Dear Shareholders:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Lexington International Fund climbed 1.2%* during the second quarter.
This compares favorably to the unmanaged Morgan Stanley EAFE Index which rose
0.3% for the same period. The average international fund appreciated 4.0% during
the second quarter according to Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. For the first
six months of 1995, Lexington International Fund returned -2.4%*, while the
unmanaged Morgan Stanley EAFE Index provided a 1.8% return. The average
international fund is up 2.3% for the first six months.
The Lexington International Fund underperformed its peers during the second
quarter due to several factors. Although substantially reduced, the Fund's
holdings of Japanese cyclical shares continued to decline sharply. Technology
stocks were the star performers during the quarter. Electronic component and
instrument stocks were up 23.2%, while data processing stocks returned 12.7%.
The Lexington International Fund held less technology stocks than its peer
group. Finally, the Fund's 20% hedged position on foreign currencies prevented
the Fund from reaping additional benefits from further dollar weakness.
Most international equities performed well during the second quarter due to
the effects of a slowing U.S. economy. Interest rate hikes by the Federal
Reserve finally began to slow the economy as both auto and housing sales
slumped. In fact, the slowdown in the U.S. economy was more pronounced and rapid
than most investors had expected. This led to a powerful global bond rally which
was particularly strong in the U.S. as ten year government bond yields fell
1.05% to 6.25%. European bonds also enjoyed a strong rally while Japanese bond
yields collapsed .85% to just 2.9%. Not surprisingly, equities performed well as
world bond yields fell. The Japanese economy continued to struggle as secular
problems such as a weak banking system and bloated employment levels were
exacerbated by a strong yen. Despite a strong bond market, Japanese stocks fell
6.5%. Both European and emerging markets generally performed well as slower
world growth fueled bonds and stocks.
Looking toward the second half of 1995 we expect the U.S. economy to
strengthen. Lower interest rates should spur renewed interest in housing and
autos. Inventory levels should be at more normal levels and thus prevent a
further drag on the economy. In the short term a strengthening U.S. economy
should weaken international bonds and stocks. European economies will benefit
from a pickup in U.S. economic growth but further restructuring and strong
currencies will keep growth low at under 3%. This should allow the Bundesbank
to cut interest rates which will provide support for European markets. Emerging
markets are at relatively attractive valuations but are vulnerable to a
correction when the U.S. market falls. Japanese stocks remain unattractive long
term until companies get serious about cutting costs in the form of reducing
labor. After a recent visit to Japan we find this unlikely to happen in the
immediate future. Finally, we remain bullish on the dollar, particularly
against the yen. Signs of U.S. economic strength, a further cut in German
interest rates, and a continuing fall in Japan's trade surplus should combine
for a stronger dollar by the end of 1995.
The Lexington International Fund will probably not see dramatic changes in
country weighting in the second half of 1995. As U.S. economic acceleration
becomes evident a reduction of interest sensitive stocks is likely, particularly
in Hong Kong. Underperforming markets such as South Korea are looking more
attractive and would benefit from a pick-up in U.S. and world growth. European
markets remain attractive with our focus on countries likely to enjoy interest
rate cuts. Political changes in Spain may also provide opportunities in the
months ahead. We believe it will be a stock picker's market and the focus will
be on individual stocks. We will continue to look for quality managements which
have an ability to grow a business. Stock selection will continue to be based on
a long term view of a company's prospects and applying our valuation criteria.
The Fund will continue to hedge a portion of the portfolio back into dollars as
we expect a strong U.S. currency.
Also included in this semi-annual report to shareholders is a summary of the
results of the shareholder meeting held on April 19, 1995. All of the proposals
were approved by a majority of shareholders.

Lexington International Fund, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 1995 (unaudited) and December 31, 1994
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Lexington International Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is an open end diversified
management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. The Fund commenced operations on January 3, 1994. The
following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund
in the preparation of its financial statements:
Investments Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on the
identified cost basis. Investments are stated at market value based on closing
prices reported by the exchange on which the securities are traded on the last
business day of the period or, for over-the-counter securities, at the average
between bid and asked prices, except for short-term securities which are stated
at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market
quotations are not readily available and other assets are valued at fair value
as determined by management and approved in good faith by the Board of
Directors. All investments quoted in foreign currencies are valued in U.S.
dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates prevailing at the
close of business. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned.
Foreign Currency Transactions Foreign currencies (and receivables and
payables denominated in foreign currencies) are translated into U.S. dollar
amounts at current exchange rates. Translation gains or losses resulting from
changes in exchange rates and realized gains and losses on the settlement of
foreign currency transactions are reported in the statement of operations. In
addition, the Fund may enter into forward foreign exchange contracts in order to
hedge against foreign currency risk in the purchase or sale of securities
denominated in foreign currency. The Fund may also enter into such contracts to
hedge against changes in foreign currency exchange rates on portfolio positions.
These contracts are marked to market daily, by recognizing the difference
between the contract exchange rate and the current market rate as unrealized
gains or losses. Realized gains or losses are recognized when contracts are
settled and are reported in the statement of operations.
Distributions In accordance with Statement of Position 93-2: Determination,
Disclosure and Financial Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain and
Return of Capital Distributions by Investment Companies, as of December 31,
1994, book and tax basis differences amounting to $142,947 have been
reclassified from undistributed net investment income to distributions in excess
of net realized gains on investments. Distributions in excess of net realized
gains reflect temporary book-tax differences arising from losses resulting from
wash sales and Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") Excise Tax distribution
requirements and associated post-October loss deferral provisions, which
effectively allow the deferral of net realized capital losses to the next tax
year.
Federal Income Taxes It is the Fund's intention to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to "regulated investment
companies" and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.
Deferred Organization Expenses Organization expenses aggregating $48,067
have been deferred and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over five
years.

2. Investment Advisory Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliate
The Fund pays an investment advisory fee to Lexington Management Corporation
("LMC") at the rate of 1% of average daily net assets. The investment advisory
contract provides that the total annual expenses of the Fund (including
management fees, but excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and
extraordinary expenses) will not exceed the level of expenses which the Fund is
permitted to bear under the most restrictive expense limitation imposed by any
state in which shares of the Fund are offered for sale. No reimbursement was
required for the six months ended June 30, 1995.
The Fund also reimburses LMC for certain expenses, including accounting and
shareholder servicing costs, which are incurred by the Fund, but paid by LMC.
3. Distribution Plan
The Fund has a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") which allows payments to finance
activities associated with the distribution of the Fund's shares. The Plan
provides that the Fund may pay distribution fees on a reimbursement basis,
including payments to Lexington Fund Distributors, Inc. ("LFD"), the Fund's
distributor, in amounts not exceeding .25% per annum of the Fund's average daily
net assets. Total distribution expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1995
were $18,964 and are set forth in the statement of operations.

6. Investment Risks
The Fund's investments in foreign securities may involve risks not present in
domestic investments. Since foreign securities may be denominated in a foreign
currency and involve settlement and pay interest or dividends in foreign
currencies, changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S.
dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the
Fund. Foreign investments may also subject the Fund to foreign government
exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or
economic developments, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk
of the investments.
In addition to the risks described above, risks may arise from forward foreign
currency contracts as the result of the potential inability of counterparties to
meet the terms of their contracts.
7. Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts
At June 30, 1995, the Fund was committed to sell foreign currencies under the
following forward foreign exchange contracts:
