DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
The management of Kiewit Mutual Fund is pleased to report to you on the
Fund's activity for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
During third quarter 1997, Kiewit Investment Management Corp., the
Fund's adviser, made strategic changes to improve the quality, diversification,
and liquidity of the Kiewit Mutual Fund Portfolios. The Adviser also made
structural changes in each Portfolio to reduce return divergences from the
specific benchmark used. The NAVs of the fixed-income Portfolios were raised to
approximately $10/share late in third quarter 1997 through a 1-for-5 reverse
stock split. This change allows for better visibility of the Portfolios' price
fluctuations and reduces rounding error associated with shareholder
transactions. The Portfolios maintain minimal cash positions so that the
Portfolios fully participate in market movements and behave in a similar fashion
to their fully-invested performance benchmarks. The portfolio turnover rates
were abnormally high during the current fiscal year due to substantial portfolio
restructurings that were necessary. Going forward, portfolio turnover is likely
to be modest.
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO: During third quarter 1997, the adviser made a
policy decision to purchase only first-tier Money Market Securities. The Adviser
continues to find good value in commercial paper, maintains an average maturity
of typically 30-40 days, and performs extensive credit analysis in compliance
with SEC Rule 2a-7.
SHORT-TERM GOVERNMENT PORTFOLIO: During third quarter 1997, the
holdings of U.S. Treasuries were increased to approximately 90% of the
Portfolio's market value, thereby raising the Portfolio's average quality.
Holdings of federal agency securities were reduced accordingly. By consolidating
positions down to 10-15 securities, the overall liquidity of the Portfolio was
enhanced. Only noncallable securities are held in the Portfolio. The high
quality and excellent liquidity of the Portfolio has been maintained, with
approximately 85% of the Portfolio currently invested in U.S. Treasuries and
approximately 15% of the Portfolio currently invested in federal agency
securities. The cash position is minimal.
INTERMEDIATE-TERM BOND PORTFOLIO: At the end of third quarter 1997, the
benchmark for the Kiewit Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio was changed from the
Lehman Brothers Intermediate-Term Corporate Bond Index to the Lehman Brothers
Intermediate-Term Government/Corporate Bond Index. This move raised the average
quality and overall liquidity of the benchmark. The Portfolio was adjusted
accordingly and now offers top quality, excellent liquidity, and a
well-diversified mix of securities. The Portfolio's holdings of U.S. Government
securities were increased substantially (to approximately 75% from approximately
15%), while its corporate securities exposure was reduced significantly (from
approximately 85% to approximately 25%). The high quality and excellent
liquidity of the Portfolio has been maintained since the aforementioned
restructuring. The cash position is minimal.
TAX-EXEMPT PORTFOLIO: Due to large shareholder liquidations, the
Tax-Exempt Portfolio ceased operations in April 1998.
EQUITY PORTFOLIO: During the third quarter of 1997, the Equity
Portfolio was substantially restructured to provide better diversification, more
exposure to large-capitalization stocks, and reduced performance differentials
vis-a-vis the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index. The Portfolio now holds
approximately 300 stocks as compared to approximately 65 stocks previously. The
Portfolio offers excellent diversification across a wide variety of industry
sectors. Since the restructuring, portfolio turnover has been minimal. The cash
position is typically less than 1% of the Portfolio's total market value.
INVESTMENT RESULTS*
The investment results reported in the charts contained in this letter
are measured from December 6, 1994 (the date the Fund's registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933 became effective), except for the Kiewit Equity
Portfolio which commenced operations on January 5, 1995. However, the portions
of the annual report following this letter show the financial operation,
condition and results of each Portfolio from inception through the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1998.**
The Money Market Portfolio's total return for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1998 was 5.61%. That return consisted of income distributions
(dividends) of $0.05 per share. The Portfolio's yield and return compare
favorably with competing funds. The Portfolio is currently ranked #2 in the
taxable money-market fund universe tracked by Kiplinger's Personal Finance
Magazine (July 1998 edition) based on recent 30-day yield.In total return
comparisons, the Portfolio is ranked #3 out of 215 First &Second Tier Money
Market Funds - Retail by IBC's Money Market Insight and is ranked #4 out of 299
Taxable Money-Market Instrument Funds - Retail by Lipper Analytical
Services,Inc. Both of the aforementioned total return rankings are based on
12-month total return through June 30, 1998.***

The Short-Term Government Portfolio's total return for the fiscal year
was 6.33%. That return consisted of an increase in net asset value of $0.06 per
share, income distributions (dividends) of $0.55 per share and realized gain
distribution of $0.01 per share. The Portfolio's return compares to the 6.78%
total return reported for the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Government Bond Index
over the same period. The Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Government Bond Index is a
total return performance benchmark consisting of U.S. Treasury and federal
agency with maturities from one to three years. Following is a chart that
presents the performance of the Portfolio and the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year
Government Bond Index since the Portfolio's effective date on December 6, 1994
through June 30, 1998. The Portfolio currently has a 4-(STAR) rating from

The Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio's total return for the fiscal year
was 8.68%. That return consisted of an increase in net asset value of $0.25 per
share, income distributions (dividends) of $0.59 per share and realized gain
distribution of $0.03 per share. The Portfolio's return compares to 9.05% total
return of the Lehman Brothers Intermediate-Term Corporate Index (old benchmark)
and the 8.54% total return of the Lehman Brothers' Intermediate-Term
Government/Corporate Bond Index (new benchmark) over the same period. The change
of the Portfolio's benchmark reflects the higher percentage of Portfolio assets
now invested in government bonds. The Lehman Brothers Intermediate-Term
Corporate Bond Index is a total return performance benchmark consisting of
publicly-issued, investment-grade corporate bonds with remaining maturities from
1-10 years. The Lehman Brothers Intermediate-Term Government/Corporate Bond
Index is a total return performance benchmark consisting of publicly-issued U.S.
Treasuries, federal agencies, and investment-grade corporate bonds with
remaining maturities of 1-10 years. Below is a chart that presents the
performance of the Portfolio, the Lehman Brothers' Intermediate-Term Corporate

That return consisted of a decrease in net asset value of $1.84 per share,
income distributions (dividends) of $0.16 per share and realized gain
distribution of $6.36 per share. The Portfolio's return compares to the 30.16%

Since the Portfolio restructuring in third quarter 1997, the
Portfolio's performance has closely tracked the behavior of the respective
performance benchmark. For the 10/1/97-6/30/98 period, the figures are as
follows:

Short-Term Government Portfolio .......... 4.58% 4.72%

Please note that the performance benchmarks (i.e., the Lehman Brothers'
indices and the S&P 500) are unmanaged statistical compilations, and, unlike the
Kiewit Portfolios, have no associated management expenses. For the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1998, Kiewit Investment Management Corp., the investment manager
of each Portfolio, agreed to waive all or a portion of its advisory fee and to
assume certain fund expenses (excluding taxes, extraordinary expenses, brokerage
commissions and interest) in order to limit annual operating expenses to not
more than the following percentages of the average daily net assets of the
Portfolios: Money Market Portfolio 0.20%; Short-Term Government Portfolio 0.30%;
Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio 0.50%; and Equity Portfolio 0.80%. These
limitations aided the competitive returns of each Portfolio.
MARKET REVIEW AND OUTLOOK
The U.S. financial markets rallied strongly during the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1998. The U.S. stock market, as represented by the S&P 500 Stock
Index, posted a 30.16% total return for the one-year period. The U.S. bond
market, as represented by the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, recorded a
10.54% total return over the same period. Cash investments provided a stable
income return of approximately 5.50% over the past fiscal year. All of these
figures are well above the historical norms for each respective market.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, interest rates fell 90-115
basis points in most maturities. Falling inflation, perceptions of deflation
from Asian market turmoil, collapsing commodity prices, a strong U.S. dollar,
fiscal restraint (and related cutbacks in Treasury issuance), and a stable Fed
supported the bond market rally. U.S. stocks advanced, albeit with an October
1997 setback, thanks to a strong U.S. economy, low inflation, earnings growth,
extraordinary capital flows (both domestic and foreign) into U.S. stocks,
mergers/acquisitions/stock buybacks, and falling interest rates.
The Federal budget deficit shrank to $22 billion in fiscal year 1997
from $111 billion in fiscal year 1996. A surplus of $40-$50 billion is expected
for fiscal year 1998. Consequently, new issuance of U.S. Treasury securities has
fallen sharply. A strong U.S. dollar combined with high "real" short-term U.S.
interest rates to attract foreign capital into our bond market. Foreign
inflation and foreign interest rates generally fell during the fiscal year.

<PAGE>
Fed policy was stable during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998. The
federal funds rate has been held steady at 5.50%. The Fed removed its asymmetric
bias to raise interest rates at its December 1997 meeting, then reinstated the
bias at its March 1998 meeting. Broad money growth has been strong for over two
years now. This abundance of liquidity will continue to support economic growth
and financial market advances in the U.S. Excessive money growth eventually
pushes inflation upward. Indeed, we are already witnessing inflation in tangible
asset prices (e.g., real estate) and financial asset prices.
Looking ahead, the balance of 1998 is likely to bring modest economic
growth with low inflation. The environment for financial assets continues to be
good. The U.S. bond market is likely to post mediocre returns over the balance
of 1998 because a tight labor market and a highly valued U.S. stock market will
preclude the Fed from any policy eases. The returns on the U.S. stock market are
likely to moderate significantly from the blistering first-half pace. A healthy
U.S. economy, low inflation, low interest rates, merger/acquisition activity,
share repurchases, and excess global liquidity should continue to support the
U.S. stock market.
While our outlook is optimistic, we are cognizant of several dangers.
First, wage pressures may build as job growth continues and the unemployment
rate falls further. This may lead to higher inflation and higher interest rates.
Second, excessive money growth is likely, at some point, to push reported
inflation higher. Third, earnings growth is slowing, which may inhibit stock
market gains. Finally, investor optimism is dangerously high and speculation in
specific market sectors (e.g., internet-related stocks) is rampant. A lot of
good news is already "priced into" the U.S. financial markets. Investors'
expectations regarding returns on financial assets are in desperate need of a
downward adjustment. Despite these dangers and the inherent volatility in
financial markets, we remain optimistic as long-term investors.
Sincerely,
(/S/ Livingston G. Douglas)

KIEWIT MUTUAL FUND
- ------------------
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND. The Kiewit Mutual Fund (the "Fund") is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") as an open-end
management investment company organized as a Delaware business trust on June
1, 1994. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to establish
additional series, each of which is a separate class of shares. The Fund
comprises five series of shares: Kiewit Money Market Portfolio, Kiewit
Government Money Market Portfolio, Kiewit Short-Term Government Portfolio,
Kiewit Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio, and Kiewit Equity Portfolio (each, a
"Portfolio" and collectively, the "Portfolios"). As of June 30, 1998, the
Kiewit Government Money Market Portfolio has not yet commenced operations.
Prior to December 6, 1994, the Fund was known as the Kiewit Institutional
Fund.
Effective March 1, 1997, the Portfolios adopted a Master/Feeder
configuration, hereafter referred to as the "Conversion," through the
contribution of the investment securities held as of February 28, 1997 at
market value to a corresponding series ("Series") of Kiewit Investment Trust
(the "Trust"). In return for the contributed securities, each Portfolio
received an ownership interest of equal value in its corresponding Series of
the Trust.
On September 25, 1997, the Kiewit Short-Term Government Portfolio and Kiewit
Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio declared a 1 for 5 reverse stock split,
whereby the shareholders of the Kiewit Short-Term Government Portfolio and
the Kiewit Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio received one share for each five
shares held.
The investment objectives of the five Portfolios are as follows: Money Market
Portfolio is to provide high current income while maintaining a stable share
price; Government Money Market Portfolio is to provide high current income
while maintaining a stable share price; Short-Term Government Portfolio is to
provide investors with as high a level of current income as is consistent
with the maintenance of principal and liquidity; Intermediate-Term Bond
Portfolio is to provide as high a level of current income consistent with
reasonable risk; Equity Portfolio is to achieve long-term capital
appreciation. Unlike other investment companies which directly acquire and
manage their own portfolio of securities, each Portfolio seeks to achieve its
investment objective by investing all of its investable assets in a
corresponding series of shares of the Trust, an open-end, management
investment company that issues series of shares (individually and
collectively, the "Series") having the same investment objective, policies
and limitations as each of the Portfolios. As of June 30, 1998, each
Portfolio owned virtually 100% of the ownership interest in its corresponding
Series. The performance of the Portfolios is directly affected by the
performance of the Series. The financial statements of the Trust, including
the Schedules of Investments, are included elsewhere in this report and
should be read in conjunction with the Fund's Financial Statements.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. The following is a summary of the
significant accounting policies of the Fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Valuation of each Portfolio is based on the underlying
securities held in the corresponding Series. Each Portfolio is allocated its
portion of the Series' securities market value based upon its ownership
interest in the Series. Securities held by the Series which are listed on a
securities exchange and for which market quotations are available are valued
at the last quoted sale price of the day or, if there is no such reported
sale, securities are valued at the mean between the most recent quoted bid
and asked prices. Price information for listed securities is taken from the
exchange where the security is primarily traded. Unlisted securities for
which market quotations are readily available are valued at the most recent
bid prices. Securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value, unless the Trust's
Board of Trustees determines that this does not represent fair value. The
Money Market Series values securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation
method which is permitted under Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This method
involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter
adjusting for amortization of premium or accretion of discount to maturity.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Each Portfolio is treated as a separate entity for
Federal income tax purposes and each intends to qualify as a "regulated
investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code"), and to distribute all of its
taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax
provision is required. At June 30, 1998, the Money Market Portfolio had a net
tax basis capital loss carryforward available to offset future net capital
gains of approximately $4,000, which will expire as follows.

KIEWIT MUTUAL FUND
- ------------------
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED
================================================================================
INVESTMENT INCOME AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. The Portfolios record
their share of the respective Series' income, expenses and realized and
unrealized gains and losses daily. Additionally, each Portfolio records its
own expenses as incurred. Distributions to shareholders of each Portfolio,
except Kiewit Equity Portfolio, are declared daily from net investment income
and paid to shareholders monthly. The Fund's policy is to distribute
substantially all net income from the Kiewit Equity Portfolio annually.
Distributions of net capital gains realized by each Portfolio will be made
annually.
DEFERRED ORGANIZATION COSTS. Organization costs incurred by each Portfolio
have been deferred and are being amortized using the straight-line method
over a five-year period beginning on the date that each Portfolio commenced
operations. In the event that any of the initial shares of a Portfolio are
redeemed during the amortization period by any holder thereof, the redemption
proceeds will be reduced by any unamortized organization expenses in the same
proportion as the number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the number
of initial shares outstanding at the time of such redemption.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, cash
contributed to (additions) and cash withdrawn from (reductions) the
respective Series were as follows:
MONEY SHORT-TERM INTERMEDIATE-
MARKET GOVERNMENT TERM BOND EQUITY

Reductions .. (3,004,989,325) (248,900,910) (203,882,068) (19,204,547)
4. MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
Kiewit Investment Management Corp. ("KIMC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Kiewit Construction Company, serves as the investment manager to each Series
of the Trust. KIMC provides the Trust with records concerning KIMC's
activities which the Trust is required to maintain and renders regular
reports to the Trust's officers and the Board of Trustees. KIMC also selects
brokers and dealers to effect securities transactions. Under the investment
management agreement between KIMC and the Trust on behalf of each Series, the
monthly fees of the Series are at the following annual rates of their average
monthly net assets: Kiewit Money Market Series 0.20%; Kiewit Short-Term
Government Series 0.30%; Kiewit Intermediate-Term Bond Series 0.40%; and
Kiewit Equity Series 0.70%. Although the Portfolios do not directly pay KIMC
for its services under the investment management agreement, each Portfolio
shares in its pro rata portion allocated from its corresponding Series. KIMC
has agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fee and assume certain
Portfolio operating expenses (excluding taxes, extraordinary expenses,
brokerage commissions and interest) in an amount that will limit annual
operating expenses to not more than the following percentage of the average
daily net assets of each Portfolio: Money Market Portfolio - 0.20%,
Short-Term Government Portfolio - 0.30%; Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio -
0.50%; and Equity Portfolio - 0.80%. These undertakings may be amended or
rescinded at any time in the future.
The Fund has entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with KIMC.
Pursuant to this agreement, KIMC performs various services, including:
supervision of the services provided by the Fund's custodian, transfer and
dividend disbursing agent and others who provide services to the Fund for the
benefit of the Portfolios; providing shareholders with information about the
Portfolios and their investment as they or the Fund may request; assisting
the Portfolios in conducting meetings of the shareholders; furnishing
information as the Board of Trustees may require regarding the corresponding
Series; and any other administrative services for the benefit of the
Portfolio as the Board of Trustees may reasonably request. For its services,
each Portfolio pays KIMC a monthly fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.02% of the
Portfolio's average net assets.

plus $250 per Portfolio per meeting attended, plus travel expenses in
connection with meetings. Certain officers and trustees of the Fund are also
officers and/or directors of KIMC.
5. SPECIAL SHAREHOLDER MEETING. On March 31, 1998, KIMC became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Kiewit Construction Company. This change of ownership of KIMC
required a Special Meeting of Shareholders, held on March 31, 1998, whereupon
each Portfolio's shareholders approved a new investment advisory agreement
with KIMC, on behalf of the respective Series. The terms of the new
investment advisory agreements are substantially identical to those of the
previous advisory agreements, and the change of ownership of KIMC is not
expected to have a material effect on the investment advisory services that
KIMC provides to the Series.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
================================================================================
To the Trustees and Shareholders of Kiewit Mutual Fund:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the
financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Kiewit Money Market Portfolio, Kiewit Short-Term Government
Portfolio, Kiewit Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio and Kiewit Equity
Portfolio (four of the series constituting Kiewit Mutual Fund, hereafter
referred to as the "Fund") at June 30, 1998, the results of each of their
operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets
for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial
highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of
the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

KIEWIT INVESTMENT TRUST
- -----------------------
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
================================================================================
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST. The Kiewit Investment Trust (the "Trust") is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") as an
open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware business trust
on January 23, 1997. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to
establish additional series, each of which is a separate class of shares. The
Trust comprises five series of shares: Kiewit Money Market Series, Kiewit
Government Money Market Series, Kiewit Short-Term Government Series, Kiewit
Intermediate-Term Bond Series, and Kiewit Equity Series (individually and
collectively referred to as "Series"). As of June 30, 1998, the Kiewit
Government Money Market Series has not yet commenced operations. The
investment objectives of the five Series are as follows: Money Market Series
is to provide high current income while maintaining a stable share price.
Short-Term Government Series is to provide investors with as high a level of
current income as is consistent with the maintenance of principal and
liquidity; Intermediate-Term Bond Series is to provide as high a level of
current income as is consistent with reasonable risk; and the Equity Series
is to achieve long-term capital appreciation.
The Trust commenced operations on March 1, 1997. Each Series of the Trust
received a contribution of investment securities from a corresponding
Portfolio of Kiewit Mutual Fund (the "Fund") in exchange for an ownership
interest in the Series of equal value.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. The following is a summary of the
significant accounting policies of the Trust. The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities held by the Series which are listed on a
securities exchange and for which market quotations are available are valued
at the last quoted sale price of the day or, if there is no such reported
sale, securities are valued at the mean between the most recent quoted bid
and asked prices. Price information for listed securities is taken from the
exchange where the security is primarily traded. Unlisted securities for
which market quotations are readily available are valued at the most recent
bid prices. Securities with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value, unless the Trust's
Board of Trustees determines that this does not represent fair value. The
Money Market Series values securities utilizing the amortized cost valuation
method which is permitted under Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. This method
involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter
adjusting for amortization of premium or accretion of discount to maturity.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Each Series is treated as a partnership entity for
Federal income tax purposes. Any interest, dividends and gains or losses of a
Series will be deemed to have been "passed through" to each partner.
Accordingly, no tax provision is recorded for the Trust Series.
INVESTMENT INCOME. All of the net investment income (loss) and realized and
unrealized gains and losses from the security transactions are allocated pro
rata among the investors in the Series on a daily basis.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. Each Series, through the Trust's custodian, receives
delivery of the underlying securities used to collateralize the repurchase
agreements, the market value of which is required to be in an amount at least
equal to 102% of the resale price. Kiewit Investment Management Corp.
("KIMC"), the Trust Manager, is responsible for determining that the market
value of these underlying securities is maintained at a level at least equal
to 102% of the resale price. In the event of default of the obligation to
repurchase, the Trust has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the
proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Provisions of each agreement
require that the market value of the collateral is sufficient in the event of
default; however, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to
the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject
to legal proceedings.
CALL AND PUT OPTIONS. The Short-Term Government Series, Intermediate-Term
Bond Series and the Equity Series each may write and/ or purchase
exchange-traded call options and purchase exchange-traded put options on
securities in the Series. When a Series writes a call option, an amount equal
to the premium received is reflected as a liability. The amount of the
liability is subsequently "marked to market" to reflect the current market
value of the option written. If an option which a Series has written expires
on its stipulated expiration date, or if a Series enters into a closing
purchase transaction, the Series realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of the
closing transaction exceeds the premium received when the option is sold),
and the liability related to such option is extinguished. If a call option
which a Series has written is exercised, the Series realizes a gain or loss
from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from which are
increased by the premium originally received.

KIEWIT INVESTMENT TRUST
- -----------------------
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED
================================================================================
FUTURES TRANSACTIONS. Certain Portfolios may enter into futures contracts
subject to certain limitations.Upon entering into a futures contract, the
Portfolio is required to deposit cash or pledge U.S.Government securities as
margin. Subsequent payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in
the value of the underlying security or securities, are made or received by
the Portfolio each day (daily variation margin) and are recorded as
unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are closed. When the contracts
are closed, the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the
difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and
the Portfolio's basis in the contracts. Risks of entering into futures
contracts include the possibility that there will not be a perfect price
correlation between the futures contracts and the underlying securities, and
that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary
market, resulting in an inability to close a futures position prior to its
maturity date. The purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that a
Portfolio could lose more than the original margin deposit required to
initiate a futures transaction up to the amount of the contract.
OTHER. Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date
basis. Each Series uses the specific identification method for determining
realized gain and loss on investments for both financial and Federal income
tax reporting purposes.
3. INVESTMENT SECURITIES. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, purchases
and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term investments)
aggregated as follows:

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, the Short-Term Government Series
and the Intermediate-Term Bond Series had not entered into any option
contracts.
4. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. The Trust, on behalf
of each Series, employs KIMC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kiewit
Construction Company, to furnish investment advisory and other services to
the Trust. Pursuant to an investment management agreement with the Trust with
respect to each Series, KIMC manages the investment and reinvestment of their
assets, provides the Trust with records concerning KIMC's activities which
the Trust is required to maintain, and renders regular reports to the Trust
officers and the Board of Trustees.
For its services under the investment management agreement for each Series,
KIMC receives fees from the Series at the following annual rates of their
average monthly net assets. Money Market Series - 0.20%; Short-Term
Government Series - 0.30%; Intermediate-Term Bond Series - 0.40%; and Equity
Series - 0.70%.

KIEWIT INVESTMENT TRUST
- -----------------------
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED
================================================================================
KIMC has agreed to waive all or a portion of its management fee and assume
certain fund expenses in an amount that will limit annual operating expenses
(excluding taxes, extraordinary expenses, brokerage commissions and interest)
to not more than the following percentage of the average daily net assets of
each Kiewit Mutual Fund Portfolio: Money Market Portfolio - 0.20%, Short-Term
Government Portfolio - 0.30%; Intermediate-Term Bond Portfolio - 0.50%; and
Equity Portfolio - 0.80%. These undertakings may be amended or rescinded at
any time in the future.
The following table summarizes the management fees for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1998:
GROSS MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT

------------------------------
Money Market Series ................. $983,634 $519,887
Short-Term Government Series ........ 437,024 272,381
Intermediate-Term Bond Series ....... 579,830 115,748
Equity Series ....................... 695,586 126,953
Effective January 5, 1998, PFPC Inc. ("PFPC"), an indirect wholly-owned
subsidiary of PNC Bank Corp., a multi-bank holding company, serves as
Administrator to the Trust and Fund pursuant to separate Administration
Agreements with the Fund and the Trust. As Administrator, PFPC is responsible
for service such as financial reporting, compliance monitoring and corporate
management. For the services provided, PFPC receives a monthly administration
fee from the Trust, on behalf of each Series. Each Series pays a
proportionate share of a complex-wide annual fee of 0.015% of the Trust's
aggregate total average daily net assets in excess of $125 million. This
asset based fee is determined on a total average daily net asset basis, and
is subject to prescribed minimums. Prior to January 5, 1998, Rodney Square
Management Corp. ("RSMC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wilmington Trust
Company ("WTC"), served as Administrator to the Trust and Fund. RSMC was
compensated by the Fund at the same rate of compensation that PFPC receives.
Effective January 5, 1998, PNC Bank, N.A. serves as custodian to the Fund and
the Trust. Prior to January 5, 1998, WTC served as custodian of the assets of
the Trust.
Effective January 5, 1998, PFPC determines the net asset value of each Series
and provides accounting services to the Trust pursuant an Accounting Services
Agreement with the Trust on behalf of each Series. For its services, PFPC
receives from the Trust, on behalf of each Series, the Series' proportionate
share of a complex-wide annual fee of 0.015% of the Trust's aggregate total
average daily net assets in excess of $100 million. This asset-based fee is
determined on a total average daily net asset basis, and is subject to
prescribed fixed minimums. Prior to January 5, 1998, RSMC provided accounting
services to the Trust, and was compensated by the Fund at the same rates of
compensation that PFPC receives.
Independent Trustees are each paid an annual fee of $5,000 from the Trust,
plus $250 per Series per meeting attended, plus travel expenses in connection
with meetings. Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are also officers
and/or directors of KIMC.

opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits, which included confirmation of securities at June 30, 1998 by
correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.
