This report shows investment results for Class 1 and Class 2 shares of the
funds in American Variable Insurance Series. Class 2 shares began operations on
April 30, 1997. Results that encompass periods prior to that date assume a
hypothetical investment in Class 1 shares, and include deduction of the
additional 0.25% annual expense for Class 2 shares under the series' Plan of
Distribution. The variable annuities and life insurance contracts that use the
series' funds contain certain fees and expenses not reflected here.

FELLOW INVESTORS:
This annual report of American Variable Insurance Series covers an unusual time
frame - the 13 months from December 1, 1998, to December 31, 1999. This was
done to accommodate a one-month shift in the close of the series' fiscal year,
from November 30, the current fiscal close, to December 31, the new fiscal
year-end. Since we are required to report returns for both periods, we have
combined the two reporting periods in a single publication to reduce printing
and mailing costs.
The funds in the series serve as the underlying investment vehicles for the
American Legacy variable annuities and other insurance products.
TECHNOLOGY STOCKS SKYROCKET
Global equity markets closed out the millennium with much fanfare, having made
considerable progress during the year. Investor fears of Y2K computer glitches
took a back seat to even greater fears of missing out on a boom in so-called
"new economy" investments - namely, technology and telecommunications stocks.
Beneficiaries ran the gamut from such established global companies as Cisco
Systems, Nokia, Oracle and Mannesmann to virtually any stock with "dot-com" in
its name.
Although we have tended to avoid highly volatile Internet issues, we have been
enthusiastic for some time about the prospects for technology, media and
telecommunications companies, the most successful of which are harnessing the
potential of the Internet. All three industries are well-represented throughout
the portfolios. As a result, the rally proved advantageous for the series'
stock funds; most posted outstanding results for the period.
Largely on the strength of the technology surge, most major stock markets
around the world ended the 13-month period substantially higher than where they
began. The unmanaged Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Index, a widely used proxy
for large U.S. stocks, rose 28.3% with dividends reinvested. Smaller U.S.
stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000 Index, gained 28.8%, rebounding from
depressed levels. International stocks did even better, appreciating 32.4%, as
tracked by the Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE(r) (Europe,
Australasia, Far East) Index.

MOST OF THE SERIES' STOCK FUNDS POSTED OUTSTANDING RESULTS FOR THE PERIOD.
[End Sidebar]
It should be noted that these broad advances, however welcome, occurred within
an unusually narrow range of securities. The run-up in technology stocks
obscured steep declines in most other sectors - such as banking, utilities and
insurance - which were hobbled by rising interest rates in the U.S. and Europe.
Indeed, the divergence between the best- and worst-performing sectors of the
market has widened considerably in recent years: Notwithstanding the 28.3%
increase in the S&P 500, about half of the stocks in the index actually
declined during the 13 months. That disparity generally held true for
international markets as well and signals caution in the year ahead.
GLOBAL ECONOMIES BRIGHTEN, MERGERS QUICKEN THEIR PACE
The rise in interest rates was a byproduct of renewed vigor in many of the
world's economies, with Asia's turnaround taking center stage. Although Asia's
recovery is still fragile, investors were encouraged by corporate restructuring
efforts and government commitments to enforce accountability, particularly
within their banking systems. In Japan, U.S. investors received an extra boost
from a strengthening currency; stock prices rose 39.9% in yen, but 68.1% when
translated into U.S. dollars./1/ Elsewhere in Asia, Taiwan rose by 36.3%, India
by 103.0% and Singapore by 96.9%. South Korea gained an astounding 163.7%,
albeit from a severely depressed base.
/1/Country returns are based on MSCI indexes for the 13-month period, expressed
in dollar terms and assume reinvestment of dividends.
European markets tended to be lackluster by comparison, hampered by stubbornly
high unemployment and disappointment in the weakening of the euro, the common
currency, against the dollar and the yen. Still, Europe appears to be on the
brink of an economic revival, and pockets of investor optimism have already
emerged. In France, for example, consumer confidence lifted stock prices 35.1%;
in Germany, a pick-up in manufacturing pushed up stock prices 23.6%. Finland
(+199.4%) was Europe's biggest gainer, although virtually all of that increase
came from Nokia, the world's leading wireless phone maker, which represents
more than 90% of that country's market capitalization. The United Kingdom,
meanwhile, returned a respectable 16.0% as the government attempts to keep
economic growth on an even keel.
Throughout the world, the pace of merger activity again set records,
particularly in the telecommunications sector. In a flurry of empire-building
worthy of the royal dynasties of Europe, service providers are rushing to link
up not only with each other, but with technology firms and cable television
operators as they compete to lead the next wave of the communications
revolution. In recent months alone, Vodafone AirTouch, itself the product of a
merger earlier in the year, made a bid for German-based Mannesmann, which is in
the process of acquiring yet another wireless operator, Orange of the U.K.
AT&T, meanwhile, has added cable companies Tele-Communications and MediaOne to
its domain; Microsoft, which bought a large stake in AT&T, just announced a
joint venture with Ericsson, the Swedish telecommunications equipment giant, to
develop Internet access, e-mail and other applications for wireless phones.
INTEREST RATES RISE, BONDS FALL
The optimism fueling equity markets did not spread to U.S. bond investors, who
tended to hold a less sanguine view of the future. Although inflation remains
remarkably subdued amid continued growth in the U.S., there have been signs of
higher prices in the pipeline: Wage pressures began to intensify as
unemployment fell to record lows, and the cost of oil and other raw materials
rose sharply. The anticipation of preemptive measures by the U.S. Federal
Reserve Board - confirmed by quarter-point increases in short-term interest
rates in June, August and November - dampened bond prices considerably
throughout the year. Yields on 30-year Treasury bonds, which began the period
at 5.1%, were 6.5% at December 31, reflecting a nearly 20% drop in price. (Bond
yields and prices move in opposite directions.) The decline was indiscriminate,
taking down virtually every sector of the bond market, although lower rated
bonds and those of developing markets tended to hold up somewhat better. Not
surprisingly in this environment, the series' bond funds posted somewhat anemic
returns.

A NEW INVESTMENT OPTION
We are pleased to announce that we have once again expanded our portfolio of
choices. In June, we introduced New World Fund, our eleventh investment option.
The fund, which mirrors an American Fund of the same name, is designed to
uniquely tap the growth potential of developing countries. Our decision to
offer this new fund, like all of our investment decisions, is based on careful
research and a conviction about our ability to seek out rewarding long-term
investment opportunities.
The eleven funds in American Variable Insurance Series provide a diverse
spectrum of tools to help you build a secure financial future. Regardless of
investment objective, what all these funds have in common is the singular
philosophy of Capital Research and Management Company, the series' investment
adviser. Capital's approach - characterized by careful attention to risk, a
search for value and a long-term perspective - remains consistent through all
market conditions. It has not changed in the nearly seven decades that we have
been managing investments.

Here are brief comments about each of the funds. Returns are for Class 2 shares
for the 12 months ended November 30, 1999, and the month ended December 31,
1999. Results for other periods and for Class 1 shares are detailed on pages 8
through 11.
GLOBAL GROWTH FUND returned 51.5% for the 12 months ended November 30, and
18.5% for the month of December. With the flexibility to invest virtually
anywhere in the world, the fund was well-positioned to benefit from the rallies
in Asian and technology-related stocks. Among larger holdings that did
strikingly well, Murata, a producer of computer component parts, more than
quadrupled in share price; software giant Oracle almost tripled. The fund was
also helped by its increasingly large exposure to Asia and the Pacific Basin,
which, at 30% of net assets at December 31, was more than twice what it was 13
months earlier.
GLOBAL SMALL CAPITALIZATION FUND appreciated an outstanding 91.9% as of
November 30 and rose another 11.7% in December. Good stock selection helped the
fund achieve superior results, although it almost goes without saying that we
would not expect another gain of this magnitude any time soon. Not
surprisingly, technology companies achieved the greatest increases in the
portfolio. Many are little-known firms that are nonetheless responsible for
supplying the "guts" of today's powerful computers - everything from
semiconductors to networking software. The portfolio is broadly diversified,
though, encompassing a wide range of companies, industries and countries.
GROWTH FUND gained 52.2% through November 30 and 14.4% in December. The fund's
primary objective is growth of capital, and we are pleased to note that the
majority of holdings increased in price. The fund was especially well served by
its sizable exposure to technology-related companies, although many other
holdings also appreciated. That said, concern about the current valuations of
many technology stocks has led us to look to other sectors, such as health
care, for better values. The portfolio invests primarily in U.S. companies,
although most do a significant amount of business abroad.

INTERNATIONAL FUND increased 56.2% for the 12 months ended November 30 and
18.2% for the month of December. The fund enjoyed the best of all possible
worlds during the period - a rebound in Asian markets, a boom in
telecommunications-related stocks and strong appreciation in the yen relative
to the dollar, which boosted Japanese stock prices for U.S.-based investors.
Some of the period's biggest gainers included Samsung Electronics, Telefonos de
Mexico, Sony and Rohm, all of which are large holdings. Despite general
weakness in Europe, a number of investments - Deutsche Telekom, Mannesmann and
CANAL+, to name three - handily outpaced the markets in which they are traded.
NEW WORLD FUND posted a 5.7% return from its inception date of June 17, 1999 to
November 30, and an 11.9% return for December. The fund is designed to
participate in the growth of the developing world while tempering the
volatility normally associated with these markets. The fund's three-fold
strategy is unique: It invests directly in equities of companies based in
developing markets; in the equities of developed-market companies doing
significant business in developing countries; and in debt securities with
exposure to developing markets. Research is another way to reduce volatility,
and our experienced analysts have been doing their homework carefully to find
appropriate investments for the fund. To date, the portfolio is about 80%
invested. The table on page 6 shows net assets by country.

GROWTH-INCOME FUND appreciated 12.6% for the 12 months ended November 30 and
3.2% for the month of December. The fund's focus on dividend-paying stocks held
results back a bit, as investors fretted about the possible negative impact of
rising interest rates on earnings. Technology firms - such as Texas
Instruments, the largest holding - were among those showing the strongest
increases, but other investments also did well. Notable among them were
Weyerhaeuser, Bowater, Kerr-McGee, Atlantic Richfield and other producers of
energy and basic materials, which benefited from rising commodities prices.
Given the general level of speculation we are seeing in the market, we have
kept a fairly high reserve of cash and equivalents as a cushion.
ASSET ALLOCATION FUND returned 7.4% through November 30 and 1.4% for the month
of December. The fund is managed as though it constitutes the complete U.S.
portfolio of a prudent investor, with a balance of stocks, bonds and short-term
instruments. The equity portion, accounting for more than 60% of net assets,
emphasizes large, solid businesses across a wide range of industries. Of the
companies represented, large holdings include Citigroup, Hewlett-Packard,
Carnival and Corning, all of which did well over the period. Nonetheless,
overall results were dampened by the bonds in the portfolio, which fell as
interest rates rose. About 30% of assets are invested in bonds; the balance,
under 10% of assets, is held in cash and equivalents.
BOND FUND registered a gain of 2.1% for the 12 months ended November 30 and
0.6% for December. Although the fund can invest in virtually any type of bond,
there were few places to hide during the year. The fund was helped by its
corporate holdings, but rising interest rates sent jitters throughout the
fixed-income universe. It remains to be seen whether the upward trend in rates
will continue; in the meantime, buying opportunities abound and the portfolio
remains extremely well-diversified. Investments encompass a wide range of
corporate and government bonds issued in the U.S. and throughout the world.
HIGH-YIELD BOND FUND rose 4.0% for the year ended November 30 and 1.8% for
December. Lower quality bonds, which typically pay higher yields to compensate
for a higher risk of default, share certain characteristics with stocks in that
they are sensitive to the rise and fall of a company's fortunes, as well as
interest rates. As a result, high-yield bonds received some help during the
year from a strong equity market, holding up better than their investment-grade
counterparts. The fund also benefited from good bond selection, particularly
among its telecommunications-related issues. Looking forward, increasing demand
for high-yield instruments may signal new strength in the coming months.
U.S. GOVERNMENT/AAA-RATED SECURITIES FUND posted a 0.1% return through November
30 and a 0.4% loss for December. To a large degree, the fund's meager return
represents the flip-side of last year's exceptional gains. U.S. Treasury
securities retreated sharply during the reporting period, in the face of rising
commodities prices, robust economic growth and the tightest labor market in
three decades. Matters worsened in the summer, when a strengthening yen made
dollar-denominated bonds even less appealing to foreign investors. Losses were
tempered somewhat by investments in mortgage-backed securities, which generally
held up better than U.S. Treasury securities.
CASH MANAGEMENT FUND provided a 12-month return of 4.5% through November 30,
and a one-month return of 0.4% for December. Yields on short-term instruments
rose modestly in response to credit tightening by the Federal Reserve. Managed
for relative stability and a reasonable rate of return, the fund can be an
important diversification tool, as well as a base for making tax-free
investments into other funds in the series. About three-quarters of assets are
concentrated in top-grade commercial paper, with the balance invested in U.S.
Treasury and federal agency bills.
In keeping with the series' new fiscal close, our next report to investors will
cover the six months through June 30. We look forward to communicating with you
then.

THE VALUE OF A LONG-TERM PERSPECTIVE
There have always been reasons not to invest. If you look beyond negative
headlines, however, you will find that, despite occasional stumbles, financial
markets have tended to reward investors over the long term. These charts
illustrate the growth of a $10,000 investment in each of the investment
portfolios in American Variable Insurance Series (with the exception of the
Cash Management Fund, which is managed to provide preservation of principal)
over the past 10 years - or lifetime of the fund, if shorter than 10 years. The
charts reflect results for Class 2 shares. Class 2 shares began operations on
April 30, 1997. Results encompassing periods prior to that date assume a
hypothetical investment in Class 1 shares, and deduction of the additional
0.25% annual expense for Class 2 shares under the series' Plan of Distribution.
The tables show the average annual compound returns over various periods for
both Class 1 and Class 2 shares.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT VARIABLE ANNUITIES
Variable annuities are sometimes described as "mutual funds in an insurance
wrapper." While variable annuities and mutual funds do share a number of
characteristics - both offer diversification, growth potential and professional
management - variable annuities offer a host of additional features that mutual
funds don't. There is a trade-off for these extras in that owners of variable
annuity contracts typically pay higher annual fees to cover the costs of these
benefits. For investors with a long time horizon, however, variable annuities
can be a valuable tool to help build a financially secure future.
"Insurance-speak" is famously obscure, and the language of variable annuities
is no exception. That can make understanding these retirement vehicles somewhat
daunting, but their basic structure is fairly simple. On the following pages,
we offer a "primer" on how individual variable annuities work.* We also suggest
you consult your financial adviser, who can help you get the most out of the
lifetime of choices that your American Legacy contract provides.
*Certain features do not apply to annuities sold through retirement plans.

A VARIABLE ANNUITY LEXICON
ANNUITIZE: to convert the accumulated value of your contract into a stream of
income.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE: a surrender charge that applies to certain
early withdrawals.
CONTRACT VALUE: the total assets in your variable annuity, including original
investments.
DEATH BENEFIT: the amount payable to beneficiaries if you die before you begin
to annuitize your contract.
FIXED ACCOUNT: an account that pays a set rate of interest, guaranteed by the
insurer. Unlike variable funds, fixed accounts offer a predictable income
stream, but no growth potential.
INVESTMENT ADVISER: the firm that manages the variable funds within a variable
annuity.
PURCHASE PAYMENT: money you invest in your annuity contract.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT: the account that holds your variable annuity assets; it is
separate from the general assets of the insurance company.
TAX DEFERRAL: the ability to put off to a later time the payment of taxes.
UNITS: the shares you own in the variable funds.
VARIABLE ANNUITY: an annuity contract that allows you to allocate your purchase
payments among a number of investment options. Your contract value, which will
fluctuate, reflects the total return of the securities in the portfolios,
including a fixed account, minus the asset charges of your contract.
VARIABLE FUND: an investment choice within a variable annuity (also known as a
subaccount or underlying investment).

GROWTH POTENTIAL
[illustration of gardening water spout pouring letters]
DID YOU KNOW...
...The variable annuity was first introduced in 1952 as the College Retirement
Equity Fund (CREF) by the Teacher's Insurance and Annuity Association (TIAA).
It was available only to educators.
...In the mid-1980s, sweeping tax reform legislation eliminated many
tax-advantaged investments. Variable annuities were one of the few to survive.
...Today, as more Americans take responsibility for their own retirement
assets, variable annuities are more appealing than ever. According to the
National Association for Variable Annuities, annual sales have doubled since
1995, with total assets in variable annuities close to $1 trillion.
[End Sidebar]
MULTIPLE CHOICE
In some respects, variable annuities will feel familiar to anyone who has
invested with a mutual fund family. Like mutual funds, variable annuities
generally offer long-term growth potential from a variety of broadly
diversified, professionally managed portfolios.
Variable annuities have a crucial advantage over mutual funds, though: built-in
tax deferral on gains - whether from interest income, dividends or capital
gains. That means that money you otherwise would have paid in taxes each year
stays in your account. You only have to pay income taxes on those earnings when
you start taking withdrawals. The long-term impact of tax-deferred compounding
can be dramatic, particularly if the underlying investments do well.
KEEP YOUR BALANCE
A key advantage of owning a variable annuity is that it allows you to customize
a financial program from a wide array of investment options, all under a
single, tax-deferred umbrella.
Although funds in variable annuities are inherently diversified, containing
from dozens to hundreds of securities, it's a good idea to spread your money
across different types of investments as well. Most contract owners focus on
stocks, since they have historically been one of the best solutions to
overcoming the long-term effects of inflation and taxes. Many diversify further
by investing in international, small-company or developing markets funds, and
round out their choices with one or more bond portfolios or a money market
option.*
*Investments outside the United States, especially those in developing
countries, involve additional risks, which are outlined in the prospectus.
[Begin Sidebar]
VARIABLE ANNUITIES ALLOW YOU TO CUSTOMIZE AN INVESTMENT PROGRAM, ALL UNDER A
SINGLE TAX-DEFERRED UMBRELLA.
[End Sidebar]
Variable annuities make asset allocation - the practice of balancing your
investments among different asset classes - easy and inexpensive. Unlike mutual
fund transfers, even within the same family, all variable annuities allow you
to make exchanges between variable funds free of current taxes, giving you the
freedom to adapt your portfolio as your time horizon or investment goals
change. At some point, for example, you may wish to add an international fund,
or increase your bond holdings as you near retirement.
Allocation decisions depend on many factors, including your risk tolerance and
when you'll need to take income. Your financial adviser can help you determine
an investment plan that's most appropriate to your own situation. Some
contracts, including American Legacy, automatically regulate your investment
balance by regularly transferring money among designated funds. Your financial
adviser can tell you if this is a good option for you.
THE INSURANCE UMBRELLA
In addition to tax deferral, variable annuities offer a number of features and
guarantees that are backed by the claims-paying ability of the insurance
company issuing your contract. Details can vary widely, but typically include:
* A GUARANTEED MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT, which protects your beneficiaries from
any loss of principal if the market value of your holdings declines. In most
cases, your heirs will receive at least your current account value or the
amount of your aggregate purchase payments (less any withdrawals already made)
- - whichever is greater. Some contracts adjust the minimum annually. For many
people, the guaranteed minimum death benefit gives them the comfort to invest
in stocks, which can be volatile at times.
* An ANNUITIZATION OPTION, which guarantees an income for life or a specified
period.
* A choice of FIXED ACCOUNTS that pay a guaranteed rate of interest.
As an added safeguard, your variable annuity assets are held in a separate
account from the insurance company's general assets and liabilities, and cannot
be used for any other purpose. Nonetheless, it's important to deal with a
company with proven strength and reliability (see "An American Legacy Who's
Who" on page 13).
TAKING WITHDRAWALS
Variable annuities have two phases: the accumulation phase, when you maximize
the potential of tax-deferred growth; and the distribution phase, when you take
income from your investment.
[Begin Sidebar]
INSURANCE PROTECTION
[illustration of umbrella with falling letters]
[End Sidebar]
[Begin Sidebar]
WHY A VARIABLE ANNUITY IS NOT AN IRA
While tax-conscious investors should not neglect individual retirement accounts
(IRAs) or employer-sponsored retirement plans such as 401(k)s, not all
investment vehicles are alike:
VARIABLE ANNUITIES
There are no Internal Revenue restrictions on the amount you can invest.
Investments may derive from any source -including sale of property, investment
earnings, a gift or inheritance.
There is no maximum withdrawal age (although most contracts require annuitants
to begin taking income by 85 or so).
IRAS
Tax benefits on income invested are limited to $2,000 a year.
Contributions must be made from earned income.
Withdrawals from traditional IRAs must begin at age 70-1$2 (does not apply to
Roth IRAs).
You may own an individual retirement annuity that was created by rolling over
assets from a qualified retirement plan such as a pension, 401(k) or IRA. If
that's the case, you receive the insurance benefits of a variable annuity, but
are also subject to some of the restrictions of these qualified plans.
[End Sidebar]
Most contracts offer an abundance of withdrawal options:
* You may ANNUITIZE YOUR CONTRACT, which converts your assets into an income
stream guaranteed to last for the rest of your life or a period you specify.
The sum of your payout depends on your life expectancy and the value of your
account, but you control how the payments are structured and the age at which
you begin receiving payments. Most contracts require annuitants to begin taking
income by age 85 or 90.
* If you choose a VARIABLE INCOME PAYOUT, your monthly payments will vary with
the returns of the variable funds you have selected. If those investments grow
over time, that can help your income keep up with, or even outpace, inflation.
* You can set up SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWALS of either a specified dollar amount or
a percentage of assets in your account to be paid out at regular intervals.
This option does not guarantee a lifetime income.
* OCCASIONAL WITHDRAWALS can be made for discretionary expenses.
* A LUMP-SUM WITHDRAWAL of the entire account is the least preferred option,
because you will have to pay income taxes all at once, and possibly in a higher
tax bracket. Most contract owners take out only the money they plan to use
right away.
SOME CONSIDERATIONS: In most cases, annuitization is irreversible once payouts
begin, so make your decision carefully. Also, like most tax-deferred retirement
plans, the government usually imposes an additional 10% tax on withdrawals made
before age 59-1$2. Most variable annuities apply a contingent deferred sales
charge to withdrawals of principal made within a contract's early years.
UNDERSTANDING THE COSTS
The advantages of tax-deferral, a guaranteed death benefit and the
annuitization option come at a price - in the form of annual charges by the
insurance company that issues your contract. Leaving your variable annuity
intact for the long haul, though, increases the likelihood that your gains and
the impact of tax deferral will offset these costs.
Asset charges generally run about 1% to 1-1$2% a year, depending on the insurer
and the type of contract you buy; they cover service and administrative costs
and compensate the insurance company for the assumption of certain risks. Some
variable annuities also charge a flat yearly contract fee - typically less than
$50 - to cover record-keeping costs. Like mutual fund investors, contract
owners are also subject to annual fees charged by the investment adviser that
manages the variable funds. Both Capital Research and Management Company,
American Legacy's investment adviser, and Lincoln Life are committed to keeping
annual expenses as low as possible.
Finally, there are penalties for dipping into your savings too soon. Because
variable annuities are viewed primarily as retirement vehicles, the government
usually extracts an additional 10% tax from earnings withdrawn before age
59-1/2. And while variable annuities are not typically subject to an up-front
sales charge, most impose a contingent deferred sales charge on purchase
payments that are withdrawn in the early years of a contract. These charges
typically begin at 6% or 7% a year during a contract's first two years, and
then decline by a percentage point each year after that until reaching 0%.

MODERATING RISK
Financial markets can be turbulent, particularly over the short term. Although
price declines are normal, they make many investors uncomfortable. It's
important to keep your risk tolerance in mind when you invest, but there are a
few steps you can take to help mitigate that volatility:
* SPREAD YOUR INVESTMENTS ACROSS DIFFERENT TYPES OF ASSETS to minimize the
likelihood that your entire portfolio will decline at the same time.
* Use the money market option or the DOLLAR COST AVERAGING account as a base
from which to make automatic, tax-free transfers into the variable funds. While
it cannot assure a profit or protect you from loss, dollar cost averaging can
give you the discipline to avoid making sizable investments at market peaks.
You should also consider your willingness to continue making purchases during
periods of declining prices.
* MAINTAIN A LONG-TERM PERSPECTIVE. The value of stocks and bonds has tended to
increase over the long term, particularly when distributions are reinvested, as
they are with variable annuities.
* CHOOSE AN EXPERIENCED INVESTMENT ADVISER. Since 1931, Capital Research, which
manages the variable funds in American Legacy, has invested with a long-term
focus based on thorough research and careful attention to risk.

INCOME FOR RETIREMENT
[illustration of piggy bank with coins falling into slot]
[End Sidebar]
A LEGACY FOR THE FUTURE
The minimum death benefit guarantee typically stipulates that if you die before
your contract annuitizes, beneficiaries will receive the amount of your
principal investment, less any withdrawals, or the current value of your
account, whichever is higher. You select the payout schedule; the amount they
receive will depend on the particular features of the contract.
Bear in mind, though, that your heirs will owe income taxes (and potential
estate taxes) upon receiving a death benefit, so it is a good idea to make
provisions that minimize their eventual tax burden. For example, you might
prevent your beneficiary's having to pay at a higher income tax rate by
selecting a payout that extends over his or her lifetime rather than in a lump
sum.
[Begin Sidebar]
YOU MAY CHOOSE TO CONVERT YOUR ASSETS INTO AN INCOME STREAM GUARANTEED TO LAST
THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.
[End Sidebar]
That said, variable annuities are best used to fund your own retirement. If you
have earmarked a portion of your assets for your family, many insurers also
carry variable life insurance products, which not only offer insurance
protection, investment flexibility and the potential for tax-deferred growth,

Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION - American Variable Insurance Series (the "series") is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified management
investment company with 11 different funds. The 11th fund, the New World Fund,
commenced operations on June 17, 1999. The assets of each fund are segregated,
with each fund accounted for separately. The funds' investment objectives are
as follows: Global Growth Fund - growth of capital by investing primarily in
common stocks or securities with common stock characteristics of issuers
domiciled around the world; Global Small Capitalization Fund - long-term growth
of capital by investing primarily in smaller companies in the United States and
around the world; Growth Fund - growth of capital by investing primarily in
common stocks or securities with common stock characteristics; New World Fund -
long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in stocks of companies with
significant exposure to countries which have developing economies and/or
markets. International Fund - long-term growth of capital by investing
primarily in securities of issuers domiciled outside the United States;
Growth-Income Fund - growth of capital and income by investing primarily in
common stocks or other securities which demonstrate the potential for
appreciation and/or dividends; Asset Allocation Fund - high total return
(including income and capital gains) consistent with long-term preservation of
capital; Bond Fund - as high a level of current income as is consistent with
the preservation of capital by investing primarily in fixed-income securities;
High-Yield Bond Fund - high current income and, secondarily, capital
appreciation by investing primarily in intermediate and long-term corporate
obligations, with emphasis on higher yielding, higher risk, lower rated or
unrated securities; U.S. Government/AAA-Rated Securities Fund - a high level of
current income consistent with prudent investment risk and preservation of
capital by investing primarily in a combination of securities guaranteed by the
U.S. government and other debt securities rated AAA or Aaa; Cash Management
Fund - high current yield while preserving capital by investing in a
diversified selection of high-quality money market instruments.
Each fund offers Class 1 and Class 2 shares. Class 1 shares are not subject
to either an initial or contingent deferred sales charge nor have they adopted
a plan of distribution to cover any distribution expenses. Class 2 shares are
subject to certain fees pursuant to a Plan of Distribution. Holders of both
classes of shares have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights
and shall have exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only their
classes. The shares of each class represent an interest in the same portfolio
of investments of each fund.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - The financial statements have been prepared
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which require
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. The series' year-end changed from November 30 to December 31
effective December 1, 1999. The following is a summary of the significant
accounting policies consistently followed by the series in the preparation of
its financial statements:
SECURITY VALUATION - Equity securities, including depositary receipts, are
valued at the last reported sale price on the exchange or market on which such
securities are traded, as of the close of business on the day the securities
are being valued or, lacking any sales, at the last available bid price. In
cases where equity securities are traded on more than one exchange, the
securities are valued on the exchange or market determined by the investment
adviser to be the broadest and most representative market, which may be either
a securities exchange or the over-the-counter market. Fixed-income securities
are valued at prices obtained from a pricing service, when such prices are
available; however, in circumstances where the investment adviser deems it
appropriate to do so, such securities will be valued at the mean quoted bid and
asked prices or at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and
type. The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the series to
meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific
industry, state or region. Short-term securities maturing within 60 days are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Forward currency
contracts are valued at the mean of their representative quoted bid and asked
prices. Securities and assets for which representative market quotations are
not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by a
committee appointed by the Board of Trustees.
NON-U.S. CURRENCY TRANSLATION - Assets and liabilities initially expressed in
terms of non-U.S. currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing
market rates at the end of the reporting period. Purchases and sales of
securities and income and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the
prevailing market rates on the dates of such transactions. The effects of
changes in non-U.S. currency exchange rates on investment securities and other
assets and liabilities are included with the net realized and unrealized gain
or loss on investment securities.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME - Security transactions are
accounted for as of the trade date. Realized gains and losses from securities
transactions are determined based on specific identified cost. In the event
securities are purchased on a delayed delivery or "when-issued" basis, the
series will instruct the custodian to segregate liquid assets sufficient to
meet its payment obligations in these transactions. Dividend income is
recognized on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized on an
accrual basis. Market discounts, premiums and original issue discounts on
securities purchased are amortized daily over the expected life of the
security.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - Dividends and distributions paid
to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
FORWARD CURRENCY CONTRACTS - The series may enter into forward currency
contracts, which represent agreements to exchange currencies of different
countries at specified future dates at specified rates. The series enters into
these contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange
rates arising from investments denominated in non-U.S. currencies. The series'
use of forward currency contracts involves market risk in excess of the amount
recognized in the statement of assets and liabilities. The contracts are
recorded in the statement of assets and liabilities at their net unrealized
value. The series records realized gains or losses at the time the forward
contract is closed or offset by a matching contract. The face or contract
amount in U.S. dollars reflects the total exposure the series has in that
particular contract. Risks may arise upon entering these contracts from the
potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and
from possible movements in non-U.S. exchange rates and securities values
underlying these instruments. Purchases and sales of forward currency exchange
contracts having the same settlement date and broker are offset and presented
net in the statement of assets and liabilities.
CLASS ALLOCATIONS - Income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses) and
realized and unrealized gains and losses are prorated between the classes based
on the relative net assets of each class. Distribution and any other
class-specific expenses, if any, are calculated daily at the class level based
on the relative daily net assets of each class and the specific expense rate
applicable to each class.
2. NON-U.S. INVESTMENTS
INVESTMENT RISK - Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers in certain
countries involve special investment risks. These risks may include, but are
not limited to, investment and repatriation restrictions, revaluation of
currencies, adverse political, social, and economic developments, government
involvement in the private sector, limited and less reliable investor
information, lack of liquidity, certain local tax law considerations, and
limited regulation of the securities markets.
TAXATION - Dividend and Interest income is recorded net of non-U.S. taxes paid.
3. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION - Each fund in the series intends to comply with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and intends to distribute all of its net taxable income
and net capital gains for the fiscal period. As a regulated investment company,
each fund in the series is not subject to income taxes if such distributions
are made. Required distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ
from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting
purposes. In addition, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may
differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains
are recorded by the funds.
The Bond Fund, the High-Yield Bond Fund, and the U.S. Government/AAA-Rated
Securities Fund had net capital loss carryforwards available at December 31,
1999 and at November 30, 1999. The Asset Allocation Fund had a net capital
loss carryforward available at December 31, 1999. These amounts may be used to
offset capital gains realized during subsequent years expiring December 31,
2003 through 2007, and thereby relieve the fund and its shareholders of any
federal income tax liability with respect to the capital gains that are so
offset. The funds will not make distributions from capital gains while a
capital loss carryforward remains.
Tax basis disclosures as of and for the one month ended December 31, 1999 and
as of and for the year ended November 30, 1999 are as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
American Variable Insurance Series:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the schedules of investment portfolios, and the related statements of
operations and of changes in net assets and the per-share data and ratios
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Global
Growth Fund, the Global Small Capitalization Fund, the Growth Fund, the
International Fund, the New World Fund, the Growth-Income Fund, the Asset
Allocation Fund, the Bond Fund, the High-Yield Bond Fund, the U.S.
Government/AAA-Rated Securities Fund and the Cash Management Fund (constituting
the American Variable Insurance Series, hereafter referred to as the "Series")
at December 31, 1999 and at November 30, 1999, the results of each of their
operations, the changes in each of their net assets, and the per-share data and
ratios for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. These financial statements
and per-share data and ratios (hereafter referred to as "financial statements")
are the responsibility of the Series' management; our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States, which require that we plan
and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities owned at December 31, 1999 and at November 30, 1999
by correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.
