                            PORTFOLIO MANAGER REPORT

        COMMENTS FROM DISCUSSIONS WITH GARY J. GUTHRIE, PORTFOLIO MANAGER

HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED
OVER THE PAST SIX-MONTH AND
ONE-YEAR PERIODS?
                             The Fund has a total return of 5.53%(1) and
                             12.40%(1), exclusive of sales load for the six
                             months and one-year ended February 29, 2000,
                             respectively. This compares with the S&P 500
                             Index(3) ("S&P 500") returns of 4.09% and 11.71%
                             for the period. The Fund had a five-year average
                             annual return of 23.55%(1) for the period ending
                             February 29, 2000 and an average annual return of
                             21.47%(1) since the Fund's inception of September
                             1, 1994, exclusive of sales loads.

WHAT IS THE COMPOSITION OF
THE
PORTFOLIO AT THIS TIME?      The Fund is currently invested in 69 companies,
                             which represent 30 industries. We are broadly
                             diversified with the single largest equity holding
                             at 5.9% of the portfolio while the ten largest
                             positions represent 33.2% of the portfolio as of
                             February 29, 2000*.

WHAT COMMENTS DO YOU HAVE
ON
THE MARKET AND FUND
PERFORMANCE?                 Divergence between technology shares and the
                             broader market indexes continued as both the
                             DJIA(2) and S&P 500(3) ("S&P 500") posted year to
                             date losses as compared to the surging NASDAQ.
                             Traditional measures of valuation provided little
                             protection while the debate of "old" economy versus
                             "new" economy grew louder.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR
THE NEXT
SIX MONTHS?                  Expected Fed rate increases continue to overshadow
                             the market outlook. Technology remains the market
                             leader as the "old" economy stocks struggle to find
                             a base amid the market downturn. The combined
                             impact of higher interest rates and the doubling of
                             oil prices have yet to dampen economic growth.

                    MAGNA INTERMEDIATE GOVERNMENT BOND FUND

                            PORTFOLIO MANAGER REPORT

      COMMENTS FROM A CONVERSATION WITH L. CLARK ZEDRIC, PORTFOLIO MANAGER

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM
DURING
THE PAST 12 MONTHS, AND
DURING THE
FIRST TWO MONTHS OF 2000?    The Fund provided a total return of (1.97)%(1)
                             exclusive of sales loads, for the 12-month period
                             ended February 29, 2000. In comparison, the Lehman
                             Brothers 5-10 Year Government/Corporate Bond Index
                             fell 0.62% and the Lehman Brothers 1- Year
                             Government/Corporate Bond Index rose 3.02%. The
                             Fund had a five-year average annual return of
                             5.13%(1) for the period ending February 29, 2000
                             and an average annual return of 4.94%(1) since the
                             Fund's inception of September 1, 1994, exclusive of
                             sales loads.

                             Through February 29, 2000, the Fund's year-to-date
                             return, exclusive of sales charges, was 0.28%(1).
                             During the same period, the Lehman Brothers 5-10
                             Year Government/Corporate Bond Index rose 0.25%,
                             and the Lehman Brothers 1-5 Year
                             Government/Corporate Bond Index rose 0.55%.

THE FUND'S 12 MONTH RETURN
DECLINED DRAMATICALLY FROM
THE SAME
PERIOD ONE YEAR EARLIER.
WHAT
PRIMARILY ACCOUNTED FOR THE
DECLINE?                     During the 12 month period, interest rates rose
                             substantially in the 1-10 year range. The ten year
                             bond went from 5.39% at month-end February 1999 to
                             6.41% at month-end February 2000. Because bond
                             values rise as interest rates fall, this rise in
                             rates pushed our total return lower. The Fund is
                             concentrated in the 5-10 year area.

EVEN THOUGH THE FUND
DECLINED, YOU
WERE ABLE TO MAINTAIN A
HIGH QUALITY
PORTFOLIO AND A RELATIVELY
GENEROUS
COUPON RATE?                 Yes. As of February 29, 2000 over 65% of the
                             portfolio was invested in Federal Agency Bonds and
                             U.S. Treasury Notes with the remainder in high
                             quality corporate paper and cash. The Fund's
                             dominant credit rating was AAA; the Fund owns
                             nothing below an A rating. As of February 29, 2000
                             the average portfolio coupon rate(2) was almost
                             7.00%*.

HOW HAVE YOU POSITIONED THE
FUND
FOR THE COMING YEAR?         An essential part of our strategy is to maintain a
                             "ladder" with bond maturities spread over several
                             years. This helps us to lessen the impact of
                             interest rate fluctuations on the value of the
                             portfolio and ensures that some bonds mature each
                             year. We continue the "ladder" strategy and
                             recently have been extending the length slightly by
                             purchasing some bonds with 10 to 15 years maturity,
                             modestly increasing average life and duration. This
                             action reflects our view that interest rates after
                             rising well over a full percentage point in the 1-5
                             year range, may increase slightly but then should
                             decline in the months ahead. We do not want to
                             deviate from our overall strategy. We feel that
                             even though the 5-10 year range was the worst
                             performer this past year it could very well be the
                             best in the year ahead.

(1) With a maximum sales charge of 4.00%, the total return for the 12-month
    period ended February 29, 2000 would have been (5.89)%, and the total return
    for the 2000 year-to-date period (through February 29, 2000) would have been
    (3.71)%; the five year return for the period ended February 29, 2000 and the
    return since inception with a maximum sales charge would have been 4.28% and
    4.16%, respectively.

The performance of the Magna Intermediate Government Bond Fund is measured
against the Lehman Brothers 1-5 Year Government/ Corporate Bond Index and the
Lehman Brothers 5-10 Year Government/Corporate Bond Index; these two indices are
unmanaged and generally represent a range of 1-5 and 5-10-year maturities. An
investor cannot invest directly in an index.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net
asset value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be
worth more or less than original cost.

                           MAGNA MONEY MARKET FUND(1)

                            PORTFOLIO MANAGER REPORT

          COMMENTS FROM DISCUSSIONS WITH LUCY KASSON, PORTFOLIO MANAGER

WHAT IS THE OBJECTIVE OF
THIS
FUND?                        The Magna Money Market Fund seeks maximum current
                             income consistent with preservation of capital and
                             liquidity. The net assets of the Fund as of
                             February 29, 2000 were approximately $188.3
                             million.

WHAT WERE THE CONDITIONS IN
THE
MONEY MARKETS DURING THE
SIX
MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 29,
2000?                        Money market investments remained attractive
                             throughout the past six months, and the market
                             continued to experience record inflows of investor
                             cash. U.S. economic data remained strong with
                             investors preferring to concentrate on more
                             conservative high-quality investments like money
                             market funds.

WHAT WAS YOUR STRATEGY
DURING
THE PERIOD?                  During the recent period, we kept the Fund in a
                             flexible position. This strategy meant keeping
                             portfolio duration relatively neutral in order to
                             take advantage of incrementally higher yields as
                             they became available.

WHAT TYPE OF SECURITIES
CONSTITUTED THE LARGEST
HOLDINGS*?                   We positioned the largest holdings of the Fund to
                             include U.S. government securities and agency
                             securities, followed by top-rated commercial paper,
                             and bank and corporate obligations.

HOW WILL YOU MANAGE THE
FUND
GOING FORWARD?               We believe the Fed will tighten until the economy
                             slows. This would allow new issues to offer higher
                             yields, potentially attracting investors to money
                             market funds. We continue to favor an "ease into
                             the market" approach, keeping the credit quality
                             high.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND FUND DESCRIPTION

Magna Funds (the "Trust") is an open-end, diversified management investment
company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"), as
amended. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on April 28,
1994, and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial
interest in multiple series. Two series commenced investment operations on
September 1, 1994, the Magna Growth & Income Fund and the Magna Intermediate
Government Bond Fund (the "Funds"). The Magna Money Market commenced investment
operations on July 7, 1999 and currently has only one class issued and
outstanding.

The investment objective of the Magna Growth & Income Fund is to seek long-term
growth of capital, current income and growth of income. The investment objective
of the Magna Intermediate Government Bond Fund and the Magna Money Market Fund
is to achieve current income consistent with preservation of capital.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Trust.

Investment Valuation: The variable net asset funds are valued as followed:
Equity securities listed on an established securities exchange or on the NASDAQ
National Market System are valued at the closing sale price on the exchange
where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, and in
the case of over-the-counter securities not so listed, at the last bid price.
Long-term debt securities are valued by a pricing service, which determines
valuations of normal institutional-size trading units of long-term debt
securities. Short-term debt securities having a maturity of 60 days or less from
the valuation date are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.

The Money Market Fund's securities are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security
at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter assuming a constant
amortization to maturity of the difference between the principal amount due at
maturity and cost.

Investment Transactions: All securities transactions are recorded on a trade
date basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on sales of
securities are determined on the basis of identified cost.

Repurchase Agreements: A repurchase agreement customarily obligates the seller
at the time it sells securities to the Funds to repurchase the securities at a
mutually agreed upon time and price which, in the case of the Funds'
transactions, is usually within seven days. The total amount received by the
Funds on repurchase agreements is calculated to exceed the price paid by the
Funds, reflecting an agreed upon market rate of interest for the period of time
to the settlement date, and will not necessarily be related to the interest rate
on the underlying securities. The underlying securities are ordinarily United
States government securities. Repurchase agreements will be fully collateralized
at all times. However, to the extent that the proceeds from any sale upon
default in the obligation to repurchase is less than the repurchase price, the
Funds would suffer a loss. Also, the Funds might incur costs and encounter
delays in liquidating collateral.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders: The Magna Intermediate Government
Bond Fund and the Magna Money Market Fund declare dividends from net investment
income daily and make payments monthly. The Magna Growth & Income Fund declares
and pays dividends from net investment income quarterly. Each Fund also
distributes all of its net capital gains, if any, on an annual basis, normally
in December. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income
distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. The differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
mortgage-backed securities, expiring capital loss carryforwards, and deferrals
of certain losses. Permanent book and tax basis differences have been
reclassified among the components of net assets.

Federal Income Taxes: Each Fund of the Trust is treated as a separate entity for
federal tax purposes. Each Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated
investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. By so
qualifying, the Funds will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent
that they distribute all of their taxable income, including realized capital
gains, for the fiscal year. In addition, by distributing substantially all of
their net investment income and capital gains during the calendar year, the
Funds will not be subject to a federal excise tax.

Expenses: Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged
directly to that Fund. Expenses relating to the Funds collectively are prorated
to the Funds on the basis of each Fund's relative net assets.

Estimates: The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles which permit management to make certain
estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Each Fund has entered into a separate Investment Advisory Agreement with Union
Planters Bank, N.A. ("UPC"). Under these agreements, each Fund pays a fee,
calculated daily and paid monthly, based on the respective average daily net
assets of such Fund. This fee is 0.75% for the Magna Growth & Income Fund, 0.50%
for the Magna Intermediate Government Bond Fund, and 0.40% for the Magna Money
Market Fund. UPC has voluntarily agreed to reduce its fees with respect to the
Magna Growth & Income Fund to 0.50% and with respect to the Magna Intermediate
Government Bond Fund to 0.40% of daily net assets through February 29, 2000.
Also, UPC has voluntarily agreed to reduce its fee for the Magna Money Market
Fund to 0.17% of daily net assets through August 31, 2000. This voluntary
reduction has been in effect since September 1, 1995 for the Magna Growth &
Income Fund and the Magna Intermediate Government Bond Fund; the Magna Money
Market Fund has been in effect since June 1, 1999. For the period ended February
29, 2000, UPC voluntarily waived investment advisory fees of $192,878, $40,039,
and $196,884 for the Magna Growth & Income Fund, Magna Intermediate Government
Bond Fund, and the Magna Money Market Fund, respectively.

such officers are not paid any fees directly by the Funds for serving as
officers of the Trust. As administrator, BISYS voluntarily waived administrative
fees of $25,679 for the Magna Money Market Fund for the six months ended
February 29, 2000.

Each Fund has adopted a Service Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The purpose of each plan is to
compensate the Funds' Distributor for expenses borne in connection with the
provision of personal services provided to investors and/or maintenance of
shareholder accounts, at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of each Fund's
average daily net assets. For the period ended February 29, 2000, BISYS (the
"Distributor") voluntarily waived the entire 0.25% for each Fund, amounting to
$192,878, $100,098, and $214,005 of service fees for the Magna Growth & Income
Fund, the Magna Intermediate Government Bond Fund, and the Magna Money Market
Fund, respectively.

BISYS is entitled to receive commissions on sales of shares of the Funds for the
period ended February 29, 2000, BISYS received $2,129 of commissions on sales of
shares of the Funds, of which $1,862 was allowed to affiliated broker/dealers of
the Funds.

Each of the Trust's Trustees who are not affiliated with UPC or BISYS receives
