Dear Shareholder:

     We are pleased to present you the Performance Funds' semi-annual report for
the period ended November 30, 1999. The Performance Funds comprise of The Money
Market Fund, The Short Term Government Income Fund, The Intermediate Term
Government Income Fund, The Large Cap Equity Fund, The Mid Cap Growth Fund, and
The Small Cap Fund. All funds are managed by Trustmark National Bank.

ECONOMIC REVIEW

     What a difference a year makes. This time last year the U.S. economy began
to show signs of slowing as investors' concerns were occupied by an economic
crisis in the emerging markets, eroded confidence in domestic politics, and
fears of an imminent global depression. Today, while the U.S. economy continues
to expand, its concerns are now directed toward market valuations, resurgent
global economies, and Y2K issues.

     Annual GDP growth through the 3Q'99 was a robust 5.5%, well above the Fed
target of 2.5%, and the unemployment rate has steadily declined to only 4.1%, a
30-year low. Chairman Greenspan's expressed concern regarding a potential
buildup of inflationary imbalances was never more evident this past summer &
fall when the Fed implemented three rates hikes of 25bp each between June and
November, negating 1998's three decreases of 25bp each. As long as U.S. GDP
growth continues above potential, global economies show signs of resurgence, and
core inflation begins to inch higher, the Fed will be compelled to raise rates
to keep GDP growth at a non-inflationary pace. While the markets do not expect
any further Fed action in front of Y2K, we feel the Fed could very well send a
strong signal to the markets early in 2000.

     While commonly quoted U.S. equity market indexes gave the impression of
another year of strong performance, they failed to reveal the poor market
breadth. Through September, approximately 70% of the stocks listed on the NYSE
had lost value for the year.* Only the Technology sector, fueled by corporate
investment in the Internet and semiconductor stocks, has been the stellar
performer in the indices, regardless of market capitalization. In an environment
such as this, it is important to stay focused on the long term.

     On the following pages you will find a detailed discussion of each fund's
performance. As always, we appreciate your support, welcome your comments, and
encourage you to talk with your investment representative should you have any
questions about your funds.

Sincerely,

/s/ John J. Pileggi

                           PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S REPORT

                         PERFORMANCE MONEY MARKET FUND

     The Performance Money Market Fund provided investors with a return of 2.49%
for the Institutional Class and 2.36% for the Consumer Class for the six month
period ended November 30, 1999. During this period, the 7-day yield of the Fund
fluctuated between a low yield of 4.67% on June 10 and a high yield of 5.20% on
November 30 (Institutional Class yields). Also during this six month period, the
Federal Reserve raised the target rate for Fed Funds three times from a low rate
of 4.75% to the current 5.50% rate. This has had a direct impact on the Fund
since the investments that the Fund uses generally track the direction in which
the Fed Funds rate moves. These higher Fed Rates were in response to the
continued threat that there might be some type of inflation spike during the
year because of tight labor markets along with the rapid rise in oil prices over
the six month period. As measured by CPI, the inflation rate has moved higher in
the past few months from 2.00% in June to 2.60% at the end of November. Going
forward the Federal Reserve will continue to monitor the inflation situation
closely and along with the continued shortage of quality labor in many areas may
signal more interest rate hikes in the near future.

     The Fund invests primarily in high-quality, short-term instruments such as
U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. Government Agency issues, bankers acceptances,
commercial paper, and repurchase agreements. The Fund is considered a first tier
Fund as a result of the high quality of the Fund's holdings per the respective
ratings from Standard and Poor's (A-1 or A-1+) and Moody's (P1).

                                          Signed,

                 PERFORMANCE SHORT TERM GOVERNMENT INCOME FUND

     In spite of an aggressive stance by the Fed, expectations of higher
inflation, and investor uncertainty hovering around Y2K, the Performance Short
Term Government Fund provided a 1.74% return (Institutional Class) during the
first six months of the fiscal year. Short bond prices fell, as rates in this
sector rose 60 basis points or more. The Fed moved the target borrowing rate 3
times to 5.50%, up .75%, in a preemptive effort to control inflation. The
nation's low unemployment rate seems to be the key issue around the Fed's
actions. Commodity prices, primarily oil, are the leading contributors to
inflation fears. Productivity gains have been sufficient to soften finished
goods price increases, for now. We feel Y2K uncertainty will soon be a memory,
and even the hardcore pessimists will again wish to earn interest on their cash.

     Although share price declined, during this period, we are moving into a
very favorable investment environment with the higher level of rates. Two-year
Treasury Notes now yield over 6.00%, and other bond sectors such as agencies and
high grade corporate notes are extremely attractive. These rates will enhance
our continuing strategy of this fund, and reward investors who are willing to
sustain a small amount of price volatility, to capture the higher returns over
time offered in the 1 to 3 year bond sector.

              PERFORMANCE INTERMEDIATE TERM GOVERNMENT INCOME FUND

     At the end of November 1999, interest rates were near two-year highs. 10
year Treasury Notes have risen over 150 basis points this year to a level of
6.19%. This compares to a 110 basis point rise in CPI measured inflation to a
level of 2.6%. The rising rate cycle, and subsequent decline in bond prices has
diminished investment performance, resulting in the Performance Intermediate
Intermediate Term Government Fund having a -0.35% return (Institutional Class)
during the first half of our fiscal year.

     Interest rates have risen to compensate us for higher inflation, as well as
a number of other factors: 1) Private debt issuers are creating huge supply.
When supply is heavy, investors demand higher yields to buy the new issues; 2)
Investors are Y2K weary. Many are holding back investments till after year-end;
3) Our domestic economy is maintaining a very low unemployment rate. This is
considered inflationary, as higher incomes create higher consumer demand; 4)
Foreign economies have started to rebound. Many of the countries which suffered
in 1998 are showing signs of growth; 5) The Fed is actively putting financial
restraints in place, in an effort to squelch possible inflation. Fed action has
been quick, and ahead of schedule compared to other historical growth cycles.

     All of these factors contributing to higher rates are manageable. As
interest rates rise, debt issuance will slow. We believe the Y2K weary investor
will emerge with vigor in the first quarter of 2000. Our productivity levels are
breaking down the old rules that low unemployment leads to high inflation.
Foreign economies are growing, but on shaky ground. The Fed has been "ahead of
the game", steadily pushing up rates before inflation gets out of control.

     While the current situation may seem bleak, the increase in rates has
provided bond investment opportunities similar to those seen at the end of 1988
and 1994. Although the road ahead will be choppy, the levels of interest rates
as they stand will give us the staying power we need to ride out this cycle. We
intend to view the bond market as opportunistic, not apocalyptic, and enhance
our share dividend with the higher yielding bonds we are now offered.

                       PERFORMANCE LARGE CAP EQUITY FUND

     For the six month period ending November 30, 1999 the Large Cap Equity Fund
returned 5.94% for its Institutional Class holders and 5.80% for its Class A
holders**. The S&P 500 was up 7.41% for the same period.

     Again, the Technology sector was the area for some outstanding performance.
Cisco was up 67%, Intel 51%, and Motorola 45%. Several of our Financial holdings
were among the top performers. American Express was up 28%, Citigroup 26%, and
Morgan Stanley Dean Witter 32%. Other outstanding performers included Home Depot
which was up 42%, Warner Lambert 46%, and General Electric 27%. There were some
names which have been part of our core holdings for a long period which offset
some of our gains. Gillette was down 21%, Norfolk Southern 35%, and Ceridian
33%.

     We are still facing more earnings questions and more volatility. Our
efforts and resources continue to be directed at security selection and not
market timing. Listed below are the ten largest holdings in the Fund at November
30, 1999.*

                         PERFORMANCE MIDCAP EQUITY FUND

     For the six months ending November 30, 1999 the MidCap Equity Fund
Institutional shares returned 7.42%, the Class A shares returned 7.27%**, and
the Class B shares returned 6.81%***. This compares favorably to the S&P MidCap
400 Index which increased 6.77%.

     The relative performance of the Fund was favorably impacted by holdings in
the technology and retailing sectors. Specifically, the shares of American Power
Conversion increased 31% in the period, and Altera Corp rose 55%. Retailers BJ's
Wholesale Club and Tiffany & Co saw their shares increase 45% and 84%,
respectively. On the downside, positions in Outback Steakhouse (down 33%) and
utility NiSource (down 31%) penalized performance. Other disappointments
included E*Trade Group (down 23%) and Jones Apparel, which fell 12%.

     The Fund focuses on those companies in the MidCap Index we believe to have
increasing earnings prospects and attractive valuations. Although a handful of
large, successful companies are trading at lofty levels, many companies in our
universe are less generously priced. We expect this will result in very
satisfactory returns over the coming quarters and years. Listed below are the
ten largest holdings in the Fund at November 30, 1999:

                       PERFORMANCE SMALL CAP EQUITY FUND

     For the six months ended November 30, 1999, the Small Cap Fund returned
1.84% (Institutional Class) and 1.73% (Class A shares)**. This compares to the
S&P 600 SmallCap Index which returned 4.48% for the same period.

     The small capitalization market continues to narrow with fewer and fewer
companies participating. The technology sector is clearly leading the market and
has been the only sector of significance to beat the index. Meanwhile, a large
number of reasonably priced companies are being ignored by the market.

     In the fund, we had some success with companies including: CTS Corporation
(4.05%), which was up 186% for the period, Zebra Corp. (4.07%), up 88%, and
C-Cube Microsystems (1.58%), which returned 79% through November. Performance in
the fund was negatively affected by owning companies such as Shopko Stores
(0.76%) and Universal Health Services (0.56%), down 36% and 34% respectively.
Also, the fund did not participate in some of the more volatile stocks in the
index such as Aspect Communication and Three-Five Systems, up 288% and 216%
respectively.

PERFORMANCE FUNDS TRUST
Notes to Financial Statements -- November 30, 1999 (Unaudited)

     1. Organization.  Performance Funds Trust (the "Trust") is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end
management investment company. The Trust was organized as a Delaware business
trust on March 11, 1992 and currently consists of seven separate portfolios: The
U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, The Money Market Fund, The Short Term
Government Income Fund, The Intermediate Term Government Income Fund, The Large
Cap Equity Fund, The Mid Cap Equity Fund (formerly, the Mid Cap Growth Fund),
and The Small Cap Equity Fund (formerly, the Small Cap Fund), collectively (the
"Funds"), or individually (the "Fund"), each, with three classes of shares, the
Institutional Class, Class A (formerly, Consumer Service Class), and Class B,
except for The Short Term Government Income Fund which offers the Institutional
Class and Class A shares only. The classes differ primarily with respect to the
level of Distribution Fees borne by each share class. In addition, certain
redemptions of Class B shares are subject to contingent deferred sales charges
in accordance with the Fund's prospectus. Currently, six of the portfolios are
active and one, The U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, has not yet commenced
operations.

     The Funds' investment objectives are as follows:

        The Money Market Fund -- as high a level of current income as is
        consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity.

        The Short Term Government Income Fund -- as high a level of current
        income as is consistent with limiting the risk of potential loss.

        The Intermediate Term Government Income Fund -- a high level of current
        income, with a secondary objective of total return.

        The Large Cap Equity Fund -- long-term capital appreciation by investing
        primarily in common stocks of U.S. companies with market capitalization
        exceeding $1 billion at the time of purchase.

        The Mid Cap Equity Fund -- to achieve growth of capital by attempting to
        outperform the S&P MidCap Index.

        The Small Cap Equity Fund -- long-term capital appreciation by investing
        in smaller-capitalized common stocks.

     2. Significant Accounting Policies.  The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual amounts could differ from
those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial
statements:

          Security Valuation.  Securities listed on a national exchange or
     exchanges for which market quotations are available are valued at their
     last quoted sale price on each business day. If there is no such reported
     sale, the most recently quoted bid price is used. Over-the-counter
     securities are valued on the basis of the bid price at the close of
     business on each business day. The Money Market Fund values its securities
     at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which no
     market quotation is readily available are valued at fair value as
     determined in good faith under the direction of the Board of Trustees.

          Security Transactions and Related Investment Income.  Security
     transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain or loss
     on the sale of investments determined by using the identified cost method.
     Corporate actions (including cash dividends) are recorded on the ex-date or
     as soon after the ex-date as the fund becomes aware of such action, net of
     any non-refundable tax withholdings. Interest income (including
     amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded as earned.

PERFORMANCE FUNDS TRUST
Notes to Financial Statements (continued) -- November 30, 1999 (Unaudited)

          Repurchase Agreements.  The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements
     with government securities dealers recognized by the Federal Reserve Board,
     with member Banks of the Federal Reserve System or with such other brokers
     or dealers that meet the credit guidelines established by the Board of
     Trustees. It is the Funds' policy to receive and maintain securities as
     collateral whose market value, including accrued interest, will be at least
     100% of the dollar amount invested by that Fund in each agreement, and that
     Fund will make payment for such securities only upon physical delivery or
     upon evidence of book entry transfer to the account of the custodian. To
     the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, it is
     the Funds' policy that the value of the collateral be marked to market on a
     daily basis to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. If the seller
     defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if bankruptcy
     proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security,
     realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.

          Determination of Net Asset Value and Calculation of
     Expenses.  Expenses specific to an individual Fund are charged to that
     Fund, while the expenses that are attributable to more than one fund of the
     Trust are allocated among the respective funds. Investment income, realized
     and unrealized gains and losses and expenses other than class specific
     expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the
     proportion of shares outstanding attributed to each class at the beginning
     of each day. In addition, distribution expenses that are attributable to a
     specific class are charged only to that class.

          Dividends and Distributions.  The Money Market, The Short Term
     Government Income and The Intermediate Term Government Income Funds declare
     dividends daily and pay those dividends monthly. The Large Cap Equity, The
     Mid Cap Equity and The Small Cap Equity Funds declare and pay dividends
     monthly. Each Fund will distribute, at least annually, substantially all
     net capital gains, if any, earned by such Fund. The Funds record all
     dividends and distributions on the ex-dividend date.

          The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of
     distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with
     federal income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted
     accounting principles. The "book/tax" differences are either considered
     temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are
     permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition
     of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary
     differences do not require reclassification.

          Dividends and distributions to shareholders which exceed net
     investment income and net realized capital gains for financial reporting
     purposes but not for tax purposes are reported as distributions in excess
     of net investment income or distributions in excess of net realized gains.
     To the extent they exceed net investment income and net realized gains for
     tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of capital.

          Federal Income Taxes.  It is the policy of each Fund to qualify or
     continue as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions
     available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable
     sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net
     investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it
     from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes

          Organization Expenses.  Costs incurred in connection with the
     organization and initial registration of each Fund were deferred and are
     being amortized over a sixty-month period beginning with each Fund's
     commencement of operations.

     3. Advisory and Custodian Agreements.  The Funds have entered into an
Advisory Contract with Trustmark National Bank ("Trustmark"). Under the Advisory
Contract, Trustmark is responsible for managing the investments of the Funds and
for continually reviewing, supervising and administering the Funds' investments.
For the advisory services it provides to the Funds, Trustmark is entitled to a
fee computed daily and paid monthly, based on average daily net assets, at the
following annual rates: Money Market Fund, 0.30%; Short Term Government Income
Fund,

0.40%; Intermediate Term Government Income Fund, 0.50%; Large Cap Equity Fund,
0.60%; Mid Cap Equity Fund, 0.75% and Small Cap Equity Fund, 1.00%.

     For the six months ended November 30, 1999, Trustmark waived advisory fees
of $289,403, $40,596 and $40,062 for the Money Market Fund, Intermediate Term
Government Income Fund and Small Cap Equity Fund, respectively.

     Pursuant to a Custodian Agreement between the Trust and Trustmark National
Bank, Trustmark is the Custodian of the Funds' cash and securities. For these
services, Trustmark is entitled to a fee computed daily and paid monthly, based
on average daily net assets, at the annual rate of 0.04%. For the six months
ended November 30, 1999, Trustmark earned the custody fees shown in the
statement of operations.

     4. Administration, Distribution, Fund Accounting and Transfer Agency
Agreements.  BISYS Fund Services ("BISYS LP"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The
BISYS Group, Inc., is an Ohio limited partnership. BISYS LP, with whom certain
officers and trustees of the Funds are affiliated, serves as the Trust's
administrator and assists the Trust in all aspects of its administration and
operation. Such officers and trustees are paid no fees directly by the Funds for
serving as officers and trustees of the Funds. The Administrator is entitled to
a fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.15% of the
average net assets of the Funds. For the six months ended November 30, 1999,
BISYS LP waived administrator fees of $199,148 for the Money Market Fund.

     Under a Distribution Plan adopted by the Funds under Rule 12b-1 of the 1940
Act, each Fund may, with respect to its Class A and Class B Shares, pay fees to
Performance Funds Distributor, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an indirect wholly
owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc., up to an annual rate of 0.35% and
1.00% of the respective average daily net assets attributable to such shares for
costs and expenses of the Distributor in connection with the distribution of the
Class A and Class B shares. No such fees will be paid by the Institutional
Class. In addition, BISYS has the right, as principal underwriter, to purchase
Fund shares at their net asset value and to sell such shares to the public, or
to dealers who have entered into selected dealer agreements with the
Distributor, in both cases against orders for such shares.

     For the six months ended November 30, 1999, BISYS received $266,967 from
commissions earned on sales of the Performance Funds of which $263,365 was
re-allowed to Trustmark Financial Services, Performance Funds Distributor,
Trustmark National Bank and BISYS Fund Services (affiliated broker/dealers).

     For the six months ended November 30, 1999, the fees incurred amounted to
0.25% and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of each Fund's Class A and Class
B respectively.

     BISYS Fund Services, Inc. serves the Trust as fund accountant. Under the
current terms, effective on October 1, 1998, of the fund accounting agreement,
BISYS LP is entitled to receive an annual fee of $30,000 per fund plus $5,000
per additional class and is reimbursed for certain out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in providing fund accounting services.

     BISYS Fund Services, Inc. serves the Trust as transfer agent. Under the
current terms, effective on October 1, 1998, of the transfer agency agreement,
BISYS LP is entitled to receive an annual fee of $15.00 per account plus $7,000
per class per fund and is reimbursed for certain out-of-pocket expenses incurred
in providing transfer agency services.
