Dear Fellow Shareholder:
We are pleased to present the Semi-Annual Reports for the Thornburg Limited Term
U.S. Government Fund and for the Thornburg Limited Term Income Fund for the six
months ended March 31, 1996. If you owned the Thornburg Limited Term U.S.
Government Fund A Shares for the entire period, you received income dividends of
38 cents per share. If you owned C Shares, you received income dividends of 35
cents per share. If you owned the Thornburg Limited Term Income Fund A Shares
for the entire period, you received income dividends of 38 cents per share. If
you owned C Shares, you received income dividends of 36 cents per share.
The last six months have continued a period of change and volatility in the bond
markets. Long term interest rates, after falling steadily through 1995, have
risen since the middle of February. Now they are higher than they were last fall
and are near the levels of a year ago. Signs of commodity prices increasing and
continued growth in jobs and the economy have put the slow growth, low inflation
scenario, so recently favored by the economists, out of favor.
Prices of bonds have changed with the changes in interest rates. The graph below
shows the change in price over the last 6 months of the Thornburg Limited Term
U.S. Government Fund and the Thornburg Limited Term Income Fund with the change
in price of the 5-year U.S. Treasury 6.25% Note due August 2000. As you can see,
the price volatility of the funds has been less than that of the U.S.
Treasury Note.
These funds are managed bond portfolios. We ladder the maturities of the bonds
in the portfolios so that some bonds are maturing at par during each of the next
ten years or so. The average weighted maturity of the Thornburg Limited Term
U.S. Government Fund is currently 3.8 years and the average weighted maturity of
the Thornburg Limited Term Income Fund is currently 4.7 years. We always keep
them below 5 years.
Over the years, our practice of laddering a diversified portfolio of short and
intermediate bonds has given these funds the ability to perform well in a
variety of interest rate environments. Take a look at The Wall Street Journal
mutual fund listings printed on Fridays. I think you will see that the grades
these funds have received are something of which you can be proud. While past
performance is no guarantee of future results, we feel that we are well
positioned and will maintain a steady course.
We feel the Thornburg Limited Term U.S. Government Fund and the Thornburg
Limited Term Income Fund are appropriate investments over time. Thank you for
investing in our funds.
Sincerely,
Steven J. Bohlin
Managing Director

Note 1 - ORGANIZATION
Thornburg Limited Term U.S. Government Fund (the "Government Fund") and
Thornburg Limited Term Income Fund (the "Income Fund"), hereafter referred to
collectively as the "Funds", are a series of Thornburg Investment Trust (the
"Trust", formerly known as Thornburg Income Trust). The Trust is organized as a
Massachusetts business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated June 3, 1987 and
is registered as a diversified, open-end management investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust is currently issuing four
series of shares of beneficial interest in addition to those of the Funds:
Thornburg New Mexico Intermediate Municipal Fund, Thornburg Intermediate
Municipal Fund, Thornburg Florida Intermediate Municipal Fund and Thornburg
Value Fund. Each series is considered to be a separate entity for financial
reporting and tax purposes.
On September 1, 1994 the Funds began offering three classes of shares of
beneficial interest, Class A, Class B and Class C shares. All shares outstanding
prior to September 1, 1994 are considered Class A shares. On September 28, 1995,
all existing Class B shares were converted at net asset value, without the
imposition of a deferred sales charge, into Class A shares of an equivalent
value. The Fund no longer offers Class B shares. Each class of shares of a Fund
represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund, except
that (i) Class A shares are sold subject to a front-end sales charge collected
at the time the shares are purchased and bear a service fee, (ii) Class B shares
were sold at net asset value without a sales charge at the time of purchase, but
were subject to a contingent deferred sales charge upon redemption, and bore
both a service fee and a distribution fee, (iii) Class C shares are sold at net
asset value without a sales charge at the time of purchase, but, effective
October 2, 1995, are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge upon
redemption within one year, and bear both a service fee and a distribution fee,
and (iv) the respective classes have different reinvestment privileges.
Additionally, each Fund may allocate among its classes certain expenses, to the
extent allowable to specific classes, including transfer agent fees, government
registration fees, certain printing and postage costs, and administrative and
legal expenses. Currently, class specific expenses of the Funds are limited to
distribution fees and minor custody and transfer agent expenses.
Note 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Significant accounting policies of the
Funds are as follows:
Valuation of Investments: In determining net asset value, the Funds utilize an
independent pricing service approved by the Trustees. Debt investment securities
have a primary market over the counter and are valued on the basis of valuations
furnished by the pricing service. The pricing service values portfolio
securities at quoted bid prices or the yield equivalents when quotations are not
readily available. Securities for which quotations are not readily available are
valued at fair value as determined by the pricing service using methods which
include consideration of yields or prices of obligations of comparable quality,
type of issue, coupon, maturity, and rating; indications as to value from
dealers and general market conditions. The valuation procedures used by the
pricing service and the portfolio valuations received by the Funds are reviewed
by the officers of the Funds under the general supervision of the Trustees.
Short-term instruments having a maturity of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost , which approximate market value.
Federal Income Taxes: It is the policy of the Funds to comply with the
provisions of the Internal Revenue code applicable to "regulated investment
companies" and to distribute all of their taxable income, including any net
realized gain on investments to its shareholders. Therefore no provision for
federal income taxes is required.
When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions: The Funds may engage in
when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. To the extent the Funds engage in
such transactions, they will do so for the purpose of acquiring portfolio
securities consistent with their investment objectives and not for the purpose
of investment leverage or to speculate on interest rate changes. At the time the
Funds make a commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued basis, they will
record the transaction and reflect the value in determining their net asset
value. When effecting such transactions, assets of the Funds of an amount
sufficient to make payment for the portfolio securities to be purchased will be
segregated on the Funds' records at the trade date. Securities purchased on a
when-issued or delayed delivery basis do not earn interest until the settlement
date.
Dividends: Net investment income of the Funds is declared daily as a dividend on
shares for which the Funds have received payment. Dividends are paid monthly and
are reinvested in additional shares of the Funds at net asset value per share at
the close of business on the dividend payment date, or at the shareholder's
option, paid in cash. Net capital gains, to the extent available, will be
distributed annually.
General: Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
Interest income is accrued as earned. Premiums and original issue discounts on
securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective securities.
Realized gains and losses from the sale of securities are recorded on an
identified cost basis. The Funds invest in various mortgage backed securities.
Such securities pay interest and a portion of principal each month which is then
available for investment in securities at prevailing prices.
Foreign Currency Transactions: With respect to the Income Fund, portfolio
securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies
are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such
currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales
of portfolios securities and interest denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S.dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions
The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting
from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations
arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of
foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and
settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the
amount of interest recorded on the Fund's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent
of the amounts actually received or paid.
Use of Estimates: 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 and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets
from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Thornburg Investment Trust
Note 3 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Pursuant to the investment advisory agreement, Thornburg Management Company,
Inc. (the "Adviser") provides investment management and advisory services to the
Funds for which fees are computed at the rate of one half of one percent per
annum of the average daily net assets of the Government Fund and five eighths of
one percent per annum of the average daily net assets of the Income Fund. The
investment advisory agreement provides that if, with respect to any fiscal year
of each Fund, its total operating expenses (including investment advisory fees,
but excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary
expenses) exceed the most restrictive of the expense limitations imposed by
state securities commissions of the states in which each Fund currently has
registered its securities for sale, the investment advisory fees for that fiscal
year will be reduced or the Adviser will assume certain Fund expenses by the
amount of such excess. For the Government Fund's period ended March 31, 1996,
the Adviser voluntarily deferred advisory fees of $5,920 and assumed certain
operating expenses amounting to $7,026. For the Income Fund's period ended March
31, 1996, the Adviser voluntarily deferred advisory fees of $56,948 and assumed
certain operating expenses amounting to $11,786. These expenses may be repaid to
the Adviser by the Fund, however such repayment will depend upon the overall
level of Fund expenses for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 1996.
The Funds have underwriting agreements with Thornburg Securities Corporation
(the "Distributor"), which acts as the Distributor of Funds' shares. For the
period ended March 31, 1996, the Distributor earned commissions aggregating
$16,795 and $5,857 from the sale of Class A shares of the Government Fund and
Income Fund, respectively, and collected contingent deferred sales charges
aggregating $199 from redemptions of Class C shares of the Income Fund.
Pursuant to a Service Plan under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of
1940, each Fund may reimburse to the Adviser an amount not to exceed .25 of 1%
annum of its average net assets for payments made by the Adviser to securities
dealers and other financial institutions to obtain various shareholder related
services. The Adviser may pay out of its own funds additional expenses for
distribution of each Fund's shares.
Each fund has also adopted Distribution Plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1, applicable
only to each Fund's Class B and Class C shares under which the Funds can
reimburse the Distributor for certain distribution expenses on a monthly basis
at an annual rate of up to .75% of the average daily net assets attributable to
Class B shares and compensate the Distributor for services in promoting the sale
of Class C shares of the Funds at an annual rate of up to .75% of the average
daily net assets attributable to Class C shares. Total fees incurred by each
class of shares of the Funds under their respective Service and Distribution
Plans for the period ended March 31, 1996 are set forth in the statement of
operations.
Certain officers and trustees of the Funds are also officers and/or directors of
the Adviser and Distributor. The compensation of unaffiliated directors of the
Fund is borne by the Fund.
