DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS
June 30, 1997
The financial markets continued to be volatile in the first half of the year.
Bond yields remained within the 6.5% to 7.0% interest rate range they have been
in for the past year. Inflation has been the primary force in moving rates up or
down the yield curve. Concerns that the strong economy might increase inflation
kept rates from declining below 6.5%. On the other side, most of the economic
reports seem to indicate that inflation is not an immediate concern which kept
rates from rising above 7.0%.
Equity markets continued to advance until mid-February, when a 14%
correction began which lasted through the end of April. By early May, the equity
markets had regained their bull market momentum. There was evidence however,
that investors were concerned that many larger cap stocks were over valued and
could not maintain their double digit growth rates. Towards the end of the
second quarter, there were indications that some companies were not going to
meet their earnings targets and a shift began from larger cap to mid and smaller
cap stocks.
Pacific Advisors Income Fund ("Fund") had a total return of 3.88%, for the
six months ending June 30, 1997. The investment results are based on shares
purchased at the offering price, after deducting the Fund's current maximum
sales charge, on January 1, 1997 and held through June 30, 1997, with all
dividends and capital gains reinvested and after expense reimbursements. The
Merrill Lynch Intermediate and Long-term Corporate-Bond indexes, which are
unmanaged indices of total returns for corporate bonds, were 3.26% and 3.19%
respectively, for this same period.
Inflation will remain a concern for investors if the economy continues to
grow and unemployment rates stay at a historically low level. However, it does
not appear that inflation will become a major problem in the near term. During
the first two quarters, the economy grew more quickly due in part to inventory
buildup. As inventories have been replenished the economy appears to be slowing.
Global competition, restraint in government spending and productivity gains will
also contribute to lower inflation.
Under this scenario, the Fund began to purchase intermediate term (i.e.,
3-10 years) high quality and high coupon bonds. Most of the bonds purchased are
in the financial services sector. They include Citicorp, Bank of America,
Barnett Bank, Nations Bank and GMAC. The average maturity of the portfolio
increased from 2.4 years at the beginning of 1997, to 5.0 years by June 30.
At the end of June, fixed-income securities were 75% of the Fund's assets.
Corporate bonds represented 48% of the portfolio with 22% of the Fund's assets
in U.S. Treasury Notes. The remaining fixed-income securities were short term
investments.
Strong economic growth has been a primary catalyst for the bull market in
equities over the past three years. While the economy may slow to a more modest
growth rate the outlook for the equity market remains good. The Fund increased
the equity portion of the portfolio from 18% to 25% of the Fund's assets during
1997. Stocks added to the Fund include such household names as Travelers,
General Electric, Mobil, Gap and Microsoft. Over the next several months we
would expect the equity portion of the Fund to remain near its current level.
However, we anticipate adding high quality mid cap stocks that
1
<PAGE> 2
may have a greater potential for appreciation than many large cap stocks that
may be more fully valued.
We continue to believe that the long term outlook for bonds remains
favorable and that the Fund's investment strategy will provide good returns
without significant volatility or market risk. This is consistent with the
Fund's objective, to provide current income and capital appreciation while
conserving capital.
In March 1997, Pacific Global Investment Management Company and the Board of
Directors of Pacific Advisors Fund recommended a Co-management Agreement for
your approval. This agreement was approved by shareholders of the Fund in April.
Pacific Global Investment Management Company and Hamilton & Bache, Inc. are now
co-managing the Fund.
The name of the Fund is also being changed to Income & Equity effective
sometime in August or September. The name change more accurately reflects the
investment strategies of the Fund with its blend of fixed-income and equity
investments. There has been no change in the investment objectives and
guidelines for the Fund.
Please contact your financial adviser or Pacific Advisors Fund Inc., if you
have questions or would like more information on the Fund.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION
Pacific Advisors Fund Inc. (the "Company") is an open-end diversified
management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The Company was organized on May 18, 1992 as a Maryland
corporation and had no operations prior to February 8, 1993, other than those
relating to organizational matters including the sale of 2,778 shares of stock
of each of its four series ("Funds") at $9.00 per share to the Company's
investment manager, Pacific Global Investment Management Company ("Investment
Manager"). The Company currently offers four Funds: Small Cap Fund, Balanced
Fund, Income Fund, and Government Securities Fund. Each Fund is a separate
investment portfolio of the Company with a distinct investment objective,
investment program, policies, and restrictions. The Income Fund seeks to provide
current income and secondarily, long-term capital appreciation.
The Investment Manager paid the organizational and other initial
expenses of the Fund incurred prior to the initial offering of the Fund's
shares. However, the Fund has agreed to reimburse the Investment Manager for
such expenses. The organizational costs will be deferred and amortized by each
Fund over a period during which it is expected that a benefit will be realized,
but no longer than five years from the date of the Funds' commencement of
operations. Prepaid expenses will be amortized over a period not to exceed
twelve months.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. SECURITY VALUATION. Securities listed on a national securities
exchange and certain over-the-counter ("OTC") issues traded on the NASDAQ
national market system are valued at the last quoted sale price at the close of
the NYSE. OTC issues not quoted on NASDAQ system and other equity securities for
which no sale price is available, are valued at the last bid price as obtained
from published sources (including Quotron), where available, and otherwise from
brokers who are market makers for such securities. Debt securities with a
maturity of less than 60 days are valued on an amortized cost basis.
B. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME. Security transactions
are accounted for on the trade date. The cost of investments sold is determined
by use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and
Federal income tax purposes. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis.
C. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. The Income Fund declares
and distributes dividends of its net investment income, if any, quarterly. The
Board of Directors will determine the amount and timing of such payments.
D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. No provision is made for Federal taxes since
the Company intends to qualify as a regulated investment company and to make the
requisite distributions to its shareholders, which will be sufficient to relieve
it from Federal income and excise taxes.
E. ORGANIZATIONAL COSTS. Costs incurred by the Income Fund in connection
with its organization, registration and initial public offering of shares have
been deferred and are being amortized using the straight-line method over a
five-year period. During 1997, the Investment Manager assumed the amortization
expense of $5,495 for organizational expenses.
F. USE OF ESTIMATES. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management
9
<PAGE> 10
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 revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
NOTE 3. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, DISTRIBUTOR AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company and Income Fund have entered into an investment management
agreement ("Management Agreement") with the Investment Manager ("Investment
Manager"). The Management Agreement provides for investment management fees,
payable monthly, and calculated at the maximum annual rate of 0.75% of average
net assets for the Income Fund.
From time to time, the Investment Manager may voluntarily waive its
management fees, and/or absorb certain expenses for the Income Fund. Pursuant to
the voluntary waiver of fees and the assumption of expenses by the Investment
Manager, the following amounts were waived or reimbursed for the period from
January 1, 1997 to June 30, 1997 for the Income Fund, $4,915 of investment
management fees were waived and $26,453 was reimbursed by the Investment
Manager.
Fund operating expenses may not fall below the current expense level in
subsequent years until the Investment Manager has fully recouped fees forgone
and expenses paid or assumed, as the Fund will reimburse the Investment Manager
in subsequent years during which the Fund's total assets are greater than
$20,000,000. As of June 30, 1997, the cumulative amounts unrecouped by the
Investment Manager since the commencement of operations is $254,374.
For the period from January 1, 1997 to June 30, 1997, Pacific Global
Fund Distributors, Inc. ("PGFD"), the principal underwriter for the Company,
received $1,876 of commissions on sales of capital stock of the Income Fund,
after deducting $8,452 allowed to authorized distributors as commissions. For
the period from January 1, 1997 to June 30, 1997 PGFD earned $302 in introducing
brokerage fees related to securities transactions for the Income Fund. PGFD is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Investment Manager.
The Income Fund has entered into an agreement with Pacific Global
Investor Services, Inc. ("PGIS") to provide fund accounting services at the
monthly fee of three basis points for the first million in net assets or a
minimum of $1,250. In addition, an agreement to provide transfer agent services
has also been entered into at a monthly fee based on the number of accounts or a
minimum of $1,250. The Investment Manager has assumed all payments for these
services, including amounts payable at June 30, 1997. PGIS is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Investment Manager.
Certain officers of the Company are also officers of the Investment
Manager, PGFD and PGIS.
The Fund has adopted a plan of distribution, whereby the Income Fund may
pay a service fee in an amount up to 0.25% per annum of the Fund's average daily
net assets to qualified recipients. For the period from January 1, 1997 to June
30, 1997, $738 was accrued or paid.
NOTE 4. PURCHASE AND SALES OF SECURITIES
For the period from January 1, 1997 to June 30, 1997, the Income Fund
had purchases of securities, other than short-term investments of $837,871. The
cost of securities held is the same for Federal income tax and financial
reporting purposes.
Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and aggregate gross unrealized
depreciation on securities were $75,775 and $3,771 respectively. Net unrealized
appreciation for tax purposes is $72,004.
