THE HENLOPEN FUND
ANNUAL REPORT JUNE 30, 1996
MANAGED BY LANDIS ASSOCIATES, INC. (302) 654-3131
To My Fellow Shareholders:
We are pleased to report that the Fund posted a strong 38.4% return for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996. This performance compares favorably to the
26.0% and 20.7% returns of the S&P 500 and Lipper Growth Fund Index,
respectively. The average annual compounded rate of return of the Fund was 23.8%
for the period from December 2, 1992 (the effective date of the Fund's
registration statement) through June 30, 1996.
The Fund was successful in outperforming the market by adhering rigorously to
its time-tested fundamental research discipline. Our priority continues to be
the search for individual businesses that will excel in terms of growth and
profitability regardless of the overall level of economic activity. That
philosophy served our shareholders particularly well during a fiscal year
characterized by slowing economic growth and increased market volatility.
The portfolio continues to be very well diversified with more than 90 stocks,
none accounting for more than 5% of total assets. The portfolio is represented
by diverse industries as a sample of top holdings shows: Action Performance, a
fast grower capitalizing on the popularity of the NASCAR racing circuit (up 103%
since purchase); Flores & Rucks, a successful oil and gas producer (up 109%);
Markel Corp., a specialty insurer (up 50%) and Osicom Technologies, an
innovative participant in the networking area (up 216%). These companies are
good examples of our eclectic growth approach to investing.
Last May the Fund reached the $25 million asset milestone, which allowed the
Fund to be listed by NASDAQ under the symbol HENLX. National newspapers now
carry our NAV quotations on a daily basis.
To ensure continuation of our profitable growth, we strengthened our management
team with the addition of William Dugdale, who joined from Jennison Associates,
a New York based investment firm with $30 billion under management, and Lorenzo
Villalon, who came from Friess Associates, a $9 billion investment firm.
We are particularly pleased to report that Morningstar awarded the Fund its top
five star rating based on its three-year performance. We were ranked among a
universe of 1,848 equity funds, of which only 10% received the five star
designation.
The Board of Trustees has declared a distribution of $1.5228 from short-term
realized capital gains which will be treated as ordinary income, and $0.2591
from long-term realized capital gains. Your distribution confirmation is
enclosed.
We thank you for your continued confidence and support and look forward to
another successful year.
Sincerely yours,
/s/ Michael L. Hershey

</TABLE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES --
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of The Henlopen
Fund (the "Fund"), which was organized as a Delaware Business Trust on
September 17, 1992 and is registered as an open-end management company under
the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fund commenced operations on December
2, 1992. The investment objective of the Fund is long-term capital
appreciation.
(a) Each security, excluding short-term investments, is valued at the
last sale price reported by the principal security exchange on which the
issue is traded, or if no sale is reported, the latest bid price.
Securities which are traded over-the-counter are valued at the latest bid
price. Securities for which quotations are not readily available are
valued at fair value as determined by the investment adviser under the
supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term investments are valued at
cost which approximates quoted market value. Investment transactions are
recorded no later than the first business day after the trade date. Cost
amounts, as reported on the statement of net assets, are the same for
Federal income tax purposes.
(b) Net realized gains and losses on common stock are computed on the
basis of the cost of specific certificates.
(c) Provision has not been made for Federal income taxes since the Fund
has elected to be taxed as a "regulated investment company" and intends to
distribute substantially all income to its shareholders and otherwise
comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to
regulated investment companies.
(d) Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income
is recorded on the accrual basis.
(e) The Fund has investments in short-term variable rate demand notes,
which are unsecured instruments. The Fund may be susceptible to credit
risk with respect to these notes to the extent the issuer defaults on its
payment obligation. The Fund's policy is to monitor the creditworthiness
of the issuer and does not anticipate nonperformance by these
counterparties.
(f) Generally accepted accounting principles require that permanent
financial reporting and tax differences for overdistributed net investment
income be reclassified to capital stock.
(g) 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 revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
(2) INVESTMENT ADVISER AND MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED
PARTIES --
The Fund has a management agreement with Landis Associates, Inc. (the
"Adviser"), with whom certain officers and directors of the Fund are
affiliated, to serve as investment adviser and manager. Under the terms of
the agreement, the Fund will pay the Adviser a monthly management fee at the
annual rate of 1% on the daily net assets of the Fund.
(3) DISTRIBUTION TO SHAREHOLDERS --
Net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are distributed to
shareholders. On July 29, 1996, the Fund distributed $2,462,781 from net
short-term realized gains ($1.5228 per share) and $419,018 ($0.2591 per
share) from long-term realized gains. The distributions were paid on July 30,
1996, to shareholders of record on July 26, 1996. The percentage of this
ordinary income distribution which is eligible for the corporate dividend
received deduction is 1%.
(4) DEFERRED EXPENSES --
Organizational expenses were deferred and are being amortized on a straight-
line basis over a period of five years beginning with the date of sales of
shares to the public. These expenses were advanced by the Adviser who will be
reimbursed by the Fund over a period of five years. The proceeds of any
redemption of the initial shares by the original shareholder will be reduced
by a pro-rata portion of any then unamortized deferred expenses in the same
proportion as the number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the number
of initial shares outstanding at the time of such redemption. The unamortized

To the Shareholders and Trustees
of The Henlopen Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets and the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial
highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
The Henlopen Fund (the "Fund") at June 30, 1996, the results of its operations
for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years
in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the three
years in the period then ended and for the period from December 2, 1992
(commencement of operations) through June 30, 1993, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and financial
highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits, which included confirmation of securities at June 30, 1996 by
correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.
