Objective
Oppenheimer Global Securities Fund/VA, a series of Oppenheimer Variable Account
Funds, seeks long-term capital appreciation from growth companies worldwide.
================================================================================
Narrative by William Wilby, Portfolio Manager
Oppenheimer Global Securities Fund/VA performed well during the six months that
ended June 30, 2000. We maintain that the primary reason for this is our focus
on growth companies that we believe may benefit from one or more major,
worldwide trends: mass affluence, aging populations, new technologies and
restructuring. The Fund's cumulative total return for the period was 10.70%.(1)
Global markets experienced robust gains early in the six-month period,
retreated in the middle months, and advanced again as the period came to a
close. The initial charge was led by high gains among high-tech stocks between
January and March, at which point investors became concerned that the sector had
become overvalued too quickly. Investors thus shifted their focus to other
sectors; as a result, markets with large technology weight declined noticeably
through April. By the end of the period, once valuations of most price-inflated
technology stocks had returned to more normal levels, markets worldwide began to
rebound.
The major contributor to performance during this period was the success
of our disciplined, bottom-up approach. We continued to choose our investments
one company at a time, based on their fundamental strengths and their growth
prospects in light of our four long-term global themes. In short, we look for
stocks with the potential to deliver earnings growth and share-price growth in
any type of market. And we've found quite a few.
As an example of how a stock would fit into our four themes, our quest
for "new technology" recently led us to some new investments in Japan, where
there's a growing demand for wireless mobile data, such as voice-activated
Internet access. We see the potential for a "new economy" to emerge in Japan,
spurred on by the Internet and government policies designed to encourage
restructuring of Japanese companies. To take advantage of this trend and the
burgeoning demand for cellular equipment, we've invested in several component
manufacturers.
Porsche AG, the German automobile manufacturer, represents the mass
affluence portion of our theme-based investing. As segments of the population in
Europe and the United States age and become more affluent, Porsche has
benefited. Its brand is considered one of the most valuable in the world, and
people are willing and able to pay a premium for its cars.(2) As always, please
keep in mind that investing in foreign securities entails additional expenses
and risks, including foreign currency fluctuations.
We're confident about the outlook over the coming months for markets in
the United States, Europe, Japan and Latin America. While we expect the U.S.
stock market to cool down as the effects of tighter monetary policy take hold,
we're not overly concerned about finding compelling investments. We believe that
good, solid companies can be found in virtually any economic environment.
In Europe, the trend toward restructuring and enhancing shareholder value
that began with the formation of the European Monetary Union (EMU) is picking up
speed. In January, Vodaphone (UK) and Mannesmann (Germany) merged to create the
world's largest telecommunications firm. By March, the trend had trickled down
to the banking industry, where there are potential opportunities for mergers.
Because the stock market can be volatile, the Fund's performance may be subject
to substantial short-term changes.
1. Includes changes in net asset value per share and does not include the
charges associated with the separate account products which offer this Fund.
Such performance is not annualized and would have been lower if such charges
were taken into account. This performance was achieved in part during periods of
rapidly rising markets, and there is no assurance that the Fund will continue to
achieve those gains in the future.
2. The Fund's portfolio is subject to change.

================================================================================
As we mentioned earlier, Japan is slowly moving toward a technology-based
economy, and we expect this may increasingly replace the old heavy-manufacturing
economy that has been in decline there for some years.
We're less enthusiastic about the remainder of Asia, but see some very
encouraging developments in Latin America. For instance, in March, Standard &
Poor's Corporation raised Mexico's credit rating to investment grade, signaling
that perhaps the problems associated with the 1994 devaluation of the peso are
behind us.
Regardless of the economic prospects for individual markets, we still
believe there are investment opportunities globally. The Fund is well
diversified, which mitigates the risk of any single market or industry. Our
bottom-up, "stock-pickers" approach and our focus on long-term trends should
continue to lead us to solid, growth-oriented companies with strong competitive
positions and high demand for their products. We believe that these traits have
and will continue to make Oppenheimer Global Securities Fund/VA part of The
Right Way to Invest for those who seek global diversification and long-term
capital appreciation.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
================================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Oppenheimer Global Securities Fund/VA (the Fund) is a separate series of
Oppenheimer Variable Account Funds (the Trust), an open-end management
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended. The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital
appreciation by investing a substantial portion of assets in securities of
foreign issuers, "growth-type" companies, cyclical industries and special
situations that are considered to have appreciation possibilities. The Trust's
investment advisor is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager). The following is a
summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Securities Valuation. 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Repurchase Agreements. The Fund requires the custodian to take possession, to
have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System or to have
segregated within the custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for
repurchase agreements. The market value of the underlying securities is required
to be at least 102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. If the seller
of the agreement defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if the
seller enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the value of the
collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by loss carryovers to shareholders.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 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.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)(Continued)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
================================================================================
1. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
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.
================================================================================
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Fund has authorized an unlimited number of no par value shares of beneficial
interest. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows:

3. Purchases and Sales of Securities
The aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, other
than short-term obligations, for the six months ended June 30, 2000, were
$947,551,740 and $591,978,456, respectively.
================================================================================
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Management Fees. Management fees paid to the Manager were in accordance with the
investment advisory agreement with the Trust. The annual fees are 0.75% of the
first $200 million of average annual net assets, 0.72% of the next $200 million,
0.69% of the next $200 million, 0.66% of the next $200 million and 0.60% of
average annual net assets over $800 million. The Fund's management fee for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 was an annualized rate of 0.63%, before any
waiver by the Manager.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transfer Agent Fees. OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager,
is the transfer agent for the Fund and is responsible for maintaining the
shareholder registry and shareholder accounting records for the Fund. OFS
provides these services for cost.

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 June 30, 2000, the Fund had outstanding foreign currency contracts as
follows:
