TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:

Second Quarter Performance
We are pleased to report the Longleaf Partners family of funds posted one of its
best quarterly results ever, with each Fund producing high absolute, real
returns for the three months ended June 30, 1999, and performing well against
market benchmarks. Although the Longleaf Funds operate in four distinct arenas,
their returns were remarkably similar.

Horace's quote which we cited in our last report -- "Many shall be restored that
are now fallen, and many shall fall that are now in honor"-- proved prophetic. A
number of our undervalued businesses rose significantly in the second quarter
while most of the formerly popular Internet market leaders collapsed.

We implore our partners to remember that ANNUAL long-term equity returns have
averaged 12%. Many, many quarters may pass before all four Longleaf Funds again
produce results in excess of stocks' long-term performance, and accomplish the
feat over a three month span. Longleaf's investment partners had much to
celebrate this Fourth of July.

How the High Market Affects Us
Ben Graham, describing past bull markets in Chapter 8 of the fourth edition of
The Intelligent Investor, wrote:

     Nearly all the bull markets had a number of well-defined
     characteristics in common, such as (1) a historically high price
     level, (2) high price/earnings ratios, (3) low dividend yields as
     against bond yields, (4) much speculation on margin, and (5) many
     offerings of new common-stock issues of poor quality.

The current bull market, measured by the S & P 500 Index, has no peer, and the
persistently good investment environment has dulled even the bears' view of
risk.

- - Assuming 1999 ends with positive performance, stocks will have gone up nine
  consecutive years. Equities previously never had risen more than six years
  without posting a down period.

- - Stocks have climbed from the lows of 1990 approximately 465%, a rate of 21.8%
  annually when dividends are reinvested.

- - Equities sell at the highest multiple of trailing earnings ever -- 36 times.

- - This unprecedented P/E ratio is being assigned to the highest level of
  profitability in corporate history. Operating profit margins and returns on
  equity capital have never exceeded current levels.

- - After-tax earnings yields are only half the yields on long-term Treasuries.
  Dividend yields are inconsequential.

- - Frenetic day trading has grown to become a meaningful percentage of Wall
  Street's daily volume.

- - Internet IPO's are being floated with such frequency that most new student
  entrepreneurs believe any reasonable MBA.COM idea should make them
  billionaires.

How should we react to this unprecedented market environment? The risk of losing
significant capital is high if you own the market or if you own companies with
no margin of safety between their prices and their values. Our operations will
not change. We will sell stocks when they reach our appraisals. We will purchase
new positions only when we find qualifying businesses managed by competent
individuals at prices below 60% of intrinsic value. If we cannot find such
stocks, cash reserves will build. This has been the case in the Partners Fund,
which closed to new investors on June 1 to limit inflows.

Patience and discipline are our weapons against the grossly elevated levels of
big company stocks. Either the general market will correct, or individual
businesses will temporarily be mispriced. We are ready to take advantage of
either case. Our research resources are substantial, and our efforts are acutely
focused.

This supercharged market environment has not eroded the opportunities in our
other three Funds. The market's broadening in the second quarter did not erase
the dichotomy between large cap equities and everything else. The International,
Realty, and Small-Cap Funds are fully invested and cash inflows are being
deployed in businesses selling at steep discounts to their appraisals. The price
of each Fund relative to its underlying value is 60% or less. We are continuing
to increase our personal stakes in the Realty and International Funds, where the
values are most compelling.

                             LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

A Tribute to our Partners
We have some of the most astute and involved investors in the industry, and we
appreciate your support. We had another crowded Partners Meeting in May with
over 400 shareholders from across the country. We thank you for the effort many
of you made to be with us.

The press recently has written about the demise of mutual funds, lower inflows,
and record redemption levels. It is appropriate that Longleaf's investment
partners are contrarian. We had net inflows both in 1998 and through the second
quarter of 1999 in all four funds. With two closed funds, 39% of our asset
growth has come from cash inflows over the last six months. We take your
commitment seriously and in turn commit that we will encourage long-term
partners who embrace our philosophy and discourage speculators who chase
performance.

Sincerely,

                     PARTNERS FUND - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
                by Mason Hawkins, Staley Cates, and John Buford

During the second quarter, Longleaf Partners Fund rose 14.2%, more than twice
the S&P 500 Index's 7% return. The Partners Fund is up 21.3% for the first six
months of 1999. We would gladly accept our current performance for all of 1999.

Our top five holdings at the quarter's outset -- FDX, Marriott, Philips, United
Healthcare, and Seagram -- provided over 40% of the quarter's return and have
contributed almost 60% of 1999's performance. We continue to be rewarded for our
buying activity in 1998's third quarter market decline when we purchased UNH and
added substantially to FDX, Marriott, and Philips.

In April we sold our stake in Seagram at prices between $50 and $65 per share
versus our original cost of $28. The negative opinion that the investing public
had of CEO Edgar Bronfman, Jr. enabled us to buy Seagram at a substantial
discount to our appraisal. Looking past public opinion, we determined that his
capital allocation record was excellent, and took solace in the Bronfman
family's 30% ownership stake. During our investment tenure Mr. Bronfman
substantially increased the value of the firm through the acquisition of
Universal Entertainment Group, the sale of Tropicana, and the sale of USA
Networks.

We also sold our stake in News Corp. early in the quarter after it appreciated
to our appraisal. We shifted our ownership in the Japanese non-life companies by
selling one entirely and reinvesting the cash into our two remaining positions.
As the depth of our overseas research grows, we are better able to assess our
management partners and their attention to building shareholder value, and we
can concentrate more confidently in fewer companies.

We began the quarter with 21% cash and ended it with 31%. Two-thirds of the
increase came from portfolio sales. As we discussed in the Letter to
Shareholders, few new investment opportunities emerged. We began buying Georgia
Pacific Timber Group, but the price rose before we could establish a full
position. We added to several of our holdings when their stocks dipped below 60%
of our appraisals. We closed the Partners Fund again when cash inflows began to
increase. We wanted to limit any dilution of our existing shareholders'
positions before it happened.

As significant owners in the Fund, holding cash is not our preference. Buying
businesses without the requisite margin of safety, however, appeals to us even
less. In past times when elusive qualifying investments caused cash to rise
above 20%, we found hard work and long patience very rewarding. We should also
emphasize that most of the Fund's assets are invested, and the companies we own
have very attractive appreciation opportunities.

                   INTERNATIONAL FUND - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
              by Mason Hawkins, Staley Cates, and Andrew McDermott

Longleaf Partners International Fund continued its strong performance in the
second quarter. The Fund returned 15.7% versus 2.2% for the EAFE Index. Since
inception last October, the Fund has grown from $27 million in assets to over
$240 million while returning 33.6% against EAFE's 14.4%.

The portfolio's strength was broad-based with most positions positively
contributing to performance. Gulf Canada, our second largest holding, provided
over 20% of the Fund's return. The stock has more than doubled from its low at
the end of last year as the gross undervaluation of Gulf's quality assets has
been partially recognized. With Gulf included, our top ten positions at the
quarter's outset accounted for over 85% of the International Fund's return.

The Fund's largest contributors benefited from the recovery in both pricing and
sentiment for various global commodities, particularly oil and diamonds. We are
not commodity traders and do not pretend to know the long-term outlook for these
products. We selected these companies because they were cheap, even using
prevailing depressed commodity prices, and because they are run by exceptional
partners who can build value during a downturn. Our appraisals have continued to
rise and our partners are poised to take advantage of a more positive market.
These companies, consequently, remain incredible values despite their stocks'
recent increases.

Japanese investments represent roughly one third of the portfolio, but
contributed only 15% of the return. The Japanese market has continued to
recover, outperforming most other developed world markets. We have two types of
holdings: non-life insurance companies and industrials such as Nippon
Broadcasting, Kentucky Fried Chicken Japan, and our newest position, MOS Food
Services, which sells Japanese style hamburgers and is the most shareholder-
oriented company we have met in Japan. The industrials have delivered high
single digit or double-digit returns this year while the non-life's are flat.
This divergence has made the non-lifes even more attractive than they were when
we began our research in Japan because they hold large portfolios of Japanese
equities that broadly reflect the Nikkei Index. The Nikkei's 26% rise this year
has added nearly 10% to our average non-life's appraisal before accounting for
the growth in the underlying insurance businesses. With prices flat, the
non-lifes' discounts to intrinsic value have increased during a period in which
we have become more knowledgeable about individual managements.

We added five new holdings in the second quarter.  Despite the recovery of many
world markets, we are finding numerous opportunities, particularly in Northern
Europe, where we have added one name and are researching several

interesting ideas. We also added our first Latin American position: Argentinean
sovereign U.S. dollar denominated bonds. A liquidity crunch combined with
misrepresentations concerning the demise of Argentina's currency board drove
sovereign yields well over 13% during the quarter, despite Argentina's
demonstrated commitment to a sound currency, its political consensus on economic
reform, a continuing privatization drive, and a recent history of real,
domestic-led GDP growth without excessive leverage.

During the quarter many new partners joined us in the Fund, and the cash inflows
benefited all shareholders by enabling us to buy some of the companies mentioned
above and to increase our holdings in existing positions. Given the abundance of
qualifying foreign investment opportunities, we are adding to our stakes in the
International Fund. We encourage our partners to do the same.

                      REALTY FUND - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
              by C.T. Fitzpatrick, Mason Hawkins, and Staley Cates

Longleaf Partners Realty Fund increased 14.5% in the second quarter compared to
10.9% for the Wilshire Real Estate Securities Index and 10.6% for the NAREIT
Index. The strong second quarter brought the year-to-date return to 5.9% through
June.

Almost every company in the portfolio appreciated during the quarter, and three
of our holdings, Excel Legacy, TimberWest, and Prime Group, provided over 36% of
the return. Excel Legacy, our largest holding at the quarter's outset, announced
progress on several projects including its Los Arcos, AZ and Anaheim, CA
developments. TimberWest with timber assets in British Columbia is our fifth
largest position. The company continued its 1999 rebound as the economies in
TimberWest's markets have begun to recover. Prime Group, the Chicago office
REIT, has benefited from strong operations in a rising market and from smart
acquisition and development decisions.

During the quarter we sold two small and more fully priced holdings, Alexandria
Real Estate and Park Place Entertainment, to increase our stakes in several of
our most undervalued core positions. The Realty Fund's most significant
portfolio change was doubling our stake in Promus, which is now our largest
holding. The company announced that strengthening the Doubletree brand would
slow earnings growth from a mid-teens to a single digit rate over the next 18
months. This change slightly reduced our appraisal, but greatly impacted the
stock, which dropped from $37 1/4 to a low of $23 3/4. We seized this
discrepancy by taking Promus from 3.5% to 7.5% of the Fund. We have been
rewarded in the short run as Promus rebounded to almost $28 by quarter end.

Some may have interpreted Promus' price decline as bad for the Realty Fund.
Nothing could be further from the truth. The stock's volatility enhanced the
Fund's return opportunity -- we were able to increase our stake in one of the
world's premier hotel franchising companies at a more advantageous discount. As
Promus' value grows and its price moves toward our appraisal, we should enjoy
outstanding long-term returns.

With real estate's rise after twelve months of negative returns, many have
asked, "Has real estate turned the corner?" We manage the Fund the same
way -- in bull markets and bear markets, whether real estate is in favor or out
of favor. As owners, however, we are glad to see some recognition of the
tremendous gap between our companies' prices and their values. We would call the
recent rebound moderate -- real estate remains depressed compared to its
fundamentals. Even after the quarter's rise, the Realty Fund's NAV is still 60%
of our appraisal.

              by C.T. Fitzpatrick, Mason Hawkins, and Staley Cates

This wide margin of safety does not imply that short-term volatility is over.
When price fluctuations occur, we will take advantage of them.

In closing, we thank our long-term partners who take the time to understand our
approach. All our investment partners have benefited from the net inflows over
the last eighteen months. We are readily finding qualifying investments for the
cash coming in now. The stability of our Fund allows us to act independently and
greatly enhances our ability to implement intelligent capital allocation
decisions.

                     SMALL-CAP FUND - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
                by Mason Hawkins, Staley Cates, and John Buford

During the second quarter, Longleaf Partners Small-Cap Fund continued its
successful compounding record. The Fund rose 13.8% in the quarter, and Small-
Cap posted a year-to-date return of 10.6% versus the Russell 2000 Index's 9.3%
return in 1999.

Most of the businesses in the portfolio appreciated during the quarter as the
market's overall performance broadened. Eight of our top ten holdings provided
over 60% of the quarter's return, led by gains at Gulf Canada and Wisconsin
Central. Gulf Canada made great strides in strengthening its balance sheet and
meaningfully cutting costs. In addition, rising oil prices moved the market's
sentiment. In spite of Gulf Canada's appreciation, the company still sells for
significantly less than its value based on its reserves and securities.
Wisconsin Central is increasing its EW&S stake (the United Kingdom's only cargo
rail system) at a very attractive price, and is continuing to make improvements
to its operations. WCLX's traffic in its U.S. markets also grew. The management
team owns over 15% of this company and will continue to use its expertise in
building value through rail assets.

Our largest holding, Promus Hotels, fell during the quarter when the company
announced slower than expected growth. Although expansion of the Doubletree
brand will not be as fast as anticipated, the free cash flow generated by its
other brands is growing in the mid-teens, and the company is selling
significantly below the value of its core franchising business. In addition,
management has aggressively repurchased shares. We also took advantage of the
temporary stock decline by adding to our stake.

Our other major position that declined during the quarter was Midas. Although
same-store sales were weak, the new management made great progress in improving
franchisee relations.

We are continuing our effort to concentrate in our twenty best domestic
businesses. The Fund has decreased its holdings to 30 stocks. We sold four
companies that represented 3% of assets, including the last three Japanese
securities in the Fund. Our only remaining foreign exposure consists of Canadian
headquartered businesses in oil, real estate, and timber.

During the quarter we increased our stakes in several of our most undervalued
businesses and added two new companies. Since the end of the quarter, we have
begun buying an additional new holding. The trading desk has orders pending that
will use the Fund's remaining cash.

                     SMALL-CAP FUND - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION
                by Mason Hawkins, Staley Cates, and John Buford

The second quarter's small stock rally and the performance at the companies we
own was gratifying. Even better, this appreciation did not dim the Fund's future
prospects. We continue to find a large number of qualifying businesses, the Fund
is fully invested, and the price-to-value ratio remains below historic levels.

                            LONGLEAF PARTNERS FUNDS
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

The Funds are each a series of Longleaf Partners Funds Trust, a Massachusetts
business trust which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as an open-end non-diversified investment company. Capitalization for
each fund was provided by principals of Southeastern Asset Management, Inc., the
Investment Counsel.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management Estimates
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles for the investment company industry; these
principles may require the use of estimates by Fund management.

Security Valuation
  (1) Portfolio securities listed or traded on a securities exchange and
      over-the-counter securities traded on the NASDAQ national market are
      valued at the last sales price. If there are no transactions in the
      security that day, securities are valued at the midpoint between the
      closing bid and ask prices.
  (2) All other portfolio securities for which over-the-counter market
      quotations are readily available are valued at the midpoint between the
      closing bid and ask prices. Repurchase agreements are valued at cost
      which, combined with accrued interest, approximates market. Short-term
      U.S. Government obligations are valued at amortized cost which
      approximates current market value.
  (3) Option contracts are marked-to-market daily. Listed options are valued at
      the latest closing price. If there are no transactions that day, the
      options are valued at the midpoint between the closing bid and ask prices.
      Over-the-counter options are valued as determined in good faith under
      procedures established by the Funds' trustees.
  (4) When market quotations are not readily available, portfolio securities are
      valued at their fair values as determined in good faith under procedures
      established by and under the general supervision of the Funds' Trustees.
      In determining fair value, the Board considers all relevant qualitative
      and quantitative information available. These factors are subject to
      change over time and are reviewed periodically. Estimated values may
      differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market of the
      investment existed.

                                       32
<PAGE>   35

Accounting for Investments
The Funds record security transactions on trade date. Realized gains and losses
on security transactions are determined using the specific identification
method. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, except that
certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon after the
ex-dividend date as the Fund is informed of the dividend. Interest income and
Fund expenses are recognized on an accrual basis.

Distributions to Shareholders
Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend
date.

Federal Income Taxes
The Funds' policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all
taxable income to shareholders. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is
required. The Funds intend to make any required distributions to avoid the
application of a 4% nondeductible excise tax. Distributions are determined in
accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. Reclassifications are made within the Fund's capital
accounts to reflect income and gains available for distribution under income tax
regulations.

Foreign Currency Translations
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities
denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are subject to changes in
value due to fluctuations in exchange rates. Purchases and sales of securities
and income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing
exchange rate on the respective date of each transaction. The market value of
investment securities, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars
daily.

The Funds do not isolate the portion of net realized and unrealized gains or
losses in equity security investments which are attributable to changes in
foreign exchange rates. Accordingly, the impact of such changes is included in
the realized and unrealized gains or losses on the underlying equity securities.

Forward Currency Contracts
The Funds may execute forward currency contracts to reduce their exposure to
currency risk on portfolio investments denominated in foreign currency. Forward
currency contracts are commitments to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a
future maturity date. The resulting obligation is marked-to-market daily using
foreign currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing service. An
unrealized gain or loss is recorded for the difference between the contract
opening value and its current value. When a contract is closed or delivery is
taken, this gain or loss is realized. For federal tax purposes, gain or loss on
open

                                       33
<PAGE>   36

forward contracts are treated as realized and subject to distribution at our
excise tax year-end date.

Options
Upon the purchase of a put or call option, the premium paid is recorded as an
investment. When the Funds write a put or a call option, the premium received by
the Funds is recorded as a liability. When a purchased option expires, a loss is
recognized for the cost of the option. When a written option expires, a gain is
realized for the premium received. When the Funds enter into a closing sale
transaction, a gain or loss is recognized based on the difference between the
proceeds of the closing transaction and the cost of the option.

Risk of Forward Currency Contracts and Options
The Funds generally use forward currency contracts and options for hedging
purposes to reduce market risks. However, when used separately, forward currency
contracts and options have risks. For example, the price movements of the
options and forwards may not follow the price movements of the portfolio
securities subject to the hedge. Gains on investments in options and forwards
depend on the ability to predict correctly the direction of stock prices,
interest rates, and other economic factors. Where a liquid secondary market for
options or forwards does not exist, the Funds may not be able to close their
positions and in such an event, the loss is theoretically unlimited.

Repurchase Agreements
The Funds may engage in repurchase agreement transactions. The Funds' custodian
bank sells U.S. government securities to each Fund under agreements to
repurchase these securities from each Fund at a stated repurchase price
including interest for the term of the agreement, which is usually overnight or
over a weekend. Each Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the
underlying U.S. government securities as collateral, whose market value is
required to be at least equal to the repurchase price. If the custodian becomes
bankrupt, the Fund might be delayed, or may incur costs or possible losses of
principal and income, in selling the collateral.

NOTE 3. INVESTMENT COUNSEL AGREEMENT

Southeastern Asset Management, Inc. ("Southeastern") serves as Investment
Counsel to the Funds and receives annual compensation, computed daily and paid
monthly, in accordance with the following schedule for the Partners Fund and
Small-Cap Fund:

<TABLE>

                                       34
<PAGE>   37

For the Partners, Small-Cap and Realty Funds, Southeastern has agreed to reduce
its fees on a pro rata basis to the extent that each Fund's normal annual
operating expenses (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage fees, and extraordinary
expenses) exceed 1.5% of average annual net assets. No such reductions were
necessary for the current year.

The International Fund fee is calculated at 1.5% per annum on all asset levels.
For this Fund, Southeastern has agreed to reduce its fees on a pro rata basis to
the extent that the Fund's normal annual operating expenses (excluding taxes,
interest, brokerage fees and extraordinary expenses) exceed 1.75% of average
annual net assets. Southeastern reduced its fees by $48,656 at June 30, 1999 for
expenses exceeding 1.75%.

NOTE 4. FUND ADMINISTRATOR

Southeastern also serves as the Fund Administrator and in this capacity is
responsible for managing, performing or supervising the administrative and
business operations of the Funds. Functions include the preparation of all
registration statements, prospectuses, tax returns and proxy statements, daily
valuation of the portfolios and calculation of daily net asset values per share.
The Funds pay a fee as compensation for these services, accrued daily and paid
monthly, of 0.10% per annum of average daily net assets.

Reimbursable administration expenses paid by the Funds to Southeastern consist
of the cost of computer software dedicated to valuation calculations and a
portion of the Funds' Treasurer's salary allocated in accordance with Trustee
review and approval.
