          Fund Facts

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    Five Facts Every Shareholder Should Know About Oppenheimer
                    Time Fund

          ----------------------------------------------------------------------
          1         The Fund seeks capital appreciation from a well-diversified
                    portfolio of common stocks issued by successful medium-size
                    companies believed to possess strong growth potential.

          ----------------------------------------------------------------------
          2         The Fund provided shareholders with a total return at net
                    asset value of 15.98% for the 6 months ended December 31,
                    1993. For the 12-month period ended on that date, total
                    return at net asset value was 19.63%.1

          ----------------------------------------------------------------------
          3         The Fund ranks in the top 25% of all capital appreciation
                    funds tracked by Lipper in the latest 1-year period.2

          ----------------------------------------------------------------------
          4         The Fund's top five stock holdings at December 31, 1993,
                    were:3

                    Brinker International, Inc. The parent of one of the
                    nation's fastest growing casual dining chains.

                    Sensormatic Electronics Corp. A leading provider of retail
                    security and anti-theft devices.

                    Singer Co. N.V. (The). Manufacturers of sewing machines and
                    electronic products.

                    AutoZone, Inc. A retailer of automotive parts.

                    Blockbuster Entertainment Corp. Operates or licenses nearly
                    3,600 videocassette retail stores.

          ----------------------------------------------------------------------
          5         "The fundamentals for solid mid-cap company earnings growth
                    and market performance are still very much in place.
                    Investors are moving back to basics, with higher share
                    prices going to companies posting above-average sales and
                    earnings growth--the kind of companies in which we seek to
                    invest."

                                Portfolio Manager, Jay Tracey, December 31, 1993

In this report:

Answers to three timely questions you should ask your Fund's managers.

# How has the Fund's recent repositioning to focus on the stocks
of mid-size companies paid off?

# What do you view as the most promising investment opportunities in
the current economic environment?

          1. Based on the change in net asset value per share from 6/30/93 and
          12/31/92 to 12/31/93. The Fund's average annual total returns, after
          deducting the current maximum sales charge of 5.75%, for the 1-, 5-,
          and 10-year periods ended 12/31/93 were 12.75%, 13.66%, and 12.92%
          respectively. All performance figures assume reinvestment of dividends
          and capital gains distributions. The Fund's maximum sales charge rate
          was higher during a portion of the periods shown, and actual
          investment results will be different as a result of that change.

          2. Source of data: Lipper Analytical Services, an independent monitor
          of mutual funds, 12/31/93. The Lipper total return averages for the
          1-, 10-, and 15-year periods were for 129, 46, and 31 capital
          appreciation funds, respectively, including reinvestment of dividends
          and capital gains distributions. These averages are shown for
          comparative purposes only. Oppenheimer Time Fund is characterized by
          Lipper as a capital appreciation fund. Lipper performance does not
          take sales charges into consideration.

          3. The Fund's portfolio is subject to change.

          Past performance is not indicative of future results. An investment in
          the Fund will fluctuate in value so that an investor's shares, when
          redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

          Report to Shareholders



- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
          The recent repositioning of Oppenheimer Time Fund to focus on
          high-potential mid-size companies paid off in the six-month period
          ended December 31, 1993. The Fund's total return at net asset value
          for the 6 months ended on December 31 was 15.98%.4

                    After leading the market for much of 1993's third quarter,
          mid-size stocks paused in the fourth quarter to rest and retrench. As
          the U.S. economy continued to show signs of improvement, however, and
          investors realized that there are no signs of a significant upturn in
          either inflation or interest rates, mid-cap stocks resumed their
          upward march. In our view, the fundamentals are in place for continued
          strong performance.

                    Reflecting that view, our purchases and sales during the
          period were aimed at fine-tuning rather than reworking the portfolio.

                    We took profits in several stocks whose prices seemed to be
          stretched, such as International Game Technology, Blockbuster, and
          several financial services and technology issues. We used the proceeds
          from those sales to buy shares in companies whose earnings and stock
          prices can benefit from the strengthening economy.

                    Many of our purchases represented investments in companies
          positioned to benefit from upturns in consumer confidence and
          spending, such as Acclaim Entertainment, Bombay Company, Carnival
          Cruise Lines, and General Nutrition. Others, such as Elan, a
          manufacturer of innovative drug-delivery systems based in Ireland, and
          Cintas, a leader in consolidating the fragmented uniform-rental
          business--were investments in enterprises poised to benefit from broad
          industry changes.

                    Still other purchases, such as those we made in the
          financial services field, were aimed at capitalizing on Americans'
          growing concern with investing for retirement.

                    As we have noted before, however, your managers don't make
          broad investment-sector bets. Instead, they search out individual
          companies with strong market positions, seasoned managements, and
          above-average earnings growth potential.

                    In our last report, we said that it might take time for your
          Fund to begin to fully benefit from its focus on mid-size company
          stocks. That time, it seems, has come. The economy is strengthening.
          Interest rates and inflation should remain at low levels. And the
          market is getting back to basics, rewarding strong earnings
          performances with strong stock prices. All of those factors suggest
          that the outlook for the Fund should remain bright.

                    We appreciate the confidence you have placed in Oppenheimer
          Time Fund. We look forward to continuing to help you reach your
          investment goals in the future.

                         Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant           Oppenheimer Time Fund (the Fund) is registered under
   Accounting Policies   the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a
                         diversified, open-end management investment company.
                         The Fund's investment advisor is Oppenheimer Management
                         Corporation (the Manager). The following is a summary
                         of significant accounting policies consistently
                         followed by the Fund.

                         -------------------------------------------------------
                         Investment Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued
                         at 4:00 p.m. (New York time) 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 asked price or
                         the last sale price on the prior trading day. Long-term
                         debt securities are valued by a portfolio pricing
                         service approved by the Board of Trustees. Long-term
                         debt securities which cannot be valued by the approved
                         portfolio pricing service are valued by averaging the
                         mean between the bid and asked prices obtained from two
                         active market makers in such securities. Short-term
                         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. Securities for which market quotes
                         are not readily available are valued under procedures
                         established by the Board of Trustees to determine fair
                         value in good faith. An option is valued based upon the
                         last sales price on the principal exchange on which the
                         option is traded or, in the absence of any transactions
                         that day, the value is based upon the last sale on the
                         prior trading date if it is within the spread between
                         the closing bid and asked prices. If the last sale
                         price is outside the spread, the closing bid or asked
                         price closest to the last reported sale price is used.

                         -------------------------------------------------------
                         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. 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 Income 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 tax provision is required.

                         -------------------------------------------------------
                         Trustees' Fees and Expenses. The Fund has adopted a
                         nonfunded retirement plan for the Fund's independent
                         trustees. Benefits are based on years of service and
                         fees paid to each trustee during the years of service.
                         During the six months ended December 31, 1993, a
                         provision of $18,391 was made for the Fund's projected
                         benefit obligations, resulting in an accumulated
                         liability of $117,741 at December 31, 1993. No payments
                         have been made under the plan.

                         -------------------------------------------------------
                         Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends and
                         distributions to shareholders are recorded on the
                         ex-dividend date.

                         -------------------------------------------------------
                         Other. Investment transactions are accounted for on the
                         date the investments are purchased or sold (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 unrealized
                         appreciation and depreciation are determined on an
                         identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for
                         federal income tax purposes.
