PRESIDENT'S LETTER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DEAR SHAREHOLDER,

Over the past several decades, our investment teams have learned the importance
of avoiding complacency when it comes to navigating the financial
markets--especially when times are good. Right now, times appear particularly
good. The U.S. economy is in its tenth year of expansion. In the bond market,
U.S. Treasury issues have been performing favorably over the past year. In
addition, despite volatility in the second quarter, the stock market has been
providing attractive returns from a wide spectrum of industry sectors,
capitalization ranges and investment styles.

       We have arrived at this juncture after months of monitoring the rapid
pace of global economic growth and its implications for inflation, as well as
the Federal Reserve Board's evolving monetary policy. At this point, economic
indicators suggest a dampening of short-term inflationary pressures. While
recent increases in oil prices are certainly taking their toll, we don't believe
this signals a return to 1970's-style inflation. Accordingly, if the Fed
continues in its diligence, the economy could maintain its healthy rate of
growth.

       In the bond market, the achievement of a federal budget surplus has
prompted the Treasury to buy back many of its long-term securities. The
resulting supply shortage boosted these securities' returns, causing an
inversion of the yield curve-- an unusual situation in which shorter term
Treasuries yield more than their longer term counterparts. Other bond sectors
are offering many opportunities in the form of attractive valuations.

       Perhaps most important is that we have begun to see encouraging signs in
the stock market. Formerly high-flying Internet stocks have generally come down
to earth, and investors have begun to refocus on companies with strong business
fundamentals and justifiable valuations. Investors have also returned to
long-neglected, value-oriented companies.

PRESIDENT'S LETTER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

       What else do these various trends tell us? They tell us that the ability
to discriminate between long-term potential and short-lived fads has become more
critical than ever. Trying to generate good long-term performance requires
tracking the best companies through intensive research, combined with
hard-earned experience.

       At OppenheimerFunds, our seasoned portfolio management teams fight
complacency by remaining constantly aware of the risks that face the economy and
financial markets. Virtually anything could affect the overall markets--a surge
in inflation, a decline in productivity, deteriorating corporate earnings, or
even the new Administration's proposals regarding tax reform, healthcare and
Social Security. However, by remaining vigilant in our quest for fundamentally
sound businesses, we believe we can find good investments that can weather
market volatility.

       In this environment, we encourage you to consult your financial advisor
and to stay on track with your long-term financial plan. For our part, we will
continue to monitor the opportunities and risks ever present in the financial
markets. Thank you for your confidence in OppenheimerFunds, The Right Way to
Invest.

Sincerely,

/s/ BRIDGET A. MACASKILL

AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM DURING THE ONE-YEAR PERIOD THAT ENDED AUGUST 31, 2000?

A. Results for Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund for the past year
generally reflected the fortunes of equity markets worldwide, rising
substantially during the first six months of the period and declining
thereafter, to end the period with relatively flat performance.

WHAT HAPPENED IN THE INTERNATIONAL EQUITY MARKETS DURING THE PERIOD?

As in the United States, the performance of international markets was closely
linked to the progress of technology stocks. Following exceptional gains late in
1999 and early in 2000, equities for technology and telecommunications companies
retreated after March 2000. The impact was substantial among technology-related
companies in the developed markets of Europe. As the period drew to a close,
nontechnology issues were, in many cases, faring better than high-tech issues.
Also, throughout 2000, small-company stocks in many markets had delivered higher
returns than had their large-company counterparts.


WHY DID THE FUND INVEST HEAVILY IN EUROPEAN STOCKS DURING THE PERIOD?

We have had a positive outlook for Europe for quite some time now but especially
since the introduction of the euro in January 1999. Major economic, monetary and
tax reforms have paved the way for robust economic growth. Most recently, lower
tax rates, reduced barriers to trade and mergers, and a new emphasis on building
shareholder value have helped greatly to accelerate Europe's transformation.


                3  OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL SMALL COMPANY FUND
<PAGE>   6
"In our view, Europe
remains the leading
contender for strong
economic growth
and market gain in
the coming months."

AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

       For these reasons, we invested a sizable portion of the Fund's assets in
small companies in Europe, including the United Kingdom. These investments
proved especially beneficial to the Fund's performance as markets rose prior to
March 2000. Despite the fallback in technology stocks since then, several of the
Fund's European high-tech holdings proved to be major contributors to the
performance for the 12-month period.

       Although enjoying a positive economic outlook of late, Europe has not
been immune to rising inflation and interest rates. Increasing interest rates
had a negative effect on the Fund's investments in European financial stocks.
Here, the rising interest rates in many European nations caused investors to shy
away from insurance and bank stocks. Finally, the Fund's investments in stocks
from countries in the European Monetary Union (EMU) were, in many cases, hurt by
a general decline in the value of the euro.

       As always, please keep in mind that investing in foreign securities
entails additional expenses and risks, including foreign currency fluctuations.

WHAT PROMPTED YOU TO INCREASE THE FUND'S INVESTMENT IN JAPAN?

While Japan's economy and equity markets continue to fight their way out of a
decade-long depression, there are narrow windows of investment opportunity. For
instance, Japan is home to some of the world's leading providers of electronics
components. At this juncture, the demand for components used in manufacturing a
wide variety of consumer products is beginning to exceed the supply. This has
been good news for component manufacturers such as Takasago Electric Industry
Co. Ltd.

HOW DID THE FUND'S INVESTMENTS IN THE EMERGING MARKETS FARE?

We have maintained a cautious approach to the developing countries in Asia and
have been quite selective in our investments in Latin America. In our opinion,
the non-performing loan problems in Asia that triggered a major retrenchment in
1998 have not yet been adequately resolved. And, while matters in Latin America
are improving, we found only a few companies that met our investment criteria.

       One notable example was Brazilian company Empresa Brasileira de
Aeronautica SA (Embraer), Preference which contributed significantly to the
Fund's total return. Embraer is a well-run Brazilian airline that appears to be
riding the swell of economic growth and consumer affluence around the world.
Since 1994, Brazil has waged outright war against inflation and so far has been
fairly successful. Brazilian interest rates are now declining, and the
government is well positioned to meet its loan payments to the International
Monetary Fund. Added to this is strong U.S. investment in Brazil; several of the
Fortune 500 companies have direct investment there.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR INTERNATIONAL INVESTING?

Despite weakness in the euro, we continue to believe that the tax reform and
corporate restructuring occurring in Europe will fuel gains in its equity
markets.

       We foresee less progress for the markets of Japan and other parts of
Asia, and will remain highly selective in our investment choices in those
countries. Latin America presents a more encouraging scenario, but we continue
to take a cautious approach to our investments in the region. The recent upgrade
in Mexico's debt rating and the growing investment in the region by
multinational corporations point to greater economic stability and better
investment opportunities down the road.

FUND PERFORMANCE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED? Below is a discussion, by the Manager, of the Fund's
performance during its fiscal year ended August 31, 2000, followed by a
graphical comparison of the Fund's performance to an appropriate broad-based
market index and to a sector index.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF PERFORMANCE. The fiscal year that ended August 31,
2000, began with strong increases in markets throughout the world. These
advances were driven largely by a combination of economic growth and investor
enthusiasm for technology-related stocks. After March 2000, investor concerns
about the earnings potential of technology stocks, as well as inflationary
pressures and rising interest rates in the United States and Europe, triggered a
selloff in technology and telecommunications in both regions, affecting many
international markets. In addition, weakness in the euro reduced the total
returns on European investments denominated in U.S. dollars. Throughout the
one-year period, the Fund had a large allocation to European stocks and to
technology-related issues. The Fund invested very selectively in Japan, where
the economy continues to be feeble; and in Latin America, where signs of
economic resurgence are increasingly evident. Investments in Asia, where the
issues that provoked a financial crisis in 1998 remained unresolved, were
limited. The Fund's portfolio holdings, allocations and strategies are subject
to change.

COMPARING THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE TO THE MARKET. The graphs that follow show the
performance of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in Class A, Class B and Class C
shares of the Fund from the commencement date of November 17, 1997 until August
31, 2000. The Fund's performance reflects the deduction of the maximum initial
sales charge on Class A shares, the applicable contingent deferred sales charge
on Class B and Class C shares, and reinvestment of all dividends and capital
gains distributions.

       The Fund's performance is compared to the performances of the HSBC James
Capel World excluding U.S. Smaller Companies Index (WexUS) and the Morgan
Stanley Capital International (MSCI) EAFE Index. The performance of small
international companies is represented by WexUS, an index composed of 1,200
securities with a market capitalization range of $53-$1,033 million in Europe,
UK, Southeast Asia, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. The performance of large
international companies is represented by the MSCI EAFE Index which is composed
of common stocks issued in Europe, Australia and the Far East.

       Index performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends but does not
consider the effect of capital gains or transaction costs, and none of the data
in the graphs shows the effect of taxes. The Fund's performance reflects the
effect of Fund business and operating expenses. While index comparisons may be
useful to provide a benchmark for the Fund's performance, it must be noted that
the Fund's investments are not limited to the securities in either index shown.

NOTES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IN REVIEWING PERFORMANCE AND RANKINGS, PLEASE REMEMBER THAT PAST PERFORMANCE
DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS. 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 THE ORIGINAL COST. THE FUND'S RETURNS
AT 9/30/00 INCLUDE RESULTS FOR PERIODS OF EXCEPTIONAL MARKET PERFORMANCE THAT
ARE NOT TYPICAL OF HISTORICAL RESULTS. YOU SHOULD NOT EXPECT THOSE GROWTH RATES
TO CONTINUE. BECAUSE OF ONGOING MARKET VOLATILITY, THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE HAS
BEEN SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL SHORT-TERM FLUCTUATIONS AND CURRENT PERFORMANCE MAY
BE LESS THAN THE RESULTS SHOWN. FOR QUARTERLY UPDATES ON THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE,
PLEASE CONTACT YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR, CALL US AT 1.800.525.7048 OR VISIT OUR
WEBSITE AT WWW.OPPENHEIMERFUNDS.COM.

Total returns and the ending account values in the graphs include changes in
share price and reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in a
hypothetical investment for the periods shown. The Fund's total returns shown do
not show the effects of income taxes on an individual's investment. Taxes may
reduce your actual investment returns on income or gains paid by the Fund or any
gains you may realize if you sell your shares.

CLASS A shares were first publicly offered on 11/17/97. Class A returns include
the maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%.

CLASS B shares were first publicly offered on 11/17/97. Class B returns include
the applicable contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 3% (since
commencement). Class B shares are subject to a 0.75% annual asset-based sales
charge. The ending account value in the graph is net of the applicable 3%
contingent deferred sales charge.

CLASS C shares were first publicly offered on 11/17/97. Class C returns include
the contingent deferred sales charge of 1% for the one-year period. Class C
shares are subject to a 0.75% annual asset-based sales charge.

An explanation of the calculation of performance is in the Fund's Statement of
Additional Information.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


================================================================================
 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund (the Fund) is registered under the
 Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
 investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term
 capital appreciation. The Fund's investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc.
 (the Manager).

       The Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Class A shares are
 sold at their offering price, which is normally net asset value plus a
 front-end sales charge. Class B and Class C shares are sold without a front-end
 sales charge but may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC).
 All classes of shares have identical rights to earnings, assets and voting
 privileges, except that each class has its own expenses directly attributable
 to that class and exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting
 that class. Classes A, B and C have separate distribution and/or service plans.
 Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six years after the
 date of purchase. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
 consistently followed by the Fund.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 SECURITIES VALUATION. Securities listed or traded on National Stock Exchanges
 or other domestic or foreign exchanges are valued based on the last sale price
 of the security traded on that exchange 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 closing
 bid and asked prices, and if not, at the closing bid price. Securities
 (including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily
 available are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations, a portfolio
 pricing service authorized by the Board of Trustees, or at their fair value.
 Fair value is determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures
 under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term "money market type"
 debt securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less are valued at
 amortized cost (which approximates market value).


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 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.

================================================================================

 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  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.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ALLOCATION OF INCOME, EXPENSES, GAINS AND LOSSES. Income, expenses (other than
 those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily
 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 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. Therefore, no
 federal income or excise tax provision is required.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 TRUSTEES' COMPENSATION. The Fund has adopted an unfunded retirement plan for
 the Fund's independent Board of Trustees. Benefits are based on years of
 service and fees paid to each trustee during the years of service. During the
 year ended August 31, 2000, a provision of $5,899 was made for the Fund's
 projected benefit obligations and payments of $460 were made to retired
 trustees, resulting in an accumulated liability of $32,718 as of August 31,
 2000.

       The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for
 independent trustees that enables trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or
 a portion of annual compensation they are entitled to receive from the Fund.
 Under the plan, the compensation deferred is periodically adjusted as though an
 equivalent amount had been invested for the Board of Trustees in shares of one
 or more Oppenheimer funds selected by the trustee. The amount paid to the Board
 of Trustees under the plan will be determined based upon the performance of the
 selected funds. 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.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends and distributions to
 shareholders, which are determined in accordance with income tax regulations,
 are recorded on the ex-dividend date.


             26  OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL SMALL COMPANY FUND

<PAGE>   29


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 CLASSIFICATION OF DIVIDENDS AND 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 dividends and distributions made
 during the fiscal 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 dividends and 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.

       The Fund adjusts the classification of distributions to shareholders to
 reflect the differences between financial statement amounts and distributions
 determined in accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the
 year ended August 31, 2000, amounts have been reclassified to reflect an
 increase in paid-in capital of $2,103,557, a decrease in overdistributed net
 investment income of $1,397,360, and a decrease in accumulated net realized
 gain on investments of $3,500,917. This reclassification includes $2,103,557
 distributed in connection with Fund share redemptions which increased paid-in
 capital and reduced accumulated net realized gain. Net assets of the Fund were
 unaffected by the reclassifications.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 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. Certain dividends from foreign
 securities will be recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the dividend if
 such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Realized gains
 and losses on investments and unrealized appreciation and depreciation are
 determined on an identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for
 federal income tax purposes.

       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.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES   Continued

 The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A shares and Distribution and
 Service Plans for Class B and Class C shares under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment
 Company Act. Under those plans the Fund pays the Distributor for all or a
 portion of its costs incurred in connection with the distribution and/or
 servicing of the shares of the particular class.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 CLASS A SERVICE PLAN FEES. Under the Class A service plan, the Distributor
 currently uses the fees it receives from the Fund to pay brokers, dealers and
 other financial institutions. The Class A service plan permits reimbursements
 to the Distributor at a rate of up to 0.25% of average annual net assets of
 Class A shares purchased. The Distributor makes payments to plan recipients
 quarterly at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average annual net
 assets consisting of Class A shares of the Fund. For the year ended August 31,
 2000, payments under the Class A plan totaled $123,250 prior to Manager waivers
 if applicable, all of which were paid by the Distributor to recipients, and
 included $8,605 paid to an affiliate of the Manager. Any unreimbursed expenses
 the Distributor incurs with respect to Class A shares in any fiscal year cannot
 be recovered in subsequent years.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 CLASS B AND CLASS C DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN FEES. Under each plan,
 service fees and distribution fees are computed on the average of the net asset
 value of shares in the respective class, determined as of the close of each
 regular business day during the period. The Class B and Class C plans provide
 for the Distributor to be compensated at a flat rate, whether the Distributor's
 distribution expenses are more or less than the amounts paid by the Fund under
 the plan during the period for which the fee is paid.

       The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class B shares.
 The Distributor retains the asset-based sales charge on Class C shares during
 the first year the shares are outstanding. The asset-based sales charges on
 Class B and Class C shares allow investors to buy shares without a front-end
 sales charge while allowing the Distributor to compensate dealers that sell
 those shares.

       The Distributor's actual expenses in selling Class B and Class C shares
 may be more than the payments it receives from the contingent deferred sales
 charges collected on redeemed shares and asset-based sales charges from the
 Fund under the plans. If any plan is terminated by the Fund, the Board of
 Trustees may allow the Fund to continue payments of the asset-based sales
 charge to the Distributor for distributing shares before the plan was
 terminated. The plans allow for the carryforward of distribution expenses, to
 be recovered from asset-based sales charges in subsequent fiscal periods.

       Distribution fees paid to the Distributor for the year ended August 31,
 2000, were as follows:

 5. FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS

 A foreign currency 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 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 August 31, 2000, the Fund had outstanding
 foreign currency contracts as follows:

 6. BANK BORROWINGS

 The Fund may borrow from a bank for temporary or emergency purposes including,
 without limitation, funding of shareholder redemptions provided asset coverage
 for borrowings exceeds 300%. The Fund has entered into an agreement which
 enables it to participate with other Oppenheimer funds in an unsecured line of
 credit with a bank, which permits borrowings up to $400 million, collectively.
 Interest is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to
 the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.45%. Borrowings are payable 30 days after such
 loan is executed. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata
 share of the average unutilized amount of the credit facility at a rate of
 0.08% per annum.

      The Fund had no borrowings outstanding during the year ended August 31,
2000.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


================================================================================
 THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF OPPENHEIMER INTERNATIONAL SMALL
 COMPANY FUND:

 We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
 the statement of investments, of Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund
 as of August 31, 2000, and the related statement of operations for the year
 then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in
 the two-year period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the
 years in the two-year period then ended and the period from November 17, 1997
 (commencement of operations) to August 31, 1998. These financial statements and
 financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
 responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
 financial highlights based on our audits.

       We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
 accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
 and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material
 misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
 the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures
 included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2000, by
 correspondence with the custodian and brokers; and where confirmations were not
 received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also
 includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
 made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
 presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
 opinion.

       In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
 referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
 position of Oppenheimer International Small Company Fund as of August 31, 2000,
 the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net
 assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the
 financial highlights for each of the years in the two-year period then ended
 and the period from November 17, 1997 (commencement of operations) to August
 31, 1998, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
 United States of America.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION  Unaudited
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


================================================================================
In early 2001 shareholders will receive information regarding all dividends and
distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 2000. Regulations of
the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund to report this information to the
Internal Revenue Service.

       Dividends and distributions of $3.2173, $3.1387, and $3.1594 per share
 were paid to Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively, on
 December 6, 1999, of which $0.1925 was designated as a "capital gain
 distribution" for federal income tax purposes. Whether received in stock or in
 cash, the capital gain distribution should be treated by shareholders as a gain
 from the sale of capital assets held for more than one year (long-term capital
 gains).

        The dividends paid by the Fund during the year ended August 31, 2000,
 are not eligible for the corporate dividend-received deduction.

        The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in
 reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service.
 Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your
 individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax
 regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific
