Secondarily, the Fund seeks capital growth when this is consistent with its primary objective. The Fund may invest in securities in the lower rating categories, commonly known as "junk bonds," which are subject to a greater risk of default. ================================================================================ Narrative by David Negri and John Kowalik, Co-Portfolio Managers Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA provided a cumulative total return of -1.69% for the six-month period that ended June 30, 1999.(1) The year began with the U.S. economy growing at a surprisingly robust rate, fueled by high levels of consumer confidence and consumer spending. Most bond sectors reacted negatively to the economy's unexpectedly high rate of growth and the resulting increased potential for inflation, since inflation undermines the value of a bond's yield. However, high-yield instruments remained relatively strong as investors shifted their focus from fixed-income sectors offering higher levels of safety, such as Treasuries, to sectors offering greater yields, such as high-yield corporate bonds and collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs).(2) In early April, reassured by evidence that the U.S. economy was continuing to grow and that global economies were stabilizing, investors began looking for undervalued opportunities among companies in basic industries that stood to benefit from a global recovery. This abrupt shift in market sentiment affected bonds and equities alike, undermining the market performance of high-growth sectors while driving prices higher among these basic industrial sectors. We positioned the Fund to take advantage of these conditions by redeploying some of our U.S. Treasury holdings in corporate bonds and CMOs, both of which benefited from the increased demand for higher yielding bonds. As a result, the Fund enjoyed relatively strong performance during the high-yield rally that occurred during the first quarter of 1999. From January through March, we achieved our best results from new issues and from investments in the telecommunications sector, many of which we sold when we believed they no longer offered further potential for price appreciation. At the same time, we maintained our emphasis on the higher-grade segment of the corporate bond market, maintaining an average credit rating of "A" to reduce the Fund's investment risk.(3) Our diversified investment approach helped cushion the Fund from market volatility in April 1999, when investors began showing renewed interest in basic industries that stood to benefit from a global recovery. Although many of our holdings were in high-growth sectors that had performed well until that time, many others were in energy and other basic industrial sectors favored during the shift in market sentiment. Of course, not all our strategies proved equally effective throughout the period. We had less success in slightly increasing the Fund's average duration. Duration is a measure of the length of time before a bond matures. We shifted the Fund into longer duration instruments to capture the higher yields generally offered by longer bonds. However, duration is also a measure of a bond's sensitivity to changes in interest rates, since rising interest rates diminish the advantage of the long bond's higher yield. With the U.S. economy growing at a faster-than-expected pace, concern grew that the Federal Reserve Board might be forced to raise interest rates to restrain inflation. As a result, short duration instruments generally outperformed long duration instruments, thereby detracting from the Fund's performance. The Fund's performance may from time to time be subject to substantial short-term changes, particularly during periods of market or interest rate volatility. For updates on the Fund's performance, please contact your financial advisor, call us at 1-800-525-7048 or visit our website, www.oppenheimerfunds.com. 1. Includes changes in net asset value per share and does not include the charges associated with the separate account products, which offer this Fund. Such performance is not annualized and would have been lower if such charges were taken into account. 2. Investing in lower rated high-yield domestic corporate bonds (commonly known as "junk bonds") carries a greater risk of default, while investing in CMOs carries a greater risk of interest rate sensitivity. 3. The Fund's portfolio is subject to change. 2 Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds--Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ Looking ahead, we believe that the U.S. economy will moderate during the remainder of 1999, providing a more hospitable environment for bonds in general, and more favorable conditions for our duration position. We also believe that, despite recent declines, Treasury bond prices still remain somewhat elevated by historical standards when compared to the prices of higher yielding fixed-income instruments. Therefore, we expect that Treasury prices will continue to fall relative to other bonds. Accordingly, we intend to maintain our emphasis on corporate bonds while closely monitoring developments in the Treasury sector to determine how long this trend is likely to continue. We also remain watchful for Y2K-related business disruptions that might affect corporate performance, thereby negatively affecting corporate debt obligations. Whatever changes occur in the market and the economy, we believe our flexibility to allocate assets among many different fixed income segments is a key reason why Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA remains part of The Right Way to Invest.

1. Principal amount is reported in U.S. Dollars, except for those denoted in the following currencies: CAD--Canadian Dollar IDR --Indonesian Rupiah 2. 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. 3. 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. 4. Represents the current interest rate for a variable rate security. 5. Identifies issues considered to be illiquid or restricted--See Note 8 of Notes to Financial Statements. 6. 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 $94,512,612 or 14.95% of the Fund's net assets as of June 30, 1999. 7. For zero coupon bonds, the interest rate shown is the effective yield on the date of purchase. 8. Non-income producing--issuer is in default. 9. A sufficient amount of securities has been designated to cover outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts. See Note 5 of Notes to Financial Statements. 10. When-issued security to be delivered and settled after June 30, 1999. 11. Securities with an aggregate market value of $2,076,398 are held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures sales contracts. See Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements. 12. Denotes a step bond: a zero coupon bond that converts to a fixed or variable interest rate at a designated future date. 13. Non-income producing security. 14. Denotes an inflation-indexed security: coupon and principal are indexed to the consumer price index. See accompanying Notes to Financial Statements.

See accompanying Notes to Financial Statements. Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA 17 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ 1. Significant Accounting Policies. Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA (the Fund) is a separate series of Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds (the Trust), a diversified, 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. The Fund operated under the name Oppenheimer Bond Fund through April 30, 1999. The Trust's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Securities Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued at the close of the New York Stock Exchange on each trading day. Listed and unlisted securities for which such information is regularly reported are valued at the last sale price of the day or, in the absence of sales, at values based on the closing bid or the last sale price on the prior trading day. Long-term and short-term "non-money market" debt securities are valued by a portfolio pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees. Such securities which cannot be valued by an approved portfolio pricing service are valued using dealer-supplied valuations provided the Manager is satisfied that the firm rendering the quotes is reliable and that the quotes reflect current market value, or are valued under consistently applied procedures established by the Board of Trustees to determine fair value in good faith. Short-term "money market type" debt securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at cost (or last determined market value) adjusted for amortization to maturity of any premium or discount. Foreign currency exchange contracts are valued based on the closing prices of the foreign currency contract rates in the London foreign exchange markets on a daily basis as provided by a reliable bank or dealer. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Securities Purchased on a When-Issued Basis. Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by the Fund on a forward commitment or when-issued basis can take place a month or more after the transaction date. Normally the settlement date occurs within six months after the transaction date; however, the Fund may, from time to time, purchase securities whose settlement date extends beyond six months and possibly as long as two years or more beyond 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 Fund maintains segregated assets with a market value equal to or greater than the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis may increase the volatility of the Fund's net asset value to the extent the Fund makes such purchases while remaining substantially fully invested. As of June 30, 1999, the Fund had entered into outstanding when-issued or forward commitments of $5,196,204. In connection with its ability to purchase securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis, the Fund may enter into mortgage dollar-rolls in which the Fund sells securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future date. The Fund records each dollar-roll as a sale and a new purchase transaction. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Security Credit Risk. The Fund invests in high yield securities, which may be subject to a greater degree of credit risk, greater market fluctuations and risk of loss of income and principal, and may be more sensitive to economic conditions than lower yielding, higher rated fixed income securities. The Fund may acquire securities in default, and is not obligated to dispose of securities whose issues subsequently default. As of June 30, 1999, securities with an aggregate market value of $39,943, representing 0.01% of the Fund's net assets, were in default. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Foreign Currency Translation. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange. Amounts related to the purchase and sale of foreign securities and investment income are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. 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. 18 Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ Repurchase Agreements. The Fund requires the custodian to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System or to have segregated within the custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for repurchase agreements. The market value of the underlying securities is required to be at least 102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. If the seller of the agreement defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if the seller enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the value of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Classification of Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes primarily because of paydown gains and losses and the recognition of certain foreign currency gains (losses) as ordinary income (loss) for tax purposes. The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the fiscal year in which the income or realized gain was recorded by the Fund. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Expense Offset Arrangements. Expenses paid indirectly represent a reduction of custodian fees for earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other. Investment transactions are accounted for as of trade date and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Discount on securities purchased is amortized over the life of the respective securities, in accordance with federal income tax requirements. Realized gains and losses on investments and options written and unrealized appreciation and depreciation are determined on an identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Dividends-in-kind are recognized as income on the ex-dividend date, at the current market value of the underlying security. Interest on payment-in-kind debt instruments is accrued as income at the coupon rate and a market adjustment is made periodically. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. ================================================================================ 2. Shares of Beneficial Interest. The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of no par value shares of beneficial interest. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:
Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 Year Ended December 31, 1998 -------------------------------- -------------------------------- Shares Amount Shares Amount - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sold 5,757,087 $ 68,988,645 24,245,723 $ 293,126,941 Dividends and distributions reinvested 2,820,394 32,970,408 1,463,254 17,163,972 Redeemed (6,793,511) (81,181,213) (16,150,244) (195,000,147) ---------- ------------ ----------- ------------- Net increase 1,783,970 $ 20,777,840 9,558,733 $ 115,290,766 ========== ============ =========== =============
================================================================================ 3. Unrealized Gains and Losses on Securities. As of June 30, 1999, net unrealized depreciation on investments of $24,214,563 was composed of gross appreciation of $2,936,987, and gross depreciation of $27,151,550. Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA 19 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ 4. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the investment advisory agreement with the Fund which provides for a fee of 0.75% of the first $200 million of average annual net assets, 0.72% of the next $200 million, 0.69% of the next $200 million, 0.66% of the next $200 million, 0.60% of the next $200 million and 0.50% of average annual net assets over $1 billion. The Fund's management fee for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was 0.72% of average annual net assets. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager, is the transfer agent for the Fund and is responsible for maintaining the shareholder registry and shareholder accounting records for the Fund. OFS provides these services at cost. ================================================================================ 5. Foreign Currency Contracts A foreign currency exchange contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate. The Fund may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts for operational purposes and to seek to protect against adverse exchange rate fluctuations. Risks to the Fund include the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by the Fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation are determined using foreign currency exchange rates as provided by a reliable bank, dealer or pricing service. Unrealized appreciation and depreciation on foreign currency contracts are reported in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund may realize a gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of the foreign currency transactions. Realized gains and losses are reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Statement of Operations. Securities denominated in foreign currency to cover net exposure on outstanding foreign currency contracts are noted in the Statement of Investments where applicable. As of June 30, 1999, the Fund had outstanding foreign currency contracts as follows:
Expiration Contract Valuation as of Unrealized Contract Description Date Amounts (000s) June 30, 1999 Depreciation - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contracts to Sell - ----------------- Canadian Dollar (CAD) 7/15/99 3,000 CAD $2,027,400 $56,762 =======
================================================================================ 6. Futures Contracts The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to or to seek to protect against changes in interest rates. The Fund may also buy or write put or call options on these futures contracts. The Fund generally sells futures contracts to hedge against increases in interest rates and the resulting negative effect on the value of fixed rate portfolio securities. The Fund may also purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to changes in interest rates as it may be more efficient or cost effective than actually buying fixed income securities. 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. The Fund may recognize a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable and/or payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin. Risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. 20 Oppenheimer Bond Fund/VA - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ================================================================================ As of June 30, 1999, outstanding futures contracts were as follows:

================================================================================ 7. Option Activity The Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write put and covered call options on portfolio securities in order to produce incremental earnings or protect against changes in the value of portfolio securities. The Fund generally purchases put options or writes covered call options to hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings. 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 and unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded. The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Securities designated to cover outstanding call options are noted in the Statement of Investments where applicable. Options written are reported as a liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Gains and losses are reported in the Statement of Operations. 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 of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist. Written option activity for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was as follows:
Put Options ----------------------- Number of Amount of Options Premiums - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Options outstanding as of December 31, 1998 -- $ -- Options written 130 33,748 Options closed or expired (130) (33,748) ---- -------- Options outstanding as of June 30, 1999 -- $ -- ==== ========
================================================================================ 8. Illiquid or Restricted Securities As of June 30, 1999, investments in securities included issues that are illiquid or restricted. Restricted securities are often purchased in private placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may have contractual restrictions on resale, and are valued under methods approved by the Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value. A security may also be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. The Fund intends to invest no more than 15% of its net assets (determined at the time of purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid or restricted securities. Certain restricted securities, eligible for resale to qualified institutional investors, are not subject to that limitation. The aggregate value of illiquid or restricted securities subject to this limitation as of June 30, 1999, was $60,660,648, which represents 9.59% of the Fund's net assets.
