Dear Valued Shareholder,


                          RE: VISION MID CAP STOCK FUND

Due to a typographical error, the "Start of Performance (11/29/93)" total return
for the VISION Mid Cap Stock Fund ("Fund") - Class A Shares was incorrectly
stated as 7.12% in the VISION Group of Funds, Inc. ("VISION Group") Annual
Report to Shareholders dated April 30, 2000. The correct figure is 13.23%. We
apologize for this error.

We would also like to remind you that effective October 15th, 1999, Independence
Investment Associates, Inc. ("Independence"), Boston was retained as the Fund's
sub-adviser. Please refer to Page 8 of the VISION Group's Annual Report for a
review of their Fund-specific commentary and that of the mid cap stock market in
general. As the VISION Group strives to be "best in class," Independence should
be an integral part of that success and, hopefully, your own.

Please take this opportunity to carefully read and review the information on our
other fund offerings. Studies have shown that proper diversification amongst
asset classes (stocks, bonds, money markets) and across them (large cap, mid cap
stocks and short-term, long-term bonds, etc) may contribute to less risk and
greater return. Your adviser and the VISION Group are always happy to provide
you with easy to understand examples of how asset allocation can work for you.

As we continue to strive to offer you an array of investment choices we
encourage you to ask your advisor to reacquaint you with the advantages of
investing in the VISION Group of Funds.

On behalf of the VISION Group, thank you for your continuing investment in the
Mid Cap Stock Fund. We value our relationship with you and look forward to
serving your needs and assisting in achieving your goals.

Sincerely,


VISION Group of Funds, Inc.

President’s Message

 
Dear Investor:
 
I am pleased to present the Annual Report of the VISION equity and income funds for the 12-month period from May 1, 1999 through April 30, 2000. This report begins with a discussion by each fund’s management about the economy, the market, and fund strategies over the reporting period. Next, you’ll find a complete list of portfolio holdings and financial statements for each fund.
 
This report also contains information on the two additions to the VISION Funds that occurred over the past year.
 
The most recent addition, VISION Large Cap Growth Fund, began operation in March of 2000. This Fund pursues capital appreciation by investing in large, established blue-chip growth companies. It brings investors the consistent, disciplined decision of Montag & Caldwell, who as sub-adviser manages the Fund under the supervision of M&T Bank. Founded in 1945, Montag & Caldwell is one of the Southeast’s oldest investment management firms.
 
Our second addition, VISION Mid Cap Stock Fund, was formed on October 15, 1999, when it acquired VISION Growth and Income Fund and VISION Capital Appreciation Fund in a reorganization. This Fund is managed by the sub-adviser Independence Investment Associates, Inc. (IIA), under the supervision of M&T Bank. IIA is a top-ranked institutional money manager based in Boston and a wholly owned subsidiary of John Hancock Subsidiaries, Inc.
 
Over the 12-month reporting period, the stock market exhibited very high volatility, while a rising interest rate environment caused a broad decline in bond prices. For more in-depth information on the year’s investment climate, I urge you to read the portfolio managers’ investment reviews. Fund-by-fund performance highlights are as follows:
 
VISION U.S. Government Securities Fund
The fund’s portfolio of U.S. government securities paid dividends totaling $0.59 per share, while the fund’s net asset value declined $0.49 as rising interest rates caused a broad decline in bond prices. As a result, the fund produced a total return of 1.11%, or (3.46%) adjusted for the fund’s sales charge.* At the end of the period, the fund’s assets totaled $60.2 million.
 
VISION New York Municipal Income Fund
The fund’s portfolio of high-quality, New York municipal bonds paid tax-free income distributions totaling $0.46 per share and capital gains totaling $0.05 per share.** The fund’s net asset value declined by $0.80 in a rising interest rate environment that caused a broad decline in bond prices. As a result, the fund achieved a total return of (2.71%), or (7.13%) adjusted for the fund’s sales charge.* By the end of the period, tax-sensitive New York residents had invested a total of $48.1 million in the fund.

VISION Large Cap Value Fund
This fund offers a relatively conservative way to navigate toward income and capital appreciation from stocks believed to be undervalued. In a stock market environment that did not favor value stocks, the fund’s Class A Shares’ net asset value declined from $12.24 to $11.14. This decline was slightly cushioned by the fund’s focus on income-producing stocks, which resulted in income dividends totaling $0.18 per share. The fund’s Class A Shares also paid a capital gain distribution totaling $0.16 per share. The fund’s Class A Shares total return was (6.15%), or (11.29%) adjusted for the fund’s sales charge for the 12-month period. Class B Shares, which began operation on January 10, 2000, produced a total return of 1.62%, or (3.36%) adjusted for the contingent deferred sales charge, through a decrease in net asset value, and income dividends totaling $0.06 per share.* Fund assets totaled $30.7 million at the end of the period.
 
VISION Mid Cap Stock Fund
The fund’s portfolio pursues its objective of total return by investing in high-quality mid-cap stocks selected through a systematic process that focuses on value, or “cheapness,” and improving fundamental strength. During the period, the fund’s Class A Shares produced a total return of 19.88%, or 13.31% adjusted for the fund’s sales charge, through an increase in net asset value, a $0.45 capital gain and income distributions totaling $0.02 per share. Class B Shares, which began operation on March 15, 2000, produced a total return of 8.54%, or 3.54% adjusted for the contingent deferred sales charge, through an increase in net asset value.* At the end of the period, the fund’s net assets totaled $110.7 million.
 
As always, thank you for choosing one or more of the VISION equity and income funds to pursue your financial goals. We’ll continue to keep you up-to-date on your progress.
 
Sincerely,
/s/    Edward C. Gonzales

Investment Review

 
VISION U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES FUND
 
Yields on U.S. fixed income securities rose during the Vision U.S. Government Securities Fund’s fiscal year. On April 30, 1999, the yield of the U.S. Treasury ten-year note was 5.36%, the lowest yield for the fiscal year. The ten-year note yield peaked on January 20, 2000 at 6.79%, then decreased to end the reporting period at 6.23% on April 30, 2000.
 
What happened in 1999 and early 2000? The target federal funds rate opened 1999 at 4.75% and remained at that level until June 30, 1999, when the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) raised the target to 5.00%. The Fed subsequently raised the target by 25 basis points four more times. The rate increases occurred on August 24 and November 16 in 1999 and February 2 and March 21 in 2000. The target level ended our fiscal year at 6.00%. The Fed acted to remove the liquidity from the financial system that it supplied during the Asian and Russian crises of 1998. The Fed has also reflected the market’s concern with labor cost pressures coinciding with robust U.S. economic growth. The year over year percentage change for the chain weighted real Gross Domestic Product for the quarter ending March 31, 2000 was a healthy 5.00%. This growth rate is higher than the 2.0 - 2.5% rate that is generally recognized as the Fed’s non-inflation threatening rate of economic growth. The year over year percentage change in the consumer price index (CPI) for the year ending March 2000 reached 3.70%. In the months prior to March, the year over year CPI was closer to 3.0%. Looking forward, the key issue for the economy and the bond market is wage inflation. The interest rate increases to date should reduce the demand for labor. Increased global economic activity including new trading relationships with China should increase the supply of labor. However, market participants may demand higher interest rates to counteract existing economic momentum prior to an increased visibility of the previously mentioned demand and supply factors.
 
The Vision U.S. Government Securities portfolio posted a 1.11% total return on a net asset value basis for the one year period ending April 30, 2000.* The corresponding one year number for the Lipper General Government Index was 0.19% and the Morningstar General Government one year total return was 1.07%.** Our current duration is slightly shorter than the market average. We extended our portfolio duration in January 2000 as real yields became very attractive. We shortened the duration in March and early April 2000 after market yields substantially declined. We continue to emphasize government guaranteed securities with yield advantages, and thus higher current income, to U.S. Treasury securities. In the mortgage-backed security sector, we continue our emphasis on very old, low balance mortgages in an attempt to diminish prepayment risk.

VISION NEW YORK MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
 
The last six months have treated the municipal bond market relatively well. Yields on ten-year municipals have risen slightly from 5.24% (87% of the Ten-Year U.S. Treasury Note) on October 29, 1999 to 5.29% (85% of the Ten-Year U.S. Treasury Note) on April 28, 2000. Over the last six months municipals have out-performed the treasury bond market as well as most other taxable fixed income markets. However, over the last 12 months, muncipals have generally underperformed the treasury and other taxable markets.
 
What happened in 1999 and early 2000? The target federal funds rate opened 1999 at 4.75% and remained at that level until June 30, 1999, when the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) raised the target to 5.00%. The Fed subsequently raised the target by 25 basis points four more times. The rate increases occurred on August 24 and November 16 in 1999 and February 2 and March 21 in 2000. The target level ended our fiscal year at 6.00%. The Fed acted to remove the liquidity from the financial system that it supplied during the Asian and Russian crises of 1998. The Fed has also reflected the market’s concern with labor cost pressures coinciding with the robust U.S. economic growth. The year over year percentage change for the chain weighted real Gross Domestic Product for the quarter ending March 31, 2000 was a healthy 5.00%. This growth rate is higher than the 2.0 - 2.5% rate that is generally recognized as the Fed’s non-inflation threatening rate of economic growth. The year over year percentage change in the consumer price index (CPI) for the year ending March 2000 reached 3.70%. In the months prior to March, the year over year CPI was closer to 3.0%. Looking forward, the key issue for the economy and the bond market is wage inflation. The interest rate increases to date should reduce the demand for labor. Increased global economic activity including new trading relationships with China should increase the supply of labor. However, market participants may demand higher interest rates to counteract existing economic momentum prior to an increased visibility of the previously mentioned demand and supply factors.
 
The Vision New York Municipal Income Fund posted a positive total return of 3.26% over the last six months ending April 30, 2000 (1.42%) adjusted for the fund’s sales charge). The Lipper New York Municipal Debt Funds Index* return for the same period was 2.36%. For the fund’s fiscal year ending April 30, 2000, the Vision New York Municipal Income Fund returned (2.71%) ((7.13%) adjusted for the fund’s sales charge) versus the Lipper return of (3.38%).**
 
The fund continues to emphasize high quality New York municipals while keeping the average maturity of the portfolio relatively long. Unlike the taxable bond market, the municipal bond market yield curve has maintained a positive slope with short maturities yielding less than longer maturities. While the municipal yield curve has flattened somewhat in the last six months, it has not become inverted like the treasury yield curve. We expect the municipal curve to continue to flatten, as long-term yields are forced lower in 2000, accompanied by rising yields in shorter maturities.

New York State has enjoyed sizable budget surpluses over the last two years, improving credit quality at the state level. However, some smaller issuers within the state continue to face challenging credit issues. We remain committed to delivering a high level of tax-exempt income while seeking those issuers with strong credit characteristics.
 
VISION LARGE CAP VALUE FUND
 
The Vision Large Cap Value Fund’s Class A Shares returned (6.15%) based on net asset value or (11.29%) adjusted for the fund’s sales charge and the fund’s Class B Shares returned 1.62% based on net asset value or (3.36%) adjusted for the fund’s contingent deferred sales charge for the twelve months ending April 30, 2000.* This compares with a 0.43% total return for the S&P/Barra Value Index, a commonly referenced unmanaged index of large capitalization “value” oriented stocks.** During this same period the Lipper Large Cap Value Fund Average returned 2.43%.***
 
A number of changes took place in the fund starting in late December 1999 to improve investment performance. First, more stringent risk control measures were introduced to reduce expected “tracking error” or expected variance from our chosen benchmark—the “value” side of the S&P 500. This meant that the bias of “only investing in high yielding, income oriented stocks” had to be relaxed because a reasonably large group of stocks in the value side of the S&P 500 pay a minimal or even no dividend. While dividend enhanced equities were part of a strategy that has successfully worked in the past, yield “in and of itself” has not produced superior returns in the recent past. Our fund now includes many industry leaders such as Exxon-Mobil, Citigroup, Disney, Viacom, DuPont, MCI-Worldcom, Hewlett-Packard, and American Express. Investments in some of the larger capitalized companies in the S&P Barra Value Index help control portfolio risk.
 
Second, we introduced a thematic approach to incorporate our “top-down” assessment of how we should be positioned to take advantage of secular trends developing in the U.S. economy. We identified five major themes that should prove important for the 2000 - 2001 time frame:
 
1. 
Demographics—The graying of America affects consumption patterns. Specific stocks that are part of this theme include American Home Products, Carnival Corp, Boston Scientific, and HCA—The Health Care Corporation.
 
2. 
Technology—The new economy rules include the forced rapid implementation of new technologies. Some of our specific stocks that are enabling the new economy include Teradyne, Computer Associates, EDS, National Semiconductor, and MarchFirst. We had purchased Sterling Software which was subsequently taken over by Computer Associates.
 
3. 
Supply/Demand Imbalances—Cyclical industry conditions that create significant supply/demand imbalances. The U.S. natural gas industry currently represents an excellent example of a situation where demand is outstripping supply. We own Apache Corp, Coastal Corp., and Duke Energy as our natural gas plays.

***
Lipper figures represent the average of the total returns reported by all of the mutual funds designated by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. as falling into the respective categories indicated. Lipper figures do not reflect sales charges.
 
4. 
Industry Consolidation—Profit pressures and competitive forces will drive consolidation in the financial services and the utility industries. We already had two announced takeovers in 2000 as part of this theme—Reliastar Financial and LG&E Energy. Jefferson-Pilot, Hartford Financial, and CMS Energy represent current holdings for this theme.
 
5. 
World Wide Economy—New opportunities in the global marketplace. Pitney Bowes, Deere, and Associates First Capital are a few of our holdings that have been beneficiaries of new international markets.
 
Third, we have emphasized stocks with growth prospects that on average are greater than the earnings growth rate of our value benchmark. This follows from our conviction that future stock prices will largely be determined by future earnings growth. However, we want to pay a low multiple for that growth potential. This combination of high growth and reasonable price is commonly referred to as GARP—Growth At a Reasonable Price.
 
The fund has outperformed all three of its benchmarks since these changes have been made. For the first four months of 2000, the fund’s total return was 1.73%. The S&P/Barra Value Index returned (0.44)%, the Lipper Large Cap Value Fund Average was (0.38)%, and the Morningstar Large Cap Value Fund Average was (0.60)%.*

VISION MID CAP STOCK FUND
 
The following commentary has been provided by the fund’s sub-adviser, Independence Investment Associates. Independence has assumed the responsibility for managing the fund as of October 15, 1999.
 
For the six month period ended April 30, 2000, the fund performed very well. Mid cap stocks rebounded strongly during this period, and your fund exceeded the S&P Mid Cap 400 Index* by a large margin. The fund’s Class A Shares returned 27.13% for this period (20.14% adjusted for the fund’s sales charge) versus the S&P Mid Cap 400 Index return of 21.14%. The fund’s Class B Shares returned 8.54% since inception (March 14, 2000), or 3.54% adjusted for the fund’s contingent deferred sales charge. We have constructed a diversified mid cap portfolio that is designed to reduce sector, capitalization and style risk and focus on superior stock selection. We look for reasonably priced companies that are also earning more money than investors are expecting. Stock selection within the technology sector added to the fund’s performance, particularly in the semiconductor and telecommunications equipment industries. Within the financial sector, we found more value in insurance companies, at the expense of banks, which also added to the fund’s performance. We also attempt to add value by avoiding the overpriced securities whose earnings outlooks are deteriorating. Our avoidance of poor performing food and consumer products stocks also helped the portfolio.
 
After many years of large capitalization equities leading the market, the mid-cap sector began outperforming in the fourth quarter of 1999. Investors finally began paying attention to the attractive valuations and superior growth prospects of many mid cap securities relative to the large cap alternatives. While mid cap technology and biotechnology stocks led market returns from mid October through February, old economy industries such as financials, industrials and utilities have led market returns in March and April. Our sector neutral, diversified approach has paid off in this volatile market.
 
We are encouraged by the recent trends in the market. Investors have begun paying attention to the relative value offered by mid cap stocks. “Hyper-growth” stocks have come back to earth as investors once again realize that companies need sales and earnings, not just concepts and marketing expenses, to be attractive investments. A further broadening of the market and more focus on valuation should bode well for the Vision Mid Cap Stock Fund.

VISION LARGE CAP GROWTH FUND
 
The following commentary has been provided by the fund’s sub-adviser, Montag & Caldwell Investment Counsel.
 
The Vision Large Cap Growth Fund received its initial funding in late March of this year and is now fully invested in accordance with Montag and Caldwell’s model portfolio. For the one-month period ended April 30, 2000, the fund’s Class A Shares total return was (0.89%),* or (6.34%) adjusted for the fund’s sales charge, versus a total return of (3.00%) for the Standard & Poor’s (S&P) 500 Index.** Since inception (April 5, 2000), the fund’s Class B Shares total return was (2.62%), or (7.49%) adjusted for the fund’s contingent deferred sales charge.* During the month, we took advantage of volatile market conditions to add to several of our holdings at attractive prices. Bristol Myers, Lucent Technologies, Dell Computer, and Circuit City were among the stocks in which we increased our positions.
 
Aggressive growth mutual funds specializing in technology and internet stocks attracted the lion’s share of the money that flowed into the equity sector earlier this year. These inflows were invested in many of the same names already held by these funds, which only increased the valuation gap between technology and non-technology equites. As of March 31st, the average NASDAQ 100 Index*** stock was trading at 147 times trailing earnings, while the average S&P 500 Index stock traded at 28 times trailing earnings. While we have long been proponents of technology stocks and currently have roughly 28% of the fund’s portfolio invested in the sector, we do not believe that paying $147 or $200 or $300 for $1 of earnings offers adequate return potential relative to the inherent risk at these price levels. Based on standard estimations of value, these companies will have to grow their earnings at rates greater than 30% for 10 years or more in order for investors to earn single digit returns at these prices. History suggests that we will look back in ten years and wonder what became of most of these high-flyers.
 
Following economic growth of 7.3% in the fourth quarter, the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) is continuing to apply the monetary brakes in an effort to keep too much growth from fueling inflation. Continued productivity gains and subdued core inflation give us confidence that the Fed can engineer a slower growth economic environment without causing a recession. Slower monetary growth should also serve to dampen investor enthusiasm for the more speculative stocks, and contribute to a healthy broadening of the market’s leadership. The recent weakness in the NASDAQ relative to the S&P 500 Index leads us to believe that this transition is underway, which should benefit our holdings. This price retrenchment of more aggressively valued stocks appears to be occurring in an orderly fashion and should it continue, may reduce some of the excesses mentioned above. In addition, the rebound in global economies and the opportunities provided by the triumph of capitalization should benefit our multinational growth companies, including consumer, pharmaceutical, technology and financial companies. We feel that our clients’ portfolios are well-positioned to take advantage of these major trends.
 
Let me take this opportunity to welcome you as shareholders in the Vision Large Cap Growth Fund. We at Montag & Caldwell and the Vision Family of Funds are very excited about its prospects and I look forward to updating you on the Fund’s progress in the future.

Vision Equity and Income Funds
Combined Notes to Financial Statements
April 30, 2000

 
(1)    Organization
 
Vision Group of Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Corporation consists of eight portfolios (individually referred to as the “Fund”, or collectively as the “Funds”). The following Funds are presented herein:
 
Portfolio Name      Investment Objective

    Vision U.S. Government Securities Fund
    (“U.S. Government Securities Fund”) (d)
     Current income by investing primarily in
securities that are guaranteed for payment of
principal and interest by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities.
Capital appreciation is a secondary
investment consideration.

    Vision New York Municipal Income Fund
    (“New York Municipal Income Fund”) (n)
     Current income which is exempt from
federal regular income tax, and the personal
income taxes imposed by the State of New
York and New York municipalities and is
consistent with preservation of capital.

    Vision Large Cap Value Fund (“Large Cap
    Value Fund”) (formerly Vision Equity
    Income Fund) (d)
     Current Income. Capital appreciation is a
secondary investment consideration.

    Vision Mid Cap Stock Fund (“Mid Cap Stock
    Fund”) (formerly Vision Growth and Income
    Fund) (d)
     Seeks total return by investing primarily in a
diversified portfolio of mid-cap stocks.

    Vision Large Cap Growth Fund (“Large Cap
    Growth Fund”) (d)
     Capital Appreciation.
 
 
(d) Diversified
 
(n) Non-diversified
 
The financial statements of the other three portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder’s interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held.
 
On August 30, 1999, Vision Equity Income Fund changed its name to Vision Large Cap Value Fund.
 
Vision Mid Cap Stock Fund commenced operations on October 15, 1999, when it acquired the assets of both Vision Growth and Income Fund and Vision Capital Appreciation Fund (the “Acquired Funds”) in a reorganization. In order to comply with comments made by the staff of the SEC, the Mid Cap Stock Fund had to become an “accounting survivor” of one of the Acquired Funds. Accordingly, the financial and performance information presented for the Mid Cap Stock Fund reflects the historical operations of Vision Growth and Income Fund in all periods prior to October 15, 1999. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 1,899,378 shares of Mid Cap Stock Fund (valued at $21,918,824) for the 2,232,100 shares of the Vision Capital Appreciation Fund outstanding on October 15, 1999 along with an exchange of 5,668,880 shares of Mid Cap Stock Fund (valued at $65,433,417) for the 5,668,880 shares of Vision Growth and Income Fund. The Vision Capital Appreciation Fund’s net assets at that date ($21,925,137), including $219,604 of unrealized depreciation, were combined with the net assets of Vision Growth and Income Fund at that date ($65,433,417), including unrealized depreciation of $3,240,292.
 
(2)    Significant Accounting Policies
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Investment Valuations —Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. U.S. Government securities are generally valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked price as furnished by an independent pricing service. Listed corporate bonds, and other fixed income and asset-backed securities, unlisted securities and short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Municipal bonds are valued by an independent pricing service, taking into consideration yield, liquidity, risk, credit quality, coupon, maturity, type of issue, and any other factors or market data the pricing service deems relevant. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value.
 
Repurchase Agreements —It is the policy of the Funds to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank’s vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Funds to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement’s collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement transaction.
 
Vision Equity and Income Funds

The Funds will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Funds’ adviser to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Directors (the “Directors”). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Funds could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Funds along with other affiliated investment companies may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.
 
Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions —Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. Large Cap Value Fund, Mid Cap Stock Fund and Large Cap Growth Fund offer multiple classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of each Fund based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to difference in separate class expenses.
 
Distributions in excess of net investment income were a result of certain book and tax timing differences. These distributions do not represent a return of capital for federal income tax purposes.
 
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of net operating losses and wash sales. The following reclassification has been made to the financial statements.
 
            Increase (Decrease)
Fund Name
     Paid-in
Capital

     Accumulated Net
Realized Gain (Loss)

     Undistributed Net
Investment Income

Mid Cap Stock Fund      $6,155,062      $(6,390,321)      $235,259
 
Federal Taxes —It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of their income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary.
 
Vision Equity and Income Funds

 
At April 30, 2000, the following Funds had capital loss carryforwards for federal tax purposes, which will reduce each Fund’s taxable income arising from future net realized gain on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve each Fund of any liability for federal tax. The recognition of capital losses carried forward for Vision Capital Appreciation Fund, which merged into Mid Cap Stock Fund, are limited for 8 years under Section 382(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforwards will expire as listed below:
 
Fund
     Capital Loss

     Capital Loss

U.S. Government Securities Fund      —          $585,791
New York Municipal Income Fund    —          232,213
Mid Cap Stock Fund      $5,050,545     
 
Additionally, net realized capital losses attributable to security transactions incurred after October 31, 1999, are treated as arising on the first day of the Fund’s next taxable year (May 1, 2000). The post-October losses for the Funds were as follows:
 
U.S. Government Securities Fund      $177,257
New York Municipal Income Fund      139,980
Large Cap Value Fund      738,774
Large Cap Growth Fund      975
 
When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions —The Funds may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Funds record when-issued securities on the trade date and maintain security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to change in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.
 
Restricted Securities —Restricted securities are securities that may only be resold upon registration under federal securities laws or in transactions exempt from such registration. In some cases, the issuer of restricted securities has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer’s expense either upon demand by the Funds or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Such restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Directors. The Funds will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Funds’ restricted securities are valued at the price provided by dealers in the secondary market or, if no market prices are available, at the fair value as determined by the Funds’ pricing committee.
 
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 amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.
 
Other —Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.

FAS may voluntarily choose to waive a portion of its fee.
 
Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent and Fund Accounting Fee— Federated Services Company (“FServ”) provides the Funds with certain administrative personnel and fund accounting services. FServ through its subsidiary, Federated Shareholder Services Company, serves as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Funds. The fee paid to FServ is based on the level of average aggregate net assets of the Corporation for the period. FServ may voluntarily choose to waive a portion of its fee. FServ can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.
 
Distribution Services Fee— The Corporation has adopted a Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the terms of the Plan, Large Cap Value Fund, Mid Cap Stock Fund and Large Cap Growth Fund will compensate Federated Securities Corporation (“FSC”), the principal distributor, from the net assets of the Funds to finance activities intended to result in the sale of the Fund’s Class A Shares and Class B Shares. The Plan provides that each Fund will incur distribution expenses up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class A Shares and 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B Shares, annually, to compensate FSC. FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Shareholder Services Fee— Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company, the Funds will pay Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company up to 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Funds for the period. The fee paid to Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts.

Organizational Expenses— Organizational expenses were borne initially by Federated Administrative Services (“FAS”). The Fund has reimbursed FAS for these expenses. These expenses have been deferred and are being amortized over the five year period following the Fund’s effective date. For the year ended April 30, 2000, the following amount was expensed by the Fund:

(5)    Investment Transactions
 
Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term securities and the conversion securities related to the reorganization of Vision Capital Appreciation Fund and Vision Growth and Income Fund into Mid Cap Stock Fund, for the year ended April 30, 2000, were as follows:
 
Fund
     Purchases
     Sales
U.S. Government Securities Fund      $  26,235,433      $  26,895,151
New York Municipal Income Fund      $  16,418,292      $  18,474,243
Large Cap Value Fund      $  32,524,689      $  42,019,101
Mid Cap Stock Fund      $147,428,422      $161,647,048
Large Cap Growth Fund      $    6,451,714      $           27,049
 
(6)    Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Since New York Municipal Income Fund invests a substantial portion of its assets in issuers located in one state, it will be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of that state than would be a comparable tax-exempt mutual fund that invests nationally. In order to reduce the credit risk associated with such factors, at April 30, 2000, 40.2% of the total market value of the securities in the portfolio of investments are backed by letters of credit or bond insurance of various financial institutions and financial guaranty assurance agencies. The value of investments insured by or supported (backed) by a letter of credit from any one institution or agency did not exceed 6.4% of total market value of investments.
 
Report of Ernst & Young LLP, Independent Auditors

 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
VISION GROUP OF FUNDS, INC.:
 
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of the Vision U.S. Government Securities Fund, Vision New York Municipal Income Fund, Vision Large Cap Value Fund (formerly Vision Equity Income Fund), Vision Mid Cap Stock Fund and Vision Large Cap Growth Fund, (five of the portfolios constituting the Vision Group of Funds, Inc.) (the “Funds”), as of April 30, 2000, and the related statements of operations, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of April 30, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Vision U.S. Government Securities Fund, Vision New York Municipal Income Fund, Vision Large Cap Value Fund, Vision Mid Cap Stock Fund and Vision Large Cap Growth Fund portfolios of the Vision Group of Funds, Inc., at April 30, 2000, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and financial highlights for each of the periods presented therein, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
