Equity Income Portfolio

Dear Shareholder:
 
We are pleased to provide you with the annual report and audited financial
statements for Smith Barney Funds, Inc. - Equity Income Portfolio. Last year,
the U.S. stock market produced a total return of 36.94% for the 12 months ended
on December 31, 1995, based on the widely followed Standard & Poor's 500 Index,
an unmanaged capitalization-weighted measure of 500 widely held common stocks.
This is the largest single-year gain since 1958. The popular Dow Jones
Industrial Average (DJIA), which is a price-weighted average of 30 actively
traded blue chip stocks, saw two major milestones reached, and passed, as the
DJIA rose through 4000 and then 5000, ending the year at 5117. The Equity Income
Portfolio participated in these strong returns, with Class A shares generating
an annual total return of 33.05%. A more detailed summary of performance and
current holdings can be found in the appropriate sections that follow in the
annual report.

Last year, the Portfolio's name was changed from the Income and Growth Portfolio
to the Equity Income Portfolio. While the Portfolio's investment strategy was
not changed, the Portfolio's Board of Directors recommended this change as more
representative of the Portfolio's investment strategy. An interview with
Portfolio Manager Ayako Weissman follows this annual letter.

Portfolio Strategy

At the end of 1994, there was a broad consensus, based on fourth quarter
economic indicators, that the U.S. economy was growing too quickly. In response,
the Federal Reserve Board was tightening monetary policy by increasing short-
term interest rates. This increased our concerns that the economy and higher
interest rates would have a negative effect on the markets. Therefore, at the
beginning of 1995, we maintained a cautious position by keeping over 12% of the
Portfolio's assets in cash.

In retrospect, our fears about the economy growing too fast proved to be
unfounded. The economy declined in the first quarter of 1995 and the Federal
Reserve stopped tightening monetary policy. It appeared that the Federal Reserve
had engineered the long-heralded, but seldom achieved, soft landing. Our outlook
for the stock market changed from cautious to very positive. We resumed looking
for companies that were likely to restructure, continuing a key theme for the
Portfolio that began in 1994. The Portfolio's top-ten holdings at the end of
1995 were all related in some way to this restructuring theme. Among the
Portfolio's top holdings were Sears Roebuck & Co., Eastman Kodak Co., and Xerox,
all of which have undergone major restructuring in recent years.

                                                                               1

In 1995, we also increased the Portfolio's exposure to the insurance industry.
At the end of 1994, attention on this sector was focused on concerns regarding
the potentially enormous environmental liability of many insurance companies,
resulting in massive claims to clean up hazardous waste sites. Initial estimates
in 1994 placed the potential liability in the range of $250 billion over a 30-
year period, which put a damper on many insurance stocks. However, the initial
estimate was cut in half as insurers had an opportunity to realistically assess
their potential liabilities during 1995. Further enhancing the attractiveness of
the insurance sector was the purchase of Continental Corporation, which had one
of the industries largest potential environmental liabilities, by Chicago-based
CNA for $1.1 billion. CNA, a part of Loews Corp, is widely regarded as a well-
managed company and this type of consolidation was seen as positive for the
entire insurance industry.

Two stocks in the insurance sector that we added to the Portfolio in 1995 were
Aetna and Allstate. The introduction of a new management team at Aetna was our
signal to take another and closer look at that company. What we found was a
classic value investment opportunity -- a stock that was worth owning because
the market had overlooked its inherent value. Allstate was also undervalued due
to recent setbacks from natural disasters such as Hurricane Andrew.

In the first half of the year, we reduced or eliminated our holdings in cyclical
companies such as Dow Chemical and International Paper, even though investor
enthusiasm was high for these types of stocks while commodity prices were going
up. We sold these holdings primarily because of the slowdown in the U.S.
economy, the high level of interest rates and slower rates of growth in the
international economy, factors that negatively affect cyclical companies.

OUTLOOK FOR 1996 

Last year provided such high returns that few market observers expect a repeat
of this banner performance. However, we believe that current market conditions
are generally positive for stock prices. Inflation continues to be low and the
Federal Reserve continues to ease monetary policy. For investors, this
translates into lower rates on short-term fixed income investments such as FDIC-
insured, fixed-rate Certificates of Deposit (CDs) and money market funds. We
believe that investors faced with relatively low returns will continue to direct
money into the stock market in the hopes of achieving higher returns. On the
negative side, as the U.S. economy slows down, so will corporate profits, which
may have a negative effect on stock prices.

In 1996, we believe careful selection of stocks will be more important than in
1995. One investment strategy that the Portfolio will continue to pursue is
companies that are restructuring candidates, especially those located in Europe.
We believe that some of the most attractive investments will be found in this 
area.

We thank you for your investment in the Smith Barney Funds, Inc. - Equity Income
Portfolio and appreciate your continued support.

Sincerely,

/s/ Heath McLendon                      /s/ Ayako Weissman

January 15, 1996


On December 11, 1995, Smith Barney Funds, Inc./Income and
Growth Portfolio got...
- --   A New Name (Smith Barney Funds, Inc./Equity Income Portfolio)
- --   New Symbols (EQINA for Class A shares and EQINC for Class C shares in most
     major newspapers)
     However, the Equity Income Portfolio will continue to be managed
     conservatively with a bottom-up value approach that has, over time, 
     delivered consistent results with low risk.

                                                                               3

An Interview with Ayako Weissman

Ayako Weissman is a Managing Director of Smith Barney and Senior Equity
Portfolio Manager. She joined Smith Barney Capital Management Division in 1987
and has been associated with the Equity Income Portfolio since that time. Ms.
Weissman assumed day-to-day responsibility for the Portfolio in 1994, and works
closely with Smith Barney Capital Management Chairman and CEO Bruce Sargent, who
continues to take an active role in the management of the Portfolio. Ms.
Weissman currently manages approximately $1.1 billion of equity assets in mutual
funds and institutional accounts. She received her B.A. in Liberal Arts from the
International Christian University in Tokyo, Japan and her M.B.A. from IMEDE in
Lausanne, Switzerland.

Q.  Why was the Income and Growth Portfolio's name recently changed?

A.  We believe that although the Portfolio's investment style has not changed,
    the growth and income category has become very broad in terms of the
    investment objectives and policies of funds covered under the category since
    the Portfolio began in the late 1960s. We think the equity income
    classification is more representative of the Portfolio's objectives and will
    provide a better benchmark going forward.

Q.  Can you elaborate further?

A.  I would be happy to. When the Smith Barney Funds, Inc. - Income and Growth
    Portfolio was created in the late 1960s, there were approximately 350 mutual
    funds. These funds were classified among a few broad investment categories.
    Equity mutual funds, for example, were largely defined as either growth
    funds or growth and income funds. With a relatively small group of funds to
    evaluate, investors then were able to make choices based on simple
    investment objectives.

    In the twenty-seven years since the Income and Growth Portfolio was created,
    the number of mutual funds has grown to approximately 7,000. During this
    time, mutual funds have become increasingly popular with investors and in
    response the mutual fund industry has greatly expanded its product line to
    provide them with a broader range of choices. Investors can now choose
    between over twenty-one different types of mutual funds. In fact, these
    categories are only the general classifications used to define a fund's
    objective. Many investment subcategories also exist.

    The Equity Income Portfolio has maintained a consistent investment strategy
    since its inception. The Portfolio seeks to provide shareholders with
    current income and long-term growth of income and capital by investing
    primarily in common stocks. In the relatively simple investment world of
    1968, this meant the Portfolio was classified as a growth and income fund.
    Even at that time,

4
<PAGE>
 
    the name was Income and Growth to emphasize the importance of the
    Portfolio's income objectives. In 1996, this means the Portfolio should be
    classified as an equity income fund.

Q.  You mentioned the Equity Income Portfolio's investment strategy. Can you
    tell us more about it?

A.  We are value investors who pursue these objectives primarily by investing in
    the dividend-paying common stocks of large-capitalization companies that
    tend to be familiar household names such as Sears, Chevron and General
    Electric. In selecting stocks for the Portfolio, we seek to employ a
    conservative, highly disciplined and bottom-up approach to investing. This
    means that the individual stock selection is more influential to the overall
    performance of the Portfolio rather than the present state of the economy.
    The Portfolio's conservative strategy is designed to seek high returns while
    managing risk.

Q.  How do you select stocks for the Portfolio?

A.  As value investors, our primary goal is to identify out-of-favor companies
    that are either at their lowest point in the business cycle or that have
    been poorly managed in the past but who, in our view, are about to turn the
    corner because of a new management team or a promising product introduction.
    Because the Portfolio seeks to manage risk, we focus our search on out-of-
    favor blue-chip companies.

    Our approach also involves visiting hundreds of companies each year and
    meeting regularly with their managements to understand a company's business
    and industry, identify outstanding managements and target promising long-
    term investment opportunities.

Q.  What is the role of dividend-p aying stocks in the Equity Income Portfolio?

A.  Dividend-paying stocks are an important aspect of our investment strategy.
    Every stock we own must provide at least the same or a higher dividend than
    the average of the S&P 500. If you look at the historical performance record
    of the market since World War II, dividend yield and dividend-reinvested
    returns make up approximately 47% of the market's overall total return.
    Dividend-paying stocks can help smooth out short-term market volatility and
    should provide our shareholders with consistent and competitive long-term
    returns.

                                                                               5

(1)  Assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if
     any, at net asset value and does not reflect a deduction of the applicable
     sales charge with respect to Class A shares or the contingent deferred
     sales charges ("CDSC") with respect to Class B and C shares.

(2)  Assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if
     any, at net asset value. In addition, Class A shares reflect the deduction
     of the maximum initial sales charge of 5.00% and Class B shares reflect the
     deduction of a 5.00% CDSC, which applies if shares are redeemed less than
     one year from initial purchase and declines thereafter by 1.00% per year
     until no CDSC is incurred. Class C shares reflect the deduction of a 1.00%
     CDSC, which applies if shares are redeemed within the first year of
     purchase.

*    Inception dates for Class A, B, C and Z shares are January 1, 1972,
     November 7, 1994, December 2, 1992 and November 7, 1994, respectively.

+ Hypothetical illustration of $10,000 invested in Class A shares on December
  31, 1985, assuming deduction of the maximum 5.75% sales charge in effect at
  the time of investment and reinvestment of dividends (after deduction of
  applicable sales charge through 1990, and thereafter at net asset value) and
  capital gains, if any, at net asset value through December 31, 1995. The
  Standard & Poor's 500 is an index of widely held common stocks listed on the
  New York and American Stock Exchanges and the over-the-counter markets.
  Figures for the index include reinvestment of dividends. The index is
  unmanaged and is not subject to the same management and trading expenses of a
  mutual fund. The performance of the Portfolio's other classes may be greater
  or less than the Class A shares' performance indicated on this chart,
  depending on whether greater or lesser sales charges and fees were incurred by
  shareholders investing in the other classes.

  All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future
  results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, and redemption
  value may be more or less than the original cost. No adjustment has been made
  for shareholder tax liability on dividends or capital gains.

Smith Barney Funds, Inc.
Equity Income Portfolio
Notes to Financial Statements

1.  Significant Accounting Policies

  The Equity Income Portfolio ("Portfolio"), formerly known as "Income and
Growth Portfolio", is a separate investment portfolio of the Smith Barney Funds,
Inc. ("Fund"). The Fund, a Maryland corporation, is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end
management investment company and consists of this Portfolio and three other
separate investment portfolios: U.S. Government Securities, Income Return
Account, and Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities Portfolios. The financial
statements and financial highlights for the other portfolios are presented in
separate annual reports.

  The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio
are: (a) securities transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) securities
traded on national securities markets are valued at the closing prices on such
markets; securities for which no sales price was reported and U.S. Government
and Agency Obligations are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices;
(c) short-term investments that have a maturity of more than 60 days are valued
at prices based on market quotations for securities of similar type, yield and
maturity; short-term investments and securities maturing within 60 days or less
are valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which
approximates market value; (d) dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis; (e) gains or losses
on the sale of securities are calculated by using the specific identification
method; (f) direct expenses are charged to each portfolio and each class;
management fees and general portfolio expenses are allocated on the basis of
relative net assets; (g) the accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars.
All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into
U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such currencies against U.S.
dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, and income
and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange quoted on the respective
date that such transactions are recorded. Differences between income and expense
amounts recorded and collected or paid are adjusted when reported by the
custodian bank; (h) the Portfolio intends to comply with the applicable
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pertaining to
regulated investment companies to make distributions of taxable income
sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal

16

income and excise taxes; (i) the character of income and gains to be 
distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which 
may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. At December 31, 1995,
reclassifications were made to the Portfolio's capital accounts to reflect
permanent book/tax differences and income and gains available for distributions
under income tax regulations. Net investment income, net realized gains and net
assets were not affected by this change; and (j) estimates and assumptions are
required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets
resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the
economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in
determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ from these
amounts.

2.  Management Agreement
    and Transactions with Affiliated Persons

   Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"), a subsidiary of Smith
Barney Holdings Inc. ("SBH"), acts as investment manager of the Fund. The Equity
Income Portfolio pays SBMFM a management fee calculated at an annual rate of
0.60% on the Portfolio's average daily net assets up to $500 million, 0.55% on
the next $500 million and 0.50% on average daily net assets in excess of $1.0
billion. These fees are calculated daily and paid monthly.

   Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"), another subsidiary of SBH, acts as distributor of
Fund shares and primary broker for its portfolio agency transactions. For the 
year ended December 31, 1995, SB received brokerage commissions of $312,572 and
sales charges of approximately $47,000 on sales of the Portfolio's Class A 
shares.

   There is a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 5.00% on Class B 
shares, which applies if redemption occurs less than one year from initial 
purchase and declines thereafter by 1.00% per year until no CDSC is
incurred. Class C shares have a 1.00% CDSC, which applies if redemption occurs
within the first year of purchase. For the year ended December 31, 1995, CDSCs
of approximately $1,000 were paid to SB.

   Pursuant to a Distribution Plan the Portfolio pays a service fee with 
respect to its Class A, B and C shares calculated at the annual rate of 0.25% 
of the average daily net assets for each class, respectively. In addition, the
Portfolio also pays a distribution fee with respect to Class B 

                                                                              17

net assets for each class, respectively.  For the year ended December 31, 1995, 
total Distribution Plan fees were as follows:

                                      Class A       Class B     Class C
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Distribution Plan Fees               $1,442,402     $23,501    $275,007
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      All officers and three Directors of the Fund are employees of SB.

      3.  Investments

short-term securities) were as follows:

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Purchases                                                     $331,687,737
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sales                                                          380,497,378

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation                                   $174,298,184
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      4.  Repurchase Agreements

      The Portfolio purchases (and its custodian take possession of) U.S. 
Government Securities from banks and securities dealers subject to agreements 
to resell the securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the next 
business day) at an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Portfolio requires
continual maintenance of the market value of the collateral in amounts at least
equal to the repurchase price.

      5.  Capital Shares

      At December 31, 1995, the Fund had two billion shares of capital stock
authorized with a par value of $0.01 per share. The Portfolio has the ability
to issue multiple classes of shares. Each share of a class represents an 
identical interest in the Portfolio and has the same rights, except that each
class bears certain expenses specifically related to the distribution of its 
shares. Effective November 7, 1994, the Fund adopted

Income Return Account and Short-Term
U.S. Treasury Securities Portfolios

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to provide you with the annual report for Smith Barney Funds,
Inc.--Income Return Account Portfolio and Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities
Portfolio for the year ended December 31, 1995. For your convenience, we have
briefly summarized this period's prevailing economic and market conditions
below. A more detailed summary of performance and current holdings can be found
in the appropriate sections that follow in the annual report.

1995: The Year In Review

When 1995 began, the Federal Reserve had already raised interest rates six times
in 1994. The year started with signs that the U.S. economy, as measured by gross
domestic product (GDP), would continue its recovery. In fact, various economic
indicators showed strength and it appeared that the U.S. economy was growing at
an annual rate of roughly 5.0%. This rapid economic growth, combined with strong
employment, was seen by the Federal Reserve as a sign of a possible increase in
the rate of inflation. In an effort to head off any such increase, the Federal
Reserve raised the federal funds rate from 5.50% to 6.00% in early 1995,
effectively slowing economic growth.

As early as March, automobile manufacturers, for example, began reporting
sluggish demand and responded with production cuts. This contributed to slower
economic growth and the Federal Reserve Board's concerns were allayed. The
Federal Reserve eased monetary policy on July 6, 1995 by lowering the federal
funds rate from 6.00% to 5.75%. Following its July meeting, the Federal Reserve
held firm and did not lower short-term interest rates until its final meeting of
the year. Citing subdued inflation, the Federal Reserve lowered the federal
funds rate another 25 basis points to 5.50% in December.

Income Return Account Portfolio Performance

The Income Return Account Portfolio seeks high current income from a portfolio
of high-quality debt obligations and employs an immunization strategy to
minimize the risk of loss of account value. For the year ended December 31,
1995, the annual total return of the Portfolio's Class A shares was 8.43%, which
compares favorably to the 8.09% total return from its benchmark, the Salomon
Brothers 1-Year Treasury Index.

Portfolio Strategy

enhanced return. While intermediate-term securities are normally defined as
issues maturing within ten years, the Income Return Account Portfolio limits the
maturities of the securities it holds to five years. For defensive purposes, the
Portfolio also employs an immunization strategy. (The Portfolio's immunizations
strategy involves the use of proprietary technology that helps the portfolio
manager forecast the direction of interest rates.) While minor day-to-day price
fluctuations are unavoidable, this strategy should produce sufficient income
during adverse market conditions to offset any potential decline in prices of
the Portfolio's intermediate-term issues. In extremely uncertain or volatile
periods for interest rates, it's possible for the Portfolio to be fully invested
in short-term money market instruments. Unlike money market funds, which
generally seek to maintain a stable net asset value (NAV) of $1.00 per share,
the Income Return Account Portfolio's NAV does fluctuate with market conditions;
however, the immunization strategy has worked well. In the 43 quarters since the
Portfolio's inception, it has only posted one down quarter--the first quarter
of 1992, when the Portfolio posted a negative total return of--0.13%.

Because the Portfolio invests in short- and intermediate-term fixed income
issues, it has the flexibility to take advantage of changing opportunities. And
because the securities in the Portfolio are "laddered" to mature at different
times, we were able to adapt to the changing interest rate environment during
1995. A laddered portfolio is one with bonds that have varying maturities. By
purchasing bonds that mature at set intervals, the Portfolio is diversified in
case of changes in interest rates.

At the beginning of the year, the Portfolio's average-weighted maturity was
approximately one year. At the end of July 1995 however, we had extended the
maturity to 1.02 years. We shortened the Portfolio's average weighted maturity
to 0.82 years in September, increased it slightly at the end of October to 0.93
years and ended 1995 with an average-weighted maturity of 0.90 years.

Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities
Portfolio Performance and Strategy

For the year ended December 31, 1995, Class A shares of Smith Barney Funds, Inc.
- --Short Term U.S. Treasury Securities Portfolio posted a total return of 13.16%,
in line with the total return of 13.36% for the Salomon Brothers 3-Year Treasury
Index for the same time period. At year end, the Portfolio's average-weighted
maturity was 3.14 years.

The Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities Portfolio is also managed with a
laddered portfolio strategy to protect against interest-rate risk. Currently,
the Portfolio is employing this laddered approach to take advantage of any
future monetary easing by the Federal Reserve and to benefit from any further
declines in longer maturity bonds.

Market Outlook

There are both positive and negative factors to consider as we enter 1996. On
the negative side, the stalled budget negotiations in Washington, D.C., a
potential debt default by the U.S. government and the situation in Bosnia are,
in our view, developing situations that investors should watch closely.

While there are always negative factors that may adversely affect the market,
our outlook for the next six months is positive because of strong economic
fundamentals such as moderate economic growth with low inflation and the rise of
fiscal conservatism and the likelihood of an eventual budget compromise in
Washington, D.C. In addition, the strengthening U.S. dollar, declining interest
rates and changing demographics such as the aging of America that should act to
spur more savings and investing are also positive factors worth noting.

In closing, we would like to thank you for your investment in Smith Barney
Funds, Inc. --Income Return Account Portfolio and Short-Term U.S. Treasury
Securities Portfolio.

Sincerely,

   return until its maturity. The index is unmanaged and is not subject to the
   same management and trading expenses of a mutual fund. The performance of the
   Portfolio's other classes may be greater or less than the Class A shares'
   performance indicated on this chart, depending on whether greater or lesser
   sales charges and fees were incurred by shareholders investing in the other
   classes.

   All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future
   results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate and redemption
   values may be more or less than the original cost. No adjustment has been
   made for shareholder tax liability on dividends or capital gains.

+ Hypothetical illustration of $10,000 invested in shares at inception on
  November 11, 1991, assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if
  any, at net asset value through December 31, 1995. The Salomon Brothers 3-Year
  Treasury Index is composed of the most recently issued 3-year United States
  Treasury Note which is used to track the Note's return until its maturity. The
  index is unmanaged and is not subject to the same management and trading
  expenses of a mutual fund.

  All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future
  results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, and redemption
  values may be more or less than the original cost. No adjustment has been made
  for shareholder tax liability on dividends or capital gains.

    1. Significant Accounting Policies

    The Income Return Account Portfolio ("Income Return Account") and the Short-
Term U.S. Treasury Securities Portfolio ("Short-Term U.S. Treasury") are
separate investment portfolios ("Portfolios") of the Smith Barney Funds, Inc.
("Fund"). The Fund, a Maryland corporation, is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management
investment company. The Fund consists of these Portfolios and two other separate
investment portfolios: Equity Income and U.S. Government Securities Portfolios.
The financial statements and financial highlights for the other portfolios are
presented in separate annual reports.

    The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolios
are: (a) securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date; (b) U.S.
Government and Agency Obligations are valued at the mean between the bid and
asked prices; (c) short-term investments that have a maturity of more than 60
days are valued at prices based on market quotations for securities of similar
type, yield and maturity; short-term investments and securities maturing within
60 days are valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premiums,
which approximates market value; (d) interest income is recorded on the accrual
basis; (e) gains or losses on the sale of securities are calculated by using the
specific identification method; (f) direct expenses are charged to each
portfolio and each class; management fees and general fund expenses are
allocated on the basis of relative net assets; (g) dividends and distributions
to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date; (h) each portfolio intends
to comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, pertaining to regulated investment companies to make distributions
of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income
and excise taxes; (i) the character of income and gains to be distributed are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. At December 31, 1995,
reclassifications were made to the Fund's capital accounts to reflect permanent
book/tax differences and income and gains available for distributions under
income tax regulations. Net investment income, net realized gains and net assets
were not affected by this price change; and (j) estimates and assumptions are
required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets
resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the
economic environment, financial

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause
actual results to differ from these amounts.

    2. Management Agreements and Transactions with Affiliated Persons

    Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"), a subsidiary of Smith
Barney Holdings Inc., acts as investment manager to the Fund. The management fee
for the Income Return Account and U.S. Government Securities Portfolios is
determined by aggregating the assets of each Portfolio and applying a formula
calculated at the annual rate of 0.50% on the first $200 million of the
aggregate average daily net assets of the two portfolios and 0.40% on the
aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $200 million; this total is then
allocated to each Portfolio based on their relative average daily net assets.
Short-Term U.S. Treasury pays SBMFM a management fee calculated at the annual
rate of 0.45% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. These fees are
calculated daily and paid monthly.

    Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"), another subsidiary of Smith Barney Holdings Inc.,
acts as distributor of Fund shares. For the year ended December 31, 1995, SB
received sales charges of approximately $33,000 on sales of Income Return
Account Class A shares.

    There is a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 1.00% on Class C
shares if redemption occurs less than one year from initial purchase. For the
year ended December 31, 1995, CDSCs paid to SB for Class C shares were
approximately $1,000.

    Pursuant to a Distribution Plan, Income Return Account pays a distribution
fee and service fee with respect to its Class C shares calculated at an annual
rate of 0.20% and 0.15% of average daily net assets, respectively. Short-Term
U.S. Treasury pays a service fee with respect to Class A shares calculated at
the annual rate of 0.25% of its average daily net assets and a distribution fee
calculated at the annual rate of 0.10% of average daily net assets. For the year
ended December 31, 1995, total Distribution Plan fees were as follows:

                                                    Class A     Class C

    All officers and three Directors of the Fund are employees of SB.

    3. Investments

    During the year ended December 31, 1995, the aggregate cost of purchases and
proceeds from sales of investments (including maturities, but excluding short-
term securities) were as follows:
 
                                               Income   
                                               Return      Short-Term
                                               Account    U.S. Treasury
=======================================================================
Purchases                                    $21,839,540   $25,328,281
Sales                                         19,340,625    65,454,151
=======================================================================

At December 31, 1995, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and
depreciation of investments for Federal income tax purposes by Portfolio were
approximately as follows:
 
                                               Income   
                                               Return      Short-Term
                                               Account    U.S. Treasury
=======================================================================
Gross unrealized appreciation                  $264,972     $4,000,021
Gross unrealized depreciation                    (3,462)       (76,254)
Net unrealized appreciation                    $261,510     $3,923,767
======================================================================

    4. Repurchase Agreements

    The Portfolios purchase (and their custodian take possession of) U.S.
Government Securities from banks and securities dealers subject to agreements to
resell the securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the next
business day) at an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Portfolios require
continual maintenance of the market value of the collateral in amounts at least
equal to the repurchase price.

    5. Capital Shares

    At December 31, 1995, the Fund had two billion shares of capital stock
authorized with a par value of $0.01 per share. The Income Return Account has
the ability to issue multiple classes of shares. Each share of a class
represents an identical interest in the Income Return Account and has the same
rights, except that each class bears certain expenses specifically related to
the distribution of its shares. Effective November 7, 1994, the Fund adopted a
new class structure, renaming existing Class B shares as Class C shares and
renaming former Class C shares as Class Y shares for the Income Return Account.

    7. Capital Loss Carryforward

    At December 31, 1995, Income Return Account and Short-Term U.S. Treasury had
for Federal income tax purposes approximately $1,695,000 and $8,073,000 of
unused capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized gains. As
a result of the transfer, Short-Term U.S. Treasury acquired approximately
$3,000,000 of capital loss carryforwards from Limited Maturity Treasury, which
is part of the $8,073,000. To the extent that these capital carryforward losses
are used to offset capital gains, it is probable that the gains so offset will
not be distributed. The amount and year of expiration for each capital
carryforward loss are indicated below:

Independent Auditors' Report
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Smith Barney Funds, Inc.:

     We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the schedules of investments, of the Income Return Account and the
Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities Portfolios of Smith Barney Funds, Inc. as of
December 31, 1995, and the related statements of operations for the year then
ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-

five-year period then ended with respect to the Income Return Account Portfolio
and for each of the years in the four-year period then ended and the period from
November 11, 1991 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1991 with respect
to the Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities Portfolio. These financial statements
and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights 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 owned as of
December 31, 1995, by correspondence with the custodian. 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.

                                                                              27

US Government Securities Portfolio


Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to provide you with the annual report for the year ended December
31, 1995 for Smith Barney Funds, Inc. - U.S. Government Securities Portfolio. In
this report, we summarize the period's prevailing economic and market conditions
and outline our portfolio strategy. A more detailed summary of performance can
be found in the appropriate sections that follow in the annual report.

Performance Summary

For the twelve months ended December 31, 1995, Smith Barney Funds, Inc. - U.S.
Government Securities Portfolio posted an average annual total return of 16.52%
for Class A shares. This performance compares favorably to the Lipper Analytical
Services, Inc. total return average for GNMA funds of 16.25%. (Lipper Analytical
Services, Inc. is a major fund performance tracking organization.)

1995: The Year in Review

When 1995 began, the Federal Reserve had already raised interest rates six times
in 1994. The year started with signs that the U.S. economy, as measured by gross
domestic product (GDP), would continue its recovery. Economic indicators were
strong and the U.S. economy was growing at an annual rate of roughly 5.0%. This
rapid growth, combined with strong employment, was seen by the Federal Reserve
as a sign of a possible increase in the rate of inflation. In an effort to head
off any such increase, the Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate from
5.50% to 6.00% in early 1995, effectively slowing economic growth. (The federal
funds rate represents the rate banks charge each other for overnight loans and
affects all other interest rates.)

As early as March, automobile manufacturers, for example, began reporting
sluggish demand and responded with production cuts. This contributed to slower
economic growth and the Federal Reserve Board's concerns were allayed. The
Federal Reserve eased monetary policy on July 6, 1995 by lowering the federal
funds rate from 6.00% to 5.75%. Following its July meeting, the Federal Reserve
held firm and did not lower short-term interest rates until its final meeting of
the year. Citing subdued inflation, the Federal Reserve lowered the federal
funds rate another 25 basis points to 5.50% in December.

Investment Strategy

During the course of 1995, the U.S. Government Securities Portfolio went from
being very defensive to slightly bullish. We began to increase the Portfolio's
holdings in GNMA securities which, in our view, represented a 

                                                                               1

good value. In 1995, mortgage-backed securities performed well, but not as well
as U.S. Treasuries. We think mortgage-backed securities continue to represent
fair value because the spread between mortgage-backed securities and Treasuries
is significantly higher today and because of our expectations that prepayments
and mortgage refinancing should be much lower than what occurred in 1993. We
believe the Portfolio's better relative performance than the index can be
attributed to lowered prepayment expectations regarding GNMA securities, a
condition we expect to continue. We therefore plan on selling U.S. Treasuries
and investing in current-coupon or near-premium GNMA securities in the near
term.

In our view, any continuation of a bond market rally in 1996 is dependent on
signs of economic weakness. We therefore expect to remain cautious in managing
the U.S. Government Securities Portfolio and will keep its duration in a four-
year range until we perceive any signs of economic weakness.

Market Outlook

There are both positive and negative factors to consider as we enter 1996. On
the negative side, the stalled budget negotiations in Washington, D.C., a
potential debt default by the U.S. government and the situation in Bosnia are,
in our view, developing situations that investors should watch closely.

While there are always negative factors that may adversely affect the market,
our outlook for the next six months is positive because of strong economic
fundamentals such as moderate economic growth with low inflation, the rise
of fiscal conservatism and the likelihood of an eventual budget compromise in
Washington, D.C. In addition, the strengthening U.S. dollar, declining interest
rates and changing demographics such as the aging of America that should act to
spur more savings and investing are also positive factors worth noting.

In closing, we would like to thank you for your investment in Smith Barney
Funds, Inc. - U.S. Government Securities Portfolio.

Sincerely,


/s/ Heath B. McLendon          /s/  Patrick Sheehan

(1)  Assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if
     any, at net asset value and does not reflect a deduction of the applicable
     sales charge with respect to Class A shares or the contingent deferred
     sales charges ("CDSC") with respect to Class B and C shares.
(2)  Assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if
     any, at net asset value. In addition, Class A shares reflect the deduction
     of the maximum initial sales charge of 4.50% and Class B shares reflect the
     deduction of a 4.50% CDSC, which applies if shares are redeemed less than
     one year from initial purchase. This CDSC declines by 0.50% the first year
     after purchase and by 1.00% per year thereafter until no CDSC is incurred.
     Class C shares reflect the deduction of a 1.00% CDSC, which applies if
     shares are redeemed within the first year of purchase.
*    Inception dates for Class A, B, C, Y and Z shares are October 9, 1984,
     November 7, 1994, December 2, 1992, January 12, 1993, and November 7, 1994,
     respectively.

  31, 1985, assuming deduction of the maximum 4.00% sales charge in effect at
  the time of investment and reinvestment of dividends (after deduction of
  applicable sales charge through November 7, 1994, and thereafter at net asset
  value) and capital gains, if any, at net asset value through December 31,
  1995. The Lehman Brothers GNMA Mutual Fund Index is composed of 15-year and 
  30-year fixed-rate securities backed by mortgage pools of the Government
  National Mortgage Association. The index is unmanaged and is not subject to
  the management and trading expenses of a mutual fund. The performance of the
  Portfolio's other classes may be greater or less than the Class A shares'
  performance indicated on this chart, depending on whether greater or lesser
  sales charges and fees were incurred by shareholders investing in other
  classes.

  All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future
  results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, and redemption
  value may be more or less than the original cost. No adjustment has been made
  for shareholder tax liability on dividends or capital gains.

Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  1.  Significant Accounting Policies

  The U.S. Government Securities Portfolio ("Portfolio") is a separate
investment portfolio of the Smith Barney Funds, Inc. ("Fund"). The Fund, a
Maryland corporation, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund
consists of this Portfolio and three other separate investment portfolios:
Equity Income, Income Return Account and Short-Term U.S. Treasury Securities
Portfolios. The financial statements and financial highlights for the other
portfolios are presented in separate annual reports.

  The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund are: (a)
securities transactions are accounted for on trade date; (b) U.S. Government and
Agency Obligations are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices; (c)
short-term investments that have a maturity of more than 60 days are valued at
prices based on market quotations for securities of similar type, yield and
maturity; short-term investments and securities maturing within 60 days are
valued at cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium, which
approximates market value; (d) interest income is recorded on the accrual basis;
(e) gains or losses on the sale of securities are calculated by using the
specific identification method; (f) direct expenses are charged to each
portfolio and each class; management fees and general fund expenses are
allocated on the basis of relative net assets; (g) dividends and distributions
to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date; (h) each portfolio intends
to comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended, pertaining to regulated investment companies to make distributions
of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income
and excise taxes; (i) the character of income and gains to be distributed are
determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles. At December 31, 1995,
reclassifications were made to the Fund's capital accounts to reflect permanent
book/tax differences and income and gains available for distributions under
income tax regulations. Accordingly, a portion of accumulated net realized loss
amounting to $14,573,486 was reclassified to paid-in capital. Net investment
income, net realized gains and net assets were not affected by 

                                                                              11

this change; and (j) estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding
assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when
financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment,
financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates
could cause actual results to differ from these amounts.

  2.  Management Agreement and Transactions
      with Affiliated Persons

  Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"), a subsidiary of Smith
Barney Holdings Inc. ("SBH"), acts as investment manager to the Fund. The
management fee for the U.S. Government Securities and Income Return Account
Portfolios is determined by aggregating the assets of each Portfolio and
applying a formula calculated at the annual rate of 0.50% on the first $200
million of the aggregate average daily net assets of the two Portfolios and
0.40% on the aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $200 million; this
total is then allocated to each Portfolio based on their relative average daily
net assets. These fees are calculated daily and paid monthly.

  Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"), another subsidiary of SBH, acts as distributor of
Fund shares. For the year ended December 31, 1995, SB received sales charges of
approximately $284,000 on sales of the Portfolio's Class A shares.

  There is a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 4.50% on Class B
shares, which applies if redemption occurs less than one year from initial
purchase. This CDSC declines by 0.50% the first year after purchase and by 1.00%
per year thereafter until no CDSC is incurred. Class C shares have a 1.00% CDSC,
which applies if redemption occurs within the first year of purchase. For the
year ended December 31, 1995, CDSCs paid to SB were approximately:

                                                               Class B  Class C
================================================================================
CDSC                                                            $11,000  $5,000

    Pursuant to a Distribution Plan, the Portfolio pays a service fee with
respect to its Class A, B and C shares calculated at the annual rate of 0.25% of
the average daily net assets for each class, respectively. In addition, the
Portfolio also pays a distribution fee with respect to Class B and Class C
shares calculated at the annual rate of 0.50% and 0.45% of the average daily net
assets for each class, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 1995, total
Distribution Plan fees were as follows:

=====================================================================
</TABLE> 

    All officers and three Directors of the Fund are employees of SB.

    3.  Investments

    During the year ended December 31, 1995, the aggregate cost of purchases
and proceeds from sales of investments (including maturities, but excluding
short-term securities) were as follows:

=====================================================================
Purchases                                                $226,539,161
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Sales                                                     232,315,964
=====================================================================

    At December 31, 1995, the aggregate unrealized appreciation and depreciation
of investments for Federal income tax purposes were approximately as follows:
 
=====================================================================
Gross unrealized appreciation                             $12,827,014
Gross unrealized depreciation                                (666,519)
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized appreciation                               $12,160,495
=====================================================================

    4. Repurchase Agreements

    The Portfolio purchases (and its custodian takes possession of) U.S.
Government Securities from banks and securities dealers subject to agreements to
resell the securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the next
business day) at an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Portfolio requires

    5.  Securities Traded on a When-Issued or To-Be-Announced Basis

    The Portfolio may trade securities, particularly GNMAs, on a "to-be-
announced" ("TBA") basis. In a TBA transaction, the Portfolio commits to
purchasing or selling securities for which specific information is not yet known
at the time of the trade, particularly the face amount and maturity date.
Securities purchased on a TBA basis are not settled until they are delivered to
the Portfolio, normally 15 to 45 days later. These transactions are subject to
market fluctuations and their current value is determined in the same manner as
for other portfolio securities.

    As of December 31, 1995, the Portfolio held one TBA security with a cost of
$20,406,250.

    6.  Capital Shares

    At December 31, 1995, the Fund had two billion shares of capital stock
authorized with a par value of $0.01 per share. The Portfolio has the ability to
issue multiple classes of shares. Each share of a class represents an identical
interest in the Portfolio and has the same rights, except that each class bears
certain expenses specifically related to the distribution of its shares.
Effective November 7, 1994, the Fund adopted a new class structure, renaming
existing Class B shares as Class C shares and former C shares as Class Y shares.

    At December 31, 1995, total paid-in capital amounted to the following for
each class:

    7. Transfer of Net Assets

    On October 13, 1995, the Portfolio acquired the net assets and certain
liabilities of the Smith Barney Funds, Inc. --Monthly Payment Government
Portfolio ("Monthly Payment") pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by
the Monthly Payment shareholders on October 6, 1995. Total shares issued by the
Portfolio and the total net assets of Monthly Payment on the date of transfer
were:

=============================================================================
</TABLE> 

    The total net assets of Monthly Payment before acquisition included
unrealized appreciation of $1,425,657 and a net realized loss of $2,370,573. The
transaction was structured for tax purposes to qualify as a tax-free
reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

    8.  Capital Loss Carryforward

    At December 31, 1995, the Portfolio had for Federal income tax purposes
approximately $4,584,000 of unused capital loss carryforwards available to
offset future realized gains. As a result of the transfer, U.S. Government
Securities acquired approximately $698,000 of capital loss carryforwards from
Monthly Payment, which is part of the $4,584,000. To the extent that these
carryforward losses are used to offset capital gains, it is probable that the
gains so offset will not be distributed.

    9.  Mortgage Dollar Rolls

    The Portfolio may enter into mortgage dollar rolls in which the Portfolio
sells mortgage securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously
contracts to repurchase similar, but not identical, securities at the same price
on a fixed date. The Portfolio receives compensation as consideration for
entering into the commitment to repurchase. The counterparty receives all
principal and interest payments, including prepayments, made with regard to this
security while it is the holder. Mortgage dollar rolls may be renewed with a new
purchase and fixed repurchase price and a cash settlement made at each renewal
without physical delivery of the securities subject to the contract.

     At December 31, 1995, there were no open mortgage dollar roll contracts.

Independent Auditors' Report
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of
Smith Barney Funds, Inc.:

  We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities,
including the schedule of investments, of the U.S. Government Securities
Portfolio of Smith Barney Funds, Inc. as of December 31, 1995, and the related
statement of operations for the year then ended, statements of changes in net
assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the
financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended.
These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of
the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

  We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights 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 owned as of
December 31, 1995, by correspondence with the custodian. As to securities
purchased but not received, we performed other appropriate 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, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
U.S. Government Securities Portfolio of Smith Barney Funds, Inc. as of December
31, 1995, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes
in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended and
the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then
ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
