from a wide
range of industries including technology (Oak Technology and Tetra
Technologies), biotechnology (Matrix Pharmaceutical), gaming (Jackpot
Enterprises), tea (Celestial Seasonings) and auto painting (Earl Scheib). Our
losers were an equally diverse mix including a utility (Florida Public
Utilities) a paint company (Benjamin Moore) and a retailer (Schultz Sav-O
Stores).
CAPITAL MARKET OUTLOOK
Westwood's capital markets analysis remains an important tool for
assessing the risk/reward relationship for the various asset classes in which we
invest on behalf of our shareholders. We see the most likely economic scenario
for 2000 as one of "holding the line." We believe that the manufacturing sector
will continue to rebound as global demand for exports increases. We expect that
global economies, including Japan, will show positive growth. We see consumer
consumption remaining healthy, but moderating to a more sustainable pace as Fed
rate increases take effect later in the year. Inflation may tick up slightly,
but should remain modest.
MINIMUM INITIAL INVESTMENT - $1,000
The Fund's minimum initial investment for both regular and retirement
accounts is $1,000. There are no subsequent investment minimums. No initial
minimum is required for those establishing an Automatic Investment Plan.
MULTI-CLASS SHARES
The Board of Trustees has authorized The Gabelli Westwood Funds to begin
offering Class B and Class C Shares, which will be available at net asset value
and subject to a contingent deferred sales charge if sold within a designated
time period. Our Retail Class will remain no-load and will be redesignated
5
<PAGE>
as Class AAA Shares and the Service Class will be redesignated as Class A
Shares. The Board of Trustees determined that expanding the types of fund shares
available through various distribution options will enhance the ability of the
Funds to attract additional investors.

had no Class A, Class B or Class C Shares outstanding, with the exception of
Equity Fund Class A Shares and Balanced Fund Class A Shares. Each class of
shares outstanding bears the same voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights
and conditions, except that the expense incurred in the distribution and
marketing of such shares are different for each class. The Gabelli Westwood Cash
Management Fund has not commenced operations.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. 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 those estimates.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.
SECURITY VALUATION. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally
recognized securities exchange, quoted by the National Association of Securities
Dealers Automated Quotations, Inc. ("Nasdaq") or traded on foreign exchanges are
valued at the last sale price on that exchange as of the close of business on
the day the securities are being valued (if there were no sales that day, the
security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if
there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at
the closing bid price on that day, except for open short positions, which are
issued at the last asked price). All other portfolio securities for which
over-the-counter market quotations are readily available are valued at the
latest average of the bid and asked prices. Portfolio securities traded on more
than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the
broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Advisers, LLC
(the "Adviser"). Securities and assets for which market quotations are not
readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith
under procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board
of Trustees. Short term debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or
less are valued at amortized cost, unless the Trustees determine such does not
reflect the securities' fair value, in which case these securities will be
valued at their fair value as determined by the Trustees. Debt instruments
having a maturity greater than 60 days are valued at the highest bid price
obtained from a dealer maintaining an active market in those securities.
ACCOUNTING FOR REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUSTS. The Funds own shares of real
estate investment trusts ("REITS") which report information on the source of
their distributions annually. Distributions received from REITS during the year
which are known to be a return of capital are recorded as a reduction to the
cost of the individual REIT.
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME. Securities transactions are
accounted for on the trade date with realized gain or loss on investments
determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including
amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded as earned.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends from net investment
income are declared and paid annually for the Equity Fund, SmallCap Equity Fund
and Mighty Mites Fund, and quarterly for the Balanced Fund and Realty Fund. The
Intermediate Bond Fund declares dividends daily and pays those dividends
monthly. Distributions of net realized gain on investments are normally declared
and paid at least annually by each Fund. Dividends and distributions to
shareholders

================================================================================
are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions and capital gain
distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may
differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are
primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment
securities held by the Funds, timing differences and differing characterization
of distributions made by the Funds.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The Funds intend to continue to qualify as regulated
investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. By so qualifying, the Funds will not be subject to federal income taxes
to the extent that they distribute all of their taxable income for the fiscal
year.
DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE AND CALCULATION OF EXPENSES. Expenses directly
attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Other expenses are allocated
proportionately among each Fund within the Trust in relation to the net assets
of each Fund or on another reasonable basis. In calculating net asset value per
share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses
and expenses other than class specific expenses, are allocated daily to each
class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the
beginning of each day. Distribution expenses are solely borne by the class
incurring the expense.
CONCENTRATION RISK. The Realty Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets
in REITS, therefore it may be more affected by economic developments in the real
estate industry than would a general equity fund.
3. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS. On July 27, 1994, Westwood Management Corp.
("Westwood") entered into an agreement with Gabelli Funds, LLC to form a new
limited liability company, Teton Advisers LLC ("Teton"). On October 6, 1994,
Teton entered into a sub-advisory agreement with Westwood (the "Sub-Adviser").
The terms of the sub-advisory agreement state that Westwood would continue to
manage the assets of the Funds. Teton became the investment adviser to the Funds
and is responsible for overseeing Westwood's activities. On November 7, 1997,
the members of Teton approved a change in name to Gabelli Advisers LLC.
Additionally, on November 18, 1997, the Board of Trustees approved a change in
name of The Westwood Funds to The Gabelli Westwood Funds to reflect the more
closely aligned relationship with the Gabelli family of funds. As of March 2,
1998, Gabelli Advisers LLC converted to a "C" corporation and is now known as
Gabelli Advisers, Inc. (the "Adviser").
The Funds have entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory
Agreement") with the Adviser which provides that the Funds will pay the Adviser
a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% for the
Equity Fund, SmallCap Equity Fund, Realty Fund and Mighty Mites Fund, 0.75% for
the Balanced Fund, and 0.60% for the Intermediate Bond Fund, of each Fund's
average daily net assets. The Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its
investment advisory fee and/or reimburse expenses to the Intermediate Bond Fund,
SmallCap Equity Fund, Realty Fund and Mighty Mites Fund in the event annual
expenses of such Funds exceed certain prescribed limits. Such fee
waiver/reimbursement arrangement will continue until at least September 30,
2000. For the six months ended March 31, 2000, the Adviser was entitled to fees
of $817,487; $141,843; $8,067; $66,137; $609,799 and $18,012 for the Equity,
SmallCap Equity, Realty, Mighty Mites, Balanced and Intermediate Bond Funds,
respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2000, the Adviser reimbursed
expenses in the amount of $23,869; $6,504; $16,264 and $36,276, respectively.

================================================================================
The Funds, with the exception of the Mighty Mites Fund, have also entered into a
sub-advisory agreement with the Sub-Adviser whereby the Adviser pays the
Sub-Adviser the greater of $150,000 per year on an aggregate basis for the Funds
or a fee of 35% of net revenues to the Adviser from the Funds. For the six
months ended March 31, 2000, the Adviser paid to the Sub-Adviser fees of
$235,816; $39,805; $2,271; $157,305 and $4,143 for the Equity, SmallCap Equity,
Realty, Balanced and Intermediate Bond Funds, respectively.
4. DISTRIBUTION PLAN. The Funds have adopted an amended and restated
distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.
Gabelli & Company, Inc. ("Gabelli & Company"), an affiliate of Gabelli Asset
Management Inc., serves as distributor of the Funds. The Plan authorizes payment
by the Funds to Gabelli & Company in connection with the distribution of its
Retail Class shares at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets
of those Funds each fiscal year. Such payments are accrued daily and paid
monthly. For the six months ended March 31, 2000, the Funds incurred
distribution expenses in the amounts of $201,643; $191,876; $7,505; $35,461;
$2,017 and $16,239 for the Retail Class of the Equity, Balanced, Intermediate
Bond, SmallCap Equity, Realty and Mighty Mites Funds, respectively.
Under the Plan for the Service Class, each of the Equity and Balanced Funds
authorize payment to Gabelli & Company in connection with the distribution of
its Service Class shares at an annual rate of 0.50% of the average daily net
assets of those funds each fiscal year. Such payments are accrued daily and paid
monthly. For the six months ended March 31, 2000, the Funds incurred
distribution expenses in the amounts of $5,457 for the Equity Fund and $22,780
for the Balanced Fund.
5. ORGANIZATIONAL EXPENSES. The organizational expenses of the Funds are being
amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 60 months from the
commencement of the respective Funds' investment operations.

or less than their original cost.
