INVESTMENT UPDATE
Investment Environment
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Loan Market
o The volume of new loan issuance again showed impressive growth, rising to $64
billion in the first half of 1998. The number of primary loan market
participants continues to expand with the market. Mutual funds and other
non-bank institutions continue to gain share in the loan market. The changing
profile of lenders away from foreign and U.S. banks toward non-bank
institutions is a significant trend in corporate finance.
o In June, Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan voiced concerns that lending
standards may loosen due to competitive pressures. While there has been some
anecdotal evidence of credit erosion, overall credit standards remain sound. A
recent study of the loan market indicates that, in sharp contrast to the
1980s, borrowers' cash flows in the 1990s have remained a healthy
2-times-interest, with debt levels significantly below past market peaks. The
Portfolio continues to exercise caution and to use conservative lending
standards.
o The secondary loan market has been characterized by increasing liquidity. $60
billion in loans was traded in the secondary market in 1997, a trend that has
continued in 1998. Better liquidity improves investors' ability to manage risk
in response to changing market conditions or underlying fundamentals.
THE FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PERFORMANCE FOR THE PAST SIX MONTHS
o The Fund distributed $0.331 in income dividends during the six months ended
June 30, 1998. Based on a $9.97 net asset value on June 30, 1998, the Fund had
a distribution rate of 6.78%.(1) The Fund's SEC 30-day yield at June 30 was
6.78%.(2)
o The Fund's distribution rate continued to provide a yield advantage over other
short-term income vehicles. For example, money market mutual funds, 3-month
certificates of deposit, and bank money market accounts offered average rates
of 5.16%, 4.01%, and 3.48%, respectively, as of June 30, 1998.(3)
o The Fund's six-month total return of 3.4%(4) continued to protect
shareholders' purchasing power. By most measures, inflation advanced at an
annualized rate of 1.7% in the first half of 1998.
THE PORTFOLIO'S INVESTMENTS
o Management continued its efforts to increase the Portfolio's diversification,
bringing the number of industries represented in the Portfolio to 59. In
addition, the average loan size in the Portfolio decreased to 0.5% of the
Portfolio's net assets, or $19.8 million. With no single holding over 2%, the
Portfolio remains highly diversified.
o Cable television represented the Portfolio's largest sector weighting at June
30. The sector received a boost with the purchase of Marcus Cable, Inc. by
Paul Allen, a co-founder of Microsoft, and the planned purchase of
Telecommunications, Inc. by AT&T. The Portfolio held positions in loans of
Marcus, TCI/Pacific and Intermedia, Inc.
o In the industrial/cyclical area, the Portfolio preferred low-cost providers
that are well-positioned in the event of an economic downturn. For example, as
a result of their recently announced merger, container-oard makers Stone
Container and Jefferson Smurfit are likely to increase market share while
achieving economies of scale through lower production costs.
o The Portfolio also had broad exposure to consumer-related areas. For example,
Furniture Brands International, Inc. is the nation's largest furniture maker.
The company has benefited from lower interest rates and a strong housing
market.
o In his June statement, Fed chairman Greenspan also indicated concern over the
impact of the Asian crisis as well as deteriorating loans to real estate
investment trusts (REITs). The Portfolio had no direct exposure to Asia. While
we did lend to U.S. companies doing business in Asia, the Portfolio did not
experience any significant credit vulnerability. Meanwhile, the Portfolio had
a modest 2.4% exposure to the REIT sector in loans of sound credit quality.
Mutual fund shares are not insured by the FDIC and are not deposits or other
obligations of, or guaranteed by, any depository institution. Shares are subject
to investment risks, including possible loss of principal invested.

(1) The Fund's distribution rate represents actual distributions paid to
shareholders and is calculated daily by dividing the last distribution per share
(annualized) by the offering price. (2) The Fund's SEC yield is calculated by
dividing the net investment income per share for the 30-day period by the
offering price at the end of the period and annualizing the result. (3) The Fund
is not insured by the FDIC, nor does it offer a fixed rate of return like bank
certificates of deposit and bank money market funds, and does not attempt to
maintain a constant $1.00 net asset value per share, as do money market funds.
(4) Return does not reflect applicable early withdrawal charge (EWC). (5)
Returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change
in net asset value with all distributions reinvested. SEC average annual returns
reflect 1% EWC within the first year. (6) Sector weightings are subject to
change due to active management. Five largest sector weightings account for
28.0% of the Portfolio's investments, determined by dividing the total market
value of the holdings by the total net assets of the Portfolio.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and
principal value fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or
less than their original cost.

EV CLASSIC SENIOR FLOATING-RATE FUND as of June 30, 1998
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EV Classic Senior Floating-Rate Fund (the Fund) was formed under a
Declaration of Trust dated August 5, 1993, amended and restated December 7,
1994. The Fund is an entity of the type commonly known as a Massachusetts
business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended, as a non-diversified closed-end management investment company.
The Fund invests all of its investable assets in interests in the Senior
Debt Portfolio (the Portfolio), a New York Trust, having the same investment
objective as the Fund. The value of the Fund's investment in the Portfolio
reflects the Fund's proportionate interest in the net assets of the
Portfolio (50.1% at June 30, 1998). The performance of the Fund is directly
affected by the performance of the Portfolio. The financial statements of
the Portfolio, including the portfolio of investments, are included
elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund's
financial statements. The following is a summary of significant accounting
policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its
financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
A INVESTMENT VALUATION -- Valuation of securities by the Portfolio is
discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which
are included elsewhere in this report.
B INCOME -- The Fund's net investment income consists of the Fund's pro rata
share of the net investment income of the Portfolio, less all actual and
accrued expenses of the Fund determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.
C FEDERAL TAXES -- The Fund's policy is to comply with the provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute to shareholders each year all of its taxable income, including
any net realized gain on investments. Accordingly, no provision for federal
income or excise tax is necessary. At December 31, 1997, the Fund, for
federal income tax purposes had a capital loss carryover of $3,116,895 which
will expire on December 31, 2004 ($588,207) and December 31, 2005
($2,528,688). These amounts will reduce taxable income arising from future
net realized gain on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the
Internal Revenue Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the distributions
to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of
any liability for federal income or excise tax.
D DEFERRED ORGANIZATION EXPENSES -- Costs incurred by the Fund in connection
with its organization, including registration costs, are being amortized on
the straight-line basis over five years.
E EXPENSE REDUCTION -- Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) serves as
custodian of the Fund and the Portfolio. Pursuant to the respective
custodian agreements, IBT receives a fee reduced by credits which are
determined based on the average daily cash balances the Fund or the
Portfolio maintain with IBT. All significant credit balances used to reduce
the Fund's custodian fee are reflected as a reduction of operating expenses
on the statement of operations.
F USE OF ESTIMATES -- 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of income and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
G INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION -- The interim financial statements relating
to June 30, 1998 and the six month period then ended have not been audited
by independent certified public accountants, but in the opinion of the
Fund's management reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial
statements.
2 DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The net investment income of the Fund is determined daily, and substantially
all of the net investment income so determined is declared daily as a
dividend to shareholders of record at the time of declaration. Such daily
dividends will be paid monthly. Distributions of realized capital gains, if
any, are made at least annually. Shareholders may reinvest capital gain
distributions in additional shares of the Fund at the net asset value as of
the ex-dividend date. Distributions are paid in the form of additional
shares or, at the election of the shareholder, in cash. The Fund
distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting
basis. Generally accepted accounting principles require that only
distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the
financial statements as a return of capital. Differences in the recognition
or classification of income between the financial statements and tax
earnings and profits which result in over-distributions for financial
statement purposes only are classified as distributions in excess of net
investment income or accumulated net realized gains. Permanent differences
between book and tax accounting relating to distributions are reclassified
to paid-in capital.
3 SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number
of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value).
The Fund operates as an interval fund, meaning that it continuously accepts
new shareholder investments but permits share repurchases at net asset value
only once a quarter. The price will be established at the close of business
on the last day the repurchase offer is open. An early withdrawal charge
will be imposed on most shares accepted for repurchase which have been held
less than one year (See Note 6). The Trustees approved repurchase offers for
the period from March 2, 1998 to March 23, 1998 and from June 1, 1998 to
June 22, 1998. Transactions in Fund shares were as follows:

Net increase 46,815,485 65,600,665
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An administration fee is paid to Eaton Vance Management (EVM) as
compensation for administrative services necessary to conduct the Fund's
business. The fee is computed monthly in the amount of 1/48 of 1%
(equivalent to 0.25% annually) of the average daily gross assets of the
Portfolio attributable to the Fund. For the six months ended June 30, 1998,
the fee amounted to $2,789,761. The Portfolio has engaged Boston Management
and Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory
services (See Note 2 of the Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which
are included elsewhere in this report.) Except as to Trustees of the Fund
and the Portfolio who are not members of EVM's or BMR's organization,
officers and Trustees receive remuneration for their services to the Fund
out of the such investment adviser fee. Certain of the officers and Trustees
of the Fund and Portfolio are officers and/or directors/trustees of the
above organizations.
5 SERVICE PLAN
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Fund has adopted a service plan (the Plan) designed to meet the
requirements of the sales charge rule of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. as if such rule were applicable. The Service Plan
provides that the Fund may make service fee payments to the Principal
Underwriter, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), a subsidiary of EVM,
Authorized Firms or other persons in amounts not exceeding 0.25% of the
Fund's average daily net assets for any fiscal year. The Trustees have
initially implemented the Plan by authorizing the Fund to make quarterly
service fee payments to the Principal Underwriter and Authorized Firms in
amounts not exceeding 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets for each
fiscal year. The Fund paid or accrued service fees to or payable to EVD for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 in the amount of $1,661,616. Service fee
payments are made for personal services and/or the maintenance of
shareholder accounts.
Certain of the officers and Trustees of the Fund are officers or directors
of EVD.
6 EARLY WITHDRAWAL CHARGE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EVD serves as the Fund's principal underwriter. EVD compensates authorized
firms at a rate of 0.75% of the purchase price of shares purchased through
such firms consisting of 0.60% of sales commissions and 0.15% service fee
(for the first year's service). EVD also pays additional compensation to
each firm equal to 0.60% per annum of the value of Fund shares sold by such
firm that are outstanding for more than one year. A 1% early withdrawal
charge to recover distribution costs will be charged to redeeming
shareholders and paid to EVD in connection with most shares held for less
than one year which are redeemed. The early withdrawal charge will be
imposed on those shares redeemed, the value of which exceeds the aggregate
value at the time the redemption is accepted of (a) all shares in the
account purchased more than one year prior to such acceptance, (b) all
shares in the account acquired through reinvestment of distributions, and
(c) the increase, if any, in value of all other shares in the account
(namely those purchased within the one year preceding the acceptance) over
the purchase price of such shares. In determining whether an early
withdrawal charge is payable, it is assumed that the redemption would be
made from the earliest purchase of shares. The total early withdrawal
charges received by EVD for the six months ended June 30, 1998 amounted to
approximately $602,400.
7 INVESTMENT TRANSACTION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Increases and decreases in the Fund's investment in the Portfolio for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 aggregate $724,198,250 and $344,669,909,
respectively.

Senior Debt Portfolio as of June 30, 1998
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Expressed in United States Dollars)
1 Significant Accounting Policies
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Senior Debt Portfolio (the Portfolio) is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as a non-diversified closed-end investment company which
was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York on May 1,
1992. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in
the Portfolio. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
of the Portfolio. The Policies are in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
A Investment Valuation -- The Portfolio's investments in interests in loans
(Loan Interests) are valued at fair value by the Portfolio's investment
adviser, Boston Management and Research, under procedures established by the
Trustees as permitted by Section 2(a)(41) of the Investment Company Act of
1940. Such procedures include the consideration of relevant factors, data
and information relating to fair value, including (i) the characteristics of
and fundamental analytical data relating to the Loan Interest, including the
cost, size, current interest rate, period until next interest rate reset,
maturity and base lending rate of the Loan Interest, the terms and
conditions of the loan and any related agreements and the position of the
loan in the borrower's debt structure; (ii) the nature, adequacy and value
of the collateral, including the Portfolio's rights, remedies and interests
with respect to the collateral; (iii) the creditworthiness of the borrower,
based on evaluations of its financial condition, financial statements and
information about the borrower's business, cash flows, capital structure and
future prospects; (iv) information relating to the market for the Loan
Interest including price quotations for and trading in the Loan Interest and
interests in similar loans and the market environment and investor attitudes
towards the Loan Interest and interests in similar loans; (v) the reputation
and financial condition of the agent bank and any intermediate participant
in the loan; and (vi) general economic and market conditions affecting the
fair value of the Loan Interest. Other portfolio securities (other than
short-term obligations, but including listed issues) may be valued on the
basis of prices furnished by one or more pricing services which determine
prices for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using
market information, transactions for comparable securities and various
relationships between securities which are generally recognized by
institutional traders. In certain circumstances, portfolio securities will
be valued at the last sales price on the exchange that is the primary market
for such securities, or the last quoted bid price for those securities for
which the over-the-counter market is the primary market or for listed
securities in which there were no sales during the day. The value of
interest rate swaps will be determined in accordance with a discounted
present value formula and then confirmed by obtaining a bank quotation.
Short-term obligations which mature in sixty days or less are valued at
amortized cost, if their original term to maturity when acquired by the
Portfolio was 60 days or less or are valued at amortized cost using their
value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if their original term to maturity
when acquired by the Portfolio was more then 60 days, unless in each case
this is determined not to represent fair value. Repurchase agreements are
valued at cost plus accrued interest. Other portfolio securities for which
there are no quotations or valuations are valued at fair value as determined
in good faith by or on behalf of the Trustees.
B Income -- Interest income from Loan Interests is recorded on the accrual
basis at the then-current interest rate, while all other interest income is
determined on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of
premium or discount when required for federal income tax purposes. Facility
fees received are recognized as income over the expected term of the loan.
C Income Taxes -- The Portfolio is treated as a partnership for federal tax
purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes
on any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the
Portfolio is ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes. Since some
of the Portfolio's investors are regulated investment companies that invest
all or substantially all of their assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio
normally must satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification
requirements (under the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to
satisfy them. The Portfolio will allocate at least annually among its
investors each investor's distributive share of the Portfolio's net
investment income, net realized capital gains, and any other items of
income, gain, loss, deduction or credit.
D Deferred Organization Expenses -- Costs incurred by the Portfolio in
connection with its organization are being amortized on the straight-line
basis over five years.
E Other -- Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
F Expense Reduction -- Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) serves as
custodian of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, IBT
receives a fee reduced by the credits which are determined based on the
average daily cash balances the Portfolio maintains with IBT. All
significant credit balances used to reduce the Portfolio's custodian fees
are reported as a reduction of expenses on the Statement of Operations.
G Use of Estimates -- The preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2 Investment Adviser Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The investment advisory fee is paid to Boston Management and Research (BMR)
as compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio.
The fee is computed at a monthly rate of 19/240 of 1% (0.95% annually) of
the Portfolio's average daily gross assets up to and including $1 billion
and at reduced rates as daily gross assets exceed that level. For the six
months ended June 30, 1998, the effective annual rate, based on average
daily gross assets, was 0.88% (annualized) and amounted to $19,690,774.
Except as to Trustees of the Portfolio who are not members of BMR's
organization, officers and Trustees receive remuneration for their services
to the Portfolio out of such investment adviser fee.
Certain of the officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers and
directors/trustees of BMR. Trustees of the Portfolio that are not affiliated
with the Investment Adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a
percentage of their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees
Deferred Compensation Plan. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, no
significant amounts have been deferred.
3 Investments
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Portfolio invests primarily in Loan Interests. The ability of the
issuers of the Loan Interests to meet their obligations may be affected by
economic developments in a specific industry. The cost of purchases and the
proceeds from principal repayments and sales of Loan Interests for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 aggregated $2,684,917,769 and $1,608,901,171,
respectively.
4 Short-Term Debt and Credit Agreements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Portfolio has entered into a revolving credit agreement that will allow
the Portfolio to borrow an additional $400 million to support the issuance
of commercial paper and to permit the Portfolio to invest in accordance with
its investment practices. Interest is charged under the revolving credit
agreement at the bank's base rate or at an amount above either the bank's
adjusted certificate of deposit rate or federal funds effective rate.
Interest expense includes a commitment fee of approximately $96,438 which is
computed at the annual rate of .08% of the revolving credit agreement.
Interest expense also includes $97,270, which represents a commitment fee
for a previous revolving credit agreement. There were no significant
borrowings under this agreement during the six months ended June 30, 1998.
As of June 30, 1998, the Portfolio had no commercial paper outstanding.
5 Federal Income Tax Basis of Investment Securities
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The cost and unrealized appreciation/depreciation in the value of the
investments owned at June 30, 1998, as computed on a federal income tax
basis, were as follows:
Aggregate cost $4,733,105,718
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gross unrealized appreciation $ 2,675,850
Gross unrealized depreciation (814,024)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation $ 1,861,826

Senior Debt Portfolio as of June 30, 1998
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Trustees and Investors
of Senior Debt Portfolio
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the portfolio of investments, of Senior Debt Portfolio (the
Portfolio) as of June 30, 1998, the related statements of operations and cash
flows for the six months then ended, the statements of changes in net assets
for the six months then ended and the year ended December 31, 1997 and the
supplementary data for the six months ended June 30, 1998, each of the two
years ended December 31, 1997 and the period from the start of business,
February 22, 1995, to December 31, 1995 (all expressed in United States
dollars). These financial statements and supplementary data are the
responsibility of the Portfolio's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and supplementary data based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities and Loan Interests owned at June 30, 1998 by
correspondence with the custodian and selling or agent banks; where replies
were not received from selling or agent banks, we performed other auditing
procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Senior Debt
Portfolio as of June 30, 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows, the changes in net assets and its supplementary data for the respective
stated periods in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 1A, the financial statements include Loan Interests and
certain other securities held by the Portfolio valued at $4,732,291,694
(97.71% of net assets of the Portfolio), which values are fair values
determined by the Portfolio's investment adviser in the absence of actual
market values. Determination of fair value involves subjective judgment, as
the actual market value of a particular Loan Interest or security can be
established only by negotiations between the parties in a sale transaction. We
have reviewed the procedures established by the Trustees and used by the
Portfolio's investment adviser in determining the fair values of such Loan
Interests and securities and have inspected underlying documentation, and in
the circumstances, we believe that the procedures are reasonable and the
documentation appropriate.
