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 Balanced Portfolio for the six month
period ended April 30, 2000.

For this six month period, the C & B Balanced Portfolio underperformed its
benchmark index. This Index consists of a blended return of 60% of the S&P 500
Index and 40% of the Lehman Government/Corporate Bond Index. Over this period,
the C & B Balanced Portfolio declined -0.10% versus 5.06% for the benchmark
index. Given our "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 C & B
style nor inconsistent with the firm's philosophy.

As of April 30, 2000, common stocks represented 62% of the Fund, bonds were 31%
and cash reserves were 7%.

Equity Only Analysis

We believe that our equity investment philosophy and process is designed to
produce competitive results during rising markets and strong relative results in
flat and down periods.

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 equity portion of the Portfolio
significantly outperformed the S&P 500 Index.

We feel that the strong fundamental characteristics of the companies held in the
equity portion of the C & B Balanced Portfolio should help to provide this
downside protection. The high quality characteristics that we seek, 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.

Fixed Income Only Analysis

C & B's fixed income philosophy is designed to seek the same pattern of results
as our equity philosophy. The return on the fixed income portion of the C & B
Balanced Portfolio mirrored the return on the Lehman Government/Corporate Bond
Index. The maturities are in line with the benchmark and the quality of the
holdings remains high.

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 Indices
                       ---------------------------------

Composite Index is a blended index which reflects 60% of the S&P 500 Index and
40% of the Lehman Government/Corporate Bond Index.

Lehman Intermediate Government/Corporate Index is an unmanaged index of bonds
with intermediate-term durations, including U.S. treasury bonds and bonds issued
by U.S. government agencies and quasi-federal corporation, and corporate debt
guaranteed by the U.S. government.

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 BALANCED 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 Balanced 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. Fixed income securities are stated on the basis of valuation
     provided by brokers and/or a pricing service which uses information with
     respect to transactions in fixed income securities, quotations from
     dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various
     relationships between securities in determining value. 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

UAM FUNDS                                              C & B BALANCED PORTFOLIO

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
     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. Discounts and premiums
     on securities purchased are amortized using the effective yield basis over
     their respective lives. 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 0.093% 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
$41,961, of which $19,389 was paid to SEI for their services, $6,745 to DST for
their services, and $4,486 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 $1,223,761 and sales of $8,160,055 of investment
securities other than long-term U.S. Government and short-term securities. There
were no purchases of U.S. Government securities. Sales of long-term U.S.
Government securities were $3,067,624.

     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
3 record shareholders each owning 10% or greater of the aggregate total shares
outstanding.
