On the cover:
             
Depicted on the front cover and in greater detail here, is a Treasury Yield
graph comparing yields on 30-year and 3-month Treasuries for the ten-year period
ended September 30, 1998. Historical graphs such as this assist PIMCO in
evaluating the long-term trends in the financial markets. The 30-year Treasury
yield has trended lower over the ten-year period reflecting an overall decrease
in inflationary expectations. A parallel decrease in yields is discernible over
1998, as high-quality, liquid Treasuries were increasingly sought out by
investors fleeing the volatility of global markets. As a result, interest rates
were driven to 30-year lows as the benchmark 30-year Treasury yield dipped below
5%, providing continued capital gains to bond investors.

Chairman's Letter


Dear PIMCO Funds Shareholder:

Foreign events had an unfavorable impact on the stock market over the six-month
period ended September 30, 1998 with stocks posting a negative return of 6.97%,
as measured by the Standard & Poor's 500 Index of stocks. By contrast, the bond
markets generally benefited from international unrest, and the overall bond
market, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, posted a 6.66%
return.

Volatile Conditions The stock market was shaken dramatically during the past
quarter as investors reacted to economic and political turmoil which began more
than a year ago in Asia. Eventually, the discord permeated international capital
markets with Russia's default and ruble devaluation, falling global stock
prices, concern about potential currency devaluations in Latin American
countries, the continued economic decline in Asia, and the well-publicized,
near-collapse of several large hedge funds. As a result, there was a "flight to
quality" allocation to the perceived safe haven of U.S. Treasury securities,
driving interest rates to 30-year lows and the benchmark 30-year U.S. Treasury
bond's yield down 0.66% to 4.97% over the six-month period ended September 30,
1998.

Looking Ahead As we head into 1999, inflation is expected to remain low as
foreign countries boost their exports in an effort to compensate for weak local
demand, thereby increasing competitive pressures on U.S. companies to not raise
prices. Slower economic growth and financial market uncertainty have motivated
the Federal Reserve Board to drop the Federal Funds rate twice in a one-month
period from 5.5% to 5.0%. There are indications that the Fed will decrease rates
further in the coming months which should contribute to an easing of the credit
crunch.

On the following pages you will find a more complete review of the bond and
stock markets, followed by a recent interview with Bill Gross, a Managing
Director and founder of Pacific Investment Management Company, and portfolio
manager for several of the Funds, including our flagship Total Return Fund. We
have also provided a complete analysis of each Fund's performance for the
six-month period ended September 30, 1998, including specific market commentary.

As always, we appreciate the trust you have placed in us, and we will continue
to work hard to meet your investment needs. If you have any questions regarding
your PIMCO Funds investment, please contact your account manager, or call one of
our shareholder associates at 1-800-927-4648. We also invite you to visit our

</TABLE> 

Six months ago in our annual report to shareholders we predicted the yield on
long-term U.S. Treasury bonds could drop to 5.0%. This target was reached, and
then late in the third quarter yields went on to fall below 5.0% for the first
time since 1967. As bond prices move in the opposite direction of yields, prices
of Treasuries soared.

The Treasury market benefited from continued global turmoil. Asian financial
woes spread to Russia, and concern grew over problems in Brazil and Latin
America. Investor confidence was further unsettled by the unwillingness of the
International Monetary Fund to step in and buoy the failing Russian economy.
These uncertain conditions led to a massive flight to quality, as investors
around the world sought safety by pouring assets into U.S. Treasuries.

While Treasuries prospered, some other sectors of the fixed income market missed
out on the rally. For example, investment-grade corporate bonds along with
high-yield bonds were hurt by fears that global problems would affect U.S.
corporate earnings and growth. Although the municipal bond market did not
benefit from the global flight to quality, the sector is currently experiencing
a resurgence with some non-taxable yields actually higher than Treasuries.

Going forward, we expect to see more countries acting to defend their
currencies. Many will hike up interest rates as Brazil has done. This typically
leads to slowing growth. Other countries may favor the route taken by Malaysia
imposing capital controls - which hurts liquidity. In either case, we expect to
see an increase in financial uncertainties around the world. For additional
details on our view of the global economy please refer to the interview with
Bill Gross on page 4.

Domestically, we expect the economy to continue to slow. We believe the Federal
Reserve will need to move to buoy the U.S. economy and increase global
liquidity. As such, we expect further interest rate cuts, reducing the Fed Funds
rate to the 4.0% to 4.5% range in the coming year. If inflation remains in its
current low range, as we expect, the real rate of return on bonds should be
historically high, making this a relatively attractive opportunity for bond
investors.

</TABLE> 

After continuing its run in the first two quarters of 1998, the bull market
finally hit a speed bump in the third quarter. From a peak of 9,337 on July 17,
the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed on September 30 at 7,842. Though this
has been a significant short-term drop, the Dow has done very well relative to
where it was when the seven-year bull market began in October 1991, when the Dow
stood at a mere 2,365.

A market decline has been anticipated for several years, as 20%+ annual returns
could not be sustained. However, what precipitated this decline was perhaps
surprising: a global economic crisis that began in Asia last year which has
since spread to Russia and could be on its way to Latin America and Canada as
well.

The Asian currency crisis first appeared in 1997, causing a domestic stock
market correction in October of that year, as investors feared Asian woes and
cheap imports would affect United States GDP. However, the market quickly
recovered and continued to rise through the second quarter of 1998, as
investors' fears of "Asian contagion" subsided. In the third quarter, the spread
of the crisis to other economies was not well received by investors - nor were
reduced earnings expectations for many corporations, especially those with
international exposure.

As a result, third quarter results were lackluster. Few sectors performed well,
with the exception of non-cyclical stocks such as health care and consumer
staples. Utility stocks declined only modestly, as they are considered a safer
harbor in volatile markets, and gold stocks actually rose. Large-cap stocks,
despite more international exposure, outperformed small-caps. Internationally,
most regions saw poor performance. Asia, Europe and Latin America were all hard
hit, with a few country-specific exceptions.

Looking ahead, we believe the long-awaited decline will ultimately prove to be
healthy for the stock market. This descent will serve to temper run-away P/E
ratios and the kind of "irrational exuberance" that Federal Reserve Chairman
Alan Greenspan warned against. We see a continued lowering of interest rates in
the near-term and believe that, currently, fundamentals remain sound for many
domestic companies. We also believe the correction has served to underscore the
importance of portfolio diversification and long-term investing.

Managing Director and Founder of Pacific Investment Management Company
William Gross


William Gross is a Managing Director and founder of Pacific Investment
Management Company, a PIMCO Advisors L.P. institutional investment firm. He is
also the portfolio manager of the highly-rated PIMCO Total Return and Low
Duration Funds and is leader of the team that manages the StocksPLUS,
Short-Term, Strategic Balanced and Moderate Duration Funds. Mr. Gross' views on
the financial markets are often featured in The Wall Street Journal, Barron's,
Money magazine and The New York Times. We recently spoke with him regarding his
latest outlook for the economy and the bond market.


Q: What do you see as the biggest threat to the U.S. economy?

A: Deflation. Simply stated, deflation is an annual price decrease in goods and
   services, often accompanied by recession. This is a threat that most
   Americans have only read about in their history books. But in the 1930s,
   deflation led the U.S. - and the world - to bread lines and 25% unemployment.
   Once it was overcome, many thought we would never see it again.

Q: What is the current condition of the global economy with regard to deflation?

A: While the U.S. is just now beginning to experience the symptoms of deflation,
   much of the global economy has been bedridden for some time. Japan has been
   "deflating" for nearly five years, and Southeast Asia caught the bug in
   mid-1997. Since that time, one nation after another has succumbed to its
   ravages, with Russia being its most recent victim. Not only was Russia forced
   to devalue the ruble, but it defaulted on hundreds of billions of dollars of
   debt, threatening countries in continents as far away as South America. North
   America may be next.

Q: After an absence of more than fifty years, what caused deflation to return?

A: The germ of deflation was bred in an atmosphere of idyllic capitalistic
   optimism after the fall of the Iron Curtain. Not only did Eastern Europe turn
   capitalist, but Asia, South America and even Mexico took on a new glow that
   promised expanding markets and escalating profits.

   Hundreds of billions of dollars in loans poured out of U.S., Japanese and
   European banks to finance nascent capitalism in emerging markets. The problem
   was that there were limits to the ability of economic societies, especially
   those in capitalistic infancy, to absorb new production. For example, only so
   many cars can be bought in the short run because emerging nations have so few
   roads on which to drive them.

   When the collective global economy finally discovered it was producing too
   many things for too few customers, it held a "garage sale." Prices came down,
   inventory was sold and some of the bills were paid off. But under
   deflationary conditions, the inventory did not sell at a high enough price to
   pay off all the debts. In fact, because many emerging nations borrowed money
   denominated in dollars instead of their own local currencies, their debts
   have skyrocketed as the dollar has risen and their own currencies have done
   nothing but sink. This is deflation at its worst, as country after country
   crumbles under the burden of too much supply, sinking prices and an
   over-arching burden of too much debt.

Q: But how does this affect the United States?

A: We are part of a global economy and, if an increasing number of countries are
   effectively bankrupt, we have fewer and fewer potential customers. Keep in
   mind that our stock market is fed by global profits and our consumers are
   increasingly fed by our stock market. And that is the reason why the stock
   market has been down - it smells a decline in corporate profits, if not the
   economy itself, brought on by worldwide deflation that is difficult to
   reverse.

Q: How can we reverse deflation?

A: What's required is a dose of lower interest rates in the U.S. and Europe, as
   well as a reversal of fiscal attitudes that stress the necessity for balanced
   budgets at all costs and under all circumstances. That, of course, requires
   strong political leadership and strong central bank policy. The world
   desperately needs new policies, new solutions and strong leaders in order to
   combat deflation in a global economy.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 6/1/87, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception on 5/11/87, compared to the Lehman
Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged market index. The performance of the
Administrative Class (shown above) reflects the payment of a service fee in an
amount not to exceed 0.25% on an annualized basis. The Administrative Class
commenced operations on 9/7/94. The Fund may invest in foreign securities which
involve potentially higher risks including foreign currency fluctuations and
political or economic uncertainty.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Total Return Fund's Institutional Class shares outperformed the Lehman
   Brothers Aggregate Bond Index for the six-month period ended September 30,
   1998, returning 7.67% compared to 6.66% for the benchmark.

 .  The Fund's duration was held longer than its benchmark which added to returns
   as yields fell across the maturity spectrum.

 .  The Fund's movement from longer-maturity holdings during the first three
   months of the period to intermediate-maturity holdings for the final three
   months enhanced returns as the Fund was appropriately positioned to benefit
   from the largest rate declines.

 .  While Treasuries outperformed during the period on a duration-adjusted basis,
   effective security selection and yield curve positioning overcame an
   underweight of the Treasury sector.

 .  The mortgage sector slightly outperformed the Index when adjusted for
   duration. The Fund's overweight of this sector enhanced returns as its less
   prepayment-sensitive holdings performed well in the declining rate
   environment.

 .  The Fund's underweight allocation to investment-grade corporates enhanced
   returns as global economic turmoil pressured corporate profit growth.

 .  Limited positions in dollar-denominated emerging markets and
   below-investment-grade corporate debt detracted from returns as continued
   financial and economic uncertainty forced investors to the safety of
   higher-quality investments.

 .  The Fund's hedged non-U.S. dollar positions were neutral for performance as
   these markets struggled with the uncertain global financial situation.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The  line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 1/1/92, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception on 12/30/91, compared to the Lehman
Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged market index. The performance of the
Administrative Class (shown above) reflects the payment of a service fee in an
amount not to exceed 0.25% on an annualized basis. The Administrative Class
commenced operations on 11/30/94.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Total Return Fund II delivered strong performance for the six months
   ended September 30, 1998. Specifically, the Fund's Institutional Class shares
   returned 8.33%, outperforming the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index return
   of 6.66%.

 .  The Fund's duration was held longer than its benchmark during the period
   which added to returns as yields fell across the maturity spectrum.

 .  The Fund's movement from longer-maturity holdings to intermediate-maturity
   holdings during the period enhanced returns as the Fund was appropriately
   positioned to benefit from the largest rate declines as the yield curve
   flattened.

 .  Treasuries outperformed during the period on a duration-adjusted basis, and
   the Fund's effective selection of Treasury holdings compensated for its
   underweight of this sector.

 .  Overall, the mortgage sector slightly outperformed the broad Index when
   adjusted for duration. The Fund's overweight of this sector enhanced returns
   as its less prepayment-sensitive holdings performed well in the declining
   rate environment.

 .  The Fund held only a modest allocation to the investment-grade corporate
   sector which enhanced returns as global economic turmoil pressured corporate
   profit growth.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 5/1/91, the Fund's Institutional Class
inception date, compared to the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, an
unmanaged market index. The performance of the Administrative Class (shown
above) reflects the payment of a service fee in an amount not to exceed 0.25% on
an annualized basis. The Administrative Class commenced operations on 4/11/97.
The Fund may invest in foreign securities which involve potentially higher risks
including foreign currency fluctuations and political or economic uncertainty.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  Total Return Fund III Institutional Class shares outperformed the Lehman
   Brothers Aggregate Bond Index for the six months ended September 30, 1998,
   returning 7.54% compared to 6.66% for the benchmark.

 .  The Fund's duration was held longer than its benchmark during the period
   which added to returns as yields fell across the maturity spectrum.

 .  The Fund's yield curve emphasis shifted from longer-maturity holdings to
   intermediate-maturity holdings during the period enhancing returns as the
   Fund was appropriately positioned to benefit from the largest rate declines.

 .  The Fund's allocation to the Treasury sector was aided by successful security
   selection which overcame its underweight of this sector.

 .  Overall, the mortgage sector slightly outperformed the Index when adjusted
   for duration. The Fund's overweight of this sector enhanced returns as its
   less prepayment-sensitive holdings performed well in the declining rate
   environment.

 .  The Fund's underweight of the investment-grade corporate sector enhanced
   returns as global economic turmoil pressured corporate profit growth.

 .  Limited allocations to dollar-denominated emerging markets and
   below-investment-grade corporate debt detracted from returns as continued
   financial and economic uncertainty forced investors to the safety of
   higher-quality investments.

 .  The Fund's hedged non-U.S. dollar positions were neutral for performance as
   these markets struggled with the uncertain global financial situation.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  For the fiscal half-year ended September 30, 1998, the Total Return Mortgage
   Fund outperformed the Lehman Brothers Mortgage Index with a return of 5.08%
   versus 4.41%. This favorable result added to the Fund's relative performance
   advantage versus its benchmark since its inception on July 31, 1997 (10.29%
   for the Fund versus 8.29% for the Index).

 .  The Fund's duration was kept longer than its benchmark, which enhanced
   returns as interest rates fell during the period.

 .  Maturity mix was held broader than the Index which increased returns. An
   above-index concentration in intermediate-maturity instruments benefited as
   yields in that segment of the curve fell by the greatest amount.

 .  The Fund's defensive positioning against prepayment risk improved returns
   during the period.

 .  The Fund's use of adjustable rate mortgages detracted slightly from returns,
   particularly in the latter portion of the measurement period.

 .  Limited exposure to well-structured, collateralized mortgage obligations
   (CMOs) helped to increase returns and added prepayment protection.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 12/31/96, the Fund's Institutional Class
inception date, compared to the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/
Corporate Bond Index, an unmanaged market index. The Fund may invest in foreign
securities which involve potentially higher risks including foreign currency
fluctuations and political or economic uncertainty.

 PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Moderate Duration Fund returned 6.13%, modestly underperforming the
   benchmark Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index return
   of 6.45% for the six-month period ended September 30, 1998.

 .  Positives for the Fund included an above-benchmark duration which boosted
   returns significantly as interest rates declined by approximately 0.8% to
   1.2% on short- to intermediate-maturity instruments. Focusing on intermediate
   maturities (two to seven years) was also favorable as these yields declined
   the most.

 .  Detracting from relative performance was the Fund's allocation to
   mortgage-backed securities (mortgage-backed securities are not included in
   the Index) which significantly underperformed as falling interest rates led
   investors to anticipate higher prepayments.

 .  Underweighting the corporate sector added to relative returns as corporates
   performed poorly due to worries about declining profits.

 .  However, the Fund's small allocation to below-investment-grade credits lagged
   due to concerns about credit quality and liquidity.

 .  Currency-hedged, non-U.S. bonds (mostly the United Kingdom) performed better
   than U.S. Treasuries, and the Fund's conservative allocation contributed
   modestly to performance.

 .  Limited holdings of U.S. dollar-denominated Latin American and Korean issues
   declined in price under the weight of general emerging markets troubles.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 6/1/87, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception on 5/11/87, compared to the Merrill
Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index, an unmanaged market index. The performance of the
Administrative Class (shown above) reflects the payment of a service fee in an
amount not to exceed 0.25% on an annualized basis. The Administrative Class
commenced operations on 12/31/94. The Fund may invest in foreign securities
which involve potentially higher risks including foreign currency fluctuations
and political or economic uncertainty.

 PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Low Duration Fund's Institutional Class shares returned 4.42% for the
   six-month period ended September 30, 1998, modestly underperforming the
   benchmark Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index return of 4.65%.

 .  The Fund maintained an above-index duration throughout the period, which
   increased returns as interest rates declined by approximately 0.8% to 1.2% on
   short- to intermediate-maturity instruments.

 .  Concentrating on intermediate maturities (two to seven years), where yields
   declined the most, was also a positive for relative performance.

 .  The Fund's substantial allocation to mortgage-backed bonds detracted from
   returns throughout the period as expectations of rising prepayments caused
   mortgage-backed bonds as a group to underperform like-duration Treasuries.

 .  Corporate sector holdings weakened returns relative to the all-Treasury
   benchmark as concerns about declining profits caused yield premiums to widen,
   erasing the yield advantage. However, the Fund's focus on higher-quality
   corporates helped minimize this sector's negative impact on returns.

 .  The Fund's small allocation to currency-hedged, non-U.S. holdings in
   developed markets could not keep pace with the rally in U.S. Treasuries.

 .  Limited holdings of U.S. dollar Latin American issues declined under the
   weight of general emerging markets troubles.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 11/1/91, the Fund's Institutional Class
inception date, compared to the Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index, an
unmanaged market index. The performance of the Administrative Class (shown
above) reflects the payment of a service fee in an amount not to exceed 0.25% on
an annual basis. The Administrative Class commenced operations on 2/2/98.

 PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  Low Duration Fund II Institutional Class shares returned 4.65%, exactly
   matching the return of the benchmark Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index
   return of 4.65% for the semi-annual period ended September 30, 1998.

 .  The Fund maintained an above-index duration throughout the period, which
   increased returns as interest rates declined by approximately 0.8% to 1.2% on
   short- to intermediate-maturity instruments.

 .  Concentrating on intermediate maturities (two to seven years), where yields
   declined the most, was also a positive for performance.

 .  Offsetting the Fund's favorable duration and yield curve strategies was a
   substantial allocation to mortgage-backed bonds which detracted from returns
   throughout the period as expectations of rising prepayments caused
   mortgage-backed bonds as a group to underperform Treasuries.

 .  Limited holdings in the corporate sector also weakened returns relative to
   the all-Treasury benchmark as concerns about declining profits caused yield
   premiums to widen, erasing the yield advantage.

 PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS

 .  For the six-month period ended September 30, 1998, the Low Duration Fund III
   returned 4.09%, underperforming the benchmark Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury
   Index return of 4.65%.

 .  The Fund maintained an above-index duration throughout the period, which
   increased returns as interest rates declined by approximately 0.8% to 1.2% on

 .  Concentrating on intermediate maturities (two to seven years), where yields

   more than offset those gains. The most significant detractor was the Fund's
   substantial allocation to mortgage-backed bonds which lagged throughout the

 .  Corporate sector holdings also weakened returns relative to the all-Treasury

   erasing the yield advantage.

 .  Limited holdings of U.S. dollar Latin American issues declined under the
   weight of general emerging markets troubles.

 PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Low Duration Mortgage Fund's total return for the fiscal half-year ended
   September 30, 1998 was 4.74%, outperforming the benchmark Merrill Lynch 1-3
   Year Treasury Index return of 4.65%. Since its inception on July 31, 1997,
   the Fund has outperformed its all-Treasury benchmark by 1.67% (9.25% for the
   Fund versus 7.58% for the Index).

 .  The Fund's duration was kept longer than the Index which added to returns as
   interest rates declined significantly during the period.

 .  A maturity mix that favored securities longer in maturity than the three-year
   limit of the Index increased returns as intermediate yields (maturities from
   two to seven years) fell by the greatest amount.

 .  As refinancing activity remained brisk, adjustable rate mortgages had
   difficulty keeping up with Treasury returns during 1998's second and third
   quarters.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 7/1/91, the Fund's Institutional Class
inception date, compared to the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, and a 10
year duration blend of the Lehman Brothers Intermediate and 20+Yr. Treasury
Indices, each an unmanaged market index. The performance of the Administrative
Class (shown above) reflects the payment of a service fee in an amount not to
exceed 0.25% on an annual basis. The Administrative Class commenced operations
on 9/23/97.

 PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Long-Term U.S. Government Fund's Institutional Class shares posted a
   return of 13.66% for the semi-annual reporting period ended September 30,
   1998, strongly outperforming the 11.90% return of the Fund's blended Treasury
   benchmark.

 .  The dominant theme impacting market performance was a "flight to quality"
   which made the Treasury sector the best performing U.S. fixed income sector
   as credit spreads widened.

 .  Treasury yields fell most in the intermediate-maturity range, producing an
   overall steeper yield curve, while longer duration Treasuries delivered the
   best price performance over the six-month period.

 .  The Fund's yield curve strategy improved relative returns by overweighting
   longer-maturity issues in the first fiscal quarter and intermediate-maturity
   holdings in the second fiscal quarter.

 .  Average Fund duration did not contribute significantly to relative
   performance as the Fund's duration was equivalent to the benchmark over the
   period.

 .  Security selection was helpful as specific longer-maturity Treasuries
   contributed strongly to performance.

 .  Exposure to longer-term mortgages detracted from performance due to higher

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 2/1/97, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception date on 1/29/97, compared to the Lehman
Brothers Inflation Linked Treasury Index, an unmanaged market index. The Fund
may invest in foreign securities which involve potentially higher risks
including foreign currency fluctuations and political or economic uncertainty.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  For the semi-annual period ended September 30, 1998, the Real Return Bond
   Fund returned 4.53%, outperforming the 4.09% return of its benchmark, the
   Lehman Brothers Inflation Linked Treasury Index.

 .  The Fund bested the Index due in part to holding an above-benchmark duration
   in a falling rate environment. Relative performance also benefited from the
   yield pick-up offered by U.S. corporate and agency inflation-indexed issues,
   and limited holdings of non-inflation-indexed securities.

 .  The non-inflation-indexed Treasury curve steepened with intermediate yields
   dropping the furthest.

 .  The U.S. inflation-indexed curve became slightly positively sloped as
   intermediate real yields benefited most directly from falling inflation
   expectations.

 .  Real and non-inflation-indexed yield spreads declined by an average of 1.0%.

 .  The "break-even" inflation adjustment, equating inflation-adjusted yields
   with non-inflation-indexed yields, became less than 1.0% for intermediate
   issues.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 1/1/93, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception on 12/3/92, compared to the J.P. Morgan
Non-U.S. Index (Hedged), an unmanaged market index. The performance of the
Administrative Class (shown above) reflects the payment of a service fee in an
amount not to exceed 0.25% on an annualized basis. The Administrative Class
commenced operations on 1/28/97. Foreign investing involves potentially higher
risks including foreign currency fluctuations and political or economic
uncertainty.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  For the semi-annual period ended September 30, 1998, the Foreign Bond Fund
   Institutional Class shares posted a return of 4.88%, underperforming the
   7.81% return of the Fund's benchmark, the J.P. Morgan Non-U.S. Index
   (Hedged).

 .  The second half of the period saw heightened turmoil in the emerging markets
   dominated by Russia's default. Although the Fund had no exposure to Russia
   and only modest exposure to the better performing emerging markets, contagion
   effects and an underweight bond position in Japan were the primary factors
   limiting relative returns.

 .  A bullish duration stance added to performance overall as yields declined
   during the period.

 .  In addition to the Fund's underweight in Japan, an overweight position in
   Greece also hurt performance as an EMU convergence rally and lower than
   expected inflation numbers gave way to an indiscriminate flight to quality
   during August. As yield premiums in dollar denominated Latin American and
   Eastern European issues continued to widen, modest emerging market positions
   also declined. On a positive note, an overweight in 30-year German Bunds
   added to performance as core European markets rallied on flight to quality
   and continued subdued inflation.

 .  The Fund's currency strategy detracted from both absolute and relative
   performance. In Europe, the Fund overweighted the Norwegian krone versus the
   Deutschemark and the Swiss franc. As Russia's financial crisis decreased the
   demand for Scandinavian currencies, the long Norwegian krone position
   declined, falling up to 8% against the Deutschemark, following the central
   bank's comments that they would temporarily suspend attempts to support the
   currency. Underweighting the yen versus the dollar and Deutschemark detracted
   from performance as the yen strengthened largely on technical factors.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Global Bond Fund posted favorable absolute performance for the period
   with Institutional Class shares returning 7.61%. However, relative
   performance lagged the return of the Fund's benchmark, the J.P. Morgan Global
   Index (Unhedged) which returned 10.87%.

 .  Russia's default and heightened discord in the emerging markets characterized
   the second fiscal quarter. Contagion effects and an underweight bond position
   in Japan were the primary factors limiting relative returns, although the
   Fund had no exposure to Russia and only modest exposure to the better
   performing emerging markets.

 .  A bullish duration stance added to performance overall as yields declined
   during the period. 

 .  An overweight position in Greece hurt performance as an EMU convergence rally
   and lower than expected inflation numbers gave way to a flight to quality
   during August. As yield premiums in dollar denominated Latin American and
   Eastern European bonds continued to widen, modest emerging market positions
   declined. An overweight in 30-year German Bunds added to performance as core
   European markets rallied on flight to quality and continued subdued
   inflation.

 .  The Fund's currency strategy detracted from performance. An overweight, long
   Norwegian krone position declined as Russia's financial crisis decreased the
   demand for Scandinavian currencies, while an underweight in the yen versus
   the dollar and Deutschemark also detracted from performance as the yen
   strengthened largely on technical factors.

 .  Overall, the decline of the U.S. dollar helped unhedged portfolios, like the
   Fund, as the period saw the dollar decline against both the yen and European
   currencies.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 3/1/98, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception on 2/25/98, compared to the J.P. Morgan
Global Index (Hedged), an unmanaged market index. Foreign investing involves
potentially higher risks including foreign currency fluctuations and political
or economic uncertainty.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Global Bond Fund II returned 4.02% for the six-month period ended
   September 30, 1998, compared to the 8.18% return of the J.P. Morgan Global
   Index (Hedged).

 .  The second half of the period saw heightened turmoil in the emerging markets
   dominated by Russia's default. Although the Fund had no exposure to Russia
   and only modest exposure to the better performing emerging markets, contagion
   effects and an underweight bond position in Japan were the primary factors
   limiting relative returns.

 .  A bullish duration stance added to performance overall as yields declined
   during the period. 

 .  In addition to the Fund's Japan underweight, an overweight position in Greece
   also hurt performance as an EMU convergence rally and lower than expected
   inflation numbers gave way to an indiscriminate flight to quality during
   August. As yield premiums in dollar denominated Latin American and Eastern
   European issues continued to widen, modest emerging market positions also
   declined. On a positive note, an overweight in 30-year German Bunds added to
   performance as core European markets rallied on flight to quality and
   continued subdued inflation.

 .  The Fund's currency strategy detracted from both absolute and relative
   performance. In Europe, the Fund overweighted the Norwegian krone versus the
   Deutschemark and the Swiss franc. In addition, the yen was favored versus the
   dollar and subsequently the Deutschemark. As Russia's financial crisis
   decreased the demand for Scandinavian currencies, the long Norwegian krone
   position declined, falling up to 8% against the Deutschemark. The underweight
   in the yen versus the dollar and Deutschemark also detracted from performance
   as the yen strengthened largely on technical factors.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Emerging Markets Bond Fund narrowly outperformed the J.P. Morgan Emerging
   Markets Plus Index for the six-month period ended September 30, 1998 (-25.91%
   for the Fund versus -25.94% for the Index).

 .  All segments of the high yield bond market have been hit hard by investor
   fears and consequent market volatility, precipitating heavy selling and
   resulting in significantly higher yields and lower bond prices.

 .  In this market environment, the Fund's above-index duration detracted from
   relative returns as yield premiums widened.

 .  Significantly underweighted positions in Russia and Venezuela helped relative
   returns.

 .  Overweighted allocations to higher quality credits in Korea, Argentina,
   Brazil, Poland, and the Philippines also boosted performance.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 1/1/93, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception on 12/16/92, compared to the Lehman
Brothers BB Intermediate Corporate Index, an unmanaged market index. The
performance of the Administrative Class (shown above) reflects the payment of a
service fee in an amount not to exceed 0.25% on an annualized basis. The
Administrative Class commenced operations on 1/16/95. The investments made by
the High Yield Fund may involve high risk and may have speculative
characteristics.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  For the six months ended September 30, 1998, the High Yield Fund's
   Institutional Class shares posted a return of -0.27%, underperforming the
   1.60% return of the Lehman Brothers BB Intermediate Corporate Index.

 .  The principal source of underperformance was an exposure to B-rated bonds
   which significantly lagged higher quality BB-rated issues as the lingering
   Asian crisis and slower U.S. economic growth concerned investors.

 .  However, performance of the Fund was strong relative to more aggressive high
   yield funds aided by a more conservative credit quality posture and industry
   sector emphasis.

 .  Significantly benefiting returns was the Fund's cautious sector allocation
   favoring healthcare, media and utility bonds.

 .  Avoiding aggressive "business plan" start-up bonds heavily issued during the
   1990's bull market helped relative returns as their prices fell sharply
   during the market sell-off.

 .  Fund holdings included only negligible Asian corporate debt and securities of
   U.S. corporations heavily influenced by the Asian economy.

 .  Small positions in Japanese bank debt, however, detracted from performance as
   the Japanese economy and banking sector remained weak.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 12/31/97 the Fund's Institutional Class
inception date, compared to the Lehman Brothers General Municipal Bond Index, an
unmanaged market index. The Administrative Class commenced operations on
9/30/98.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Municipal Bond Fund returned 5.04% for the six-month period ended
   September 30, 1998, outperforming the 4.64% return of its benchmark, the
   Lehman Brothers General Municipal Bond Index.

 .  Municipal yields fell by similar amounts across all maturities, producing a
   downward and nearly parallel shift in the municipal yield curve.

 .  Yields offered on longer-maturity (five-plus years), AAA-rated municipals
   increased to 90% or more of like-maturity Treasuries.

 .  Credit spreads widened much less for municipal bonds than they did in the
   taxable debt markets. 

 .  The Fund's above-benchmark duration, or sensitivity to changes in interest
   rates, enhanced returns as rates declined across all maturities.

 .  Call-protected securities enhanced relative returns as they could not be
   refunded in a falling rate environment.

of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing
in the Fund. If there is a material difference between the quoted total return
and the quoted current yield, the yield quotation more closely reflects the
current earnings of the Money Market Fund than the total return quotation.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Money Market Fund's Institutional Class shares returned 2.66% for the
   six-month period ended September 30, 1998, outperforming the 2.55% return of
   the Lipper Money Market Index.

 .  U.S. money market funds, with more than $1.3 trillion in combined assets,
   have attracted investors under present uncertain circumstances because of
   ample liquidity and safety of principal.

 .  Of importance to money market investors, the Federal Reserve lowered the
   Federal Funds overnight lending rate by 25 basis points in late September in
   response to global financial turmoil. In response, Treasury yields dropped
   sharply across all maturities with T-bill yields falling an average of 0.8%.

 .  Commercial paper yield spreads relative to similar maturity T-Bills widened
   by 0.3% to 0.4% as investors paid a premium for the liquidity of Treasuries.

 .  In this market environment, an emphasis on high-quality-commercial paper and
   short-term, fully collateralized repurchase agreements enhanced returns.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 6/1/93, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception on 5/14/93, compared to the Standard
and Poor's 500 Index, an unmanaged market index. The performance of the
Administrative Class (shown above) reflects the payment of a service fee in an
amount not to exceed 0.25% on an annualized basis. The Administrative Class
commenced operations on 1/7/97. The Fund may invest in foreign securities which
involve potentially higher risks including foreign currency fluctuations and
political or economic uncertainty.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The S&P 500 Index fell substantially during August as global financial
   uncertainty, including increased concerns about corporate profitability,
   spread to the U.S. stock market. Although the Index rebounded partially
   during September, total returns for the semi-annual period ended September
   30, 1998 were down 6.97%. The performance of the StocksPLUS Fund's
   Institutional Class shares nearly matched the Index posting a 6.99% decline.

 .  The extended duration on the fixed income portfolio backing the Fund's S&P
   500 Index exposure (exposure achieved through investments in S&P futures and
   swaps contracts) significantly enhanced performance as Treasury rates fell
   substantially during the period, most notably during August and September.

 .  Mortgage-backed security holdings performed poorly relative to Treasuries as
   declining interest rates elevated prepayment risks. Investment-grade and
   high-yield corporate holdings also detracted from overall performance amid
   heightened concerns about credit risk.

 .  A small allocation to select emerging market securities suffered the greatest
   relative price decline as risk premiums in this sector increased
   significantly. Conversely, inflation-linked bond positions contributed to
   returns as expectations of a Fed easing increased.

Past performance is not an indication of future results. The line graph above
assumes the investment of $5,000,000 on 7/1/96, the first full month following
the Fund's Institutional Class inception on 6/28/96, compared to a static 60/40
blend of the Standard and Poor's 500 Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate
Bond Index, and the Lipper Balanced Index, each an unmanaged market index. The
Fund may invest in foreign securities which involve potentially higher risks
including foreign currency fluctuations and political or economic uncertainty.

PORTFOLIO INSIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 .  The Strategic Balanced Fund outperformed the Lipper Balanced Fund Index by
   2.40% with a return of -2.00% versus the benchmark's -4.40% result.

 .  The Fund's equity allocation was reduced from 62% to 57% at quarter-end,
   based on our consensus forecast of a near-term peak in the current U.S.
   economic expansion.

 .  An overweighting in equities (62% average versus a "neutral" point of 60%)
   reduced relative performance as stocks generally underperformed bonds.

 .  The S&P 500 Index declined 6.97% as turmoil in global financial markets
   negatively affected earnings expectations. However, the stocks in the S&P 500
   Index outperformed the average return of actively managed growth and income
   funds by 5.24% (source: Lipper Analytical Services).

 .  The Fund's equity market exposure (S&P 500 futures and swaps contracts)
   outperformed the S&P 500 Index due principally to a favorable above-index
   duration on the underlying cash portfolio.

 .  The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index gained 6.66% as declining yields
   across all maturities created price appreciation for all Index asset classes.

 .  The Fund's fixed income portfolio bested the Lehman Index due to above-index
   duration and an overweighting of intermediate maturities.

investment funds (the "Funds"). The Trust may offer up to six classes of shares:
Institutional, Administrative, A, B, C and D. Each share class has identical
voting rights (except that shareholders of a class have exclusive voting rights
regarding any matter relating solely to that class of shares). The Commercial
Mortgage Securities and StocksPLUS Short Strategy Funds had not commenced
operations as of September 30, 1998. Information presented in these financial
statements pertains to the Institutional and Administrative Classes (the
"Institutional Classes") of the Trust. Certain detailed financial information
for the A, B, C and D Classes (the "Other Classes") is provided separately and
is available upon request.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. 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.

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities and other financial instruments for
which market quotations are readily available are stated at market value. Market
value is determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales
are reported, as is the case for most securities traded over-the-counter, the
mean between representative bid and asked quotations obtained from a quotation
reporting system or from established market makers. Fixed income securities,
including those to be purchased under firm commitment agreements, are normally
valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or pricing
services. Short-term investments which mature in 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market value. 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.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are
recorded as of the trade date. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or
delayed-delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the trade date.
Realized gains and losses from securities sold are recorded on the identified
cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except certain
dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed,
are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest
income, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is
recorded on the accrual basis.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment
income, if any, of each Fund, except the StocksPLUS and Strategic Balanced
Funds, are declared on each day the Trust is open for business and are
distributed to shareholders monthly. Dividends from net investment income, if
any, of the StocksPLUS and Strategic Balanced Funds are declared and distributed
to shareholders quarterly. Net realized capital gains earned by a Fund, if any,
will be distributed no less frequently than once each year.

     Income dividends 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 for such items as wash sales, foreign currency transactions, net
operating losses and capital loss carryforwards.

     Distributions reflected as a tax basis return of capital in the
accompanying Statements of Changes in Net Assets have been reclassified to paid
in capital. In addition, other amounts have been reclassified between
undistributed net investment income, accumulated undistributed net realized
gains or losses and paid in capital to more appropriately conform financial
accounting to tax characterizations of dividends and distributions.

Foreign Currency. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and
liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at
the end of the period. Fluctuations in the value of these assets and liabilities
resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign
currency gains (losses). Realized gains (losses) and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) on investment securities and income and expenses are translated
on the respective dates of such transactions. The effect of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the
Statements of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those
securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss
on investment securities.

Multiclass Operations. Each class offered by the Trust has equal rights as to
assets and voting privileges. Income and non-class specific expenses of each
Fund, except the StocksPLUS and Strategic Balanced Funds, are allocated daily to
each class of shares based on the relative value of settled shares. Income and
non-class specific expenses of the StocksPLUS and Strategic Balanced Funds are
allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each
class. Realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of each Fund are
allocated daily to each class of shares based on the relative net assets of each
class.

Federal Income Taxes. Each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment
company and distribute all of its taxable income and net realized gains, if
applicable, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes
has been made.

Financing Transactions. A Fund may enter into financing transactions consisting
of the sale by the Fund of securities, together with a commitment to repurchase
similar securities at a future date. The difference between the selling price
and the future purchase price is an adjustment to interest income. If the
counter-party to whom the Fund sells the security becomes insolvent, a Fund's
right to repurchase the security may be restricted; the value of the security
may change over the term of the financing transaction; and the return earned by
a Fund with the proceeds of a financing transaction may not exceed transaction
costs. Included in payable for investments and foreign currency purchased are
amounts of $958,768,306, $6,253,222, $18,459,213, $4,841,002, $111,689,167,
$15,578,323, $506,949,577, $209,684,410, $25,092,170, $1,031,379, $23,125,500,
$138,319 and $1,822,540 for the Total Return, Total Return III, Moderate
Duration, Low Duration, Long-Term U.S. Government, Real Return Bond, Foreign
Bond, Global Bond, Global Bond II, Emerging Markets Bond, High Yield, StocksPLUS
and Strategic Balanced Funds, respectively, related to these financing
transactions.

Futures and Options. Certain Funds are authorized to enter into futures
contracts and options. A Fund may use futures contracts and options to manage
its exposure to the securities markets or to movements in interest rates and
currency values. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts
and options are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the
securities held by a Fund and the prices of futures contracts and options, the
possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet
the terms of the contract. Futures contracts and purchased options are valued
based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. The premium received for a
written option is recorded as an asset with an equal liability which is marked
to market based on the option's quoted daily settlement price. Fluctuations in
the value of such instruments are recorded as unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) until terminated, at which time realized gains and losses are
recognized.

Forward Currency Transactions. Certain Funds are authorized to enter into
forward foreign exchange contracts for the purpose of hedging against foreign
exchange risk arising from the Fund's investment or anticipated investment in
securities denominated in foreign currencies. A Fund also may enter into these
contracts for purposes of increasing exposure to a foreign currency or to shift
exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one country to another. All
commitments are marked to market daily at the applicable translation rates and
any resulting unrealized gains or losses are recorded. Realized gains or losses
are recorded at the time the forward contract matures or by delivery of the
currency. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential
inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from
unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S.
dollar.

Swaps. Certain Funds are authorized to enter into interest rate, total return
and currency exchange swap agreements in order to obtain a desired return at a
lower cost than if the Fund had invested directly in the asset that yielded the
desired return. Swaps involve commitments to exchange components of income
(generally interest or returns) pegged to the underlying assets based on a
notional principal amount. Swaps are marked to market daily based upon
quotations from market makers and the change, if any, is recorded as unrealized
gains or losses in the Statement of Operations. A Fund bears the risk of loss of
the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the
default or bankruptcy of a counterparty.

Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities (SMBS). SMBS represent a participation in,
or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property, and may be
structured in classes with rights to receive varying proportions of principal
and interest. SMBS include interest-only securities (IOs), which receive all of
the interest, and principal-only securities (POs), which receive all of the
principal. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated
payments of principal, a Fund may fail to recoup some or all of its initial
investment in these securities. The market value of these securities is highly
sensitive to changes in interest rates.

Delayed Delivery Transactions. A Fund may purchase or sell securities on a
when-issued or delayed delivery basis. These transactions involve a commitment
by a Fund to purchase or sell securities for a predetermined price or yield,
with payment and delivery taking place beyond the customary settlement period.
When delayed delivery purchases are outstanding, a Fund will set aside and
maintain until the settlement date in a segregated account, liquid assets in an
amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. When purchasing a security on a
delayed delivery basis, a Fund assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the
security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such
fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. A Fund may
dispose of or renegotiate a delayed delivery transaction after it is entered
into, and may sell when-issued securities before they are delivered, which may
result in a capital gain or loss. When the Fund has sold a security on a delayed
delivery basis, the Fund does not participate in future gains and losses with
respect to the security. Forward sales commitments are accounted for by the Fund
in the same manner as forward currency contracts discussed above.

Inflation-Indexed Bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities
whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The
interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than
typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond, however, interest
will be paid based on a principal value which is adjusted for inflation. Any
increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be considered
interest income, even though investors do not receive their principal until
maturity.

Repurchase Agreements. Each Fund may engage in repurchase transactions. Under
the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the Fund takes possession of an
underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase,
and the Fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time. The
market value of the collateral must be equal at all times to the total amount of
the repurchase obligations, including interest. Generally, in the event of
counterparty default, the Fund has the right to use the collateral to offset
losses incurred.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements. Certain Funds are authorized to enter into
reverse repurchase agreements. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund sells
to a financial institution a security that it holds with an agreement to
repurchase the same security at an agreed-upon price and date. A reverse
repurchase agreement involves the risk that the market value of the security
sold by the Fund may decline below the repurchase price of the security.

Restricted Securities. Certain funds are permitted to invest in securities that
are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities
generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the
public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may
involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an
acceptable price may be difficult.

3. Fees, Expenses, and Related Party Transactions

Investment Advisory Fee. Pacific Investment Management Company (PIMCO) is a
wholly owned subsidiary partnership of PIMCO Advisors L.P. which serves as

Distribution and Servicing Fees. PIMCO Funds Distributors LLC, ("PFD"), formerly
PIMCO Funds Distribution Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of PIMCO Advisors
L.P., serves as the distributor of the Trust's shares.

     The Trust is permitted to reimburse, out of the Administrative Class assets
of each Fund offering Administrative Class shares in an amount up to 0.25% on an
annual basis of the average daily net assets of that class, financial
intermediaries that provide services in connection with the distribution of
shares or administration of plans or programs that use Fund shares as their
funding medium. The effective rate paid to PFD was 0.25% during current fiscal
year.

     Pursuant to the Distribution and Servicing Plans adopted by the A, B, C and
D Classes of the Trust, the Trust compensates PFD or an affiliate with respect
to Class D for services provided and expenses incurred in connection with
assistance rendered in the sale of shares and services rendered to shareholders
and for maintenance of shareholder accounts of the A, B, C and D Classes. The
Trust paid PFD distribution and servicing fees at an effective rate as set forth
below (calculated as a percentage of each Fund's average daily net assets
attributable to each class):
