PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
================================================================================
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Over the last six months the U.S. economy has experienced a rapid increase
in energy prices and three interest rate increases yet has still managed to post
strong overall growth and modest inflation levels. At the wholesale level oil
prices have more than doubled since January 1999 and, as a result, consumer
prices for gasoline, fuel oil, etc., have risen dramatically. Twenty years ago,
this rate of increase was partially responsible for a recession. More recently,
gas price increases are mere irritants. This is because of the muted position of
the energy sector within overall economic activity in the United States. In 1980
the energy sector comprised 8.5% of total economic activity. Today that ratio is
3%. Certainly, the energy price advance will have a near term impact on
inflation. But, it is not likely to be severe and should dissipate as 2000
progresses.
In response to a rise in inflation, however modest, and an ongoing strong
economic growth rate, the Federal Reserve (the "Fed") has engineered three
interest rate increases since the end of June. Their stated concern is that the
strong economy will interact with a tight labor market and thereby cause an
increase in wages and ultimately consumer prices, i.e., inflation. As of yet
there is little evidence of this inflationary spike. Compensation increases for
the twelve months ended in September averaged 4.6% compared with 5.6% one year
earlier. Moreover worker productivity is growing at a 3% pace. As a result, unit
labor costs (the cost of labor associated with the production of goods and
services) are growing at a very modest pace, 1.5%. With this modest inflation
level it is easy to misunderstand the Fed's actions. The Fed is doing just what
it should be doing. It wants to be certain that inflation does not gain a
foothold in the U.S., which would cause much greater pain in the future.
Our expectations for next year are for more of the same for the U.S.
economy. Due to ongoing strength in consumer and business spending, and renewed
strength in our foreign sector, economic growth should average 3% to 3.5% next
year. Inflation rates could rise modestly early next year as a result of energy
prices but continued positive forces in worker productivity and worldwide
competition should keep inflation in the 2% to 2.5% range. Interest rates will
continue to be buffeted by both of these forces and will probably rise into
early 2000. But, as economic activity settles in at a more subdued 3% to 3.5%
pace, and as inflation remains under control, the Fed should move to the
sidelines. Thus, an early 2000 interest rate hike is likely but we believe that
none will be necessary thereafter in 2000. Long-term interest rates have largely
anticipated the next interest rate hike and should not rise further. It is our
expectation that long-term interest rates will end 2000 at lower levels than
currently.
We invite your comments and questions and thank you for your investments in
the Wilmington Money Market Portfolios. We look forward to reviewing our
investment outlook and strategy with you in our next report to shareholders.
Sincerely,
/S/ ROBERT J. CHRISTIAN
Robert J. Christian
February 23, 2000 President

WILMINGTON FUNDS -- MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS
- -------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
================================================================================
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND. Wilmington Prime Money Market Portfolio, Wilmington
U.S. Government Portfolio, and Wilmington Tax-Exempt Portfolio (each a
"Portfolio" and collectively the "Portfolios") are series of WT Mutual Fund
(the "Fund"). The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940
(the "1940 Act") as an open-end management investment company and was
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. These financial statements and related notes
pertain only to the Portfolios. Information regarding other series of the
Fund are contained in separate reports to their shareholders.
Unlike other investment companies which directly acquire and manage their own
portfolio of securities, effective November 1, 1999, each Portfolio seeks to
achieve its investment objective by investing all of its investable assets in
the corresponding series of WT Investment Trust I (the "Series") having the
same investment objective, policies and limitations as the Portfolio. The
performance of each Portfolio is directly affected by the performance of its
corresponding Series. The financial statements of the Series, including their
Schedules of Investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be
read in conjunction with the Portfolios' financial statements.
Information presented for periods prior to November 1, 1999 reflects the
operating results of predecessor mutual funds (see Note 5).
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. The following is a summary of the
significant accounting policies of the Portfolios:
VALUATION OF INVESTMENT IN SERIES. Valuation of each Portfolio's investment
in the Series is based on the underlying securities held by the Series. Each
Portfolio is allocated its portion of the Series' securities market value
based on its ownership interest in the Series. Valuation of securities held
by the Series is discussed in the notes to the Series' financial statements.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES. Each Portfolio is treated as a separate entity for
Federal income tax purposes and intends to continue qualifying as a
"regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and to distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt
income to its shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is
required. At June 30, 1999, Wilmington Prime Money Market Portfolio,
Wilmington U.S. Government Portfolio and Wilmington Tax-Exempt Portfolio had
a net tax basis capital loss carryforward available to offset future net
capital gains of approximately $37,000, $6,000 and $2,000, respectively,
which will expire as follows:
CAPITAL LOSS EXPIRATION
CARRYFORWARD DATE
---------------------------
Wilmington Prime Money Market Portfolio $21,000 06/30/2002
Wilmington Prime Money Market Portfolio 15,000 06/30/2005
Wilmington Prime Money Market Portfolio 1,000 06/30/2006
Wilmington U.S. Government Portfolio 6,000 06/30/2003
Wilmington Tax-Exempt Portfolio 2,000 06/30/2002
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements.

WILMINGTON FUNDS -- MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS
- -------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) -- 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 the Portfolios are
declared daily from net investment income and paid to shareholders monthly.
For the Tax-Exempt Portfolio only, the tax-exempt portion of each dividend is
determined uniformly, based on the ratio of the Portfolio's tax-exempt and
taxable income, if any, for the entire fiscal year. Distributions from net
realized gains, if any, will be declared and paid annually.
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 amounts 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 six-month period ended December 31, 1999,
contributions to and withdrawals from the Series were as follows:
Prime U.S.
Money Market Government Tax-Exempt
-------------- ------------- -------------
Contributions $2,457,652,524 $ 971,681,197 $ 640,027,389
Withdrawals (512,836,687) (315,683,707) (165,903,958)
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. The investment advisor to the
Series is Rodney Square Management Corporation ("RSMC"). Advisery fees
charged to the Series are discussed in the notes to the Series financial
statements. Prior to November 1, 1999, RSMC served as investment adviser to
the Rodney Square Funds (See Note 5) under substantially similar terms.
PFPC, Inc. ("PFPC"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of PNC Bank Corp., a
multi-bank holding company, provides administrative and accounting services
to the Fund.
PFPC also serves as transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent of the Fund
pursuant to a separate Transfer Agency Agreement with the Fund on behalf of
the Portfolios.
5. FUND MERGER. Effective November 1, 1999, the Wilmington Prime Money Market
Portfolio, Wilmington U.S. Government Portfolio, and Wilmington Tax-Exempt
Portfolio (the "Wilmington Portfolios") acquired all of the assets and
assumed all of the liabilities of the Rodney Square Money Market Portfolio,
Rodney Square U.S. Government Portfolio, and Rodney Square Tax-Exempt Fund
(the "Rodney Square Funds"), respectively, each an open-end management
company, pursuant to separate Plans of Reorganization (the
"Reorganizations"). The shareholders of the Rodney Square Funds received
shares of the respective Wilmington Portfolios equal to the number and
aggregate net asset value of their shares in the Rodney Square Funds.
The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements.

The Reorganizations were treated as non-taxable events and accordingly the
Wilmington Portfolios' basis in the securities acquired reflects the
historical cost basis as of the date of transfer. The net assets and net
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of the Rodney Square Funds as of

WT INVESTMENT TRUST I -- MONEY MARKET SERIES
- --------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
================================================================================
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST. Prime Money Market Series, U.S. Government Series,
and Tax-Exempt Series (the "Series") are series of WT Investment Trust I (the
"Trust"). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940
(the "1940 Act") as an open-end management investment company and was
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. These financial statements and related notes
pertain only to the Series. Information regarding other series of the Trust
are contained in separate reports to their investors.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. The following is a summary of the
significant accounting policies of the Series:
SECURITY VALUATION. Each 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
the Series will be deemed to have been "passed through" to each partner.
Accordingly, no tax provision is recorded for the Series.
INVESTMENT INCOME. All of the net investment income and realized and
unrealized gains and losses from 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 which is required to be in an amount at least
equal to 101% of the resale price. Rodney Square Management Corporation
("RSMC"), the Series' investment adviser, is responsible for determining that
the market value of these underlying securities is maintained at all times at
a level at least equal to 101% of the resale price. In the event of default
of the obligation to repurchase, each Series 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.
OTHER. Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date
basis. The Series use the specific identification method for determining
realized gain and loss on investments for both financial and Federal income
tax reporting purposes. Common expenses of the Trust are allocated on a pro
rata basis among the series based on relative net assets.
Obligations of agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. Government are not
direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury and thus may or may not be backed by
the "full faith and credit" of the United States. Payment of interest and
principal on these obligations, although generally backed directly or
indirectly by the U.S. Government, may be backed solely by the issuing
instrumentality.

WT INVESTMENT TRUST I -- MONEY MARKET SERIES
- --------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) -- CONTINUED
================================================================================
Approximately, 62.5% of the investments by the Tax-Exempt Series on December
31, 1999, were insured by private issuers that guarantee payments of
principal and interest in the event of default or were backed by letters of
credit issued by domestic and foreign banks or financial institutions.
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 amounts 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. ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. RSMC, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Wilmington Trust Company ("WTC"), which is wholly owned by
Wilmington Trust Corporation, provides investment advisory services to each
Series. For its services, RSMC receives a fee of 0.47% of the Series' first
$1 billion of average daily net assets; 0.43% of the Series' next $500
million of average daily net assets; 0.40% of the Series' next $500 million
of average daily net assets; and 0.37% of the Series' average daily net
assets in excess of $2 billion.
PFPC, Inc. ("PFPC"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of PNC Bank Corp., a
multi-bank holding company, provides administrative and accounting services
to the Trust.
WTC serves as custodian to the Trust and PFPC Trust Company serves as
sub-custodian to the Trust.
