Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to present you with the annual report for PaineWebber Small
Cap Fund (the "Fund") for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2000.
MARKET REVIEW
================================================================================
[GRAPHIC OMITTED]
The first six months of the reporting period saw all the major equity
markets gaining, but none more than the NASDAQ Composite, which, propelled by
technology stocks, gained 49.34%. The second half of the Fund's fiscal year gave
the U.S. equity markets a wilder ride. Investors seemed to change their focus
daily while technology stocks, in particular, rode a roller coaster. Early in
2000, value-oriented, cyclical stocks rewarded investors and NASDAQ continued
its torrid increase before a correction knocked down stock prices in general
through May. Rising interest rates and high stock valuations contributed to the
decline, but performance recovered somewhat in June and July. For the Fund's
fiscal year, the S&P 500 gained 8.97% and the NASDAQ was up 42.77%, despite a
4.4% dip in the second half of the Fund's fiscal year.
During this twelve-month period, small cap stocks as measured by the S&P
600 gained 12.57%, surpassing the large-cap equities of the S&P 500. As measured
by the Russell 2000 Index, small caps gained 13.77% for the period.

PORTFOLIO REVIEW
================================================================================
PORTFOLIO HIGHLIGHTS
For the year ended July 31, 2000, Fund shares slightly lagged the S&P 600
Index but outperformed the Lipper Small Cap Value Funds Median. The Fund's
value-oriented investment style detracted from performance, as investors showed
a preference for growth companies.
We have continued to reduce the Fund's technology sector holdings,
generally due to valuation concerns, and have instead concentrated on adding to
our investments in capital goods, energy and financials. Despite its
underweighting, the Fund benefited from selected technology and healthcare
stocks, including Alpha Industries (sold in January) and Noven Pharmaceuticals
(2.2%).(1) Merger and acquisition activity also contributed to the return, as
Cameron Ashley Building Products, Caere Corp, DII Group and DSP Group received
takeover bids.
In keeping with the goal of repositioning the Fund to profit from market
changes, we purchased such companies as heavy machinery maker Manitowoc (1.8%),
asset manager Affiliated Managers Group (2.3%), diversified manufacturer
Carlisle Companies (1.6%) and Swift Energy (1.1%). During the period we sold
such stocks as Alpha Industries, Viatel, PC Connection, Watsco, Transworld
Entertainment, Texas Industries, DII Group, DSP Group and ShopKo Stores.

OUTLOOK
================================================================================
[GRAPHIC OMITTED]
The stock market's big picture still appears positive. Corporate profit
growth estimates for the second half of 2000 are strong, productivity is good
and inflation appears to be under control. Equity valuations seem high to us,
but we believe the market can achieve returns in keeping with corporate profit
growth.
We expect technology sector earnings to remain strong as overseas demand
for U.S. technology products continues to expand. The growing global economy may
benefit U.S. cyclical and capital goods firms that earn significant revenue from
exports. We believe that the advent of more stable global economies may further
broaden investor interest beyond the perceived safety and liquidity of larger
growth stocks and toward small cap and value stocks.
We plan to continue our focus on undervalued small cap stocks. We continue
to believe that attractively valued stocks exist at both the upper and lower
ends of our capitalization range. The Fund is overweighted in the consumer
cyclical sector, where we are emphasizing selected retailing, homebuilding,
restaurants and business service stocks. We believe positive employment and wage
trends will promote consumer spending, which is likely to benefit these
companies.

Note: The Fund offers Class Y shares to a limited group of investors, including
participants in certain investment programs that are sponsored by PaineWebber
and that may invest in PaineWebber mutual funds. For the year ended July 31,
2000 and since inception, July 26, 1996 through July 31, 2000, Class Y shares
had a total return of 12.20% and 51.87%, respectively. Class Y shares do not
have initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 distribution
and service fees.
The data above represents past performance of the Fund's shares, which is no

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PaineWebber Small Cap Fund (the "Fund") is a diversified series of
PaineWebber Securities Trust ("Trust"), which was organized under Massachusetts
law by a Declaration of Trust dated December 3, 1992 and registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as an open-end management investment company. The Trust currently
offers another series of shares, PaineWebber Strategic Income Fund, whose
financial statements are not included herein.
The Fund currently offers Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y shares.
Each class represents interests in the same assets of the Fund, and the classes
are identical except for differences in their sales charge structures, ongoing
service and distribution charges and certain transfer agency expenses. In
addition, Class B shares and all corresponding dividend reinvested shares
automatically convert to Class A shares approximately six years after initial
issuance. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges, except that Class
A, Class B and Class C shares have exclusive voting rights with respect to their
service and/or distribution plan.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles requires Fund management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a
summary of significant accounting policies:
VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS--The Fund calculates its net asset value based on
the current market value for its portfolio securities. The Fund normally obtains
market values for its securities from independent pricing sources. Independent
pricing sources may use reported last sale prices, current market quotations or
valuations from computerized "matrix" systems that derive values based on
comparable securities. Securities traded in the over-the-counter ("OTC") market
and listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. ("Nasdaq") normally are valued at
the last sale price on Nasdaq prior to valuation. Other OTC securities are
valued at the last bid price available prior to valuation. Securities which are
listed on U.S. and foreign stock exchanges normally are valued at the last sale
price on the day the securities are valued or, lacking any sales on such day, at
the last available bid price. In cases where securities are traded on more than
one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange designated as the
primary market by Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc., the investment
adviser and administrator of the Fund ("Mitchell Hutchins"), a wholly owned
asset management subsidiary of PaineWebber Incorporated ("PaineWebber"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of PaineWebber Group Inc. ("PW Group"). If a market
value is not available from an independent pricing source for a particular
security, that security is valued at fair value as determined in good faith by
or under the direction of the Fund's board of trustees (the "board"). The
amortized cost method of valuation, which approximates market value, generally
is used to value short-term debt instruments with sixty days or less remaining
to maturity, unless the board determines that this does not represent fair
value.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--The Fund's custodian takes possession of the
collateral pledged for investments in repurchase agreements. The underlying
collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to ensure that the value,
including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the
event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to
liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the
obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy
by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the
collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. The Fund occasionally
participates in joint repurchase agreement transactions with other funds managed
by Mitchell Hutchins.
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME--Investment transactions are
recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment
transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Interest income is
recorded on an accrual basis and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date.
13
<PAGE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Income, expenses (excluding class-specific expenses) and
realized/unrealized gains/losses are allocated proportionately to each class of
shares based upon the relative net asset value of outstanding shares (or the
value of dividend-eligible shares, as appropriate) of each class at the
beginning of the day (after adjusting for current capital share activity of the
respective classes). Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the
applicable class of shares.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS--Dividends and distributions to shareholders
are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions
are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may
differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These "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 capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment;
temporary differences do not require reclassification.
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
Small cap companies may be more vulnerable than larger companies to adverse
business or economic developments. Small cap companies may also have limited
product lines, markets or financial resources, and may be dependent on a
relatively small management group. Securities of such companies may be less
liquid and more volatile than securities of larger companies or the market
averages in general and therefore may involve greater risk than investing in
larger companies. In addition, small cap companies may not be well-known to the
investing public, may not have institutional ownership and may have only
cyclical, static or moderate growth prospects.
INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR
The Fund has an Investment Advisory and Administration Contract ("Advisory
Contract") with Mitchell Hutchins under which Mitchell Hutchins serves as
investment adviser and administrator of the Fund. In accordance with the
Advisory Contract the Fund pays Mitchell Hutchins an investment advisory and
administration fee, which is accrued daily and payable monthly, at the annual
rate of 1.00% of the Fund's average daily net assets. At July 31, 2000, the Fund
owed Mitchell Hutchins $58,368 in investment advisory and administration fees.
Mitchell Hutchins waived a portion of its investment advisory and administration
fees in connection with the Fund's investment of cash collateral from security
lending in the Mitchell Hutchins Private Money Market Fund LLC. For the year
ended July 31, 2000, Mitchell Hutchins waived $2,129.
For the year ended July 31, 2000, the Fund paid no brokerage commissions to
PaineWebber.
On July 12, 2000, PW Group and UBS AG ("UBS") announced that they had
entered into an agreement and plan of merger under which PW Group will merge
into a wholly owned subsidiary of UBS. If all required approvals are obtained
and the required conditions are satisfied, PW Group and UBS expect to complete
the transaction in the fourth quarter of 2000. UBS, with headquarters in Zurich,
Switzerland, is an internationally diversified organization with operations in
many areas of the financial services industry.
DISTRIBUTION PLANS
Mitchell Hutchins is the distributor of the Fund's shares and has appointed
PaineWebber as the exclusive dealer for the sale of those shares. Under separate
plans of distribution pertaining to Class A, Class B and Class C shares, the
Fund pays Mitchell Hutchins monthly service fees at an annual rate of 0.25% of
the average daily net assets of Class A, Class B and Class C shares and monthly
distribution fees at the annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of
Class B and Class C shares. At July 31, 2000, the Fund owed Mitchell Hutchins
$30,359 in service and distribution fees.

<PAGE>
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Mitchell Hutchins also receives the proceeds of the initial sales charges
paid by shareholders upon the purchase of Class A shares and the contingent
deferred sales charges paid by the shareholders upon certain redemptions of
Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Mitchell Hutchins has informed the Fund
that for the year ended July 31, 2000, it received $81,685 in sales charges.
SECURITY LENDING
The Fund may lend securities up to 331/3% of its total assets to qualified
institutions. The loans are secured at all times by cash or U.S. government
securities in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities
loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis and
adjusted accordingly. The Fund will retain record ownership of loaned securities
to exercise certain beneficial rights; however, the Fund may bear the risk of
delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should
the borrower fail financially. The Fund receives compensation for lending its
securities from interest earned on the cash or U.S. government securities held
as collateral, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower plus reasonable
administrative and custody fees. For the year ended July 31, 2000, the Fund
earned $45,900 for lending its securities and PaineWebber earned $16,366 as the
Fund's lending agent. At July 31, 2000, the Fund owed PaineWebber $972 in
security lending fees.
At July 31, 2000, the Fund's custodian held cash having an aggregate value
of $5,116,400 as collateral for portfolio securities loaned having a market
value of $4,968,638 which was invested in the following money market funds:

----------
Total investments of cash collateral for
securities loaned (cost--$5,116,400) $5,116,400
==========
BANK LINE OF CREDIT
The Fund may participate with other funds managed by Mitchell Hutchins in a
$200 million committed credit facility ("Facility") to be utilized for temporary
financing until settlement of sales or purchases of portfolio securities, the
repurchase or redemption of shares of the fund at the request of the
shareholders and other temporary or emergency purposes. In connection therewith,
the Fund has agreed to pay a commitment fee, pro rata, based on the relative
asset size of the funds in the Facility. Interest is charged to the fund at
rates based on prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowings. For
the year ended July 31, 2000, the Fund did not borrow under the Facility.
TRANSFER AGENCY RELATED SERVICE FEES
PaineWebber provides certain transfer agency related services to the Fund
pursuant to a delegation of authority from PFPC, Inc., the Fund's transfer
agent, and is compensated for these services by PFPC, Inc., not the Fund. For
the year ended July 31, 2000, PaineWebber received approximately 47% of the
total fees collected by PFPC, Inc.
INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES
For federal income tax purposes, the cost of securities owned at July 31,
2000 was substantially the same as the cost of securities for financial
statement purposes.

portfolio securities, excluding short-term securities, were $59,258,972 and

FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and
to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to
regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income
taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year
substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other
amounts, if any, the Fund intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax.
To reflect reclassifications arising from permanent "book/tax" differences
for the year ended July 31, 2000, the Fund's accumulated net realized gains were
decreased by $22,652, accumulated net investment loss was reduced by $1,121,699
and beneficial interest was decreased by $1,099,047. Permanent book/tax
differences are primarily attributable to net operating losses.
SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

interest authorized. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as

# Effective April 1, 1996, Mitchell Hutchins took over day-to-day management
of the Fund's assets.
@ Calculated using the average monthly shares outstanding for the period.
(1) Total investment return is calculated assuming a $10,000 investment on the
first day of each year reported, reinvestment of all dividends and
distributions, if any, at net asset value on the payable dates, and a sale
at net asset value on the last day of each year reported. The figures do
not include sales charge; results would be lower if sales charges were
included.
(2) During the years ended July 31, 2000 and July 31,1999, Mitchell Hutchins
waived a portion of its advisory and administration fees. The ratios
excluding the waiver would be the same since the fee waiver represents less
than 0.005%.

REPORT OF PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS LLP
INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Shareholders and Trustees of
PaineWebber Small Cap Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, 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 PaineWebber Small Cap Fund (the
"Fund") at July 31, 2000, 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 periods indicated, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States 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 July 31, 2000 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers,
provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
