--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
May 17, 2000
Dear Shareholder:

The following report provides a detailed description of the securities held and
the statement of operations for the C & B Equity Portfolio for the six-month
period ended April 30, 2000.

For this six month period, the C & B Equity Portfolio rose 2.14% versus 7.20%
for the S&P 500 Index. Given Cooke & Bieler's "high quality, low risk" approach
and the market's emphasis up until March 10, 2000 (the peak of NASDAQ) on
technology and disregard for valuations, these results are not out of line with
the expectations of the Cooke & Bieler style nor inconsistent with the firm's
philosophy.

The first four months of this six month period ended April 30, 2000 were
particularly difficult for Cooke & Bieler's "relative value" style since the
S&P 500 Index's performance was dominated by growth stocks. However, most
recently in March and April, our style rebounded and the Portfolio significantly
outperformed the S&P 500 Index.

As of April 30, 2000, common stocks represented 94% of the portfolio, with cash
reserves being 6%.

Cooke & Bieler continues to employ an investment process in which we seek to
produce above average long-term results, in addition to maintaining strong
relative results in flat and down markets. We feel that the strong fundamental
characteristics of the companies held in the C & B Equity Portfolio should help
to provide this downside protection. The high quality characteristics that we
seek, as compared to the S&P 500 Index, include (1) balance sheet strength
measured by a relatively low debt to capital ratio, (2) high levels of return on
equity and return on capital, (3) consistent growth in earnings and dividends,
and (4) use of excess cash flow to repurchase stock.

Sincerely,

/s/ Samuel H. Ballam, III

    All performance presented in this report is historical and should not be
construed as a guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal
    value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when
  redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. A portfolio's
    performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains.

   There are no assurances that a portfolio will meet its stated objectives.

   A portfolio's holdings and allocations are subject to change because it is
actively managed and should not be considered recommendations to buy individual
                                  securities.


                         Definition of Comparative Index

S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index comprised of stocks representing major U.S.
market industries, including 400 industrial stocks, 40 financial stocks, 40
utility stocks and 20 transportation stocks.

    Index returns assume reinvestment of dividends and, unlike a portfolio's
     returns, do not reflect any fees or expenses. If such fees and expenses
       were included in the index returns, the performance would have been
                                     lower.

       Please note that one cannot invest directly in an unmanaged index.

UAM FUNDS                                                C & B EQUITY PORTFOLIO
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

        UAM Funds, Inc., UAM Funds, Inc. II and UAM Trust Funds (collectively
the "UAM Funds") are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The C & B Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a portfolio of UAM Funds,
Inc., is a diversified, open-end management investment company. At April 30,
2000, the UAM Funds were comprised of 49 active portfolios. The information
presented in the financial statements pertains only to the Portfolio. The
objective of the Portfolio is to provide maximum long-term total return with
minimal risk to principal.

A. Significant Accounting Policies: The following significant accounting
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Such
policies are consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its
financial statements. Generally accepted accounting principles may require
Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from
those estimates.

                1. Security Valuation: Investments for which market quotations
        are readily available are stated at market value, which is determined
        using the last reported sale price from the exchange where the security
        is primarily traded. If no sales are reported, as in the case of some
        securities traded over-the-counter, the market value is determined by
        using the last reported bid price. Short-term investments with
        maturities of sixty days or less at time of purchase are valued at
        amortized cost, if it approximates market value. The value of other
        assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available is
        determined in good faith at fair value following procedures approved by
        the Board of Directors.

                2. Federal Income Taxes: It is the Portfolio's intention to
        qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the
        Internal Revenue Code and to distribute all of its taxable income.
        Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required in the
        financial statements.

                3. Repurchase Agreements: In connection with transactions
        involving repurchase agreements, the Portfolio's custodian bank takes
        possession of the underlying securities ("collateral"), the value of
        which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction,
        including accrued interest. To the extent that any repurchase
        transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral is
        monitored on a daily basis to determine the adequacy of the collateral.
        In the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, the Portfolio
        has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in
        satisfaction of the obligation. In the event of default or bankruptcy by
        the counterparty to the

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

        agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds
        may be subject to legal proceedings.

                Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and
        Exchange Commission, the UAM Funds may transfer their daily uninvested
        cash balances into a joint trading account which invests in one or more
        repurchase agreement. This joint repurchase agreement is covered by the
        same collateral requirements as discussed above.

                4. Distributions to Shareholders: The Portfolio will distribute
        substantially all of its net investment income quarterly. Any realized
        net capital gains will be distributed annually. All distributions are
        recorded on ex-dividend date.

                The amount and character of income and capital gain
        distributions to be paid are determined in accordance with Federal
        income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted
        accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing
        book and tax treatments in the timing of the recognition of gains or
        losses on investments.

                Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
        distributions may result in reclassifications to undistributed net
        investment income (loss), accumulated gain (loss) and paid in capital.

                Permanent book-tax differences, if any, are not included in
        ending undistributed net investment income (loss) for the purpose of
        calculating net investment income (loss) per share in the financial
        highlights.

                5. Other: Security transactions are accounted for on trade date,
        the date the trade is executed. Costs used in determining realized gains
        and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on the
        specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on the
        ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis.
        Most expenses of the UAM Funds can be directly attributed to a
        particular portfolio. Expenses that cannot be directly attributed are
        apportioned among the portfolios of the UAM Funds based on their
        relative net assets. Custodian fees for the Portfolio are shown gross of
        expense offsets, if any, for custodian balance credits.

        B. Investment Advisory Services: Under the terms of an investment
advisory agreement, Cooke & Bieler, Inc. (the "Adviser"), a subsidiary of UAM,
provides investment advisory services to the Portfolio at a fee calculated at an
annual rate of 0.625% of average daily net assets. The Adviser has voluntarily
agreed to waive a portion of its advisory fees and to assume expenses, if
necessary, in order to keep

the Portfolio's total annual operating expenses, after the effect of expense
offset arrangements, from exceeding 1.00% of average daily net assets.

        C. Administrative Services: UAM Fund Services, Inc. (the
"Administrator"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of UAM, provides and oversees
administrative, fund accounting, dividend disbursing, shareholder servicing and
transfer agent services to the Portfolio under a Fund Administration Agreement
(the "Agreement"). The Administrator has entered into separate Service
Agreements with SEI Investments Mutual Funds Services ("SEI"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of SEI Investments Company, DST Systems, Inc. ("DST"), and UAM
Shareholder Service Center ("UAMSSC"), an affiliate of UAM, to assist in
providing certain services to the Portfolio.

        Pursuant to the Agreement, the Portfolio pays the Administrator 0.073%
per annum of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio, an annual base fee
of $72,500, and a fee based on the number of active shareholder accounts.

        For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the Administrator was paid
$61,374, of which $26,510 was paid to SEI for their services, $8,137 to DST for
their services, and $5,968 to UAMSSC for their services.

        Effective November 1, 1999, the UAM Funds' Board of Directors approved
a change in the Sub-administrator from Chase Global Funds Service Company to SEI
Investments Mutual Funds Services.

        D. Custodian: The Chase Manhattan Bank is custodian for the Portfolio's
assets and the assets are held in accordance with the custodian agreement.

        E. Distribution Services: UAM Fund Distributors, Inc. (the
"Distributor"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of UAM, distributes the shares of the
Portfolio. The Distributor does not receive any fee or other compensation with
respect to the Portfolio.

        F. Directors' Fees: Each Director, who is not an officer or affiliated
person, receives $2,000 per meeting attended plus reimbursement of expenses
incurred in attending Board meetings, which is allocated proportionally among
the active portfolios of UAM Funds, plus a quarterly retainer of $150 for each
active portfolio of the UAM Funds.

        G. Purchases and Sales: For the six months ended April 30, 2000, the
Portfolio made purchases of $14,045,995 and sales of $44,666,572 of investment
securities other than long-term U.S. Government and short-term securities. There
were no purchases or sales of long-term U.S. Government securities.

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

        H. Line of Credit: The Portfolio, along with certain other portfolios of
UAM Funds, collectively entered into an agreement which enables them to
participate in a $100 million unsecured line of credit with several banks.
Borrowings will be made solely to temporarily finance the repurchase of capital
shares. Interest is charged to each participating portfolio based on its
borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%. In
addition, a commitment fee of 0.08% per annum, payable at the end of each
calendar quarter, is accrued by each participating portfolio based on its
average daily unused portion of the line of credit. During the six months ended
April 30, 2000, the Portfolio had no borrowings under the agreement.

        I. Other: At April 30, 2000, 66% of total shares outstanding were held
by 4 record shareholders each owning 10% or greater of the aggregate total
shares outstanding.
