(1) Net investment income and operating expenses are after reimbursement of
    certain fees and expenses by PB Investment Advisors, Inc. (See Note 3 to the
    financial statements). Had PB Investment Advisors, Inc. not undertaken to
    reimburse expenses related to the Portfolios and Funds, the ratios of net
    investment income and operating expenses to average net assets would have
    been as noted above.
 
(2) Total return figures are not annualized. Total returns do not reflect
    expenses that apply to the separate account or related variable insurance
    contracts and inclusion of these charges would result in reducing the total
    return figures for the periods shown.
 
(3) Annualized for periods less than one year.
 
(4) Portfolio turnover rates are not annualized.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                           JUNE 30, 1998 (UNAUDITED)
 
NOTE 1 -- ORGANIZATION
 
PB Series Trust (the "Trust"), formerly Providian Series Trust, was organized as
a Massachusetts business trust on October 22, 1996 and is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Securities Act of 1933 as a diversified,
no-load, open-end management investment company. The Trust is a "series type" of
mutual fund which issues separate classes (or series) of stock, each of which
represents a separate diversified portfolio of investments. The Trust is
currently composed of nine series which consist of five investment portfolios
(Capital Preservation Portfolio, Income Oriented Portfolio, Growth and Income
Portfolio, Capital Growth Portfolio, and Maximum Appreciation
Portfolio-collectively, the "Portfolios") and four underlying funds (High
Quality Stock Fund, Fixed Income Fund, International Active Fund, and Money
Market Fund-collectively the "Funds").
 
The Portfolios seek to achieve their investment objectives by investing within
specific ranges among the Funds. Each Fund has differing investment objectives
and policies. Shares of the Portfolios are offered to separate accounts of
insurance companies to fund variable annuity contracts. The shares of the Funds
are purchased by the Portfolios. The Portfolios are offered to qualified plans
and separate accounts of insurance companies to fund variable annuity contracts.
 
On February 3, 1997, Providian Life and Health Separate Account V (the "Separate
Account") made an initial purchase of shares of beneficial interest in the
amount of 5,000 shares of the Money Market Fund. On May 9, 1997, the Separate
Account purchased an additional 1,995,000 shares of the Money Market Fund, and
purchased 1,000,000 shares of the High Quality Stock Fund and International
Active Fund, and 500,000 shares of the Fixed Income Fund. The Separate Account
is a separate account of Providian Life and Health Insurance Company, an
indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Providian Corporation which, on June 10,
1997, became a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of AEGON International N.V., a
direct, wholly owned subsidiary of AEGON N.V., an international insurance
organization headquartered in The Hague, The Netherlands. Effective October 15,
1997, Providian Corporation's name was changed to Commonwealth General
Corporation ("CGC"). Effective December 31, 1997, ownership of CGC was
transferred to AEGON USA, Inc., an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of AEGON
N.V.
 
NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Trust in the preparation of its financial statements.
 
VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS -- Securities held by the Funds (other than the Money
Market Fund) that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued on the
basis of the last sale price as of the close of business on the day the
securities are being valued, or lacking any sales, at the last quoted bid price.
Bonds and other fixed income securities with maturities greater than 60 days at
the time of purchase are valued by a pricing service. Securities and assets for
which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Trustees of
the Trust. Short-term securities and debt securities with a remaining maturity
of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
The Money Market Fund by the approval of the Board of Trustees utilizes the
amortized cost method for valuing securities, whereby all investments are valued
by reference to their acquisition cost as adjusted for amortization of premium
or accretion of discount.
 
FOREIGN SECURITIES -- Foreign securities traded on a recognized securities
exchange are valued at the last sale price in the principal market where they
are traded, or if closing prices are unavailable, at the last bid price
available prior to the time a Fund's net asset value is determined. Foreign
prices are furnished by quotation services expressed in the local currency's
value and translated into U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange.
 
                                       25
<PAGE>
NOTE 2 (CONTINUED)
 
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- The Trust may enter into repurchase agreements with
institutions that the Trust's investment advisor, PB Investment Advisors, Inc.,
(formerly Providian Investment Advisors, Inc.,) has determined are creditworthy
pursuant to criteria adopted by the Board of Trustees. In connection with
transactions in repurchase agreements, the Trust's custodian takes possession of
the underlying collateral securities, the value of which is at least equal to
102 percent of the principal amount, including interest, of the repurchase
agreement. The value of the collateral is marked-to-market on a daily basis to
ensure the adequacy of the collateral. In the event of default of the obligation
to repurchase, the Trust has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the
proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the
event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization
and or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal
proceedings.
 
The Trust may enter into a Joint Repurchase Agreement whereby its uninvested
cash balance is deposited into a joint cash account to be used to invest in one
or more repurchase agreements with government securities dealers recognized by
the Federal Reserve Board and/or member banks of the Federal Reserve System. The
value and face amount of the Joint Repurchase Agreement are allocated to the
Funds based on their pro-rata interest.
 
INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS -- Investment security transactions are accounted for on
the date the securities are purchased or sold. Realized gains and losses from
security transactions are determined on an identified cost basis, which is also
used for tax purposes.
 
INVESTMENT INCOME -- Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except
that certain dividends from foreign securities are recorded as soon as the Fund
is informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned.
Premiums and discounts (including original issue discounts) on debt securities
are amortized. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld if
recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- The accounting records of the Trust are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars
based on current exchange rates supplied by a quotation service. The effects of
changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are
included in net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments in the
statement of operations.
 
Reported net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions
represent net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward currency
contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses realized
between the trade and settlement dates on security transactions, and the
difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and the U.S.
dollar amount actually received. Net unrealized foreign currency exchange gains
and losses arise from changes in the value of receivables and payables due to
changes in exchange rates.
 
FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- A forward foreign currency contract ("Forward") is
an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a
future date. The market value of the Forward fluctuates with changes in currency
exchange rates. The Forward is marked-to-market daily and the change in the
market value is recorded by a Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. Realized gains
and losses are recognized when contracts are settled and are reflected in the
statement of operations. The Fund could be exposed to risk if a counter-party is
unable to meet the terms of the contract (such risk is limited to the unrealized
gain, if any) or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably. The
International Active Fund may enter into these contracts for the purpose of
hedging against foreign exchange risk arising from the Fund's investment or
anticipated investment in securities denominated in foreign currencies. The Fund
also may enter into these contracts for the purpose of increasing exposure to a
foreign currency to hedge against adverse changes in the value of another
currency when exchange rates between the two currencies are positively
correlated.
 
EXPENSES -- Expenses directly attributable to a Portfolio or Fund are charged to
that Portfolio or Fund. Expenses not directly attributable to a Portfolio or
Fund are allocated among the affected Portfolios and Funds based on relative net
assets of each Portfolio and Fund. Costs related to the organization and
registration of the
 
                                       26
<PAGE>
NOTE 2 (CONTINUED)
 
Trust have been funded by CGC and its subsidiaries. The Trust will not reimburse
CGC for these organizational costs.
 
ESTIMATES -- The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of these 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.
 
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Each of the Portfolios and Funds (except the
Money Market Fund) declares and distributes dividends from net investment income
and distributes its net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. The
Money Market Fund declares dividends daily and distributes monthly. All
distributions are reinvested in the shares of the relevant Portfolio/Fund at net
asset value. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
market discount, foreign currency transactions, losses deferred due to wash
sales and "post October 31 losses." Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
 
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- Each Portfolio and Fund is treated as a separate entity
for federal tax purposes. Each Portfolio and Fund intends to qualify each year
as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986. By so qualifying, each Portfolio and Fund will not be subject to
federal income taxes to the extent that they distribute all of their taxable
income, including realized capital gains, for the fiscal year. In addition, by
distributing substantially all of their net investment income, capital gains and
certain other amounts during the calendar year, the Portfolios and Funds will
not be subject to a federal excise tax.
 
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND FEES
 
PB Investment Advisors, Inc. (the "Advisor"), a wholly owned subsidiary of CGC,
which is a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of AEGON N.V., has been retained
under an Investment Advisory Agreement (the "Agreement") with the Trust, to
supervise the management and investment program of the Trust. The Advisor
manages the affairs of the Trust subject to the supervision of the Board of
Trustees. The Advisor does not receive an investment management fee for the
advisory and asset allocation services it provides to the Portfolios.
 
As full compensation for its services under the Agreement, each Fund will pay
the Advisor a monthly fee at the following annual rates based on the average
daily net assets of each Fund:
 
<TABLE>
<S>                                     <C>
High Quality Stock Fund                      0.65%
Fixed Income Fund                            0.65%
International Active Fund                    0.90%
Money Market Fund                            0.40%
</TABLE>
 
Under the Agreement, the Advisor has agreed to waive and absorb all operating
expenses of each Portfolio and to limit the operating expenses of each Fund so
that the ratio of expenses (excluding advisory fees) to net assets on an annual
basis does not exceed 0.25%. Expenses in excess of such amount will be assumed
by the Advisor until the earlier of the end of three years after commencement of
operations or the termination by the Trustees but not the Advisor of the
Agreement. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Advisor agreed to
reimburse the Trust $343,139 for expenses in excess of the voluntary expense
limitations. As of June 30, 1998, $72,544 was owed to the Trust by the Advisor.
 
The Advisor has entered into a Sub-Advisory Agreement with Atlanta Capital
Management Company, L.L.C. ("Atlanta Capital"), wherein Atlanta Capital will
serve as sub-advisor to the Portfolios. Subject to the supervision and direction
of the Board of Trustees, Atlanta Capital will determine how each Portfolio's
assets will be invested in the Funds. Atlanta Capital also serves as sub-advisor
of the High Quality Stock Fund and
 
                                       27

NOTE 3 (CONTINUED)
 
the Fixed Income Fund. As compensation for its services, with respect to the
High Quality Stock Fund and the Fixed Income Fund, the Advisor pays Atlanta
Capital a fee equal to 0.50% annually on assets up to $25 million, 0.40%
annually on assets above $25 million and up to $50 million, and 0.30% annually
on assets above $50 million.
 
The Advisor has entered into a Sub-Advisory Agreement with Blairlogie Capital
Management ("Blairlogie"), wherein Blairlogie will serve as sub-advisor to the
International Active Fund. As compensation for its services, the Advisor pays
Blairlogie a fee equal to 0.65% annually on assets up to $50 million, and 0.50%
annually on assets above $50 million.
 
The Advisor has entered into a Sub-Advisory Agreement with Federated Investment
Counseling ("Federated"), wherein Federated will serve as sub-advisor to the
Money Market Fund. As compensation for its services, the Advisor pays Federated
a fee equal to 0.25% annually on assets up to $75 million, and 0.20% annually on
assets above $75 million.
 
Each Trustee of the Trust who is not an interested person of the Trust, Advisor
or Sub-Advisors receives $1,500 for each Trustees' meeting in which he
participates.
