June 20, 2000
Dear Shareholder:
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Advisor Class shares of Warburg
Pincus Balanced Fund had a return of 7.09%, vs. returns of 1.01% for the Lipper
Balanced Funds Index1, 7.19% for the S&P 500 Index2 and 1.06% for the Lehman
Brothers Intermediate Government/Corporate Bond Index3. The Fund's one-year
return through April 30, 2000 was 9.27%. Its five-year, 10-year and
since-inception (on July 31, 1995) average annual total returns through April
30, 2000 were 14.96%, 13.36% and 13.16%, respectively.
The period saw continued strength in the U.S. economy, which fueled optimism
over corporate-earnings growth but which prompted the Federal Reserve to raise
interest rates to control inflation. Within this environment, stocks ultimately
had positive results, though they were quite volatile, especially within the
technology area (many technology-related stocks had double-digit losses in
April). Factors that drove this volatility included the Fed's actions, some
late-period evidence of inflation, concerns over the government's anti-trust
suit against Microsoft and general worries over valuations on high-flying
technology companies. Within the bond market, performance was generally
lackluster in terms of total return (i.e., bond-price changes plus coupon
income), reflecting the difficult interest-rate backdrop.
The Fund had respectable performance for the six months, both in absolute
terms and compared to that of its benchmarks. In fact, despite its sizable bond
component, the Fund performed roughly in line with the broad stock market (as
measured by the S&P 500 Index), aided by some timely stock selection and by good
showings from its telecommunications holdings in particular.
In terms of basic strategy, we maintained a roughly 60/40 allocation between
stocks and bonds through the period, reflecting our goal of providing
competitive returns while limiting overall portfolio volatility. Our stock
holdings remained broadly diversified by sector, and included exposure to
rapid-growth sectors (e.g., telecommunications & equipment) as well as
more-traditional industries (e.g., the financial-services, capital-equipment and
retail areas). Within the Fund's bond component, which we view primarily as a
source of stability and income, our emphasis remained on high-quality,
intermediate-term bonds.

Going forward, we will continue to strive to provide competitive levels of
total return while employing a fairly conservative asset allocation. As ever,
our efforts will remain devoted to attempting to add value via careful security
selection.

Dear Shareholder:
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Advisor Class shares of Warburg
Pincus Value Fund (formerly Warburg Pincus Growth & Income Fund-the name change
was effective January 1, 2000) had a loss of 2.43%, vs. a return of 7.19% for
the S&P 500 Index1. The Fund's one-year return through April 30, 2000 was down
6.13%. Its five-year, 10-year and since-inception (on May 15, 1995) average
annual total returns through April 30, 2000 were 10.69%, 13.18% and 10.28%,
respectively.
Effective December 31, 1999, Scott T. Lewis serves as the Fund's
Co-Portfolio Manager, and Brian S. Posner no longer serves as Co-Portfolio
Manager. Effective March 27, 2000, Robert E. Rescoe serves as Co-Portfolio
Manager, and Stacy Dutton no longer serves as Co-Portfolio Manager.
MANAGER COMMENTARY
The period was an overall positive though quite turbulent period for the U.S.
stock market. Stocks of rapid-growth companies once again paced the market's
rally, though these were particularly volatile, especially within the technology
sector. Many technology and Internet names finished the period on a difficult
note, suffering double-digit losses in April, a correction fueled by worries
over inflation and interest rates and other factors, such as concerns over the
government's anti-trust suit against Microsoft.
Against this backdrop, the Fund had a loss, hindered by the market's ultimate
preference for growth stocks during the period and by weakness in specific
areas, for example the capital-equipment sector. There were, to be sure, some
bright spots, including the Fund's energy holdings, which were buoyed by rising
oil prices and ongoing restructuring activity in the industry.
We made few noteworthy changes to the Fund during the period with respect to
sector emphasis or, for that matter, individual holdings. With few exceptions,
we continued to view our holdings as attractive, both on an absolute basis
(i.e., based on our analysis of a company's underlying worth) and on their
potential to outperform the broader market over time (due, e.g., to positive
earnings surprises).
We maintained a sizable weighting in the energy area. We believe that a
number of these companies have good long-term prospects, especially those
integrated, multinational oil companies engaged in consolidation activity. Such
activity, in our view, will result in significant cash-flow and earnings
improvements over time, even if energy prices remain flat or begin to pull back
(though our long-term outlook on the supply/demand backdrop for
3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
energy remains constructive). Likewise, we maintained a meaningful weighting in
the oil-services area, where industry fundamentals have improved significantly
over the past year, a trend that we believe will continue.
Another area of emphasis for the Fund, on the margin, remained financial
companies. We maintained noteworthy weightings in both the banks and savings &
loan sector and the more-diversified financial-services sector. Our focus in the
bank area remained on companies well-positioned to benefit from an expanding
economy, not the least of which in our view are regional banks with sizable
industrial/commercial loan portfolios.
Elsewhere of note, we maintained significant exposure to the industrial &
manufacturing and capital-equipment sectors. A number of these companies offer
compelling value in our judgment, given relatively low valuations and active
restructuring programs.
The rest of the Fund remained invested across a wide range of sectors,
including the telecommunications & equipment area. Notwithstanding the generally
lofty valuations seen here, we continued to view certain stocks as compelling.
We also had a noteworthy weighting in the consumer area, chiefly via the retail
sector, though we also continued to find attractive stocks in the food,
beverages & tobacco area.
Looking ahead, we believe that sentiment toward the types of stocks targeted
by the Fund could improve materially in the not-too-distant future (indeed,
these stocks have performed relatively well over the past few months). Valuation
discrepancies between growth-oriented stocks and those typically associated with
value investing (e.g., out-of-favor economically sensitive stocks) remain wide,
however. Many value stocks, meanwhile, represent companies with healthy and
improving fundamentals. This stands to benefit value-oriented sectors of the
market, barring any retreat from equities generally. And given the strong
economy, we believe that stocks will remain, on the whole, compelling compared
to other asset classes. As ever, our focus will remain on identifying
fundamentally undervalued companies with the brightest longer-term prospects.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
June 20, 2000
Dear Shareholder:
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Advisor Class shares of Warburg
Pincus Capital Appreciation Fund had a gain of 31.53%, vs. a gain of 7.19% for
the S&P 500 Index.* The Fund's one-year return through April 30, 2000 was
42.40%. Its five-year, 10-year and since-inception (on August 17, 1987) average
annual total returns through April 30, 2000 were 30.77%, 20.35% and 17.20%,
respectively.
The period was a positive one for the U.S. stock market, buoyed by a growing,
indeed, accelerating, economy and a healthy profit outlook. Stocks were subject
to frequent bouts of volatility, however, due largely to worries over inflation
and interest rates (the Federal Reserve raised rates three times during the
period to head off potential inflation). In terms of sector performance,
growth-type stocks--e.g., technology and communications stocks--generally had
the best results for six months, the groups late period turbulance
notwithstanding (these stocks declined sharply in April, giving back a
significant portion of their earlier gains).
Against this backdrop, the Fund had a good showing, outpacing its benchmark
by a sizable margin. The Fund benefited from its continued emphasis on growth
stocks through the period and from good stock selection generally. Stocks that
aided the Fund's return included its technology, telecommunications, media and
health-care holdings.
We made no changes to the Fund during the period in terms of basic strategy,
remaining focused on what we deem to be reasonably priced stocks of companies
with good potential to control their own destiny. More specifically, we
continued to emphasize growth-oriented mid- and large-cap companies, stressing
factors such as strong brand recognition, good returns on equity, healthy
balance sheets and promising new products and/or services. We continued to find
a number of such companies within the technology and communications areas
(broadly defined), which accounted for a sizable portion of the Fund through the
period. In our view, a large number of these companies have compelling
longer-term growth prospects, in large part due to the dramatic rise of
Internet-based communications and commerce, a development that we believe is in
the very early innings.
Elsewhere, noteworthy sector weightings for the Fund continued to include the
pharmaceutical area, where we deemed certain stocks to be attractively priced.
Our focus here remained on large- and mid-cap pharmaceutical and biotechnology
names with existing products and the potential for successful drug launches
going forward.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Areas in which we remained underweighted included financial stocks, based on
our view that a strong economy would put upward pressure on interest rates.
While a healthy economy augurs well for loan growth, we became concerned that
rising rates would restrain financial stocks over the intermediate term. We
viewed specific financial companies as attractive, however, especially within
the investment-banking area, where we increased our exposure late in the period.
We also had relatively limited exposure to cyclical, or economically
sensitive industries, in general because we continued to see better
opportunities within growth-oriented areas. We will, however, continue to seek
opportunities to selectively add economically-sensitive companies, particularly
those in the energy area.
Looking ahead, we believe that the market will continue to offer ample
opportunity, notwithstanding recent volatility and ongoing inflation and
interest-rate uncertainties. The economy appears unlikely to slow dramatically,
while innovation across a wide range of industries continues apace. As always,
we will continue to strive to identify stocks we deem to have best long-term
appreciation potential.

WARBURG PINCUS DOMESTIC EQUITY FUNDS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 2000 (Unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Warburg Pincus Balanced Fund (the "Balanced Fund"), Warburg Pincus Value
Fund (formerly, Warburg Pincus Growth & Income Fund) (the "Value Fund"), and
Warburg Pincus Capital Appreciation Fund (the "Capital Appreciation Fund"), each
a Maryland corporation, are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"), as diversified, open-end management investment
companies (each, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds").
Investment objectives for each fund are as follows: the Balanced Fund seeks
maximum total return through a combination of long-term growth of capital, and
current income consistent with preservation of capital; the Value Fund seeks
long-term growth of capital, income and a reasonable current return; and the
Capital Appreciation Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.
Each Fund (except the Capital Appreciation Fund) may invest up to 15% of its
net assets in non-publicly traded securities. The Capital Appreciation Fund may
invest up to 10% of its total assets in such securities. Non-publicly traded
securities may be less liquid than publicly traded securities, and they may be
difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price the Fund would like.
In addition, the lack of an active market may make it difficult to obtain an
accurate price for a Fund security.
Each Fund offers two classes of shares, one class being referred to as the
Common Class shares and one class being referred to as Advisor Class shares.
Common and Advisor Class shares in each Fund represent an equal pro rata
interest in such Fund, except that they bear different expenses which reflect
the difference in the range of services provided to them. Common Class shares
for the Balanced Fund bear expenses paid pursuant to a shareholder servicing and
distribution plan at an annual rate not to exceed .25% of the average daily net
asset value of each Fund's Common Class share. Advisor Class shares bear
expenses paid pursuant to a distribution plan adopted by each Fund at an annual
rate not to exceed .75% of the average daily net asset value of each Fund's
Advisor Class shares. Advisor Class shares are currently bearing expenses of
.50% of average daily net assets.
The net asset value of each Fund is determined daily as of the close of
regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Each Fund's investments are
valued at market value, which is generally determined using the last reported
sales price. If no sales are reported, investments are generally valued at the
mean between the last reported bid and asked price. In the absence of market
quotations, investments are generally valued at fair value as determined by or
under the direction of the Fund's Board. Short-term

investments that mature in 60 days or less are valued on the basis of amortized
cost, which approximates market value, unless the Board determines that using
this method would not reflect an investment's value.
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars.
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the current
prevailing exchange rates. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the current exchange rate
at the end of the period. Translation gains or losses resulting from changes in
the exchange rate during the reporting period and realized gains and losses on
the settlement of foreign currency transactions are reported in the results of
operations for the current period. The Funds do not isolate that portion of
realized gains and losses on investments in equity securities which are due to
changes in the foreign exchange rate from that which are due to changes in
market prices of equity securities. The Funds isolate that portion of realized
gains and losses on investments in debt securities which are due to changes in
the foreign exchange rate from that which are due to changes in market prices of
debt securities.
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Income, expenses (excluding class-specific expenses,
principally distribution and shareholder servicing fees) and realized/unrealized
gains/losses are allocated proportionately to each class of shares based upon
the relative net asset value of outstanding shares. The cost of investments sold
is determined by use of the high cost method for both financial reporting and
income tax purposes.
Dividends from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any,
are declared and paid at least annually (except with respect to the Value Fund
and the Balanced Fund for which dividends, if any, are paid quarterly). However,
to the extent that a net realized capital gain can be reduced by a capital loss
carryover, such gain will not be distributed. Income and capital gain
distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
No provision is made for federal taxes as it is each Fund's intention to
continue to qualify for and elect the tax treatment applicable to regulated
investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("the
Code"), and make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be
sufficient to relieve it from federal income and excise taxes.

Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, each Fund, along with other Funds advised by Credit Suisse Asset
Management LLC, ("CSAM"), can transfer uninvested cash balances to a pooled cash
account, which is invested in repurchase agreements secured by U.S. government
securities. Securities, pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements, are
held by the Funds' custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement
requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments
of interest and principal; however, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the
counterparty to the agreement, retention of the collateral may be subject to
legal proceedings. At April 30, 2000 the Funds had no investments in repurchase
agreements.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The Funds have an arrangement with their transfer agent whereby interest
earned on uninvested cash balances was used to offset a portion of their
transfer agent expense.
For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Funds received credits or
reimbursements under this arrangement as follows:
FUND AMOUNT
---- --------
Balanced Fund $ 4,411
Value Fund 60,872
Capital Appreciation Fund 195,972
2. INVESTMENT ADVISER, CO-ADMINISTRATORS AND DISTRIBUTOR
Pursuant to Investment Advisory Agreement, CSAM, an indirect, wholly owned
subsidiary of Credit Suisse Group, serves as investment advisor for each of the
Funds described herein.
For its investment advisory services, CSAM receives the following fees based

CSAMSI served as distributor of each Fund's shares until January 1, 2000. On
January 1, 2000, Provident Distributors, Inc. ("PDI") replaced CSAMSI as

services. This fee is calculated at an annual rate of .25% of the average daily
net assets of the Common Class shares of the Balanced Fund and at an annual rate
of.50% of the Advisor Class shares of the Balanced Fund, the Value Fund and the
Capital Appreciation Fund. CSAMSI may use this fee to compensate service

3. LINE OF CREDIT
The Funds, together with other Funds advised by CSAM, have established a $250
million committed, unsecured, line of credit facility ("Credit Facility") with
Deutsche Bank AGas administrative agent, State Street Bank and Trust Company as
operations agent, Bank of Nova Scotia as syndication agent as well as certain
other lenders, for temporary or emergency purposes primarily relating to
unanticipated fund share redemptions. Under the terms of the Credit Facility,
the Funds with access to the Credit Facility pay an aggregate commitment fee at
a rate of .075% per annum on the average daily balance of the Credit Facility
that is undisbursed and uncanceled during the preceding quarter allocated among
the participating funds in such manner as is determined by the governing Boards
of the various Funds. In addition, the participating Funds will pay interest on
borrowing at the Federal Funds rate plus .50%. At April 30, 2000 and during the
six months ended April 30, 2000, none of these Funds had borrowings under the
Credit Facility.

Capital Appreciation Fund 473,731,782 (20,198,525) 453,533,257
5. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
Each Fund may enter into forward currency contracts for the purchase or sale
of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. 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 foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Each
Fund will enter into forward contracts primarily for hedging purposes. Forward
currency contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying
currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes
as unrealized until the contract settlement date or the date on which an
offsetting position is entered into. At April 30, 2000, there were no open
forward foreign currency contracts.
