The performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance and expense ratios may be lower or higher than the data quoted. For performance data current to the most recent month end, call us at 1.800.988.8287. The Fund’s total returns should not be expected to be the same as the returns of other funds, whether or not both funds have the same portfolio managers and/or similar names. The Fund’s total returns do not include the charges associated with the separate account products that offer this Fund. Such performance would have been lower if such charges were taken into account. The net expense ratios take into account voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which performance would have been less. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. Expense ratios are as stated in the Fund’s prospectus, current as of the date of this report.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, the Fund’s Non-Service shares produced a return of 14.67%, outperforming the Russell 2500 Growth Index (the “Index”), which returned 10.25% during the same period.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of peripheral Europe and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier assets, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock on March 11, when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, the disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. As a result, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
During the reporting period, the Fund outperformed or performed roughly in line with the Index in seven out of ten sectors, led by stronger relative stock selection within the health care and consumer discretionary sectors. The Fund’s stock selection within the industrials sector also benefited relative performance. Telecommunication services and information technology were the most significant detractors from relative performance, due to weaker relative stock selection.
     Health care holding Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. was the top performing holding for the Fund during the period. The specialty pharmaceutical company reported strong first quarter 2011 results and completed its acquisition of PharmaSwiss. Two consumer discretionary stocks, Ulta Salon Cosmetics & Fragrance Inc. and Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., also contributed positively to performance. Beauty retailer Ulta Salon Cosmetics & Fragrance continued to announce strong earnings, impressing the market and driving the stock price to new highs. Chipotle Mexican Grill is a fast food restaurant chain specializing in burritos and tacos. The company, which emphasizes high-quality ingredients, experienced increased traffic in its stores and continued to grow by opening new locations. Chipotle Mexican Grill sustained its solid performance run this period and, in the first quarter of 2011, announced an increase in revenue of 24% year-over-year. Information technology stock Fortinet, Inc. performed well for the Fund. Fortinet, a top five holding of the Fund, is a provider of network security appliances and Unified Threat Management (UTM) network security solutions to enterprises, service providers and government entities worldwide. During the period, the company had a successful first quarter and secured new business from various companies. Within consumer staples, Hansen Natural Corp. was another top five holding of the Fund. Hansen Natural, through its subsidiaries, develops and sells specialty beverages in the United States and internationally. High demand for Hansen Natural’s Monster Energy drinks was the primary driver of its success.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
     During the period, four out of the five most significant detractors from Fund performance were within the information technology sector. Towards the end of the reporting period, a drop in U.S. stock prices broadly led technology company valuations to drop to their lowest levels in more than a decade. Valuations were driven lower primarily by the uncertain economy and potential for future lower revenues, leading to some profit taking. The March 11 earthquake and tsunami in Japan also fueled market speculation that disruptions to the supply chain could affect information technology companies not just in Japan but globally, also sending information technology stocks generally lower. Overall, however, disruptions to the supply chain in the second quarter in actuality were not as bad as the market initially feared. The top individual detractors in information technology were network specialist Ciena Corp., design software and services firm Autodesk, Inc., integrated internet traffic management solutions provider F5 Networks, Inc. and social networking site operator Renren, Inc. We exited our positions in Ciena and Autodesk by period end. Within the materials sector, mining company Silver Wheaton Corp. detracted from performance as it released a weaker than expected earnings report.
     At period end, relative to the Index, the Fund had its most significant overweight positions in consumer discretionary and consumer staples and its most substantial underweight positions in information technology, financials, energy, materials and health care.
Outlook
While an uncertain economic environment may continue to create volatile short-term returns in the market, we are optimistic regarding the Fund’s investment strategy. We seek dynamic companies with above-average and sustainable revenue and earnings growth that we believe are positioned to outperform. This includes leading firms in structurally attractive industries with committed management teams that have proven records of performance. Our focus on well-established, higher-quality growth companies is intended to provide both upside participation and a degree of downside protection over the long term.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Service shares
    1,000.00       1,019.59       5.27  
Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios
 
Non-Service shares
    0.80 %
Service shares
    1.05  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
                    Level 3 —

1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Growth Fund/VA (the “Fund”), is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek capital appreciation by investing in “growth type” companies. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a distribution and service plan. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $72,390,451 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes unused capital loss carryforward as follows:
         
Expiring        
 
2017
  $ 301,034,992  
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an estimated capital loss carryforward of $215,562,433 expiring by 2017. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $85,472,559 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
16 | OPPENHEIMER SMALL- & MID-CAP GROWTH FUND/VA

 


 

Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

  $ 336,989,949     $ 404,060,434

18 | OPPENHEIMER SMALL- & MID-CAP GROWTH FUND/VA

 


 

Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $338,366 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.80% for Non-Service shares and 1.05% for Service shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $122,517 and $7,297 for Non-Service and Service shares, respectively.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $4,288 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
5. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
5. Pending Litigation Continued
Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance and expense ratios may be lower or higher than the data quoted. For performance data current to the most recent month end, call us at 1.800.988.8287. The Fund’s total returns should not be expected to be the same as the returns of other funds, whether or not both funds have the same portfolio managers and/or similar names. The Fund’s total returns do not include the charges associated with the separate account products that offer this Fund. Such performance would have been lower if such charges were taken into account. The net expense ratios take into account voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which performance would have been less. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. Expense ratios are as stated in the Fund’s prospectus, current as of the date of this report.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
During the reporting period, the Fund’s Non-Service Shares produced a return of 4.28%. In comparison, the S&P 500 Index returned 6.02% and the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 2.72%.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of certain European countries and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier assets, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock on March 11, when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. Government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. As a result, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
In a period where equities outperformed bonds, the Fund’s allocation to fixed-income securities resulted in its under-performance versus the S&P 500 Index. Measured separately, the Fund’s equity component performed in line with the S&P 500 Index and the fixed-income component outperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.
     The Fund’s equity component outperformed the S&P 500 Index primarily in materials, information technology, health care and financials. Stronger relative stock selection in the materials and information technology sectors was the main driver of positive Fund performance. The equity component’s relative overweight to the health care sector versus the S&P 500 Index also benefited performance. An underweight to financial stocks, the only sector in the Index to have a negative return, resulted in the equity component outperforming the S&P 500 Index within the financials sector as well.
     The equity component’s top performing individual security was Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. During the period, Take-Two, a leading video game developer, benefited from sales of its NBA 2K11 basketball game as well as Red Dead Redemption, a game by Rockstar Studios that was well received by consumers. Take-Two remains a long-time holding of the Fund and was its largest equity position at period end. Also within information technology, leading mobile phone chipmaker QUALCOMM, Inc. was another top contributor for the equity component. QUALCOMM raised its 2011 forecast amid strong sales. The company also signed a subscriber unit license agreement with Chinese mobile phone maker Zoom Technologies, Inc. Within the health care sector, managed health care firms Humana, Inc.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
and WellPoint, Inc. were among the top contributors to Fund performance, as market fears over the new health care overhaul abated to a degree. Both firms raised their 2011 forecasts and reported earnings that beat Wall Street expectations.
     The most significant detractors within the Fund’s equity component were industrials and energy, due to weaker relative stock selection. Information technology holdings THQ, Inc. and Google, Inc. were the most significant individual detractors. Shares of video game company THQ declined after reviews for its Homefront game came in weaker than expected. A jump in operating expenses due to increased marketing efforts and hiring of new employees caused Google’s shares to fall. The company also declined as the market grew concerned that certain tech stocks were overval-ued given the uncertain economy and potential for future lower revenues, leading to some profit taking.
     In health care, Vanda Pharmaceuticals, Inc. detracted from performance. The company announced during the period that a Phase I trial had been initiated by licensing partner Novartis to evaluate the effectiveness of the drug Fanapt, used in the treatment of schizophrenia, in a long-acting injectable formulation. In the immediate term, the market did not seem to think the announcement benefited the company’s bottom line. Our view is that the potential for value creation may be significant for a company with competitive products and minimal debt levels.
     The Fund’s fixed-income component outperformed the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index in a number of areas for the six-month period, including mortgage-backed securities (MBS), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) and asset-backed securities (ABS). In terms of MBS, the Fund’s fixed-income component had exposure to MBS guaranteed by government-sponsored enterprises, commonly referred to as agency MBS, as well as a smaller allocation to MBS originated by private entities, also known as non-agency MBS. With respect to investment grade corporate securities, the fixed-income component maintained an overweight to financials and a tilt towards lower-rated, investment grade corporate debt, especially BBB-rated securities. This positioning also contributed to results overall for the period. These areas of the market performed particularly well over the first half of the period, when riskier asset classes continued to rally and outperformed historically defensive securities, such as U.S. Treasuries.
     Over the second half of the period, the markets witnessed increased volatility and investors became more risk averse. As a result, the fixed-income component’s exposure to MBS, CMBS, ABS and higher yielding investments did not perform as well over the second half, although these areas still finished in the positive for the overall period. The fixed-income component’s underweight in U.S. Treasuries also detracted from performance over the second half of the period.
Please remember that bonds are exposed to credit and interest rate risks (when interest rates rise, bond/fund prices generally fall). The Fund may invest in below-investment-grade (“junk”) bonds, which are more at risk of default and are subject to liquidity risk. Mortgage-related securities have greater potential for loss when interest rates rise. The Fund also invests in derivative instruments, investments whose values depend on the performance of an underlying security, asset, interest rate or currency and entail potentially higher volatility and risk of loss compared to traditional stock or bond investments. See the prospectus for more information on the risks associated with investing in the Fund.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios
 
Non-Service shares
    0.67 %
Service shares
    0.92  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

5.   Interest-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly interest payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. These securities typically decline in price as interest rates decline. Most other fixed income securities increase in price when interest rates decline. The principal amount of the underlying pool represents the notional amount on which current interest is calculated. The price of these securities is typically more sensitive to changes in prepayment rates than traditional mortgage-backed securities (for example, GNMA pass-throughs). Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based upon the current cost basis and estimated timing and amount of future cash flows. These securities amount to $3,233,448 or 1.39% of the Fund’s net assets as of June 30, 2011.
 
6.   Principal-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly principal payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. The value of these securities generally increases as interest rates decline and prepayment rates rise. The price of these securities is typically more volatile than that of coupon-bearing bonds of the same maturity. Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based upon the current cost basis and estimated timing of future cash flows. These securities amount to $154,485 or 0.07% of the Fund’s net assets as of June 30, 2011.
 
7.   When-issued security or delayed delivery to be delivered and settled after June 30, 2011. See Note 1 of the accompanying Notes.
 
8.   The current amortization rate of the security’s cost basis exceeds the future interest payments currently estimated to be received. Both the amortization rate and interest payments are contingent on future mortgage pre-payment speeds and are therefore subject to change.
 
9.   All or a portion of the security position is held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts and written options on futures, if applicable. The aggregate market value of such securities is $303,075. See Note 5 of the accompanying Notes.
 
10.   This bond has no contractual maturity date, is not redeemable and contractually pays an indefinite stream of interest. Rate reported represents the current interest rate for this variable rate security.
 
11.   Is or was an affiliate, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, at or during the period ended June 30, 2011, by virtue of the Fund owning at least 5% of the voting securities of the issuer or as a result of the Fund and the issuer having the same investment adviser. Transactions during the period in which the issuer was an affiliate are as follows:

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
                    Level 3—

Both classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a distribution and service plan. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
     In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring

before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Securities on a When-Issued or Delayed Delivery Basis. The Fund may purchase securities on a “when-issued” basis, and may purchase or sell securities on a “delayed delivery” basis. “When-issued” or “delayed delivery” refers to securities whose terms and indenture are available and for which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery. Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by the Fund on a when-issued basis normally takes place within six months and possibly as long as two years or more after the trade date. During this period, such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The purchase of securities on a when-issued basis may increase the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while remaining substantially fully invested. When the Fund engages in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions, it relies on the buyer or seller, as the case may be, to complete the transaction. Their failure to do so may cause the Fund to lose the opportunity to obtain or dispose of the security at a price and yield it considers advantageous. The Fund may also sell securities that it purchased on a when-issued basis or forward commitment prior to settlement of the original purchase.
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had purchased securities issued on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis and sold securities issued on a delayed delivery basis as follows:
         
    When-Issued or Delayed Delivery  
    Basis Transactions  
 
Purchased securities
  $ 56,774,559  
Sold securities
    21,843,037  
The Fund may enter into “forward roll” transactions with respect to mortgage-related securities. In this type of transaction, the Fund sells a mortgage-related security to a buyer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security (same type, coupon and maturity) at a later date at a set price. During the period between the sale and the repurchase, the Fund will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities that have been sold. The Fund records the incremental difference between the forward purchase and sale of each forward roll as realized gain (loss) on investments or as fee income in the case of such transactions that have an associated fee in lieu of a difference in the forward purchase and sale price.
     Forward roll transactions may be deemed to entail embedded leverage since the Fund purchases mortgage-related securities with extended settlement dates rather than paying for the securities under a normal settlement cycle. This embedded leverage increases the Fund’s market value of investments relative to its net assets which can incrementally increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance. Forward roll transactions can be replicated over multiple settlement periods.
     Risks of entering into forward roll transactions include the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement; the potential of the Fund to receive inferior securities at redelivery as compared to the securities sold to the counterparty; and counterparty credit risk.

Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Foreign Currency Translation. The Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign investment income are translated into U.S. dollars as of the close of the Exchange, normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading. Foreign exchange rates may be valued primarily using a reliable bank, dealer or service authorized by the Board of Trustees.
     Reported net realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, exchange rate fluctuations between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
     The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $15,850,155 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes straddle losses of $120,488 and unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:
         
Expiring        
 
2016
  $ 28,551,951  
2017
    44,728,707  
 
     
Total
  $ 73,280,658  
 
     
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an estimated capital loss carryforward of $62,524,402 expiring by 2017. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last

fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $10,876,744 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
28 | OPPENHEIMER BALANCED FUND/VA

 


 

Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $200 million
    0.75 %
Next $200 million
    0.72  
Next $200 million
    0.69

    0.66  
Over $800 million
    0.60  
Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $120,283 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the advisory fee and/or reimburse certain expenses so that the “Expenses after payments, waivers and/or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses” will not exceed 0.67% of average annual net assets for Non-Service shares and 0.92% of average annual net assets for Service shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $158,063 and $94,654 for Non-Service and Service shares, respectively.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $22,049 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.

5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments
The Fund’s investment objectives not only permit the Fund to purchase investment securities, they also allow the Fund to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, the Fund will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase, decrease, or change the level or types of exposure to market risk factors. Central to those strategies are features inherent to derivatives that make them more attractive for this purpose than equity and debt securities: they require little or no initial cash investment, they can focus exposure on only certain selected risk factors, and they may not require the ultimate receipt or delivery of the underlying security (or securities) to the contract. This may allow the Fund to pursue its objectives more quickly and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of effecting a similar response to market factors.
Market Risk Factors. In accordance with its investment objectives, the Fund may use derivatives to increase or decrease its exposure to one or more of the following market risk factors:
Commodity Risk. Commodity risk relates to the change in value of commodities or commodity indexes as they relate to increases or decreases in the commodities market. Commodities are physical assets that have tangible properties. Examples of these types of assets are crude oil, heating oil, metals, livestock, and agricultural products.
Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.
Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.
Volatility Risk. Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.
The Fund’s actual exposures to these market risk factors during the period are discussed in further detail, by derivative type, below.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. The Fund’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Fund is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market risk factors for securities held by the Fund, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
     Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance.

5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments Continued
     Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and the Fund. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Fund is attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per its investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives. Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by each derivative type in the notes that follow.
Valuations of derivative instruments as of June 30, 2011 are as follows:

Futures Contracts
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future date. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts and may also buy or write put or call options on these futures contracts.
     Futures contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when the Fund’s assets are valued.
     Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses.
     Futures contracts are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of Investments. Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts and the receivable and/or payable for the daily mark to market for the variation margin are noted in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is reported in the Statement of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported in the Statement of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.
     The Fund has purchased futures contracts on various bonds and notes to increase exposure to interest rate risk.
     The Fund has sold futures contracts on various bonds and notes to decrease exposure to interest rate risk.
32 | OPPENHEIMER BALANCED FUND/VA

 


 

     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had an ending monthly average market value of $7,529,366 and $14, 633,048 on futures contracts purchased and sold, respectively.
     Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where the Fund is unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of the Fund’s securities.
6. Restricted Securities
As of June 30, 2011, investments in securities included issues that are restricted. A restricted security may have a contractual restriction on its resale and is valued under methods approved by the Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value. Securities that are restricted are marked with an applicable footnote on the Statement of Investments. Restricted securities are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments.
7. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District

of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, the Fund’s Non-Service Shares produced a return of 5.47%, underperforming the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the “Index”) and the S&P 500 Index, which returned 6.83% and 6.02%, respectively.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of certain European countries and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier asset classes, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock on March 11, when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. As a result, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
The Fund outperformed the Index primarily in the consumer discretionary sector, as a result of stronger relative stock selection. Relative to the Index, most significant detractors from performance were the information technology and financials sectors, as a result of weaker stock selection in those sectors.
     During the reporting period, leading mobile phone chipmaker QUALCOMM, Inc. was the top performing stock within information technology and the top performing stock for the Fund overall. The company raised its 2011 forecast amid strong sales. The company also signed a subscriber unit license agreement with Chinese mobile phone maker Zoom Technologies, Inc. Apple, Inc. also performed well for the Fund, as the stock received a boost from continued popularity of the iPhone. Oil and gas equipment and service provider Halliburton Co. benefited from rising oil service activity, and was the top positive contributor to Fund performance in the energy sector. In the industrials sector, heavy equipment maker Caterpillar, Inc. announced its first-quarter profits rose five-fold in light of increased demand for its mining and construction equipment. In terms of health care, pharmaceutical firm Allergan, Inc., the maker of Botox, contributed to Fund results, as it announced an improved 2011 earnings outlook and projected second-quarter sales that topped analysts’ expectations. In addition, life science tools and service provider Thermo Fisher Scientific had a strong reporting period, lifted by strong growth across its product lines and impressive financial results.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
     The top five individual detractors to Fund performance came from the information technology sector. Performance detractors included internet software and services giant Google, Inc., communications equipment providers Cisco Systems, Inc. and Juniper Networks, Inc., semiconductor firm Broadcom Corp. and internet software and service provider Akamai Technologies, Inc. Towards the end of the reporting period, a drop in U.S. stock prices broadly led technology company valuations to drop to their lowest levels in more than a decade. Valuations were driven lower primarily by the uncertain economy and potential for future lower revenues, leading to some profit taking. The March 11 earthquake and tsunami in Japan also fueled market speculation that disruptions to the supply chain could affect information technology companies not just in Japan but globally, helping to send information technology stocks generally lower. Overall, however, disruptions to the supply chain in the second quarter in actuality were not as bad as the market initially feared.
     A jump in operating expenses due to increased marketing efforts and hiring of new employees caused Google’s shares to fall. Despite beating analysts’ expectations in its fiscal third quarter, shares of Cisco Systems fell following an announcement that the company planned to undertake measures to reduce costs by $1 billion dollars. Juniper Networks’ stock was hurt by the volatile market environment and renewed pessimism over the strength of the global economic recovery. Broadcom and Akamai both experienced declines as they issued second quarter guidance below analysts’ estimates. We exited our positions in Akamai and Cisco Systems by period end.
     At period end, relative to the Index, the Fund had significant overweight positions in the health care and industrials sectors. The Fund had its largest relative underweight position in consumer staples and also held underweights in consumer discretionary and materials.
Outlook
While an uncertain economic environment may continue to create volatile short-term returns in the market, we continue to seek quality growth companies supported by long-term growth themes. As such, we remain optimistic regarding the Fund’s disciplined investment strategy over the long term, which combines top-down sector analysis and bottom-up fundamental research.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and, if available, the Fund’s summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor or calling us at 1.800.988.8287. Read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, carefully before investing.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Service shares
    1,000.00       1,019.59       5.27  
Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios  
 
Non-Service shares
    0.80 %
Service shares
    1.05  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

STATEMENT OF INVESTMENTS Unaudited / Continued
Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
                    Level 3—

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund/VA (the “Fund”) is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek capital appreciation by investing in securities of well-known, established companies. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a distribution and service plan. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
     Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued utilizing current and forward currency rates obtained from independent pricing services.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
14 | OPPENHEIMER CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND/ VA

 


 

In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Foreign Currency Translation. The Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign investment income are translated into U.S. dollars as of the close of the Exchange, normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading. Foreign exchange rates may be valued primarily using a reliable bank, dealer or service authorized by the Board of Trustees.
     Reported net realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, exchange rate fluctuations between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
     The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continue or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $72,900,879 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for federal income tax purpose unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:
         
Expiring        
 
2011
  $ 23,369,993  
2013
    34,677,838  
2016
    113,637,770  
2017
    180,633,172  
 
     
Total
  $ 352,318,773  
 
     
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an estimated capital loss carryforward of $329,365,519 expiring by 2017. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $22,953,254 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.
         
Federal tax cost of securities
  $ 795,299,332  
 
     
Gross unrealized appreciation
  $ 374,998,853

Net unrealized appreciation
  $ 372,471,428  
 
     
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive
16 | OPPENHEIMER CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND/ VA

 


 

from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment securities
  $ 160,526,616     $ 252,069,016  
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $200 million
    0.75 %

Over $800 million
    0.60  
Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $609,612 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
18 | OPPENHEIMER CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND/ VA

 


 

Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.80% for Non-Service shares and 1.05% for Service shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $20,477 and $11,771 for Non-Service and Service shares, respectively.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $1,612 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments
The Fund’s investment objectives not only permit the Fund to purchase investment securities, they also allow the Fund to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, the Fund will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase, decrease, or change the level or types of exposure to market risk factors. Central to those strategies are features inherent to derivatives that make them more attractive for this purpose than equity and debt securities: they require little or no initial cash investment, they can focus exposure on only certain selected risk factors, and they may not require the ultimate receipt or delivery of the underlying security (or securities) to the contract. This may allow the Fund to pursue its objectives more quickly and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of effecting a similar response to market factors.
Market Risk Factors. In accordance with its investment objectives, the Fund may use derivatives to increase or decrease its exposure to one or more of the following market risk factors:
Commodity Risk. Commodity risk relates to the change in value of commodities or commodity indexes as they relate to increases or decreases in the commodities market. Commodities are physical assets that have tangible properties. Examples of these types of assets are crude oil, heating oil, metals, livestock, and agricultural products.
Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.
Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.
Volatility Risk. Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
5.   Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments Continue
The Fund’s actual exposures to these market risk factors during the period are discussed in further detail, by derivative type, below.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. The Fund’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Fund is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market risk factors for securities held by the Fund, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
     Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance.
     Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and the Fund. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Fund is attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per its investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives. Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by each derivative type in the notes that follow.
Counterparty Credit Risk. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. The Fund’s derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. The Fund intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that the Manager believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. As of June 30, 2011, the maximum amount of loss that the Fund would incur if the counterparties to its derivative transactions failed to perform would be $2,815, which represents gross payments to be received by the Fund on these derivative contracts were they to be unwound as of period end.
Credit Related Contingent Features. The Fund’s agreements with derivative counterparties have several credit related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivatives counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from the Fund. Credit related contingent features are established between the Fund and its derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that the Fund will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in the Fund’s net assets and or a percentage decrease in the Fund’s Net Asset Value or NAV. The contingent features are established within the Fund’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements which govern certain positions in swaps, over-the-counter options and swaptions, and forward currency exchange contracts for each individual counterparty.

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Fund may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) for the purchase or sale of a foreign currency at a negotiated rate at a future date.
     Forward contracts are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments. Forward contracts will be valued daily based upon the closing prices of the forward currency rates determined at the close of the Exchange as provided by a bank, dealer or pricing service. The resulting unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and in the Statement of Operations within the change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). At contract close, the difference between the original cost of the contract and the value at the close date is recorded as a realized gain (loss) in the Statement of Operations.
     The Fund has purchased and sold certain forward foreign currency exchange contracts of different currencies in order to acquire currencies to pay for related foreign securities purchase transactions, or to convert foreign currencies to U.S. dollars from related foreign securities sale transactions. These foreign currency exchange contracts are negotiated at the current spot exchange rate with settlement typically within two business days thereafter.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had daily average contract amounts on forward foreign currency contracts to buy and sell of $410,929 and $605,165, respectively.
     Additional associated risk to the Fund includes counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk arises from the possibility that the counterparty will default.
6. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
6. Pending Litigation Continue
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance and expense ratios may be lower or higher than the data quoted. For performance data current to the most recent month end, call us at 1.800.988.8287. The Fund’s total returns should not be expected to be the same as the returns of other funds, whether or not both funds have the same portfolio managers and/or similar names. The Fund’s total returns do not include the charges associated with the separate account products that offer this Fund. Such performance would have been lower if such charges were taken into account. The net expense ratios take into account voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which performance would have been less. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.

The percentages above are based on the market value of the Fund’s securities as of June 30, 2011, and are subject to change. Except for securities labeled “Agency” and except for certain securities issued or guaranteed by a foreign sovereign or supranational entity, all securities have been rated by at least one Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”), such as Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”). For securities rated only by an NRSRO other than S&P, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. converts that rating to the equivalent S&P rating. If two or more NRSROs have assigned a rating to a security, the highest S&P equivalent rating is used. Unrated securities issued or guaranteed by a foreign sovereign or supranational entity are assigned a credit rating equal to the highest NRSRO rating assigned to that foreign sovereign or supranational entity. Fund assets invested in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund are assigned that fund’s S&P rating, which is currently AAA. For the purposes of this Credit Allocation table, “investment-grade” securities are securities rated within the NRSROs’ four highest rating categories, which include AAA, AA, A and BBB. Unrated securities do not necessarily indicate low credit quality, and may or may not be the equivalent of investment-grade. Please consult the Fund’s prospectus for further information. Additional information can be found in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
During the reporting period, the Fund’s Non-Service Shares returned 3.87%, outperforming the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the “Index”), which returned 2.72%.The Fund also outperformed the Barclays Capital Credit Index and the Citigroup Broad Investment Grade Bond Index, which returned 3.41% and 2.66%, respectively, during the same period.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of peripheral Europe and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier assets, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock on March 11, when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, the disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. As a result, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. The U.S. housing market also continued to struggle with foreclosures and depressed prices. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
The Fund outperformed the Index in a number of areas for the period, including mortgage-backed securities (MBS), commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) and asset-backed securities (ABS). The Fund’s exposure to MBS included MBS guaranteed by government-sponsored enterprises, commonly referred to as agency MBS, as well as a smaller allocation to MBS originated by private entities, also known as non-agency MBS. With respect to investment grade corporate securities, the Fund maintained an overweight to financials and a tilt towards lower rated, investment grade corporate debt, especially BBB-rated securities. This positioning also contributed to results overall for the period. These areas of the market performed particularly well over the first half of the period, when riskier asset classes continued to rally and outperformed historically defensive securities, such as U.S. Treasuries.
     Over the second half of the period, the markets witnessed increased volatility and investors became more risk averse. As a result, the Fund’s exposure to MBS, CMBS, ABS and higher yielding investments did not perform as well over the second half, although these areas still finished in the positive for the overall period. The Fund’s underweight in U.S. Treasuries also detracted from performance over the second half of the period.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
Outlook
Easing in oil prices will benefit many producers and consumers globally, and we expect lower prices at the pump to bolster the U.S. consumer in particular. Absent renewed commodity price shocks, we expect the domestic economic expansion to continue. Yet the growth in employment in the U.S. remains sluggish and the domestic housing market is stubbornly weak. Such a backdrop contributes to a frustratingly slow consumer recovery as the U.S. gradually unwinds the debt-fueled excesses of the past.
     Nevertheless, we believe key indicators seem to point to a rebound in the U.S., despite the market turbulence in the second half of the reporting period. Corporate profitability continues to advance while defaults for non-investment grade issues remain low. While QE2 has ended, the Fed remains accommodative. We do not expect the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) to enact tightening measures in 2011. Consequently, we expect to maintain significant allocations to domestic higher yielding debt, ABS, MBS and CMBS and maintain an underweight to low yielding U.S. Treasuries.
     Please remember that bonds are exposed to credit and interest rate risks (when interest rates rise, bond/fund prices generally fall). The Fund may invest in below-investment-grade (“junk”) bonds, which are more at risk of default and are subject to liquidity risk. Mortgage-related securities have greater potential for loss when interest rates rise. The Fund also invests in derivative instruments, investments whose values depend on the performance of an underlying security, asset, interest rate or currency and entail potentially higher volatility and risk of loss compared to traditional stock or bond investments. See the prospectus for more information on the risks associated with investing in the Fund.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and, if available, the Fund’s summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor or calling us at 1.800.988.8287. Read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, carefully before investing.
Total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. Cumulative total returns are not annualized.
The Fund’s investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios
 
Non-Service shares
    0.75 %
Service shares
    1.00  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

1.   Represents securities sold under Rule 144A, which are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities have been determined to be liquid under guidelines established by the Board of Trustees. These securities amount to $24,127,145 or 12.80% of the Fund’s net assets as of June 30, 2011.
 
2.   Represents the current interest rate for a variable or increasing rate security.
 
3.   This security is not accruing income because the issuer has missed an interest payment on it and/or is not anticipated to make future interest and/or principal payments. The rate shown is the original contractual interest rate. See Note 1 of the accompanying Notes.
 
4.   Restricted security. The aggregate value of restricted securities as of June 30, 2011 was $2,703,847, which represents 1.43% of the Fund’s net assets. See Note 6 of the accompanying Notes. Information concerning restricted securities is as follows:

5.   Interest-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly interest payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. These securities typically decline in price as interest rates decline. Most other fixed income securities increase in price when interest rates decline. The principal amount of the underlying pool represents the notional amount on which current interest is calculated. The price of these securities is typically more sensitive to changes in prepayment rates than traditional mortgage-backed securities (for example, GNMA pass-throughs). Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based upon the current cost basis and estimated timing and amount of future cash flows. These securities amount to $6,481,665 or 3.44% of the Fund’s net assets as of June 30, 2011.
 
6.   The current amortization rate of the security’s cost basis exceeds the future interest payments currently estimated to be received. Both the amortization rate and interest payments are contingent on future mortgage pre-payment speeds and are therefore subject to change.
 
7.   Principal-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly principal payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. The value of these securities generally increases as interest rates decline and prepayment rates rise. The price of these securities is typically more volatile than that of coupon-bearing bonds of the same maturity. Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based upon the current cost basis and estimated timing of future cash flows. These securities amount to $343,357 or 0.18% of the Fund’s net assets as of June 30, 2011.
 
8.   When-issued security or delayed delivery to be delivered and settled after June 30, 2011. See Note 1 of the accompanying Notes.
 
9.   All or a portion of the security position is held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts and written options on futures, if applicable. The aggregate market value of such securities is $701,035. See Note 5 of the accompanying Notes.

10.   This bond has no contractual maturity date, is not redeemable and contractually pays an indefinite stream of interest. Rate reported represents the current interest rate for this variable rate security.
 
11.   Is or was an affiliate, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, at or during the period ended June 30, 2011, by virtue of the Fund owning at least 5% of the voting securities of the issuer or as a result of the Fund and the issuer having the same investment adviser.

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
                    Level 3—

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund/VA (the “Fund”), is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s main investment objective is to seek a high level of current income. As a secondary objective, the Fund seeks capital appreciation when consistent with its primary objective. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a distribution and service plan. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
24 | OPPENHEIMER CORE BOND FUND/VA

 


 

In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Securities on a When-Issued or Delayed Delivery Basis. The Fund may purchase securities on a “when-issued” basis, and may purchase or sell securities on a “delayed delivery” basis. “When-issued” or “delayed delivery” refers to securities whose terms and indenture are available and for which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery. Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by the Fund on a when-issued basis normally takes place within six months and possibly as long as two years or more after the trade date. During this period, such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The purchase of securities on a when-issued basis may increase the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while remaining substantially fully invested. When the Fund engages in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions, it relies on the buyer or seller, as the case may be, to complete the transaction. Their failure to do so may cause the Fund to lose the opportunity to obtain or dispose of the security at a price and yield it considers advantageous. The Fund may also sell securities that it purchased on a when-issued basis or forward commitment prior to settlement of the original purchase.
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had purchased securities issued on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis and sold securities issued on a delayed delivery basis as follows:
         
    When-Issued or Delayed  
    Delivery Basis Transactions  
 
Purchased securities
  $ 112,042,787  
Sold securities
    43,616,170  
The Fund may enter into “forward roll” transactions with respect to mortgage-related securities. In this type of transaction, the Fund sells a mortgage-related security to a buyer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security (same type, coupon and maturity) at a later date at a set price. During the period between the sale and the repurchase, the Fund will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities that have been sold. The Fund records the incremental difference between the forward purchase and sale of each forward roll as realized gain (loss) on investments or as fee income in the case of such transactions that have an associated fee in lieu of a difference in the forward purchase and sale price.
     Forward roll transactions may be deemed to entail embedded leverage since the Fund purchases mortgage-related securities with extended settlement dates rather than paying for the securities under a normal settlement cycle. This embedded leverage increases the Fund’s market value of investments relative to its net assets which can incrementally increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance. Forward roll transactions can be replicated over multiple settlement periods.

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
     Risks of entering into forward roll transactions include the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement; the potential of the Fund to receive inferior securities at redelivery as compared to the securities sold to the counterparty; and counterparty credit risk.
Credit Risk. The Fund invests in high-yield, non-investment-grade bonds, which may be subject to a greater degree of credit risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest or principal payments or both as they become due. The Fund may acquire securities that have missed an interest payment, and is not obligated to dispose of securities whose issuers or underlying obligors subsequently miss an interest payment. Information concerning securities not accruing interest as of June 30, 2011 is as follows:
         
Cost
  $ 3,281,116  
Market Value

Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $8,990,701 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes post-October losses of $1,043,235 which will expire in 2019 if unutilized and unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:

    75,069,850  
 
     
Total
  $ 95,426,697  
 
     
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an estimated capital loss carryforward of $93,229,161 expiring by 2017. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last

fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $3,240,771 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.

The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.

Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

3. Purchases and Sales of Securities
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other than short-term obligations and investments in IMMF, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, were as follows:
                 
    Purchases     Sales  
 
Investment securities
  $ 63,350,344     $ 78,967,495  
U.S. government and government agency obligations

To Be Announced (TBA) mortgage-related securities
    501,745,444       503,794,076  
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $1 billion
    0.60 %
Over $1 billion
    0.50  
Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $93,033 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.75% for Non-Service shares and 1.00% for Service shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $7,170 and $3,043 for Non-Service and Service shares, respectively.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $13,839 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments
The Fund’s investment objectives not only permit the Fund to purchase investment securities, they also allow the Fund to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, the Fund will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase, decrease,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments Continued
or change the level or types of exposure to market risk factors. Central to those strategies are features inherent to derivatives that make them more attractive for this purpose than equity and debt securities: they require little or no initial cash investment, they can focus exposure on only certain selected risk factors, and they may not require the ultimate receipt or delivery of the underlying security (or securities) to the contract. This may allow the Fund to pursue its objectives more quickly and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of effecting a similar response to market factors.
Market Risk Factors. In accordance with its investment objectives, the Fund may use derivatives to increase or decrease its exposure to one or more of the following market risk factors:
Commodity Risk. Commodity risk relates to the change in value of commodities or commodity indexes as they relate to increases or decreases in the commodities market. Commodities are physical assets that have tangible properties. Examples of these types of assets are crude oil, heating oil, metals, livestock, and agricultural products.
Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.
Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.
Volatility Risk. Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.
The Fund’s actual exposures to these market risk factors during the period are discussed in further detail, by derivative type, below.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. The Fund’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Fund is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market risk factors for securities held by the Fund, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
     Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance.
     Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and the Fund. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Fund is attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per its investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives. Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk

that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by each derivative type in the notes that follow.
Valuations of derivative instruments as of June 30, 2011 are as follows:

Futures Contracts
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future date. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts and may also buy or write put or call options on these futures contracts.
     Futures contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when the Fund’s assets are valued.
     Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses.
     Futures contracts are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of Investments. Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts and the receivable and/or payable for the daily mark to market for the variation margin are noted in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is reported in the Statement of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported in the Statement of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.
     The Fund has purchased futures contracts on various bonds and notes to increase exposure to interest rate risk.
     The Fund has sold futures contracts on various bonds and notes to decrease exposure to interest rate risk.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had an ending monthly average market value of $14,387,996 and $37,607,794 on futures contracts purchased and sold, respectively.
     Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where the Fund is unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of the Fund’s securities.

6. Restricted Securities
As of June 30, 2011, investments in securities included issues that are restricted. A restricted security may have a contractual restriction on its resale and is valued under methods approved by the Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value. Securities that are restricted are marked with an applicable footnote on the Statement of Investments. Restricted securities are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments.
7. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in
32 | OPPENHEIMER CORE BOND FUND/VA

 


 

New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
The Fund’s Non-Service Shares produced a return of 7.54% over the first half of 2011, outperforming the MSCI World Index (the “Index”), which rose 5.29%. The Fund outperformed most in the information technology, consumer discretionary, materials and health care sectors and lagged the Index only in the energy sector due to a relative underweight position.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of peripheral Europe and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier assets, such as stocks and bonds, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock on March 11, when a catastrophic natural disaster and subsequent nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, the disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. As a result, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
The top contributor to performance over the period was Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, better known as Ericsson. The company is a leading supplier to the mobile telecom service industry. Indeed, over 40% of the world’s mobile telecom traffic passes over Ericsson network equipment. Telecom service providers such as Ericsson are building capacity to meet dramatically rising data volume, driven by the rapid adoption of mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets.
     Altera Corp., which makes programmable chips, was the second strongest contributor to the Fund during the first half of 2011. The market for such flexible chips has continued to expand, as the specificity of devices proliferates and requires highly customized, small batch manufacturing. In our opinion, this is a long-term trend and the lead players in it will have pricing power enabling them to maintain margins. Altera is one of the two global leaders in the space.
     European Aeronautic Defence & Space Co. NV (“EADS”) was the third highest contributor to the Fund’s performance during the period. EADS, along with Boeing, is one of the primary players in the oligarchic plane market. Announcement of several new orders for its planes drove EADS stock upward during the period.
     Two of the top individual detractors from performance were Sony Corp. and Infosys Ltd. Japanese consumer electronics giant Sony Corp.’s stock prices were negatively impacted by a few factors. In the immediate aftermath of the devastating Japanese earthquake in March, the stock prices of virtually all Japanese companies suffered to some degree. In actuality,

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
most Japanese firms showed remarkable resiliency in resuming business operations quite rapidly and the Japanese stock market generally began a fairly swift recovery. Infosys, the Indian-based international IT consulting and software service company, declined after announcing earnings that were below market expectations. Sales were slower than had been anticipated and an appreciating Indonesian Rupiah dampened foreign currency earnings.
     Within consumer discretionary, Carnival Corp.’s performance was negatively impacted by the spike in higher fuel prices and disruptions in service to a few of its cruise lines as a result of the geopolitical turmoil in places such as Japan, North Africa and the Middle East.
     We did not change our sector weightings appreciably during the period. Compared to our benchmark, we remained heavily overweight in the information technology sector and significantly underweight in the energy and materials sectors. These weightings reflect our focus on new technologies as one of our investment themes. They also reflect our bias against cyclical industries that must typically rely on outside funding.
Outlook
We do not make bets on directional market movements. In our opinion — and in our experience — it is more prudent to build a portfolio from the bottom up. We focus on individual stocks based on our long-term expectations of their potential to deliver profits. We look for companies that will benefit from secular, long-term growth trends that have a sustainable competitive advantage and that can largely finance their own growth.
It is important to remember that investing in foreign securities may involve special risks (such as currency fluctuations and political uncertainties) and may have greater expense and volatility. Investments in emerging and developing markets may also be especially volatile. Diversification does not assure profit or protect against loss. See the prospectus for more information on the risks associated with investing in the Fund.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and, if available, the Fund’s summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor or calling us at 1.800.988.8287. Read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, carefully before investing.
Total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. Cumulative total returns are not annualized.
The Fund’s investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Class 4
    1,000.00       1,019.79       5.07  
Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios
Non-Service shares
    0.76 %
Service shares
    1.01  
Class 3
    0.76  
Class 4
    1.01  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Global Securities Fund/VA (the “Fund”) is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation by investing a substantial portion of its assets in securities of foreign issuers, “growth-type” companies, cyclical industries and special situations that are considered to have appreciation possibilities. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers Non-Service, Service, Class 3 and Class 4 shares. All classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares being designated as Service shares and Class 4 shares are subject to a distribution and service plan. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. The Fund assesses a 1% fee on the proceeds of Class 3 and Class 4 shares that are redeemed (either by selling or exchanging to another Oppenheimer fund or other investment option offered through your variable life insurance or variable annuity contract) within 60 days of their purchase. The fee, which is retained by the Fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued utilizing current and forward currency rates obtained from independent pricing services.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
     In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Foreign Currency Translation. The Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign investment income are translated into U.S. dollars as of the close of the Exchange, normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading. Foreign exchange rates may be valued primarily using a reliable bank, dealer or service authorized by the Board of Trustees.
     Reported net realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, exchange rate fluctuations between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
     The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net
20 | OPPENHEIMER GLOBAL SECURITIES FUND/VA

 


 

assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $61,984,330 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:
         
Expiring        
 
2017
  $ 17,214,823  
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes no estimated capital loss carryforward. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $17,214,823 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.
         
Federal tax cost of securities
  $ 2,150,304,044  
 
     
Gross unrealized appreciation
  $ 818,486,364  
Gross unrealized depreciation
    (88,146,596 )
 
     
Net unrealized appreciation
  $ 730,339,768  
 
     
Certain foreign countries impose a tax on capital gains which is accrued by the Fund based on unrealized appreciation, if any, on affected securities. The tax is paid when the gain is realized.
     The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $200 million
    0.75 %

Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $1,435,691 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares and Class 4 Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares and Class 4 shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares and Class 4 shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares and Class 4 shares of the Fund. The

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates Continued
Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares and Class 4 shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares and Class 4 shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 1.00% for Non-Service and Class 3 shares and 1.25% for Service and Class 4 shares.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $12,637 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments
The Fund’s investment objectives not only permit the Fund to purchase investment securities, they also allow the Fund to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, the Fund will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase, decrease, or change the level or types of exposure to market risk factors. Central to those strategies are features inherent to derivatives that make them more attractive for this purpose than equity and debt securities: they require little or no initial cash investment, they can focus exposure on only certain selected risk factors, and they may not require the ultimate receipt or delivery of the underlying security (or securities) to the contract. This may allow the Fund to pursue its objectives more quickly and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of effecting a similar response to market factors.
Market Risk Factors. In accordance with its investment objectives, the Fund may use derivatives to increase or decrease its exposure to one or more of the following market risk factors:
Commodity Risk. Commodity risk relates to the change in value of commodities or commodity indexes as they relate to increases or decreases in the commodities market. Commodities are physical assets that have tangible properties. Examples of these types of assets are crude oil, heating oil, metals, livestock, and agricultural products.
Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.
Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.
24 | OPPENHEIMER GLOBAL SECURITIES FUND/VA

 


 

Volatility Risk. Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.
The Fund’s actual exposures to these market risk factors during the period are discussed in further detail, by derivative type, below.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. The Fund’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Fund is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market risk factors for securities held by the Fund, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance.
Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and the Fund. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Fund is attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per its investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives. Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by each derivative type in the notes that follow.
Counterparty Credit Risk. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. The Fund’s derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. The Fund intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that the Manager believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. As of June 30, 2011, the maximum amount of loss that the Fund would incur if the counterparties to its derivative transactions failed to perform would be $1,911, which represents gross payments to be received by the Fund on these derivative contracts were they to be unwound as of period end.
Credit Related Contingent Features. The Fund’s agreements with derivative counterparties have several credit related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivatives counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from the Fund. Credit related contingent features are established between the Fund and its derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that the Fund will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in the Fund’s net assets and or a percentage decrease in the Fund’s Net Asset Value or NAV. The contingent features are established within the Fund’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements which govern certain positions in swaps, over-the-counter options and swaptions, and forward currency exchange contracts for each individual counterparty.
Valuations of derivative instruments as of June 30, 2011 are as follows:

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Fund may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) for the purchase or sale of a foreign currency at a negotiated rate at a future date.
     Forward contracts are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments. Forward contracts will be valued daily based upon the closing prices of the forward currency rates determined at the close of the Exchange as provided by a bank, dealer or pricing service. The resulting unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and in the Statement of Operations within the change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). At contract close, the difference between the original cost of the contract and the value at the close date is recorded as a realized gain (loss) in the Statement of Operations.
     The Fund has purchased and sold certain forward foreign currency exchange contracts of different currencies in order to acquire currencies to pay for related foreign securities purchase transactions, or to convert foreign currencies to U.S. dollars from related foreign securities sale transactions. These foreign currency exchange contracts are negotiated at the current spot exchange rate with settlement typically within two business days thereafter.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had daily average contract amounts on forward foreign currency contracts to buy and sell of $1,780,141 and $3,063,047, respectively.
     Additional associated risk to the Fund includes counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk arises from the possibility that the counterparty will default.
6. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.

     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

The percentages above are based on the market value of the Fund’s securities as of June 30, 2011, and are subject to change. Except for securities labeled “Unrated” and except for certain securities issued or guaranteed by a foreign sovereign or supranational entity, all securities have been rated by at least one Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization (“NRSRO”), such as Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”). For securities rated only by an NRSRO other than S&P, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. converts that rating to the equivalent S&P rating. If two or more NRSROs have assigned a rating to a security, the highest S&P equivalent rating is used. Unrated securities issued or guaranteed by a foreign sovereign or supranational entity are assigned a credit rating equal to the highest NRSRO rating assigned to that foreign sovereign or supranational entity. Fund assets invested in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund are assigned that fund’s S&P rating, which is currently AAA. For the purposes of this Credit Allocation table, “investment-grade” securities are securities rated within the NRSROs’ four highest rating categories, which include AAA, AA, A and BBB. Unrated securities do not necessarily indicate low credit quality, and may or may not be the equivalent of investment-grade. Please consult the Fund’s prospectus for further information. Additional information can be found in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
During the reporting period, the Fund’s Non-Service Shares returned 4.86%. The Fund underperformed the JPMorgan Domestic High Yield Index (the “Index”), which returned 5.44% and performed in line with the BofA Merrill Lynch High Yield Master Index, which returned 4.89%.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of peripheral Europe, and in February strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism, and riskier assets, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock on March 11, when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, the disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. Government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. As a result, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
During the reporting period, the Fund continued to have a tilt towards higher-yielding securities versus the Index. This positioning allowed the Fund to perform well over the first half of the period when riskier asset classes continued to rally and outperform historically defensive securities. However, as investors became more risk averse in the second half of the period, high-yield bonds witnessed a significant sell-off and the Fund’s performance pulled back to a degree.
     For the overall six-month period, the Fund outperformed the Index in a number of sectors, led by the utility, paper and packaging, and retail sectors. The Fund’s security selection in all three sectors outperformed versus the Index. Within retail, the Fund’s underweight positioning to a weaker performing sector of the Index also contributed to relative outperformance. Security selection also accounted for outperformance versus the Index in other sectors, including transportation, energy, automotive, cable and satellite, among others.
     While most sectors of the Index produced positive total returns for the Fund, a few sectors finished the period in the negative. Diversified media, consumer products and gaming, lodging and leisure lost value during the period and were top detractors from relative performance. The Fund underperformed the Index in each of these sectors as a result of weaker relative security selection. These sectors were among those harder hit by a dampening of consumer sentiment, uncertainty over the direction of the global economy, and a reining in of consumer spending.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
Outlook
Our outlook for high yield bonds remains positive, both on an absolute basis and relative to more defensive asset classes, such as U.S. Treasuries and money market securities, given the historically low rates currently available in those historically defensive areas. We believe that high yield bonds are poised to resume their positive performance as valuations appear fair and fundamentals have continued to improve.
     We continue to believe that outperformance may be achieved through diligent credit selection and thoughtful industry sector weightings. Indeed, an environment of sustained low rates and gradually improving fundamentals should play well to the team’s value-oriented process, a process that evaluates market opportunities on a security-by-security basis. At period end, the Fund’s largest overweights relative to the Index were in broadcasting, paper and packaging, and industrials. We believe that these industries have the potential to perform well as they currently offer attractive prices and improving fundamentals. Meanwhile, the Fund’s most significant underweights were in energy, retail, cable and satellite, and financials, as we suspect these sectors could struggle going forward.
     Please remember that bonds are exposed to credit and interest rate risks (when interest rates rise, bond/fund prices generally fall). The Fund may invest in below-investment-grade (“junk”) bonds, which are more at risk of default and are subject to liquidity risk. Mortgage-related securities have greater potential for loss when interest rates rise. The Fund also invests in derivative instruments, investments whose values depend on the performance of an underlying security, asset, interest rate or currency and entail potentially higher volatility and risk of loss compared to traditional stock or bond investments. See the prospectus for more information on the risks associated with investing in the Fund.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and, if available, the Fund’s summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor or calling us at 1.800.988.8287. Read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, carefully before investing.
Total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. Cumulative total returns are not annualized.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios
 
Non-Service Shares
    0.75 %
Service shares
    1.00  
Class 3
    0.75  
Class 4
    1.00  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer High Income Fund/VA (the “Fund”) is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income from investment in high-yield, fixed-income securities. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers Non-Service, Service, Class 3 and Class 4 shares. All classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares being designated as Service shares and Class 4 shares are subject to a distribution and service plan. All classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class. The Fund assesses a 1% fee on the proceeds of Class 3 and Class 4 shares that are redeemed (either by selling or exchanging to another Oppenheimer fund or other investment option offered through your variable life insurance or variable annuity contract) within 60 days of their purchase. The fee, which is retained by the Fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
21 | OPPENHEIMER HIGH INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
     In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. As of June 30, 2011, the Manager determined the fair valuation of certain common and preferred stock based on internally developed models. Such investments have been classified as Level 3 instruments.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Credit Risk. The Fund invests in high-yield, non-investment-grade bonds, which may be subject to a greater degree of credit risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest or principal payments or both as they become due. The Fund may acquire securities that have missed an interest payment, and is not obligated to dispose of securities whose issuers or underlying obligors subsequently miss an interest payment. Information concerning securities not accruing interest as of June 30, 2011 is as follows:

Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
22 | OPPENHEIMER HIGH INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $4,432,223 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:
         
Expiring        
 
2011
  $ 8,529,303  
2012
    128,504  
2016
    48,495,519  
2017
    171,938,143  
 
     
Total
  $ 229,091,469  
 
     
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an estimated capital loss carryforward of $227,121,999 expiring by 2017. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $1,969,470 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
     The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.
         
Federal tax cost of securities
  $ 129,041,138  
 
     
Gross unrealized appreciation
  $ 5,594,028  
Gross unrealized depreciation

Net unrealized depreciation
  $ (768,971 )
 
     
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

  $ 41,173,324     $ 47,482,148  
 
4.   Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $200 million
    0.75 %

Over $1 billion
    0.50  
Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $70,402 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares and Class 4 Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares and Class 4 shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares and Class 4 shares. Under the Plan, payments are made
25 | OPPENHEIMER HIGH INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates Continued
periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares and Class 4 shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares and Class 4 shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares and Class 4 shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.75% for Non-Service and Class 3 shares and 1.00% for Service and Class 4 shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $61,960, $65,694, $6,583 and $8,931 for Non-Service, Service, Class 3 and Class 4 shares, respectively.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $2,154 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
5. Restricted Securities
As of June 30, 2011, investments in securities included issues that are restricted. A restricted security may have a contractual restriction on its resale and is valued under methods approved by the Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value. Securities that are restricted are marked with an applicable footnote on the Statement of Investments. Restricted securities are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments.
6. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
26 | OPPENHEIMER HIGH INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
For the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2011, the Fund’s Non-Service Shares produced a return of 2.79%. The S&P 500 Index produced a return of 6.02% over the same period. The Fund achieved solid relative performance in the consumer staples, materials and industrials sectors, but results from the financials and consumer discretionary sectors underperformed relative to the S&P 500 Index. Stock selection in the financials and consumer discretionary sectors detracted from relative performance, as certain Fund holdings in those sectors were negatively impacted by market volatility and a dampening of consumer sentiment over the period.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of peripheral Europe and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier asset classes, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, the disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. Behind this backdrop, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
The top contributor for the Fund during the period was health care insurer WellPoint, Inc., which rebounded from previous weakness amid rising enrollment trends and a deceleration in the rise of medical costs. Tobacco producer Philip Morris International, Inc. advanced due to skillful execution of its business plan, including greater penetration of developing markets. Integrated energy giant Chevron Corp. gained value along with energy-related commodity prices, which proved especially beneficial to its refinery operations. Tyco International Ltd. benefited from mergers-and-acquisitions speculation and a positive outlook for its security division.
     Among detractors from performance, automaker Ford Motor Co.’s stock declined amid deteriorating investor sentiment, despite gains in market share and better-than-expected earnings in the second quarter. In financials, Wells Fargo & Co., like other large banks, underperformed amid concerns regarding low lending demand, elevated foreclosure activity and a more stringent regulatory environment. Results of internet media giant Google, Inc. disappointed investors focused on short-term results due to higher marketing and staffing costs. Google’s market share continues to rise. We exited our position in Wells Fargo & Co. by period end.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
Outlook
Although we expect the economic recovery to remain choppy, our extensive analyses of individual companies suggest that corporate fundamentals generally remain strong. Many companies are flush with cash, and earnings have continued to grow. In our judgment, large companies are likely to put idle cash to work through mergers-and-acquisitions activity, share buybacks or dividend increases. As portfolio managers who emphasize a bottom-up stock selection investment approach, the Fund’s strategy is driven primarily by our assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of individual companies.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and, if available, the Fund’s summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor or calling us at 1.800.988.8287. Read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, carefully before investing.
Total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. Cumulative total returns are not annualized.
The Fund’s investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Service Shares
    1,000.00       1,019.69       5.17  
Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios  
 
Non-Service Shares
    0.78 %
Service Shares
    1.03  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
    Level 1–     Level 2–     Level 3–

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Main Street Fund/VA (the “Fund”), is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek high total return. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a distribution and service plan. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
     In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through
14 | OPPENHEIMER MAIN STREET FUND/VA

 


 

its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Foreign Currency Translation. The Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign investment income are translated into U.S. dollars as of the close of the Exchange, normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading. Foreign exchange rates may be valued primarily using a reliable bank, dealer or service authorized by the Board of Trustees.
     Reported net realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, exchange rate fluctuations between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
     The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $118,380,559 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:
         
Expiring        
 
2016
  $ 99,612,647  
2017
    332,195,657  
 
     
Total
  $ 431,808,304  
 
     
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an estimated capital loss carryforward of $381,437,214 expiring by 2017. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $50,371,090 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.
         
Federal tax cost of securities
  $ 1,220,077,592

Net unrealized appreciation
  $ 355,976,536  
 
     
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded
16 | OPPENHEIMER MAIN STREET FUND/VA

 


 

on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest of each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

3. Purchases and Sales of Securities
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other than short-term obligations and investments in IMMF, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, were as follows:
                 
    Purchases     Sales  
 
Investment securities
  $ 332,186,240     $ 448,086,838  
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $200 million
    0.75 %
Next $200 million
    0.72  
Next $200 million
    0.69  
Next $200 million
    0.66  
Over $800 million
    0.60  
Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $819,373 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.80% for Non-Service shares and 1.05% for Service shares.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $15,827 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments
The Fund’s investment objectives not only permit the Fund to purchase investment securities, they also allow the Fund to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, the Fund will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase, decrease, or change the level or types of exposure to market risk factors. Central to those strategies are features inherent to derivatives that make them more attractive for this purpose than equity and debt securities: they require little or
18 | OPPENHEIMER MAIN STREET FUND/VA

 


 

no initial cash investment, they can focus exposure on only certain selected risk factors, and they may not require the ultimate receipt or delivery of the underlying security (or securities) to the contract. This may allow the Fund to pursue its objectives more quickly and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of effecting a similar response to market factors.
Market Risk Factors. In accordance with its investment objectives, the Fund may use derivatives to increase or decrease its exposure to one or more of the following market risk factors:
Commodity Risk. Commodity risk relates to the change in value of commodities or commodity indexes as they relate to increases or decreases in the commodities market. Commodities are physical assets that have tangible properties. Examples of these types of assets are crude oil, heating oil, metals, livestock, and agricultural products.
Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.
Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.
Volatility Risk. Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.
The Fund’s actual exposures to these market risk factors during the period are discussed in further detail, by derivative type, below.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. The Fund’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Fund is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market risk factors for securities held by the Fund, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
     Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance.
     Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and the Fund. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Fund is attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per its investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives. Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by each derivative type in the notes that follow.

Counterparty Credit Risk. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. The Fund’s derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. The Fund intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that the Manager believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction.
Credit Related Contingent Features. The Fund’s agreements with derivative counterparties have several credit related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivatives counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from the Fund. Credit related contingent features are established between the Fund and its derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that the Fund will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in the Fund’s net assets and or a percentage decrease in the Fund’s Net Asset Value or NAV. The contingent features are established within the Fund’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements which govern certain positions in swaps, over-the-counter options and swaptions, and forward currency exchange contracts for each individual counterparty.
The effect of derivative instruments on the Statement of Operations is as follows:

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Fund may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) for the purchase or sale of a foreign currency at a negotiated rate at a future date.
     Forward contracts are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments. Forward contracts will be valued daily based upon the closing prices of the forward currency rates determined at the close of the Exchange as provided by a bank, dealer or pricing service. The resulting unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and in the Statement of Operations within the change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). At contract close, the difference between the original cost of the contract and the value at the close date is recorded as a realized gain (loss) in the Statement of Operations.
     The Fund has purchased and sold certain forward foreign currency exchange contracts of different currencies in order to acquire currencies to pay for related foreign securities purchase transactions, or to convert foreign currencies to U.S. dollars from related foreign securities sale transactions. These foreign currency exchange contracts are negotiated at the current spot exchange rate with settlement typically within two business days thereafter.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had daily average contract amounts on forward foreign currency contracts to buy of $73,966.
     Additional associated risk to the Fund includes counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk arises from the possibility that the counterparty will default.
     As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had no outstanding forward contracts.
6. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not

followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance and expense ratios may be lower or higher than the data quoted. For performance data current to the most recent month end, call us at 1.800.988.8287. The Fund’s total returns should not be expected to be the same as the returns of other funds, whether or not both funds have the same portfolio managers and/or similar names. The Fund’s total returns do not include the charges associated with the separate account products that offer this Fund. Performance would have been lower if such charges were taken into account. The net expense ratios take into account voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which performance would have been less. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. Expense ratios are as stated in the Fund’s prospectus, current as of the date of this report.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
For the six-month reporting period ended June 30, 2011, the Fund’s Non-Service Shares produced a return of 7.64%. In comparison, Russell 2500 Index (the “Index”) produced a return of 8.06% and the Russell 2000 Index returned 6.21% over the same period. The Fund’s underperformance was primarily a result of weaker relative stock selection over the first half of the reporting period, when the market was in more of a speculative phase that tended to favor what we consider to be lower-quality securities.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of peripheral Europe and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier asset classes, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, the disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. Behind this backdrop, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending.
     The macroeconomic setbacks that occurred over the first half of 2011 sparked sharp declines among small- and mid-cap stocks in the final weeks of the period. Small-cap stocks generally lagged broader market averages during this time, but mid-cap stocks held up better, outperforming their large-cap counterparts. In a more uncertain investment climate, investors shifted their focus away from small-cap stocks, and from economically sensitive industry groups to those that historically have held up relatively well in times of economic weakness, such as stocks in the consumer staples sector. Energy, industrials and information technology securities led the stock market retreat in the final three months of the period. Energy firms were hit with higher costs and supply chain interruptions, in part caused by the natural disaster in Japan. The market also saw information technology companies stocks as potentially at risk for supply chain disruptions, particularly those companies domiciled in Japan or with key suppliers based in Japan, which fueled a sell-off in that sector. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, the Index finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing slow economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
The top contributor for the Fund during the reporting period was oil refiner Holly Corp., which saw profit margins expand when it tapped lower-cost sources of crude oil. Holly Corp. and Frontier Oil, two large oil refiners, issued a statement in the first quarter of the year that they had agreed upon an all-stock merger that would give the company a value of approximately $7 billion and would create one of the biggest oil refiners in the western United States.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
The stock rose on the news of the impending completion of the merger, which was completed in July 2011. The Fund maintained a position in the merged company, HollyFrontier Corp. In the consumer discretionary sector, fashion accessories retailer Fossil, Inc. announced better-than-expected financial results stemming from effective cost management, increased demand in its core watch business and robust growth in Asia. The firm continued to build out its brand as it gained momentum as a world leader in watch production and design. In the health care sector, managed care provider HealthSpring, Inc. benefited from rising enrollment trends, particularly in Medicare Advantage programs, as well as a deceleration in the rise of medical costs. Information technology company Polycom, Inc., which makes teleconferencing equipment, benefited performance. Sales and earnings estimates have been rising as the company gains market share with new products, and sales have increased with major equipment reseller partners such as Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft. We trimmed our position as Polycom approached our price target, but continue to expect solid long-term results. Also within information technology, semiconductor equipment manufacturer Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates, Inc. was acquired by Applied Materials at a premium to its then-prevailing stock price. Health care and information technology were the two strongest outperforming sectors for the Fund relative to the Index.
     Among detractors from performance, mortgage insurance provider MGIC Investment Corp. was hurt by news of ongoing defaults in a persistently troubled U.S. housing market. For-profit education company Cappella Education Co. continued to disappoint when management failed to take decisive action in adjusting to a new regulatory environment, prompting us to sell the Fund’s position in the company. Gastroenterology specialist Salix Pharmaceuticals Ltd. suffered a setback when the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requested additional studies before approval of a new drug. Other laggards over the first half of 2011 included network optimization and security specialist Blue Coat Systems, Inc. and audio technology company Dolby Laboratories, Inc., both of which we exited by period end. On a relative basis, the Fund underperformed the Index primarily in consumer staples and industrials, due to weaker stock selection.
Outlook
Consistent with our bottom-up approach to security selection, we have maintained a generally sector-neutral investment posture that enables us to focus more intently on our stock selection process. As of period end, our extensive analyses of individual companies suggest that corporate fundamentals generally remain strong. Many companies are flush with cash, and earnings have continued to grow. In our judgment, large companies are likely to put idle cash to work by acquiring smaller companies in similar or complementary businesses.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated fund, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios
 
Non-Service shares
    0.80 %
Service shares
    1.05  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
    Level 1—     Level 2—     Level 3—

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Main Street Small- & Mid-Cap Fund/VA (the “Fund”), formerly Oppenheimer Main Street Small Cap Fund/VA, is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a distribution and service plan. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
     In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring

before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Foreign Currency Translation. The Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign investment income are translated into U.S. dollars as of the close of the Exchange, normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading. Foreign exchange rates may be valued primarily using a reliable bank, dealer or service authorized by the Board of Trustees.
     Reported net realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, exchange rate fluctuations between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
     The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state

jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $46,413,192 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:
         
Expiring        
 
2016
  $ 45,463,528  
2017
    161,762,514  
 
     
Total
  $ 207,226,042  
 
     
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an estimated capital loss carryforward of $91,984,374 expiring by 2017. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $115,241,668 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.
         
Federal tax cost of securities
  $ 789,594,190  
 
     
 
       
Gross unrealized appreciation
  $ 196,518,932  
Gross unrealized depreciation
    (14,293,017 )
 
     
Net unrealized appreciation
  $ 182,225,915  
 
     
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  $ 547,788,433     $ 600,837,663  
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $200 million
    0.75 %
Next $200 million
    0.72  
Next $200 million
    0.69  
Next $200 million
    0.66  
Over $800 million
    0.60  
Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $482,693 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.80% for Non-Service shares and 1.05% for Service shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $13,958 and $126,315 for Non-Service and Service shares, respectively.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $6,713 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
5. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. Yields are annualized and include dividends in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. For performance data current to the most recent month end, call us at 1.800.988.8287. The Fund’s performance should not be expected to be the same as the returns of other funds, whether or not both funds have the same portfolio managers and/or similar names. The Fund’s performance does not include the charges associated with the separate account products that offer this Fund. Such performance would have been lower if such charges were taken into account. The yields take into account voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which yields would have been lower. Some of these undertakings may be modified at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
Portfolio Allocation
(PIE CHART)
Portfolio holdings and allocations are subject to change. Percentages are as of June 30, 2011, and are based on the total market value of investments.
Fund Performance Discussion
The Fund’s yield remained at historical lows as the Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) left short-term interest rates unchanged in a range between 0% and 0.25% during an uneven economic recovery. While the Fund generated little income during the reporting period, we remained successful in our efforts to preserve capital and maintain liquidity for the Fund’s shareholders.
Economic and Market Environment
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of peripheral Europe and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION Continued
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier assets, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock on March 11, when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, the disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. Government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. As a result, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Portfolio Strategy
We continued to maintain a conservative investment posture, carefully monitoring the health of the financial institutions that issue money market instruments. We typically focused on commercial paper and time deposits from high-quality issuers, and we avoided non-traditional repurchase agreements.
     For much of the reporting period, we maintained the Fund’s weighted average maturity in a range that was in line with industry averages. However, over the second half of the reporting period, we responded to the decreased likelihood of rate hikes from the Fed by increasing the Fund’s weighted average maturity to a slightly longer-than-average position.
     We expect the choppy economic recovery to continue, but we believe a subpar GDP growth rate means that the Fed will likely maintain its current course of keeping interest rates at historic lows, and money market yields seem poised to remain at or near current levels for some time. Although the Fed ended QE2, the market has appeared to push back its expectations of higher short-term interest rates given the continued slow rate of economic growth. Accordingly, we remain focused primarily on capital preservation and liquidity. In addition, it is worth noting that regulators are considering additional changes to the rules governing money market funds. We are monitoring the debate closely, and we will adjust our investment strategies as needed.
An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and, if available, the Fund’s summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor or calling us at 1.800.988.8287. Read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, carefully before investing.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

    Account     Account     Paid During  
    Value     Value     6 Months Ended  
    January 1, 2011     June 30, 2011     June 30, 2011

(5% return before expenses)
                       
 
    1,000.00       1,023.31       1.51  
Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). The annualized expense ratio based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 is as follows:
Expense Ratio
     0.30%
The expense ratio reflects voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” table in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also shows the gross expense ratio, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

Footnotes to Statement of Investments
Short-term notes and direct bank obligations are generally traded on a discount basis; the interest rate shown is the discount rate received by the Fund at the time of purchase. Other securities normally bear interest at the rates shown.
     
*   The Maturity Date represents the date used to calculate the Fund’s weighted average maturity as determined under Rule 2a-7.
 
**   If different from the Maturity Date, the Final Legal Maturity Date includes any maturity date extensions which may be affected at the option of the issuer or unconditional payments of principal by the issuer which may be affected at the option of the Fund, and represents the date used to calculate the Fund’s weighted average life.
 
1.   Represents the current interest rate for a variable or increasing rate security.
 
2.   Security issued in an exempt transaction without registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Such securities amount to $28,693,851 or 18.69% of the Fund’s net assets, and have been determined to be liquid pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
                    Level 3—

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Money Fund/VA (the “Fund”) is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek maximum current income from investments in “money market” securities consistent with low capital risk and the maintenance of liquidity. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. Securities are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value. If amortized cost is determined not to approximate market value, the fair value of the portfolio securities will be determined under procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
     The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other

12 | OPPENHEIMER MONEY FUND/VA


 

Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually but may be paid at other times to maintain the net asset value per share at $1.00. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
Investment Income. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $500 million
    0.450 %
Next $500 million
    0.425  
Next $500 million
    0.400  
Over $1.5 billion
    0.375  
Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of its daily net assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $72,729 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily undertaken to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to assist the Fund in attempting to maintain a positive yield. There is no guarantee that the Fund will maintain a positive yield. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $217,903.
     The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as a percentage of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.50%.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
4. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and

14 | OPPENHEIMER MONEY FUND/VA


 

assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

The performance data quoted represents past performance, which does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance and expense ratios may be lower or higher than the data quoted. Returns do not consider capital gains or income taxes. For performance data current to the most recent month end, call us at 1.800.988.8287. The Fund’s total returns should not be expected to be the same as the returns of other funds, whether or not both funds have the same portfolio managers and/or similar names. The Fund’s total returns do not include the charges associated with the separate account products that offer this Fund. Such performance would have been lower if such charges were taken into account. The net expense ratios take into account voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which performance would have been less. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. Expense ratios are as stated in the Fund’s prospectus, current as of the date of this report.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, the Fund’s Non-Service Shares provided a return of 4.79%. In comparison, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 2.72% and the Citigroup World Government Bond Index returned 4.00%.
     Despite volatility stemming from a sovereign debt crisis in Europe, natural disasters in Japan, political uprisings in the Middle East and a contentious political debate in the United States, global fixed-income securities held up relatively well, on average, over the reporting period. The Fund produced higher returns than its benchmarks, primarily due to strong results from high yield corporate bonds.
Economic and Market Overview
2011 began on an optimistic note as investors responded positively to an accelerating U.S. economic recovery, better-than-expected economic data in Europe and strong corporate earnings across a number of regions. Consequently, investors began the year with an ample appetite for risk, sparking gains among high yield bonds and emerging-market securities. In contrast, high-quality sovereign debt, including U.S. government securities, lagged market averages at the time as investors focused on higher-yielding securities.
     However, several unexpected macroeconomic developments soon called the global economic recovery into question. Political uprisings in North Africa and the Middle East in February fueled a sharp rise in energy prices, and natural and nuclear disasters hit Japan in March, disrupting one of the world’s larger economies and potentially upsetting the global industrial supply chain for some industries. Yet, investor sentiment rebounded relatively quickly from these setbacks, and investors returned their attention to higher-yielding, lower-rated segments of the U.S. and global bond markets.
     In late April, investor sentiment began to deteriorate in earnest when Greece teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, reigniting concerns last seen in 2010 regarding the possible spread of a sovereign debt crisis to other peripheral members of the European Union. In addition, persistently high unemployment and a pressured housing market weighed on investor sentiment in the United States, as did an intensifying debate about government spending and borrowing. These developments sparked a reversal of fortune in the global bond markets as formerly high-flying corporate bonds gave back some of their previous gains and traditional safe havens rallied, driving prices of U.S. government securities and the sovereign debt of other fiscally sound nations higher. In the emerging markets, bonds generally remained under pressure from measures designed to forestall an acceleration of inflation, including tighter monetary policies imposed in China, India and other fast-growing economies.
Fund Review
The Fund received especially robust results from high yield corporate bonds, which traditionally have provided a degree of protection from fluctuating interest rates. The Fund’s focus on bonds with B and CCC ratings, and a corresponding de-emphasis on BB-rated bonds, enhanced returns within the high yield sector. The Fund also benefited from an allocation to senior floating-rate bank loans, which historically have tended to do well in rising interest-rate environments, through its investment in Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC.
     Among U.S. government securities, the Fund favored mortgage-backed securities backed by U.S. government agencies over lower yielding U.S. Treasury securities. The Fund also invested in non-agency mortgage-backed securities. These securities fared well over the first half of 2011 due to lower-than-average prepayment rates, contributing positively to the Fund’s relative performance during that time.
     As has been the case for some time, the Fund’s international investments focused more on bonds in the emerging markets than in developed markets. This positioning helped bolster the Fund’s relative results. The Fund received especially strong contributions to performance from bonds in markets where inflation-adjusted yields remained relatively high, such as Brazil, South Africa and Mexico. The Fund’s developed markets positions had a mild bias favoring corporate securities over sovereign bonds.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
     Although the Fund suffered relatively few disappointments during the reporting period, it experienced losses in certain areas, particularly over the second half of the period. An emphasis on the euro over the Japanese yen proved ineffective when the European sovereign debt crisis intensified. As the markets witnessed increased volatility and investors became more risk averse, the Fund’s investments in mortgage-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities detracted from performance, as did certain higher yielding investments. While the Fund’s performance pulled back to a degree over the second half of the period, the losses did not nearly offset the gains witnessed earlier in the period.
Outlook
Despite a currently cloudy near-term outlook stemming from political uncertainties in Europe and the United States, we remain cautiously optimistic regarding the longer-term prospects of global fixed-income markets. As the global economy moves to the next phase of the economic cycle, we expect longer-term bond yields to rise in most sovereign debt markets, and the emerging markets should continue to enjoy robust economic growth. The corporate sector may offer better opportunities for current income and potential price appreciation. We also have identified attractive opportunities among U.S. mortgage-backed securities.
     Please remember that bonds are exposed to credit and interest rate risks (when interest rates rise, bond/fund prices generally fall). The Fund may invest in foreign securities, which entail special risks (such as currency fluctuations and political factors) and may have higher expenses and volatility. The Fund also invests in derivative instruments, investments whose values depend on the performance of an underlying security, asset, interest rate, index or currency and entail potentially higher volatility and risk of loss compared to traditional stock or bond investments. The Fund may invest in below-investment-grade (“junk”) bonds, which are more at risk of default and are subject to liquidity risk. See the prospectus for more information on the risks associated with investing in the Fund.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and, if available, the Fund’s summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor or calling us at 1.800.988.8287. Read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, carefully before investing.
Total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. Cumulative total returns are not annualized.
The Fund’s investment strategy and focus can change over time. The mention of specific fund holdings does not constitute a recommendation by OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

Service Shares
    1,000.00       1,019.98       4.87  
Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratio for that class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period). Those annualized expense ratios, excluding indirect expenses from affiliated funds, based on the 6-month period ended June 30, 2011 are as follows:
         
Class   Expense Ratios
 
Non-Service Shares
    0.72 %
Service Shares
    0.97  
The expense ratios reflect voluntary waivers and/or reimbursements of expenses by the Fund’s Manager. Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus. The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

5.   This security is accruing partial income at an anticipated effective rate based on expected interest and/or principal payments. The rate shown is the original contractual interest rate.
 
6.   Interest-Only Strips represent the right to receive the monthly interest payments on an underlying pool of mortgage loans. These securities typically decline in price as interest rates decline. Most other fixed income securities increase in price when interest rates decline. The principal amount of the underlying pool represents the notional amount on which current interest is calculated. The price of these securities is typically more sensitive to changes in prepayment rates than traditional mortgage-backed securities (for example, GNMA pass-throughs). Interest rates disclosed represent current yields based upon the current cost basis and estimated timing and amount of future cash flows. These securities amount to $11,772,648 or 0.48% of the Fund’s net assets as of June 30, 2011.
 
7.   When-issued security or delayed delivery to be delivered and settled after June 30, 2011. See Note 1 of the accompanying Notes.
 
8.   All or a portion of the security position is held in collateral accounts to cover the Fund’s obligations under certain derivative contracts. The aggregate market value of such securities is $3,813,305. See Note 5 of the accompanying Notes.
 
9.   All or a portion of the security position is held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts and written options on futures, if applicable. The aggregate market value of such securities is $11,848,876. See Note 5 of the accompanying Notes.
 
10.   Zero coupon bond reflects effective yield on the date of purchase.
 
11.   Denotes an inflation-indexed security: coupon or principal are indexed to a consumer price index.
 
12.   Interest or dividend is paid-in-kind, when applicable.
 
13.   This bond has no contractual maturity date, is not redeemable and contractually pays an indefinite stream of interest. Rate reported represents the current interest rate for this variable rate security.
 
14.   Denotes a step bond: a zero coupon bond that converts to a fixed or variable interest rate at a designated future date.
 
15.   Non-income producing security.
 
16.   Is or was an affiliate, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, at or during the period ended June 30, 2011, by virtue of the Fund owning at least 5% of the voting securities of the issuer or as a result of the Fund and the issuer having the same investment adviser.

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
    Level 1–     Level 2–     Level 3–

Currency contracts and forwards, if any, are reported at their unrealized appreciation/depreciation at measurement date, which represents the change in the contract’s value from trade date. Futures, if any, are reported at their variation margin at measurement date, which represents the amount due to/from the Fund at that date. All additional assets and liabilities included in the above table are reported at their market value at measurement date.
The table below shows the significant transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3. The Fund’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out as of the beginning of the reporting period.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Global Strategic Income Fund/VA (the “Fund”) is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income principally derived from interest on debt securities. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a distribution and service plan. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
     Structured securities are valued utilizing price quotations obtained from broker-dealers or independent pricing services. Values are determined based upon market inputs which typically include the price of underlying financial instruments, stock market indices, foreign currencies, interest rate spreads, commodities, or the occurrence of other specific events.
59 | OPPENHEIMER GLOBAL STRATEGIC INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
     Swap contracts are valued utilizing price quotations obtained from broker-dealer counterparties or independent pricing services. Values are determined based on relevant market information on the underlying reference assets which may include credit spreads, credit event probabilities, index values, individual security values, forward interest rates, variable interest rates, volatility measures and forward currency rates.
     Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued utilizing current and forward currency rates obtained from independent pricing services.
     Loans are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” price, as typically obtained from independent pricing services. These prices are determined based upon information obtained from market participants including the average of broker-dealer price quotations. Loans may also be valued based upon price quotations obtained directly from a broker-dealer. Price quotations provided by broker-dealers may be based on reported trade data, to the extent the loan has recently traded.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
     In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. As of June 30, 2011, the Manager determined the fair value of certain notes using internal models based on anticipated cash flows and/or residual value. The Manager fair valued certain thinly traded collateralized debt obligations using monthly broker-dealer price quotations. For certain common and preferred stock that do not trade, the Manager has determined the fair value of these securities using internal models utilizing manager assumptions, comparable security inputs and the company’s quarterly financial statements. Such investments have been classified as Level 3 instruments.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Structured Securities. The Fund invests in structured securities whose market values, interest rates and/or redemption prices are linked to the performance of underlying foreign currencies, interest rate spreads, stock market indices, prices of individual securities, commodities or other financial instruments or the occurrence of other specific events. The structured securities are often leveraged, increasing the volatility of each note’s market value relative to the change in the underlying linked financial element or event. Fluctuations in value of these securities are recorded as unrealized gains and losses in the accompanying Statement of Operations. The Fund records a realized gain or loss when a structured security is sold or matures.
Securities on a When-Issued or Delayed Delivery Basis. The Fund may purchase securities on a “when-issued” basis, and may purchase or sell securities on a “delayed delivery” basis. “When-issued” or “delayed delivery” refers to securities whose terms and indenture are available and for which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate delivery. Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by the Fund on a when-issued basis normally takes place within six months and possibly as long as two years or more after the trade date. During this period, such
60 | OPPENHEIMER GLOBAL STRATEGIC INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The purchase of securities on a when-issued basis may increase the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value to the extent the Fund executes such transactions while remaining substantially fully invested. When the Fund engages in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions, it relies on the buyer or seller, as the case may be, to complete the transaction. Their failure to do so may cause the Fund to lose the opportunity to obtain or dispose of the security at a price and yield it considers advantageous. The Fund may also sell securities that it purchased on a when-issued basis or forward commitment prior to settlement of the original purchase.
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had purchased securities issued on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis and sold securities issued on a delayed delivery basis as follows:
         
    When-Issued or Delayed  
    Delivery Basis Transactions  
 
Purchased securities
  $ 135,398,511  
Sold securities
    43,844,016  
The Fund may enter into “forward roll” transactions with respect to mortgage-related securities. In this type of transaction, the Fund sells a mortgage-related security to a buyer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security (same type, coupon and maturity) at a later date at a set price. During the period between the sale and the repurchase, the Fund will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities that have been sold. The Fund records the incremental difference between the forward purchase and sale of each forward roll as realized gain (loss) on investments or as fee income in the case of such transactions that have an associated fee in lieu of a difference in the forward purchase and sale price.
     Forward roll transactions may be deemed to entail embedded leverage since the Fund purchases mortgage-related securities with extended settlement dates rather than paying for the securities under a normal settlement cycle. This embedded leverage increases the Fund’s market value of investments relative to its net assets which can incrementally increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance. Forward roll transactions can be replicated over multiple settlement periods.
     Risks of entering into forward roll transactions include the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the agreement; the potential of the Fund to receive inferior securities at redelivery as compared to the securities sold to the counterparty; and counterparty credit risk.
Credit Risk. The Fund invests in high-yield, non-investment-grade bonds, which may be subject to a greater degree of credit risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest or principal payments or both as they become due. The Fund may acquire securities that have missed an interest payment, and is not obligated to dispose of securities whose issuers or underlying obligors subsequently miss an interest payment. Information concerning securities not accruing interest as of June 30, 2011 is as follows:
         
Cost
  $ 26,039,539  
Market Value
  $ 1,969,801  
Market Value as a % of Net Assets
    0.08 %
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.

Investment in Oppenheimer Master Funds. The Fund is permitted to invest in entities sponsored and/or advised by the Manager or an affiliate. Certain of these entities in which the Fund invests are mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 that expect to be treated as partnerships for tax purposes, specifically Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC and Oppenheimer Master Event-Linked Bond Fund, LLC (the “Master Funds”). Each Master Fund has its own investment risks, and those risks can affect the value of the Fund’s investments and therefore the value of the Fund’s shares. To the extent that the Fund invests more of its assets in one Master Fund than in another, the Fund will have greater exposure to the risks of that Master Fund.
     The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Loan Fund, LLC is to seek as high a level of current income and preservation of capital as is consistent with investing primarily in loans and other debt securities. The investment objective of Oppenheimer Master Event-Linked Bond Fund, LLC is to seek a high level of current income principally derived from interest on debt securities. The Fund’s investments in the Master Funds are included in the Statement of Investments. The Fund recognizes income and gain/(loss) on its investments in each Master Fund according to its allocated pro-rata share, based on its relative proportion of total outstanding Master Fund shares held, of the total net income earned and the net gain/(loss) realized on investments sold by the Master Funds. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of the Master Funds’ expenses, including their management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in the Master Funds.
Foreign Currency Translation. The Fund’s accounting records are maintained in U.S. dollars. The values of securities denominated in foreign currencies and amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and foreign investment income are translated into U.S. dollars as of the close of the Exchange, normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading. Foreign exchange rates may be valued primarily using a reliable bank, dealer or service authorized by the Board of Trustees.
     Reported net realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, exchange rate fluctuations between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies arise from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
     The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Fund’s Statement of Operations.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
     During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $161,264,243 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes post-October losses of $42,644,008 which will expire in 2019 if unutilized and straddle losses of $247,177.
62 | OPPENHEIMER GLOBAL STRATEGIC INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

     As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes no estimated capital loss carryforward. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $42,891,185 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.
         
Federal tax cost of securities
  $ 2,488,870,603  
Federal tax cost of other investments
    137,579,283

Gross unrealized depreciation
    (153,214,178 )

  $ 19,716,687  
 
     
Certain foreign countries impose a tax on capital gains which is accrued by the Fund based on unrealized appreciation, if any, on affected securities. The tax is paid when the gain is realized.
     The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest

    570,420,039       560,904,505  
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Under the investment advisory agreement, the Fund pays the Manager a management fee based on the daily net assets of the Fund at an annual rate as shown in the following table:
         
Fee Schedule        
Up to $200 million
    0.75 %
Next $200 million
    0.72  
Next $200 million
    0.69  
Next $200 million
    0.66  
Next $200 million
    0.60  
Over $1 billion
    0.50  
Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $1,199,518 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.75% for Non-Service shares and 1.00% for Service shares.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investments in IMMF and the Master Funds. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $646,330 for management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.

5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments
The Fund’s investment objectives not only permit the Fund to purchase investment securities, they also allow the Fund to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, the Fund will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase, decrease, or change the level or types of exposure to market risk factors. Central to those strategies are features inherent to derivatives that make them more attractive for this purpose than equity and debt securities: they require little or no initial cash investment, they can focus exposure on only certain selected risk factors, and they may not require the ultimate receipt or delivery of the underlying security (or securities) to the contract. This may allow the Fund to pursue its objectives more quickly and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of effecting a similar response to market factors.
Market Risk Factors. In accordance with its investment objectives, the Fund may use derivatives to increase or decrease its exposure to one or more of the following market risk factors:
Commodity Risk. Commodity risk relates to the change in value of commodities or commodity indexes as they relate to increases or decreases in the commodities market. Commodities are physical assets that have tangible properties. Examples of these types of assets are crude oil, heating oil, metals, livestock, and agricultural products.
Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.
Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.
Volatility Risk. Volatility risk refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.
The Fund’s actual exposures to these market risk factors during the period are discussed in further detail, by derivative type, below.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. The Fund’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Fund is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market risk factors for securities held by the Fund, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
     Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to
66 | OPPENHEIMER GLOBAL STRATEGIC INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance.
     Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and the Fund. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Fund is attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per its investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives. Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by each derivative type in the notes that follow.
Counterparty Credit Risk. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Fund. The Fund’s derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. The Fund intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that the Manager believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. As of June 30, 2011, the maximum amount of loss that the Fund would incur if the counterparties to its derivative transactions failed to perform would be $7,714,857, which represents gross payments to be received by the Fund on these derivative contracts were they to be unwound as of period end. To reduce this risk the Fund has entered into master netting arrangements, established within the Fund’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements, which allow the Fund to net unrealized appreciation and depreciation for certain positions in swaps, over-the-counter options, swaptions, and forward currency exchange contracts for each individual counterparty. The amount of loss that the Fund would incur taking into account these master netting arrangements would be $1,140,117 as of June 30, 2011. In addition, the Fund may require that certain counterparties post cash and/or securities in collateral accounts to cover their net payment obligations for those derivative contracts subject to International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements. If the counterparty fails to perform under these contracts and agreements, the cash and/or securities will be made available to the Fund.
     As of June 30, 2011 the Fund has required certain counterparties to post collateral of $2,229,331.
Credit Related Contingent Features. The Fund’s agreements with derivative counterparties have several credit related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivatives counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from the Fund. Credit related contingent features are established between the Fund and its derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that the Fund will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in the Fund’s net assets and or a percentage decrease in the Fund’s Net Asset Value or NAV. The contingent features are established within the Fund’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements which govern certain positions in swaps, over-the-counter options and swaptions, and forward currency exchange contracts for each individual counterparty.
     As of June 30, 2011, the aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit related contingent features in a net liability position was $6,683,532 for which the Fund has posted collateral of $3,813,305. If a contingent feature would have been triggered as of June 30, 2011, the Fund could have been required to pay this amount in cash to its counterparties. If the Fund fails to perform under these contracts and agreements, the cash and/or securities posted as collateral will be made available to the counterparty. Cash posted as collateral for these contracts, if any, is reported on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities; securities posted as collateral, if any, are reported on the Statement of Investments.

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
The Fund may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) for the purchase or sale of a foreign currency at a negotiated rate at a future date.
     Forward contracts are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments. Forward contracts will be valued daily based upon the closing prices of the forward currency rates determined at the close of the Exchange as provided by a bank, dealer or pricing service. The resulting unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a receivable or payable and in the Statement of Operations within the change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation). At contract close, the difference between the original cost of the contract and the value at the close date is recorded as a realized gain (loss) in the Statement of Operations.
     The Fund has purchased and sold certain forward foreign currency exchange contracts of different currencies in order to acquire currencies to pay for related foreign securities purchase transactions, or to convert foreign currencies to U.S. dollars from related foreign securities sale transactions. These foreign currency exchange contracts are negotiated at the current spot exchange rate with settlement typically within two business days thereafter.
     The Fund has entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts with the obligation to purchase specified foreign currencies in the future at a currently negotiated forward rate in order to take a positive investment perspective on the related currency. These forward foreign currency exchange contracts seek to increase exposure to foreign exchange rate risk.
     The Fund has entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts with the obligation to purchase specified foreign currencies in the future at a currently negotiated forward rate in order to decrease exposure to foreign exchange rate risk associated with foreign currency denominated securities held by the Fund.
     The Fund has entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts with the obligation to sell specified foreign currencies in the future at a currently negotiated forward rate in order to take a negative investment perspective on the related currency. These forward foreign currency exchange contracts seek to increase exposure to foreign exchange rate risk.
     The Fund has entered into forward foreign currency exchange contracts with the obligation to sell specified foreign currencies in the future at a currently negotiated forward rate in order to decrease exposure to foreign exchange rate risk associated with foreign currency denominated securities held by the Fund.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had daily average contract amounts on forward foreign currency contracts to buy and sell of $680,914,325 and $280,280,733, respectively.
     Additional associated risk to the Fund includes counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk arises from the possibility that the counterparty will default.
Futures Contracts
A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future date. The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts and may also buy or write put or call options on these futures contracts.
     Futures contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when the Fund’s assets are valued.
     Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses.
     Futures contracts are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of Investments. Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts and the receivable and/or payable for the daily mark to market for the variation margin are noted in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is reported in the Statement of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported in the Statement of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.

     The Fund has purchased futures contracts on various bonds and notes to increase exposure to interest rate risk.
     The Fund has sold futures contracts on various bonds and notes to decrease exposure to interest rate risk.
     The Fund has purchased futures contracts on various equity indexes to increase exposure to equity risk.
     The Fund has sold futures contracts on various equity indexes to decrease exposure to equity risk.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had an ending monthly average market value of $448,688,784 and $244,820,002 on futures contracts purchased and sold, respectively.
     Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where the Fund is unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of the Fund’s securities.
Option Activity
The Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write put and call options. When an option is written, the Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to sell or purchase the underlying security at a fixed price, upon exercise of the option.
     Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the option is traded. The difference between the premium received or paid, and market value of the option, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. The net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation is reported in the Statement of Operations. When an option is exercised, the cost of the security purchased or the proceeds of the security sale are adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Upon the expiration or closing of the option transaction, a gain or loss is reported in the Statement of Operations.
     The Fund has purchased call options on currencies to increase exposure to foreign exchange rate risk. A purchased call option becomes more valuable as the price of the underlying financial instrument appreciates relative to the strike price.
     The Fund has purchased put options on currencies to decrease exposure to foreign exchange rate risk. A purchased put option becomes more valuable as the price of the underlying financial instrument depreciates relative to the strike price.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had an ending monthly average market value of $8,422 and $132,182 on purchased call options and purchased put options, respectively.
     Options written, if any, are reported in a schedule following the Statement of Investments and as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover potential obligations with respect to outstanding written options are noted in the Statement of Investments.
     The risk in writing a call option is that the Fund gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The Fund also has the additional risk that there may be an illiquid market where the Fund is unable to close the contract.
     The Fund has written put options on currencies to increase exposure to foreign exchange rate risk. A written put option becomes more valuable as the price of the underlying financial instrument appreciates relative to the strike price.
     The Fund has written call options on currencies to decrease exposure to foreign exchange rate risk. A written call option becomes more valuable as the price of the underlying financial instrument depreciates relative to the strike price.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had an ending monthly average market value of $118,712 and $3,133 on written call options and written put options, respectively.
     Additional associated risks to the Fund include counterparty credit risk for over-the-counter options and liquidity risk.

Swap Contracts
The Fund may enter into swap contract agreements with a counterparty to exchange a series of cash flows based on either specified reference rates, or the occurrence of a credit event, over a specified period. Such contracts may include interest rate, equity, debt, index, total return, credit and currency swaps.
     Swaps are marked to market daily using primarily quotations from pricing services, counterparties and brokers. Swap contracts are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments. The values of swap contracts are aggregated by positive and negative values and disclosed separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities by contracts in unrealized appreciation and depreciation positions. Upfront payments paid or received, if any, affect the value of the respective swap. Therefore, to determine the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swaps, upfront payments paid should be subtracted from, while upfront payments received should be added to, the value of contracts reported as an asset on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Conversely, upfront payments paid should be added to, while upfront payments received should be subtracted from the value of contracts reported as a liability. The unrealized appreciation (depreciation) related to the change in the valuation of the notional amount of the swap is combined with the accrued interest due to (owed by) the Fund at termination or settlement. The net change in this amount during the period is included on the Statement of Operations. The Fund also records any periodic payments received from (paid to) the counterparty, including at termination, under such contracts as realized gain (loss) on the Statement of Operations.
     Swap contract agreements are exposed to the market risk factor of the specific underlying reference asset. Swap contracts are typically more attractively priced compared to similar investments in related cash securities because they isolate the risk to one market risk factor and eliminate the other market risk factors. Investments in cash securities (for instance bonds) have exposure to multiple risk factors (credit and interest rate risk). Because swaps require little or no initial cash investment, they can expose the Fund to substantial risk in the isolated market risk factor.
Credit Default Swap Contracts. A credit default swap is a bilateral contract that enables an investor to buy or sell protection on a debt security against a defined-issuer credit event, such as the issuer’s failure to make timely payments of interest or principal on the debt security, bankruptcy or restructuring. The Fund may enter into credit default swaps either by buying or selling protection on a single security, sovereign debt, or a basket of securities (the “reference asset”).
     The buyer of protection pays a periodic fee to the seller of protection based on the notional amount of debt securities underlying the swap contract. The seller of protection agrees to compensate the buyer of protection for future potential losses as a result of a credit event on the reference asset. The contract effectively transfers the credit event risk of the reference asset from the buyer of protection to the seller of protection.
     The ongoing value of the contract will fluctuate throughout the term of the contract based primarily on the credit risk of the reference asset. If the credit quality of the reference asset improves relative to the credit quality at contract initiation, the buyer of protection may have an unrealized loss greater than the anticipated periodic fee owed. This unrealized loss would be the result of current credit protection being cheaper than the cost of credit protection at contract initiation. If the buyer elects to terminate the contract prior to its maturity, and there has been no credit event, this unrealized loss will become realized. If the contract is held to maturity, and there has been no credit event, the realized loss will be equal to the periodic fee paid over the life of the contract.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
     5. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments Continued
     If there is a credit event, the buyer of protection can exercise its rights under the contract and receive a payment from the seller of protection equal to the notional amount of the reference asset less the market value of the reference asset. Upon exercise of the contract the difference between the value of the underlying reference asset and the notional amount is recorded as realized gain (loss) and is included on the Statement of Operations.
     The Fund has sold credit protection through credit default swaps to increase exposure to the credit risk of individual securities and/or, indexes that are either unavailable or considered to be less attractive in the bond market.
     The Fund has purchased credit protection through credit default swaps to decrease exposure to the credit risk of individual securities and/or, indexes.
     For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had ending monthly average notional amounts of $66,180,714 and $53,008,571 on credit default swaps to buy protection and credit default swaps to sell protection, respectively.
     Additional associated risks to the Fund include counterparty credit risk and liquidity risk.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts. An interest rate swap is an agreement between counterparties to exchange periodic payments based on interest rates. One cash flow stream will typically be a floating rate payment based upon a specified interest rate while the other is typically a fixed interest rate.
     The Fund has entered into interest rate swaps in which it pays a floating interest rate and receives a fixed interest rate in order to increase exposure to interest rate risk. Typically, if relative interest rates rise, payments made by the Fund under a swap agreement will be greater than the payments received by the Fund.
     The Fund has entered into interest rate swaps in which it pays a fixed interest rate and receives a floating interest rate in order to decrease exposure to interest rate risk. Typically, if relative interest rates rise, payments received by the Fund under the swap agreement will be greater than the payments made by the Fund.
     For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund, had ending monthly average notional amounts of $61,784,228 and $206,392,739 on interest rate swaps which pay a fixed rate and interest rate swaps which receive a fixed rate, respectively.
     Additional associated risks to the Fund include counterparty credit risk and liquidity risk.
Total Return Swap Contracts. A total return swap is an agreement between counterparties to exchange periodic payments based on asset or non-asset references. One cash flow is typically based on a non-asset reference (such as an interest rate or index) and the other on the total return of a reference asset (such as a security or a basket of securities). The total return of the reference asset typically includes appreciation or depreciation on the reference asset, plus any interest or dividend payments.
     Total return swap contracts are exposed to the market risk factor of the specific underlying financial instrument or index. Total return swaps are less standard in structure than other types of swaps and can isolate and/or, include multiple types of market risk factors including equity risk, credit risk, and interest rate risk.
     The Fund has entered into total return swaps on various equity securities or indexes to increase exposure to equity risk. These equity risk related total return swaps require the Fund to pay a floating reference interest rate, or an amount equal to the negative price movement of securities or an index multiplied by the notional amount of the contract. The Fund will receive payments equal to the positive price movement of the same securities or index multiplied by the notional amount of the contract.

     For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had ending monthly average notional amounts of $62,365,490 and $24,079,558 on total return swaps which are long the reference asset and total return swaps which are short the reference asset, respectively.
     Additional associated risks to the Fund include counterparty credit risk and liquidity risk.
Currency Swaps. A currency swap is an agreement between counterparties to exchange different currencies equivalent to the notional value at contract inception and reverse the exchange of the same notional values of those currencies at contract termination. The contract may also include periodic exchanges of cash flows based on a specified index or interest rate.
     The Fund has entered into currency swap contracts with the obligation to pay an interest rate on the dollar notional amount and receive an interest rate on various foreign currency notional amounts in order to take a positive investment perspective on the related currencies for which the Fund receives a payment. These currency swap contracts seek to increase exposure to foreign exchange rate risk.

     For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had ending monthly average notional amounts of $8,078,792 on currency swaps.
     Additional associated risks to the Fund include counterparty credit risk and liquidity risk.
     As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had no such currency swap agreements outstanding.
Volatility Swap Contracts. A volatility swap is an agreement between counterparties to exchange periodic payments based on the measured volatility of a reference security, index, currency or other reference investment over a specified time frame. One cash flow is typically based on the volatility of the reference investment as measured by changes in its price or level while the other cash flow is based on an interest rate or the measured volatility of a different reference investment. The appreciation or depreciation on a volatility swap will typically depend on the magnitude of the reference investment’s volatility, or size of the movement, rather than general directional increases or decreases in its price.
     Volatility swaps are less standard in structure than other types of swaps and provide pure, or isolated, exposure to volatility risk of the specific underlying reference investment. Volatility swaps are typically used to speculate on future volatility levels, to trade the spread between realized and expected volatility, or to decrease the volatility exposure of investments held by the Fund.
     The Fund has entered into volatility swaps to increase exposure to the volatility risk of various reference investments. These types of volatility swaps require the fund to pay the measured volatility and receive a fixed interest payment over the period of the contract. If the measured volatility of the related reference investment increases over the period, the swaps will depreciate in value. Conversely, if the measured volatility of the related reference investment decreases over the period, the swaps will appreciate in value.

     For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund had ending monthly average notional amounts of $44,156 and $202,844 on volatility swaps which pay volatility and volatility swaps which receive volatility, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited / Continued
6. Restricted Securities
     As of June 30, 2011, investments in securities included issues that are restricted. A restricted security may have a contractual restriction on its resale and is valued under methods approved by the Board of Directors as reflecting fair value. Securities that are restricted are marked with an applicable footnote on the Statement of Investments. Restricted securities are reported on a schedule following the Statement of Investments.
7. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in
74 | OPPENHEIMER GLOBAL STRATEGIC INCOME FUND/VA

 


 

New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2011, the Fund’s Non-Service shares produced a return of 7.19%, outperforming the Russell 1000 Value Index (the “Index”), which returned 5.92% during the same period.
Economic and Market Overview
At the beginning of the reporting period, encouraging data from the U.S. labor market, including a declining unemployment rate, seemed to indicate that the long-awaited revival of consumer and business confidence was at hand. The global economy also appeared to provide reasons for an upbeat outlook. In Europe, policymakers continued to take measures to contain the sovereign debt problems of peripheral Europe and, in February, strong corporate earnings led to an upward revision of the European Central Bank’s 2011 growth forecast. Fears that had surfaced in 2010 over rising inflationary pressures in the fast-growing emerging markets lessened to a degree as the new year began.
     While the markets generally performed well in the first four months of 2011, a number of dramatic global events created increased market volatility. A wave of political unrest in North Africa and the Middle East sparked worries that disruptions in oil production might derail the global economic recovery. Although energy prices surged higher, investors retained their optimism and riskier assets, such as stocks and higher-yielding fixed-income securities, generally continued to rally. Investors encountered another unexpected shock on March 11, when a catastrophic natural disaster followed by a nuclear crisis hit Japan, one of the world’s largest economies and a key exporter of industrial components to many countries and industries, including U.S. automobile manufacturers. However, the disruptions to the global supply chain proved significantly less severe than originally anticipated and, after a brief pullback, the markets continued to climb higher.
     In April 2011, market concerns resurfaced when Greece again teetered on the brink of defaulting on its sovereign debt, rekindling worries from 2010 that fiscal instability might spread to other parts of Europe. At the same time, a debate regarding government spending and borrowing intensified in the United States, causing a renewed sense of uncertainty among businesses and consumers as the August 2 deadline to raise the U.S. Government’s debt ceiling loomed. Additionally, the Fed’s latest round of quantitative easing measures labeled “QE2” officially ended on June 30, further contributing to questions around what the Fed’s next move would be. As a result, by period end, job creation had slowed to a crawl, the unemployment rate moved higher and consumers reined in spending. Despite the volatility and dramatic headlines, overall the global markets finished the second half of the reporting period in positive territory, reflective of healthy balance sheets of many multinational corporations, continued growth in developing markets and the ongoing economic recoveries in the U.S., Canada and in much of Western Europe.
Fund Review
The Fund outperformed the Index primarily within the materials and information technology sectors, as a result of stronger relative stock selection. The Fund’s stock selection within the energy sector also benefited relative performance. The most significant detractors from relative performance were consumer discretionary, industrials and utilities, due to weaker relative stock selection.
     During the reporting period, information technology holding National Semiconductor Corp. was the top performing stock for the Fund. Shares of the stock rose substantially higher following an announcement that Texas Instruments planned to acquire the company for $25 per share in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $6.5 billion. Within the health care sector, managed health care firms Humana, Inc. and WellPoint, Inc. were among the top contributors to Fund performance, as fears over the new health care overhaul abated to a degree. Both firms raised their 2011 forecasts and reported earnings that beat Wall Street expectations. Within the energy sector, integrated oil and gas company Chevron Corp. and oil and gas equipment and service provider Halliburton Co. led in terms of positive contributors. Both companies benefited from rising oil prices and increased demand. Viacom, Inc. within consumer discretionary performed well for the Fund, as the stock climbed to new highs primarily due to the popularity of programming on its Nickelodeon and MTV stations. We exited our positions in Halliburton and National Semiconductor by period end.

FUND PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION
     On the negative side, investment banking and brokerage firm Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. was a significant detractor to Fund performance during the reporting period, as was diversified bank Wells Fargo & Co. The Fund’s holdings in these two firms underperformed amidst uncertainty over the future of the global economic recovery and disappointing earnings. Financials was the weakest performing sector of the Index. Within consumer discretionary, the weakening U.S. economy and a pessimistic American consumer adversely affected the stock performance of apparel retailer Talbots, Inc. and general merchandiser Target Corp. Consumers cut back on spending even at discount retailers, as unemployment remained elevated and commodity prices soared. The souring economy also negatively impacted the stock of Ford Motor Co. As the overall stock market slumped towards the end of the period against the backdrop of a renewed crisis in Greece and lower U.S. GDP numbers, Ford announced that its light-vehicle deliveries fell much more than was expected, sending the stock price substantially lower.
     At period end, relative to the Index, the Fund had significant overweight positions in the materials, health care, consumer discretionary and utilities sectors. The Fund had its largest relative underweight in financials and was underweight to a lesser degree in telecommunication services, information technology, industrials, energy and consumer staples when compared to the Index.
Outlook
While an uncertain economic environment may continue to create volatile short-term returns in the market, we continue to utilize in-depth fundamental research to uncover companies that are undervalued relative to their long-term earnings power. In our opinion, the long-term perspective and focus on company fundamentals helps find value opportunities in all market conditions.
Investors should consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. The Fund’s prospectus and, if available, the Fund’s summary prospectus contain this and other information about the Fund, and may be obtained by asking your financial advisor or calling us at 1.800.988.8287. Read the prospectus and, if available, the summary prospectus, carefully before investing.
Total returns include changes in share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a hypothetical investment for the periods shown. Cumulative total returns are not annualized.

FUND EXPENSES
Fund Expenses. As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000.00 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire 6-month period ended June 30, 2011.
Actual Expenses. The first section of the table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section for the class of shares you hold, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expense that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600.00 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.60), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second section of the table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio for each class of shares, and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year for each class before expenses, which is not the actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example for the class of shares you hold with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any charges associated with the separate accounts that offer this Fund. Therefore, the “hypothetical” lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these separate account charges were included your costs would have been higher.

The “Financial Highlights” tables in the Fund’s financial statements, included in this report, also show the gross expense ratios, without such waivers or reimbursements and reduction to custodian expenses, if applicable.

Valuation Inputs
Various data inputs are used in determining the value of each of the Fund’s investments as of the reporting period end. These data inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:
  1)   Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (including securities actively traded on a securities exchange)
 
  2)   Level 2—inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and market corroborated inputs such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)
 
  3)   Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Manager’s own judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability).
The table below categorizes amounts that are included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2011 based on valuation input level:
                                 
                    Level 3—

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unaudited
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Value FUND/VA (the “Fund”) is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds, an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in common stocks with low price earnings ratios and better-than-anticipated earnings. Realization of current income is a secondary consideration. The Fund’s investment adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the “Manager”).
     The Fund offers two classes of shares. Both classes are sold at their offering price, which is the net asset value per share, to separate investment accounts of participating insurance companies as an underlying investment for variable life insurance policies, variable annuity contracts or other investment products. The class of shares designated as Service shares is subject to a distribution and service plan. Both classes of shares have identical rights and voting privileges with respect to the Fund in general and exclusive voting rights on matters that affect that class alone. Earnings, net assets and net asset value per share may differ due to each class having its own expenses, such as transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and shareholder communications, directly attributable to that class.
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
Securities Valuation. The Fund calculates the net asset value of its shares as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”), normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern time, on each day the Exchange is open for trading.
     Each investment asset or liability of the Fund is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” observable market inputs other than unadjusted quoted prices are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Manager’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability, are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Fund’s investments under these levels of classification is included following the Statement of Investments.
     Securities are valued using unadjusted quoted market prices, when available, as supplied primarily by portfolio pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees or dealers.
     Securities traded on a registered U.S. securities exchange are valued based on the last sale price of the security reported on the principal exchange on which it is traded, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. Securities whose principal exchange is NASDAQ® are valued based on the official closing prices reported by NASDAQ prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the last sale price on the prior trading day, if it is within the spread of the current day’s closing “bid” and “asked” prices, and if not, at the current day’s closing bid price. A foreign security traded on a foreign exchange is valued based on the last sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded, as identified by the portfolio pricing service used by the Manager, prior to the time when the Fund’s assets are valued. In the absence of a sale, the security is valued at the most recent official closing price on the principal exchange on which it is traded.
     Shares of a registered investment company that are not traded on an exchange are valued at that investment company’s net asset value per share.
     U.S. domestic and international debt instruments (including corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and “money market-type” debt instruments with a remaining maturity in excess of sixty days are valued at the mean between the “bid” and “asked” prices utilizing price quotations obtained from independent pricing services or broker-dealers. Such prices are typically determined based upon information obtained from market participants including reported trade data, broker-dealer price quotations and inputs such as benchmark yields and issuer spreads from identical or similar securities.
     “Money market-type” debt instruments with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at cost adjusted by the amortization of discount or premium to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value.
     In the absence of a current price quotation obtained from an independent pricing service or broker-dealer, including for securities whose values have been materially affected by what the Manager identifies as a significant event occurring

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
before the Fund’s assets are valued but after the close of the securities’ respective exchanges, the Manager, acting through its internal valuation committee, in good faith determines the fair valuation of that asset using consistently applied procedures under the supervision of the Board of Trustees (which reviews those fair valuations by the Manager). Those procedures include certain standardized methodologies to fair value securities. Such methodologies include, but are not limited to, pricing securities initially at cost and subsequently adjusting the value based on: changes in company specific fundamentals, changes in an appropriate securities index, or changes in the value of similar securities which may be adjusted for any discounts related to resale restrictions. When possible, such methodologies use observable market inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices of similar securities, observable interest rates, currency rates and yield curves. The methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
     There have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies of the Fund during the period.
Investment in Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund. The Fund is permitted to invest daily available cash balances in an affiliated money market fund. The Fund may invest the available cash in Class E shares of Oppenheimer Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”) to seek current income while preserving liquidity. IMMF is a registered open-end management investment company, regulated as a money market fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Manager is also the investment adviser of IMMF. When applicable, the Fund’s investment in IMMF is included in the Statement of Investments. Shares of IMMF are valued at their net asset value per share. As a shareholder, the Fund is subject to its proportional share of IMMF’s Class E expenses, including its management fee. The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF.
Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated on a daily basis to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its investment company taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by capital loss carryforwards, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. The Fund files income tax returns in U.S. federal and applicable state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations on the Fund’s tax return filings generally remain open for the three preceding fiscal reporting period ends.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Fund utilized $446,612 of capital loss carryforward to offset capital gains realized in that fiscal year. As of December 31, 2010, the Fund had available unused capital loss carryforwards as follows:
         
Expiring        
 
2016
  $ 856,985  
2017
    999,882  
 
     
Total
  $ 1,856,867  
 
     
As of June 30, 2011, the Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an estimated capital loss carryforward of $1,058,504 expiring by 2017. This estimated capital loss carryforward represents carryforward as of the end of the last fiscal year, increased for losses deferred under tax accounting rules to the current fiscal year and is increased or decreased by capital losses or gains realized in the first six months of the current fiscal year. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, it is estimated that the Fund will utilize $798,363 of capital loss carryforward to offset realized capital gains.
     Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes. The character of dividends and distributions made during the fiscal year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividends
16 | OPPENHEIMER VALUE FUND/VA

 


 

and distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or net realized gain was recorded by the Fund.
The aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments for federal income tax purposes as of June 30, 2011 are noted in the following table. The primary difference between book and tax appreciation or depreciation of securities and other investments, if applicable, is attributable to the tax deferral of losses or tax realization of financial statement unrealized gain or loss.
         
Federal tax cost of securities
  $ 7,256,359  
 
     
 
Gross unrealized appreciation
  $ 966,793  
Gross unrealized depreciation
    (175,164 )
 
     
Net unrealized appreciation
  $ 791,629  
 
     
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to a number of tax rules impacting the Fund. Although the Act provides a number of benefits, including the unlimited carryover of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of a fund’s prior year capital loss carryovers will expire unused. In general, the provisions of the Act will be effective for the Fund’s fiscal year ending 2012. Specific information regarding the impact of the Act on the Fund will be contained within the “Federal Taxes” section of the financial statement notes for the fiscal year ending 2012.
Trustees’ Compensation. The Board of Trustees has adopted a compensation deferral plan for independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the Trustee under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of the Fund or in other Oppenheimer funds selected by the Trustee. The Fund purchases shares of the funds selected for deferral by the Trustee in amounts equal to his or her deemed investment, resulting in a Fund asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other” within the asset section of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the plan will not affect the net assets of the Fund, and will not materially affect the Fund’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the compensation deferral plan.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually or at other times as deemed necessary by the Manager. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund’s fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund’s distributions made to shareholders prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may ultimately be categorized as a tax return of capital.
Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or upon ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign dividends where the ex-dividend date may have passed. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Discount and premium, which are included in interest income on the Statement of Operations, are amortized or accreted daily.
Custodian Fees. “Custodian fees and expenses” in the Statement of Operations may include interest expense incurred by the Fund on any cash overdrafts of its custodian account during the period. Such cash overdrafts may result from the effects of failed trades in portfolio securities and from cash outflows resulting from unanticipated shareholder redemption activity. The Fund pays interest to its custodian on such cash overdrafts, to the extent they are not offset by positive cash balances maintained by the Fund, at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%. The “Reduction to custodian expenses” line item, if applicable, represents earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund during the period. Such interest expense and other custodian fees may be paid with these earnings.

1. Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Security Transactions. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
Indemnifications. The Fund’s organizational documents provide current and former trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Other. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest of
each class. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

3. Purchases and Sales of Securities
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other than short-term obligations and investments in IMMF, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, were as follows:
                 
    Purchases     Sales  
 
Investment securities
  $ 4,034,764     $ 3,962,340  
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Fee Schedule        
 
Up to $200 million
    0.75 %
Next $200 million

Next $200 million
    0.66  
Over $800 million

18 | OPPENHEIMER VALUE FUND/VA

 


 

Administration Service Fees. The Fund pays the Manager a fee of $1,500 per year for preparing and filing the Fund’s tax returns.
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (“OFS”), a division of the Manager, acts as the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The Fund pays OFS fees at an annual rate of 0.10% of the daily net assets of each class of shares. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Fund paid $3,930 to OFS for services to the Fund.
Distribution and Service Plan for Service Shares. The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Service Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for Service shares to pay OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”), for distribution related services, personal service and account maintenance for the Fund’s Service shares. Under the Plan, payments are made periodically at an annual rate of 0.25% of the daily net assets of Service shares of the Fund. The Distributor currently uses all of those fees to compensate sponsors of the insurance product that offers Fund shares, for providing personal service and maintenance of accounts of their variable contract owners that hold Service shares. These fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets on an on-going basis and increase operating expenses of the Service shares, which results in lower performance compared to the Fund’s shares that are not subject to a service fee. Fees incurred by the Fund under the Plan are detailed in the Statement of Operations.
Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Manager has voluntarily agreed to limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses so that those expenses, as percentages of daily net assets, will not exceed the annual rate of 0.80% for Non-Service shares and 1.05% for Service shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $459 and $29,787 for Non-Service and Service shares, respectively.
     The Manager will waive fees and/or reimburse Fund expenses in an amount equal to the indirect management fees incurred through the Fund’s investment in IMMF. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Manager waived fees and/or reimbursed the Fund $175 for IMMF management fees.
     Some of these undertakings may be modified or terminated at any time, as indicated in the Fund’s prospectus.
5. Pending Litigation
Since 2009, a number of lawsuits have been filed in federal and state courts against the Manager, the Distributor and certain Oppenheimer mutual funds (but not including the Fund) advised by the Manager and distributed by the Distributor (the “Defendant Funds”). Several of these lawsuits also name as defendants certain officers and current and former trustees of the respective Defendant Funds. The lawsuits raise claims under federal and state securities laws and state common law and allege, among other things, that the disclosure documents of the respective Defendant Fund contained misrepresentations and omissions and that the respective Defendant Fund’s investment policies were not followed. The plaintiffs in these actions seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. On June 1, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado gave preliminary approval to stipulations and agreements of settlement in certain purported class action lawsuits involving two Defendant Funds, Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund and Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund. Those settlements are subject to the final approval of the court. Final approval of the settlements also requires that a sufficient number of class members approve the settlement to induce the settling defendants to proceed with it. These settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund, Oppenheimer Core Bond Fund or other Defendant Funds.
     In 2009, what are claimed to be derivative lawsuits were filed in New Mexico state court against the Manager and a subsidiary (but not against the Fund) on behalf of the New Mexico Education Plan Trust. These lawsuits allege breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and violation of state securities laws, and seek compensatory damages, equitable relief and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
     Other lawsuits have been filed since 2008 in various state and federal courts against the Manager and certain of its affiliates by investors seeking to recover investments they allegedly lost as a result of the “Ponzi” scheme run by Bernard L. Madoff and his firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, LLC (“BLMIS”). Plaintiffs in these suits allege that they suffered losses as a result of their investments in several funds managed by an affiliate of the Manager and

5. Pending Litigation Continued
assert a variety of claims, including breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, and violation of federal and state securities laws and regulations, among others. They seek unspecified damages, equitable relief and awards of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. None of the suits have named the Distributor, any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds or any of their independent Trustees or Directors as defendants. None of the Oppenheimer mutual funds invested in any funds or accounts managed by Mr. Madoff or BLMIS. On February 28, 2011, a stipulation of partial settlement of certain purported class action lawsuits relating to these matters was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On August 8, 2011, the court issued a ruling approving the settlement as fair, reasonable and adequate. The court’s approval of the settlement is subject to potential appeal by claimants. On July 29, 2011, a stipulation of settlement between certain affiliates of the Manager and the Trustee appointed under the Securities Investor Protection Act to liquidate BLMIS was filed in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York to resolve purported preference and fraudulent transfer claims by the Trustee. This settlement is subject to the final approval of the court. The aforementioned settlements do not resolve any of the other outstanding lawsuits relating to these matters.
     On April 16, 2010, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark IV Funding Limited (“AAArdvark IV”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark IV. Plaintiffs allege breach of contract against the defendants and seek compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees. On July 15, 2011, a lawsuit was filed in New York state court against the Manager, an affiliate of the Manager and AAArdvark I Funding Limited (“AAArdvark I”), an entity advised by the Manager’s affiliate, in connection with investments made by the plaintiffs in AAArdvark I. The complaint alleges breach of contract against the defendants and seeks compensatory damages, costs and disbursements, including attorney fees.
     The Manager believes the lawsuits described above are without legal merit and, with the exception of actions it has agreed to settle, is defending against them vigorously. The Defendant Funds’ Boards of Trustees have also engaged counsel to represent the Funds and the present and former Independent Trustees named in those suits. While it is premature to render any opinion as to the outcome in these lawsuits, or whether any costs that the Defendant Funds may bear in defending the suits might not be reimbursed by insurance, the Manager believes that these suits should not impair the ability of the Manager or the Distributor to perform their respective duties to the Fund, and that the outcome of all of the suits together should not have any material effect on the operations of any of the Oppenheimer mutual funds.

The Fund’s Governance Committee Provisions with Respect to Nominations of Directors/Trustees to the Respective Boards

 


 

1.   The Fund’s Governance Committee (the “Committee”) will evaluate potential Board candidates to assess their qualifications. The Committee shall have the authority, upon approval of the Board, to retain an executive search firm to assist in this effort. The Committee may consider recommendations by business and personal contacts of current Board members and by executive search firms which the Committee may engage from time to time and may also consider shareholder recommendations. The Committee may consider the advice and recommendation of the Funds’ investment manager and its affiliates in making the selection.
2.   The Committee shall screen candidates for Board membership. The Committee has not established specific qualifications that it believes must be met by a trustee nominee. In evaluating trustee nominees, the Committee considers, among other things, an individual’s background, skills, and experience; whether the individual is an “interested person” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940; and whether the individual would be deemed an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of applicable SEC rules. The Committee also considers whether the individual’s background, skills, and experience will complement the background, skills, and experience of other nominees and will contribute to the Board. There are no differences in the manner in which the Committee evaluates nominees for trustees based on whether the nominee is recommended by a shareholder.
3.   The Committee may consider nominations from shareholders for the Board at such times as the Committee meets to consider new nominees for the Board. The Committee shall have the sole discretion to determine the candidates to present to the Board and, in such cases where required, to shareholders. Recommendations for trustee nominees should, at a minimum, be accompanied by the following:
    the name, address, and business, educational, and/or other pertinent background of the person being recommended;
 
    a statement concerning whether the person is an “interested person” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940;
 
    any other information that the Funds would be required to include in a proxy statement concerning the person if he or she was nominated; and
 
    the name and address of the person submitting the recommendation and, if that person is a shareholder, the period for which that person held Fund shares.
    The recommendation also can include any additional information which the person submitting it believes would assist the Committee in evaluating the recommendation.
 
4.   Shareholders should note that a person who owns securities issued by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (the parent company of the Funds’ investment adviser) would be deemed an “interested person” under the Investment Company Act of 1940. In addition, certain other relationships with Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company or its

 


 

    subsidiaries, with registered broker-dealers, or with the Funds’ outside legal counsel may cause a person to be deemed an “interested person.”
 
5.   Before the Committee decides to nominate an individual as a trustee, Committee members and other directors customarily interview the individual in person. In addition, the individual customarily is asked to complete a detailed questionnaire which is designed to elicit information which must be disclosed under SEC and stock exchange rules and to determine whether the individual is subject to any statutory disqualification from serving as a trustee of a registered investment company.
Item 11. Controls and Procedures.
Based on their evaluation of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rule 30a-3(c) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (17 CFR 270.30a-3(c)) as of 06/30/2011, the registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer found the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in the reports that it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (a) is accumulated and communicated to registrant’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (b) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
There have been no changes in the registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s second fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
Item 12. Exhibits.
(a)   (1) Not applicable to semiannual reports.
  (2)   Exhibits attached hereto.
 
  (3)   Not applicable.
(b)   Exhibit attached hereto.
