LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS Money Market Funds
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
Thank you for your investment in the Stagecoach Funds.
We are pleased to present this Semi-Annual Report to you for the period ended
September 30, 1998. This report provides information about your investment,
including economic and market trends over the period as well as a performance
summary, portfolio review, and strategic outlook for each Fund.
During the six-month period ended September 30, 1998, global economic events
finally caught up with U.S. financial markets. Most acutely affected were
stocks, as measured by the S&P 500 Index,(1) with a decrease of 6.95%. By
contrast, fixed income securities did well, due to a "flight to quality" in
which investors sought to invest in U.S. Treasury securities. For example,
government bonds performed well during this period, with returns of 12.74% as
measured by the Lehman Brothers Long Government Bond Index.(2)
Throughout the period, the continued uncertainty in Asia's financial markets
spread into global economies, such as Russia and Latin America. Thus far, there
has been minimal evidence of a slowdown in the U.S. economy. However, over the
past six months, pressure built on the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) to ease
monetary policy, as there was the potential for global and financial strains to
affect the U.S. market. As a result, the Fed decreased a key short-term interest
rate once on September 29, 1998 and again on October 15, 1998. This signaled an
important change in policy meant to impact the economy and hopefully stimulate
growth.
According to the Investment Company Institute, during 1997, U.S. households
invested 65% of their total net purchases of financial products in mutual
funds.(3) Many of these investors have benefited from unprecedented growth in
the market with little exposure to significant declines. However, the large
swings we have seen recently will test conservative and aggressive

investors alike. It will become increasingly important to stay focused on the
long-term, evaluate the investment risk of your portfolio, and remain true to
your investment plan.
In our ongoing commitment to provide you with quality investment options, we
introduced two new Stagecoach Funds during the past six months. We launched the
Corporate Bond Fund in April 1998 and the Strategic Income Fund in July 1998.
We encourage you to review this Semi-Annual Report as we believe you will find
it useful and informative. We also recommend that you continually review your
investment portfolio with your financial consultant to determine an appropriate
mix of investments to meet your ongoing needs. Thank you for your continued
investment with the Stagecoach Funds.
Sincerely,

NATIONAL TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET FUND - INSTITUTIONAL CLASS
The Stagecoach National Tax-Free Money Market Fund (the "Fund") seeks to
provide investors with a high level of income exempt from federal income tax,
while preserving capital and liquidity.
The Fund is managed by Kevin Shaughnessy of Wells Capital Management
Incorporated. Mr. Shaughnessy joined Wells Fargo Bank in 1996 from Lehman
Brothers. He holds a BS in Business Administration and an MBA in Finance from
California State University, Hayward. Mr. Shaughnessy has over 10 years of
experience in the investment industry and is a Chartered Financial Analyst
candidate.
PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
The cumulative total return for the six-month period ended September 30, 1998
for the Fund was 1.59%. The seven-day current yield for the Stagecoach National
Tax-Free Money Market Fund as of September 30, 1998 was 3.49%.
This tax-free yield is generally higher than the after-tax return on a
comparable taxable investment. For example, an investor in the maximum federal
income tax bracket of 39.60% would need to earn 5.78% from a taxable investment
to match a 3.49% tax-free yield. Keep in mind that past performance is no
guarantee of future results.
PORTFOLIO REVIEW
As a result of the low interest rate environment and in anticipation of an
interest rate decrease by the Federal Reserve Board, which occurred on September
29, 1998, we lengthened the Fund's weighted average maturity during the
six-month reporting period. Weighted average maturity is an indication of a
fund's sensitivity to interest rates. Our strategy to increase maturity was made
in an attempt to capture higher yields offered by securities such as one-year
tax-exempt notes and commercial paper. In addition, we decreased our exposure to
variable-rate securities during the period.

<PAGE>
INVESTMENT ADVISOR COMMENTARY Money Market Funds
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on international economic problems, particularly in the Asian markets,
the importance of the Fund's credit quality component increased. As a result, we
sold the Fund's Japanese exposures at the beginning of the year and continue to
avoid such securities. While they may offer higher yields than other securities,
we feel it is more important to remain proactive and protective of credit
quality.
STRATEGIC OUTLOOK
We feel the concern over global markets will eventually work its way into our
domestic economy and consumer spending. Since yields have already declined in
the money fund market, we will continue to maintain longer maturities in the
Fund and will increase our fixed-rate exposure if we feel security prices are
attractive.
Overall, we feel the Fund is positioned well given the international economic
turmoil and low interest rate environment. As a result, we intend to maintain
the Fund at its current positioning with a bias toward longer maturity and
fixed-rate securities. As always, we will continue to focus on safety of
principal, credit quality and liquidity as we strive to deliver a high level of
tax-free income.
The Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government. Figures
quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
A portion of the Fund's distributions may be subject to federal, state, and/or
local taxes or the alternative minimum tax (AMT).
The Fund's manager has voluntarily waived all or a portion of its management
fees or assumed responsibility for other expenses, which reduces operating
expenses and increases total return to shareholders. Without these reductions,
the Fund's returns would have been lower.
Money market funds seek to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share;
however, there can be no assurance that the Fund will meet this objective.

PRIME MONEY MARKET FUND - INSTITUTIONAL CLASS
TREASURY PLUS MONEY MARKET FUND - INSTITUTIONAL CLASS
TWO STAGECOACH MONEY MARKET FUNDS (EACH, A "FUND", COLLECTIVELY, THE "FUNDS")
WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED IN THE FOLLOWING MANAGER DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.
The Stagecoach Prime Money Market Fund seeks to provide investors with
maximized current income to the extent consistent with preservation of capital
and maintenance of liquidity.
The Stagecoach Treasury Plus Money Market Fund seeks to provide investors with
current income and stability of principal. The name of the Fund changed from
Stagecoach Treasury Money Market Mutual Fund on August 1, 1998.
The Funds are managed by Michael Neitzke of Wells Capital Management
Incorporated. Mr. Neitzke joined Wells Fargo Bank in 1996 from First Interstate
Capital Management. He has over a decade of experience in managing taxable money
market mutual funds at First Interstate Bank and Union Capital Advisors. He
holds a BA in Finance from California State University, Los Angeles.

PORTFOLIO REVIEW
Throughout the period, the U.S. economy was subject to volatile market
conditions caused by international economic turmoil in markets such as Asia,
Russia and Latin America. One outcome of these conditions was a "flight to
quality" in which investors moved into treasury securities, driving interest
rates down rapidly. The problems overseas and an anticipation of an interest
rate cut by the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) which eventually occurred on
September 29, led us to lengthen the weighted average maturities of our Funds by
adding later dated securities. Weighted average maturity is an indication of a
fund's sensitivity to interest rates. By adding later dated securities to our
portfolios, we were able to maintain competitive yields in the low interest rate
environment.
The effects of the flight to quality had a particularly strong impact on the
U.S. Treasury market, causing treasury yields to decline more than any other
type of short-term security. Our strategy was to hold larger positions in
repurchase agreements in the Treasury Plus Money Market Fund in order to
increase yield and liquidity. We were still able to maintain a high credit
quality in the Fund's portfolio since the repurchase agreements are backed by
U.S. Treasury securities.
With a strict focus on high credit quality for the Funds, we did not add to
our foreign positions during the period and do not hold any positions that have
had their credit quality downgraded. We will continue to avoid securities that
could be adversely affected by problems overseas. By maintaining high credit
quality, liquidity and longer maturities, we were able to maintain stability and
competitive yields for the period.
STRATEGIC OUTLOOK
We feel the concern over global markets will continue to work its way into our
domestic economy and affect
8

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
consumer spending. We will continue to maintain longer average maturities in our
Funds as we expect the Fed to continue to ease monetary policy. We will monitor
interest rates, being particularly mindful that the market might anticipate the
Fed to decrease rates more than will actually occur.
We feel the Funds are well positioned given the current international economic
conditions and low interest rate environment. As a result, we intend to maintain
the Funds at their current positioning with a bias toward a defensive posture
and increased liquidity. We believe under these uncertain economic conditions,
it is prudent to focus more on credit quality and stability rather than purely
on yield. As always, we will continue to focus on capital preservation and
liquidity.
The Funds are neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government. Figures
quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
The Funds' manager has voluntarily waived all or a portion of its management
fees or assumed responsibility for other expenses, which reduces operating
expenses and increases total return to shareholders. Without these reductions,
the Funds' returns would have been lower.
Money market funds seek to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share;
however, there can be no assurance that the Funds will meet this objective.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
Stagecoach Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end series
management investment company. The Company commenced operations on January 1,
1992, and is currently comprised of thirty-three separate series. These
financial statements represent the National Tax-Free Money Market, Prime Money
Market, and Treasury Plus Money Market Funds (each, a "Fund", collectively, the
"Funds"), each a diversified series of the Company.
Prior to August 1, 1998 the National Tax-Free Money Market, Prime Money Market
and Treasury Plus Money Market Funds were known as the "National Tax-Free Money
Market Mutual", "Prime Money Market Mutual" and "Treasury Money Market Mutual"
Funds, respectively.
At a meeting held on July 23, 1997, the Boards of Directors of Overland
Express Funds, Inc. ("Overland") and the Company approved a consolidation
agreement providing for the transfer of the assets and liabilities of each
Overland fund to a corresponding fund of the Company in exchange for shares of
designated classes of the corresponding Stagecoach fund (the "Consolidation").
The Consolidation was subsequently approved by Overland shareholders. As a
result of this Consolidation, effective at the close of business on December 12,
1997, Stagecoach National Tax-Free Money Market, Stagecoach Prime Money Market
and Stagecoach Treasury Plus Money Market Funds acquired all of the assets and
assumed all of the liabilities of the Overland National Tax-Free Institutional
Money Market, Overland Money Market and Overland U.S. Treasury Money Market
Funds, respectively. All acquisitions were accomplished in separate tax-free
exchanges for shares of the respective Fund.
At the time of the Consolidation, the National Tax-Free Money Market Fund,
structured as a "feeder" Fund in a "master-feeder" structure, was restructured
to invest directly in a portfolio of securities, rather than to invest in
portfolio securities through a "master" portfolio (the "Master Portfolio"). The
Master Portfolio distributed all of its assets and liabilities in-kind to its
interestholders and wound up its affairs (the "Dissolution"). The Dissolution
occurred at the close of business on December 12, 1997.
At a special shareholders meeting on July 16, 1996, the Shareholders of
Pacifica Funds Trust ("Pacifica") approved a plan of reorganization providing
for the transfer of the assets and liabilities of each Pacifica portfolio to a
corresponding fund of the Company in exchange for shares of designated classes
of the corresponding Stagecoach fund. As a result of this reorganization,
effective September 6, 1996, the Stagecoach Prime Money Market and Treasury
39
<PAGE>
Money Market Funds NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plus Money Market Funds were established to acquire all of the assets and assume
all of the liabilities of the Pacifica Prime Money Market and Treasury Money
Market Funds, respectively (collectively, the "Predecessor Funds"). These
acquisitions were accomplished in separate exchanges for shares of the
respective Fund. All performance and financial data for the Prime Money Market
and Treasury Plus Money Market Funds for periods prior to September 6, 1996
refers to the Predecessor Funds.
The National Tax-Free Money Market Fund offers Class A and Institutional Class
shares. The Prime Money Market and Treasury Plus Money Market Funds offer Class
A, Administrative Class, Institutional Class, and Service Class shares. The
Treasury Plus Money Market Fund also offers Class E shares. The separate classes
of shares differ principally in the applicable sales charges (if any),
distribution fees, shareholder servicing fees and transfer agency fees.
Shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that
particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund and earn
income from the portfolio pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each
class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are determined
separately for each class based on income and expenses allocable to each class.
Realized gains are allocated to each class pro rata based on the net assets of
each class on the date of distribution. No class has preferential dividend
rights. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from the
relative weightings of pro rata income and realized gain and loss allocations
and from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution,
shareholder servicing and transfer agency fees.
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the
Company in the preparation of its financial statements, and such policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for investment
companies.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities, 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.
SECURITY VALUATION
The Funds invest only in securities with remaining maturities not exceeding
397 days (thirteen months). Certain floating- and variable-rate instruments in
40
<PAGE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Money Market Funds
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
the portfolios may have maturities in excess of 397 days, but carry a demand
feature that permits the holder to tender the instruments back to the issuer at
par value prior to maturity.
The Funds use the amortized cost method to value their portfolio securities.
The amortized cost method involves valuing a security at its cost, plus
accretion of discount or minus amortization of premium over the period until
maturity, which approximates market value. The Funds seek to maintain a constant
net asset value of $1.00 per share, although there is no assurance that they
will be able to do so.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income is
accrued daily. Realized gains or losses are reported on the basis of identified
cost of securities delivered. Bond discounts are accreted and premiums are
amortized under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code").
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
Transactions involving purchases of securities under agreements to resell such
securities ("repurchase agreements") are treated as collateralized financing
transactions and are recorded at their contracted resale amounts. These
repurchase agreements, if any, are detailed in each Fund's Portfolio of
Investments. The Funds may participate in pooled repurchase agreement
transactions with other funds advised by Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. ("WFB"). The
repurchase agreements must be fully collateralized based on values that are
marked to market daily. The collateral may be held by an agent bank under a
tri-party agreement. It is the custodian's responsibility to value collateral
daily and to take action to obtain additional collateral as necessary to
maintain market value equal to or greater than the resale price. The repurchase
agreements held by the Funds are collateralized by instruments such as U.S.
Treasury or federal agency obligations.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends to shareholders from net investment income, if any, are declared
daily and distributed monthly. Any distributions to shareholders from net
realized capital gains are declared and distributed at least annually.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. It
is the policy of each Fund of the Company to continue to qualify as a regulated
41
<PAGE>
Money Market Funds NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
investment company by complying with the provisions applicable to regulated
investment companies, as defined in the Code, and to make distributions of
substantially all of its investment company taxable income and any net realized
capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to
relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no
provision for federal income taxes was required at September 30, 1998. The
National Tax-Free Money Market Fund had net capital loss carryforwards at
September 30, 1998 as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
YEAR CAPITAL LOSS
FUND EXPIRES CARRYFORWARDS
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
<S> <C> <C>
National Tax-Free Money Market Fund 2003 $ 6,351
2004 437
2006 3,692
</TABLE>
Any loss carryforwards from Overland are included in the Fund's carryforwards
as shown above. The Company's Board of Directors intends to offset net capital
gains with each capital loss carryforward, and no capital gain distribution
shall be made until each such carryforward has been fully utilized or expires.
Due to the timing of dividend distributions and the differences in accounting
for income and realized gains (losses) for financial statement and federal
income tax purposes, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ
from the year in which the income and realized gains (losses) were recorded by a
Fund. The differences between the income or gains distributed on a book versus
tax basis are shown as excess distributions of net investment income and net
realized gain on sales of investments in the accompanying Statements of Changes
in Net Assets. The amount of distributions from net investment income and net
realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These "book/tax" differences are either
considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent that these
differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the
capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary
differences do not require reclassifications.
DEFERRED ORGANIZATION COSTS
Certain costs incurred in connection with the organization of the Funds and
their initial registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission and with
the various states are amortized on a straight-line basis over 60 months from
the date each Fund commenced operations.

2. AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into separate advisory contracts on behalf of the
Funds with WFB. Pursuant to the contracts, WFB has agreed to provide the Funds
with daily portfolio management. Under the contracts, WFB is entitled to be paid
a monthly advisory fee at an annual percentage rate of 0.30% of the average
daily net assets of the National Tax-Free Money Market Fund and 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of the Prime Money Market and Treasury Plus Money
Market Funds. On August 1, 1998, Wells Capital Management Incorporated ("WCM"),
a wholly-owned subsidiary of WFB, began acting as investment sub-advisor to the
