LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

June 2005

 

Dennis H. Ferro
President and Chief
Executive Officer

 

Dear Shareholder,

We are pleased to provide the semiannual report for the Evergreen Managed Income Fund, which covers the six-month period ended April 30, 2005.

For investors in the Evergreen Managed Income Fund, the beginning of the reporting period coincided with a dramatic turnaround in the financial markets. Towards the beginning of the reporting period, the markets had been held back by uncertainty surrounding oil prices, the war on terrorism, monetary policy and the presidential election. Yet as clarity emerged concerning many of these issues, the markets finally responded favorably to the steady fundamentals, climbing higher in the waning weeks of 2004. However, typical of the recent trends, the financial markets resumed their volatile patterns upon entering 2005, a trend that would continue for the balance of the reporting period. Throughout this environment, the portfolio team for the fund based their investment decisions on the fundamentals supporting income opportunities within the high yield, international and adjustable rate segments of the fixed income market.

Economic growth had begun to moderate towards the end of the reporting period, and monthly economic reports were sending mixed signals to investors. For example, solid retail sales would be accompanied by weakness in consumer confidence. While the markets were sometimes perplexed by these incongruities, our investment strategy committee believed that this phenomenon was characteristic of the economy's transition from recovery to expansion. Despite this moderation in demand, the Federal Reserve (Fed) continued to raise its target for the federal funds rate. After three years of monetary stimulus, policymakers were on a path towards

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS continued

more moderate levels of economic growth. At times, the fixed income markets viewed the Fed with suspicion, fearing that monetary policy would ultimately constrain growth, yet we maintained our belief that the Fed's policy stance would continue to be one of less stimulation, rather than more restriction.

During periods of volatility within the fixed income markets, monetary policymakers seemingly went out of their way to assuage market anxiety. Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan was especially transparent in his public statements, yet market interest rates remained quite volatile, only to begin a gradual descent during the last two months of the reporting period. As the long-end of the Treasury Bond yield curve continued to decline, a debate ensued as to whether it signaled poor times ahead, or the market's belief that inflation was under control. In addition, Chairman Greenspan's biggest concern appeared to be the fact that despite the Fed's tighter stance, long-term market yields continued to decline. In testimony to congressional banking committees, he noted that it was a "conundrum" and warned of "complacency" within the fixed income markets. The infamous wordsmith achieved his desired objective for only a short while, though, and long-term yields once again resumed their decline.

Throughout the investment period, our portfolio teams for the fund maintained their focus on the fundamentals within their respective segments of the fixed income markets. For example, our high yield team emphasized income opportunities within the sectors benefiting from global demand, including Energy and Consumer

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS continued

Discretionary. The international team bought corporate and sovereign debt from commodity-rich countries such as Australia and New Zealand. Finally, within the adjustable rate portion of the fund, security selection played a large role in relation to performance, as income distributed to shareholders enhanced the total return component.

In this environment, we encourage investors to maintain a diversified strategy, including fixed income investments, for their long-term portfolios.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported herein. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

a. Valuation of investments

Portfolio debt securities acquired with more than 60 days to maturity are fair valued using matrix pricing methods determined by an independent pricing service which takes into consideration such factors as similar security prices, yields, maturities, liquidity and ratings. Securities for which valuations are not readily available from an independent pricing service may be valued by brokers which use prices provided by market makers or estimates of market value obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics.

Short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Investments in other mutual funds are valued at net asset value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or not reflective of current market value are valued at fair value as determined in good faith, according to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees.

b. Foreign currency translation

All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not separately account for that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments and the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses on securities.

c. Forward foreign currency contracts

A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date. The Fund enters into forward foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities and to attempt to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at the forward rate and marked-to-market daily. When the contracts are closed, realized gains and losses arising from such transactions are recorded as realized gains or losses on foreign currency related transactions. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably.

d. When-issued and delayed delivery transactions

The Fund records when-issued or delayed delivery securities as of trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities

24


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) continued

purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked-to-market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

e. Securities lending

The Fund may lend its securities to certain qualified brokers in order to earn additional income. The Fund receives compensation in the form of fees or interest earned on the investment of any cash collateral received. The Fund also continues to receive interest and dividends on the securities loaned. The Fund receives collateral in the form of cash or securities with a market value at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan, including accrued interest. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the borrower, the Fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the loaned securities or in gaining access to the collateral. The Fund has the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand.

f. Dollar roll transactions

The Fund may enter into dollar roll transactions with respect to mortgage-backed securities. In a dollar roll transaction, the Fund sells mortgage-backed securities to financial institutions and simultaneously agrees to accept substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities at a later date at an agreed upon price. The Fund will use the proceeds generated from the transactions to invest in short-term investments, which may enhance the Fund's current yield and total return. The Fund accounts for dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparty defaults on its obligation to perform under the terms of the agreement, if the Fund receives inferior securities in comparison to what was sold to the coun-terparty at redelivery or if there are variances in paydown speed between the mortgage-related pools.

g. Interest rate swaps

The Fund may enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage the Fund's exposure to interest rates. A swap agreement is an exchange of cash payments between the Fund and another party based on a notional principal amount. Cash payments or receipts are recorded as realized gains or losses. The value of the swap agreements is marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers and any change in value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. The Fund could be exposed to risks if the counterparty defaults on its obligation to perform or if there are unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates.

h. Security transactions and investment income

Security transactions are recorded on trade date. Realized gains and losses are computed using the specific cost of the security sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Foreign income and capital gains realized on some securities may be subject to foreign taxes, which are accrued as applicable.

25


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) continued

i. Federal taxes

The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income, including any net capital gains (which have already been offset by available capital loss carryovers). Accordingly, no provision for federal taxes is required.

j. Distributions

Distributions to common shareholders from net investment income and net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Such distributions are determined in conformity with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.

k. Reclassifications

Certain amounts in previous years' financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year's presentation.

2. ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Evergreen Investment Management Company, LLC ("EIMC"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Wachovia Corporation ("Wachovia"), is the investment advisor to the Fund and is paid an annual fee of 0.55% of the Fund's average daily total assets applicable to common shareholders. Total assets consists of the net assets of the Fund plus borrowings or other leverage for investment purposes to the extent excluded in calculating net assets. The advisory fee would be equivalent to 0.82% of the Fund's average daily net assets applicable to common shareholders if the fund is fully leveraged through the issuance of preferred shares and/or other borrowings. For the six months ended April 30, 2005, the Fund had preferred shares issued and outstanding.

Evergreen International Advisors, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Wachovia, is the investment sub-advisor to the foreign debt securities portion of the Fund and is paid by EIMC for its services to the Fund.

From time to time, EIMC may voluntarily or contractually waive its fee and/or reimburse expenses in order to limit operating expenses. During the six months ended April 30, 2005, EIMC reimbursed other expenses in the amount of $168.

Evergreen Investment Services, Inc. ("EIS"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Wachovia, is the administrator to the Fund. As administrator, EIS provides the Fund with facilities, equipment and personnel and is paid an administrative fee at an annual rate of 0.05% of the Fund's average daily total assets.

3. CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

The Fund has authorized capital of 100,000,000 common shares with no par value. For the six months ended April 30, 2005 and for the year ended October 31, 2004, the Fund did not issue any common shares.

During the six months ended April 30, 2005, the Fund loaned securities to certain brokers. At April 30, 2005, the value of securities on loan and the value of collateral amounted to $126,925,552 and $130,143,108, respectively.

At April 30, 2005, the Fund had the following open interest rate swap agreements:

1This rate represents the 1 month USD London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR) effective for the period of April 26, 
  2005 through May 26, 2005. 

On April 30, 2005, the aggregate cost of securities for federal income tax purposes was $1,331,514,876. The gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on securities based on tax cost was $25,651,452 and $19,633,983, respectively, with a net unrealized appreciation of $6,017,469.

5. AUCTION MARKET PREFERRED SHARES

The Fund has issued 16,000 Auction Market Preferred Shares ("Preferred Shares") consisting of five series, each with a liquidation value of $25,000 plus accumulated but unpaid dividends (whether or not earned or declared). Dividends on each series of Preferred Shares are cumulative at a rate which is reset based on the result of an auction. The annualized dividend rate was 2.54% during the six months ended April 30, 2005. The Fund will not declare, pay or set apart for payment any dividend to its common shareholders unless the Fund has declared and paid or contemporaneously declares and pays full cumulative dividends on each series of Preferred Shares through its most recent dividend payment date.

27


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited) continued

Each series of Preferred Shares is redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Fund on any dividend payment date at $25,000 per share plus any accumulated or unpaid dividends (whether or not earned or declared). Each series of Preferred Shares is also subject to mandatory redemption at $25,000 per share plus any accumulated or unpaid dividends (whether or not earned or declared) if the requirement relating to the asset coverage with respect to the outstanding Preferred Shares would be less than 200%.

The holders of Preferred Shares have voting rights equal to the holders of the Fund's common shares and will vote together with holders of common shares as a single class. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, are entitled to elect two of the Fund's Trustees.

6. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS

Through expense offset arrangements with the Fund's custodian, a portion of fund expenses has been reduced.

7. DEFERRED TRUSTEES' FEES

Each Trustee of the Fund may defer any or all compensation related to performance of their duties as Trustees. The Trustees' deferred balances are allocated to deferral accounts, which are included in the accrued expenses for the Fund. The investment performance of the deferral accounts are based on the investment performance of certain Evergreen funds. Any gains earned or losses incurred in the deferral accounts are reported in the Fund's Trustees' fees and expenses. At the election of the Trustees, the deferral account will be paid either in one lump sum or in quarterly installments for up to ten years.

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

The Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets in an industry, sector or foreign country and, therefore, may be more affected by changes in that industry, sector or foreign country than would be a comparable mutual fund that is not heavily weighted in any industry, sector or foreign country.

9. REGULATORY MATTERS AND LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Since September 2003, governmental and self-regulatory authorities have instituted numerous ongoing investigations of various practices in the mutual fund industry, including investigations relating to revenue sharing, market-timing, late trading and record retention, among other things. The investigations cover investment advisors, distributors and transfer agents to mutual funds, as well as other firms. EIMC, EIS and Evergreen Services Company, LLC (collectively, "Evergreen") have received subpoenas and other requests for documents and testimony relating to these investigations, are endeavoring to comply with those requests, and are cooperating with the investigations. Evergreen is continuing its own internal review of policies, practices, procedures and personnel, and is taking remedial action where appropriate.

In connection with one of these investigations, on July 28, 2004, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") informed Evergreen that the staff intends to recommend to the

28

SEC that it institute an enforcement action against Evergreen. The SEC staff's proposed allegations relate to (i) an arrangement pursuant to which a broker at one of EIMC's affiliated broker-dealers had been authorized, apparently by an EIMC officer (no longer with EIMC), to engage in short-term trading, on behalf of a client, in Evergreen Mid Cap Growth Fund (formerly Evergreen Emerging Growth Fund and prior to that, known as Evergreen Small Company Growth Fund) during the period from December 2000 through April 2003, in excess of the limitations set forth in the fund's prospectus, (ii) short-term trading from September 2001 through January 2003, by a former Evergreen portfolio manager, of Evergreen Precious Metals Fund, a fund he managed at the time, (iii) the sufficiency of systems for monitoring exchanges and enforcing exchange limitations as stated in the fund's prospectuses, and (iv) the adequacy of e-mail retention practices. In connection with the activity in Evergreen Mid Cap Growth Fund, EIMC reimbursed the fund $378,905, plus an additional $25,242, representing what EIMC calculated at that time to be the client's net gain and the fees earned by EIMC and the expenses incurred by this fund on the client's account. In connection with the activity in Evergreen Precious Metals Fund, EIMC reimbursed the fund $70,878, plus an additional $3,075, representing what EIMC calculated at that time to be the portfolio manager's net gain and the fees earned by EIMC and expenses incurred by the fund on the portfolio manager's account. Evergreen is currently engaged in discussions with the staff of the SEC concerning its recommendation.

Any resolution of these matters with regulatory authorities may include, but not be limited to, sanctions, penalties or injunctions regarding Evergreen, restitution to mutual fund shareholders and/or other financial penalties and structural changes in the governance or management of Evergreen's mutual fund business. Any penalties or restitution will be paid by Evergreen and not by the Evergreen funds.

From time to time, EIMC is involved in various legal actions in the normal course of business. In EIMC's opinion, it is not involved in any legal actions that will have a material effect on its ability to provide services to the Fund.

Although Evergreen believes that neither the foregoing investigations nor any pending or threatened legal actions will have a material adverse impact on the Evergreen funds, there can be no assurance that these matters and any publicity surrounding or resulting from them will not result in reduced sales or increased redemptions of Evergreen fund shares, which could increase Evergreen fund transaction costs or operating expenses, or have other adverse consequences on the Evergreen funds.

AUTOMATIC DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN (unaudited)

All common shareholders are eligible to participate in the Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("the Plan"). Pursuant to the Plan, unless a common shareholder is ineligible or elects otherwise, all cash dividends and capital gains distributions are automatically reinvested by EquiServe Trust Company, N.A., as agent for shareholders in administering the Plan ("Plan Agent"), in additional common shares of the Fund. Whenever the Fund declares an ordinary income dividend or a capital gain dividend (collectively referred to as "dividends") payable either in shares or in cash, non-participants in the Plan will receive cash, and participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in shares of common shares. The shares are acquired by the Plan Agent for the participant's account, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of additional unissued but authorized common shares from the Fund ("newly issued common shares") or (ii) by purchase of outstanding common shares on the open market (open-market purchases) on the American Stock Exchange or elsewhere. If, on the payment date for any dividend or distribution, the net asset value per share of the common shares is equal to or less than the market price per common share plus estimated brokerage commissions ("market premium"), the Plan Agent will invest the amount of such dividend or distribution in newly issued shares on behalf of the participant. The number of newly issued common shares to be credited to the participant's account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend by the net asset value per share on the date the shares are issued, provided that the maximum discount from the then current market price per share on the date of issuance may not exceed 5%. If on the dividend payment date the net asset value per share is greater than the market value or market premium ("market discount"), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in shares acquired on behalf of the participant in open-market purchases. There will be no brokerage charges with respect to shares issued directly by the Fund as a result of dividends or capital gains distributions payable either in shares or in cash. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent's open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions will not relieve participants of any federal, state or local income tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such dividends. All correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Agent at P.O. Box 43010, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-3010.
