HOW TO USE THIS REPORT
Some of our clients prefer a narrative account of their Advantus Series Fund
investments while other clients prefer full financial statements. This report is
designed to meet both preferences.
For a narrative account of each Portfolio's performance, investment strategies
and holdings by the Portfolio Manager, refer to the front section of the report.
Comprehensive investment holdings, market values and financial reports begin on
page 40.
Performance charts graphically compare each Portfolio's performance with select
investment indices and other benchmarks. This comparison provides you with more
information about your investments.
The charts are useful because they illustrate performance over the same time
frame and over a long period. There are limitations, however. An index may
reflect the performance of securities that the Portfolio may not hold. Also, the
index does not deduct investment advisory fees and other fund expenses--whereas
your Portfolio does. Individuals cannot buy even an unmanaged index fund without
incurring some charges and expenses.
This report is just one of several tools you can use to learn more about your
investment(s) in the Advantus Series Fund. Your Ascend Sales Representative, who
understands your personal financial situation, can best explain the features of
your investment and how they apply to your financial needs.

Letter from the President [PHOTO]
Dear Shareholder:
The U.S. has been enjoying an exceptional economic environment. Over the past
10 years, we have seen booming capital markets bolstered by robust economic
growth and low inflation. Since June 1999, six interest rate increases
engineered by the inflation-fighting Federal Reserve, have resulted in some
early signs of slowing the economy. Gross Domestic Product, a leading growth
indicator, is forecasted to slow to 4.2 percent from the first quarter's rapid
growth of 5.4 percent. Recent economic data (housing starts, auto sales and
unemployment) also indicate that the breakneck growth rate may be slowing.
The U.S. has also benefited from the expanding global economy. Large,
diversified companies are doing well in the current economic climate. As capital
spending remains strong, underlying support for technology grows. Companies
everywhere continue to build their technology base and infrastructure.
In the equity market, valuations do matter, as evidenced by the latest series of
market corrections early in the second quarter. Capitalism has a way of bringing
things back into balance. Market corrections tend to be quick and sharp.
Investors may need to adjust their expectations, as double-digit equity returns
may not be as commonplace as they have been over the last few years. Even though
recent corrections have reigned in many stocks--particularly in the Technology
sector--we feel that the stock market is still strong.
So far this year, U.S. Treasury securities have been the star performers within
the fixed income universe. U.S. Treasuries have benefited from a relatively low
inflationary environment, the strong fiscal situation in the U.S., and the
government's decision to buy back its longer-maturity debt. Corporate bonds have
been the weakest performing fixed income sector in 2000. An inverted yield
curve, several Fed tightening moves, increased event risk and equity market
volatility have all negatively impacted corporate bond performance.
Mortgage-backed securities have outperformed corporate bonds to date this year,
but have lagged U.S. Treasuries.
Our country's economic strength is very broad, and there are very few weak
spots. We believe the Fed has not finished tightening. We anticipate at least
one more increase in interest rates before November. Whenever we have a change
in interest rate direction, volatility and uncertainty surface. We have
witnessed volatility in the capital markets throughout the first half of 2000,
and we believe this will continue through the remainder of the year.
In this election year, we will witness the political posturing of both parties.
It is likely, however, that whoever the presidential election in November brings
to office, Americans will still enjoy a healthy, recession-free economy.
Thank you for your continued confidence and investment in the portfolios of the
Advantus Series Fund.
Sincerely,
/s/ William N. Westhoff

PORTFOLIO MANAGER
The Growth Portfolio seeks the long-term accumulation of capital, with current
income as a secondary objective. It invests primarily in common stocks and other
equity securities.
GROWTH PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
After significant gyrations in the market, with the Portfolio up as much as
14 percent and down as much as 12 percent, the Portfolio ended the first half up
2.58 percent* for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000. It is also good to
report that for 1 year the Fund has performed well with a return of 20 percent.
This compares to the Russell 1000 Growth Index** returns of 4.23 percent and
25.65 percent for the year-to-date and 1-year periods.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The market has been extremely volatile through the first half of 2000. The
NASDAQ carried the strength it exited 1999 with and ran up all time highs by
March, led mostly by technology issues and new economy stocks. Since then, the
market has assumed a decidedly cautious tone. Interest rate fears and high
energy costs have started to exert pressure on some sectors of the economy. We
have seen signs of weakness in retailing and auto sales, as well as some
indications that housing turnover is slowing.
Technology, Health Care and Energy have been, and continue to be, the
Portfolio's largest overweighted positions. Superior growth characteristics and
excellent earnings have caused us to continue to overweight these sectors.
Uninspiring growth characteristics for Financials and Consumer non-durables has
tilted the Portfolio away from these sectors of the market. In the first
quarter, our relative underweighting in the consumer non-durables was a
significant contributor to relative performance, but in the second quarter this
reversed as the market was more risk-averse and defensive. We believe the
characteristics of the sectors we have overweightings in will again bring
investors into these areas. Technology reversed in the second quarter from its
18 percent increase in the first quarter to up only 8 percent for the year.
Health Care and Energy have rallied throughout the year and we believe this will
continue.
With the backdrop of $30-a-barrel oil prices it is not surprising that Energy
has been the best performing sector year-to-date with a gain of 34 percent. This
was followed by Health Care, which was up 25 percent in the first half. The
Portfolio was positioned well in both of these sectors, led by Warner Lambert
gaining 59 percent in Healthcare and Baker-Hughes gaining 53 percent in the
Energy sector. Technology issues came through the first quarter with record
earnings and very few disappointments, but in the second quarter computer
services companies like Unisys and EDS were not able to meet expectations. This
has lead to a correction in the Technology sector although it has managed a
positive return year-to-date. Technology continues to be a heavy concentration
for the Portfolio and our positions in Redback Networks (+101 percent) and
Juniper Networks (+156 percent) have been significant contributors to
performance. Disappointments were BMC software and Computer Sciences.
OUTLOOK
We believe that the economy is headed for a soft landing with interest rates
nearing their highs. World and U.S. economic growth should continue at a healthy
pace, giving a lift to the market. As the economy continues to grow, we feel our
positions in Technology and Energy should perform well. After a period of
adjustment to slightly lower domestic growth, consumer cyclical stocks should be
poised to perform better. Therefore, we are looking to increase our positions in
some of the retailers who have been beaten down. We also believe that
Biotechnology has begun a secular growth phase that will last for a number of
years. As such, the Fund has good exposure to a number of the leading biotech
companies.

WAYNE R. SCHMIDT, CFA
PORTFOLIO MANAGER
The Bond Portfolio seeks as high a level of long-term total return as is
consistent with prudent investment risk. Preservation of capital is a secondary
objective. The Bond Portfolio invests in long-term, fixed income, high quality
debt instruments.
BOND PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The Advantus Bond Portfolio generated a total return of 2.91 percent for the
six-month period ended June 30, 2000. This compares to the Lehman
Government/Credit Index, which earned 4.16 percent for the same period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Interest rates were volatile during the six-month period as the market wrestled
with strong economic growth with hints of a potential slowdown, higher commodity
prices and overall concern for inflation, tight labor markets, and a proactive
Federal Reserve that raised the Federal Funds rate by 100 basis points
(1 percent). Despite the mixed news, the bond market managed to look beyond the
current events as short-term interest rates were pushed slightly higher and
long-term interest rates fell creating an inverted yield curve. This is a
situation where short-term interest rates are higher than long-term interest
rates. The yield on the two-year U.S. Treasury note rose 12 basis points
(.12 percent) to yield 6.36 percent, while the thirty-year bond declined 58
basis points (.58 percent) to yield just 5.90 percent at June 30, 2000.
Within the fixed income universe, the Government sector was the top performer as
Treasury and Agency securities returned 4.97 percent for the first six-months.
Mortgage-backed securities returned a respectable 3.67 percent while the
Corporate Credit sector lagged generating a 2.68 percent total return for the
quarter. These results are consistent with the backdrop of a tightening Federal
Reserve and a general lack of liquidity in the spread sectors. Spreads on
corporate bonds generally widen when the Federal Reserve is tightening monetary
policy in an effort to slow economic growth, that will eventually lead to lower
corporate profits. In this cycle, corporate bonds have also come under pressure
from a lack of liquidity as brokerage firms and hedge funds scaled back their
market making and trading activities.
The Portfolio's emphasis on corporate bonds negatively impacted returns in the
first half of 2000. While the Portfolio has been void of the major credit
casualties, spreads on corporate bonds that became targeted as potential
leveraged buyout candidates were driven significantly wider. Names in the
Portfolio like Crown Cork and Seal, Federal Mogul, Masco, and British Sky
Broadcasting underperformed the overall corporate bond market as their spreads
widened more than the average corporate credit. Owning these names in shorter
maturities helped mitigate the impact of their spread widening. This is
consistent with our portfolio strategy to own corporate credit in shorter
maturities and U.S. Treasury Bonds at the long end of the yield curve.
OUTLOOK
With credit spreads near their historical wide levels, we feel that corporate
bonds offer attractive yields to fixed income investors. The Portfolio will
continue to be constructed to emphasize yield through ownership of corporate
bonds in the short end (less than seven years to maturity) and U.S. Treasury
securities at the long end of the yield curve (thirty years to maturity). We
anticipate that corporate credit selection will play a key role, as credit
spreads have become extremely volatile. Avoiding the pitfalls will be more
important than picking winners in the corporate bond universe in the second half
of 2000. Long-term U.S. Treasury securities continue to offer intriguing value
as the government uses their surplus to buy back long-term Treasury debt and
will likely discontinue issuing thirty-year bonds in the near future. We expect
that the decreased supply of long Treasury debt coupled with investor need for
duration should keep prices moving higher in this sector.
We believe Interest rates will continue to drift lower as the economy enters a
more favorable part of the cycle for fixed income investors. The positives for
bonds include: a slowdown in economic growth from an unsustainable rate, a
leveling off of the strong employment situation, the Federal Reserve closer to
the end of this Fed Fund rate hike cycle, a pull back in the equity markets, and
a fiscal surplus in the U.S. The largest concern for bonds is inflation. Higher
wages or commodity prices could keep upward pressure on interest rates, but the
Federal Reserve stands ready to combat this to achieve their primary goal of
price stability. All things considered, bonds are in good shape at the current
interest rate levels. We feel that interest rates should trend lower when the
economic slowdown becomes more obvious and investors realize that the up-tick in
inflation is just temporary. We will continue to keep above average duration in
the Portfolio, add yield through credit on the short end, and continue to own
long-term U.S. Treasury securities.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER
The Money Market Portfolio seeks maximum current income to the extent consistent
with liquidity and the preservation of capital. It invests in short-term money
market instruments and other debt securities that mature within 397 days.
INVESTMENT IN THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO IS NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY
THE U.S. GOVERNMENT, AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE PORTFOLIO WILL BE
ABLE TO MAINTAIN A STABLE NET ASSET VALUE OF $1.00 PER SHARE. IT IS POSSIBLE TO
LOSE MONEY BY INVESTING IN THE PORTFOLIO.
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The Advantus Series Fund Money Market Portfolio earned a total return of
2.78 percent for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000. This compares with
the three-month U.S. Treasury Bill, which earned 2.92 percent for the same
period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Over the past six-months, short-term interest rates increased significantly,
long-term interest rates declined--after a significant rise--and the yield curve
inverted. The yield on the three-month U.S. Treasury Bill increased 55 basis
points (.55 percent) to yield 5.86 percent at June 30, 2000; while the yield on
the 30-year Treasury bond declined 58 basis points (.58 percent) to yield
5.90 percent at the end of the reporting period.
Ongoing strength in the U.S. economy, higher inflation and three more increases
in the Federal Funds rate (totaling 100 basis points (1 percent)) contributed to
the increase in short-term rates. In spite of the Federal Reserve's moves,
long-term Treasury rates declined over the reporting period--after having peaked
in mid-January. A strong fiscal position in the U.S., coupled with the
government's plan to repurchase long-term Treasury bonds as well as investors'
perception that the Fed will do what it takes to keep inflation under control,
provided the impetus for long-term Treasury rates to rally.
Short-term interest rates during the reporting period peaked at 6.21 percent on
May 16, the same day that the Federal Reserve increased the Federal Funds rate
by 50 basis points. After the rate hike, interest rates rallied as a series of
economic data signaled signs of a slowing economy. The signs led most investors
to correctly conclude that the Fed wouldn't increase rates at their meeting in
late June. Over the past six months, the total return of the three-month and
six-month U.S. Treasury Bills were 2.92 percent and 3.05 percent, respectively.
While the extreme volatility that investors have become accustomed to seemed to
take a breather over the last quarter of the reporting period, investors can be
certain that financial markets will continue to experience significant
volatility from time to time. Because of this, high-quality U.S. corporate
commercial paper should always be considered as a sound alternative for
investors seeking a high degree of safety and liquidity for a portion of their
portfolios. In addition, there are times--such as the present--when high-
quality commercial paper can also offer investors very attractive yields
relative to other fixed income alternatives. For example, in the second quarter,
yields offered by many large, high-quality issuers on 90-day commercial paper
exceeded 6.5 percent.
The Advantus Money Market Portfolio has approximately 95 percent of its assets
invested in high quality corporate commercial paper (i.e., commercial paper that
is rated A-1 or higher by Standard and Poor's and P-1 by Moody's). The
Portfolio's holdings are well diversified over a variety of stable industries
and do not include any holdings in the more volatile brokerage sector. Our goal
throughout this reporting period has been to maintain the average days to
maturity of the Portfolio in a range between 40 and 50 days.
OUTLOOK
Over the past year, the Fed has raised the Federal Funds Rate six times for a
total of 1.75 percent (i.e., to 6.50 percent from 4.75 percent). Despite its
moves, the U.S. economy still remains strong. Although some signs of slowing
have emerged, the market continues to wrestle with higher commodity prices,
higher inflation, tight labor markets and Federal Reserve policy direction. For
investors, an important question as we move into the second half of the year is
whether the Fed will raise rates further in the months ahead. Answering this
question correctly, which we strive to do through analysis and discussion,
should help to achieve better relative performance for our clients.
Our feeling is that interest rates should generally drift lower as the economy
enters a more favorable part of the cycle for fixed income investors. We see
several positives for the bond market: The economy is slowing from what has been
an unsustainable growth rate, the strong labor market situation is leveling off,
the Federal Reserve is nearing the end of the current rate hike cycle, equity
markets have pulled back, and there is a fiscal surplus in the U.S. The largest
concern for fixed income investors is inflation. Higher wages or commodity
prices could keep upward pressure on interest rates, but the Federal Reserve
stands poised to raise rates, if necessary, to achieve its goal of price
stability. All things considered, the fixed income market seems fairly priced at
current interest rate levels. As such, we expect that interest rates should
gradually trend lower when the economic slowdown becomes more obvious and
investors realize that the uptick in inflation is not permanent.

The Asset Allocation Portfolio seeks as high a level of long-term total rate of
return as is consistent with prudent investment risk. It invests in common
stocks and other equity securities, bonds and money market instruments. The mix
of investments is varied by the Portfolio's management as economic conditions
indicate.
ASSET ALLOCATION PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The Asset Allocation Portfolio generated a total return of 3.69 percent* for the
six-month period ended June 30, 2000. The Portfolio's benchmarks, the Russell
1000 Growth Index** returned 4.23 percent, and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate
Bond Index+ returned 3.98 percent for the same period. A blended index comprised
of 60 percent Russell 1000 Growth Index** and 40 percent Lehman Brothers
Aggregate Bond Index+ returned 4.30 percent for the same period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The stock market exhibited above average volatility during the first half of
2000. Through the middle of March, the NASDAQ and its technology stocks carried
the market averages to record levels. Since then, the stock market went through
a healthy, yet somewhat painful, correction. During the correction phase, the
market favored the more stable, or defensive stocks, while taking the air out of
the many speculative stocks. Interest rate fears, combined with higher energy
costs and a slowing economy, took the steam out of many sectors of the stock
market.
Interest rates were volatile during the six-month period as the market wrestled
with strong economic growth with hints of a potential slowdown, higher commodity
prices and overall concern for inflation, tight labor markets, and a proactive
Federal Reserve that raised the Federal Funds rate by 100 basis points
(1 percent). Despite the mixed news, the bond market managed to look beyond the
current events as short-term interest rates were pushed slightly higher and
long-term interest rates fell creating an inverted yield curve. This is a
situation where short-term interest rates are higher than long-term interest
rates. The yield on the two-year U.S. Treasury note rose 12 basis points
(.12 percent) to yield 6.36 percent, while the 30-year bond declined 58 basis
points (.58 percent) to yield just 5.90 percent at June 30, 2000.
The Energy sector led the stock market for the six-month period driven by
$30-a-barrel oil prices and skyrocketing gas prices. The Health Care sector also
posted strong results. The Portfolio was well positioned in both of these
sectors led by Warner Lambert in Health Care and Baker Hughes in the Energy
sector. REIT's in the Portfolio were also strong performers during the period
posting solid double digit gains. Technology issues came through the first
quarter with record earnings and very few disappointments, but in the second
quarter, computer services companies like Unisys and EDS (neither owned in the
Portfolio) were not able to meet expectations. This has led to a correction in
the Technology sector although it has managed a positive return year-to-date.
Technology continues to be a heavy concentration for the fund and our positions
in Redback Networks and Juniper Networks have been significant contributors to
performance.
Within the fixed income universe, the Government sector was the top performer as
Treasury and Agency securities returned 5 percent for the first six-months.
Mortgage-backed securities returned a respectable 3.7 percent while the
corporate credit sector lagged generating a 2.7 percent total return for the
quarter. These results are consistent with the backdrop of a tightening Federal
Reserve and a general lack of liquidity in the spread sectors. Spreads on
corporate bonds generally widen when the Federal Reserve is tightening monetary
policy in an effort to slow economic growth that eventually will lead to lower
corporate profits. In this cycle, corporate bonds have also come under pressure
from a lack of liquidity as brokerage firms and hedge funds scaled back their
market making and trading activities.
The strong shifts in the financial market provided selective asset allocation
opportunities during the past six months. Stocks were selectively sold during
March as the stock market moved to less attractive levels. Following the
consolidation phase of the market, stocks were added during April and May as
some of the successful growth stocks sold down to very attractive levels. For
the period ended stocks composed 71 percent, fixed income 27 percent, and cash 2
percent of the Portfolio.
OUTLOOK
Healthy corporate earnings growth, along with benign inflation, continue to
create a healthy fundamental backdrop for financial markets. Over the
short-term, we feel the stock market will continue to struggle with the slowing
rate of growth. For bonds, we expect that 2000 will likely be much better than
1999 as economic growth shows signs of slowing.
Over the long run, we anticipate that fundamental economic variables should
dominate the movements of financial markets. We believe the fundamentals are
very good and are likely to remain strong. As always, we will position the
Portfolio to significantly participate in strong market advances while
protecting your capital during periods of market decline.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER
The Mortgage Securities Portfolio seeks a high level of current income
consistent with prudent investment risk. The Mortgage Securities Portfolio will
invest primarily in mortgage-related securities.
MORTGAGE SECURITIES PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
For the six-month period ending June 30, 2000, the Advantus Series Fund Mortgage
Portfolio returned 4.10* percent. This compares favorably to our Peer group,
Lipper U.S. Mortgage universe of portfolios+, which earned 4.0 percent, and the
Portfolio's benchmark, the Lehman Mortgage Index**, with earned 3.67 percent.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The unlikely combination of accelerating growth and declining Treasury supply
united to create both opportunities and challenges for debt issuers and
investors alike. Treasury yields have been on a roller coaster ride while yield
premiums on spread products, such as mortgages and corporates, have gradually
climbed higher. For most of the period, as treasury yields fluctuated, the
spread on mortgages merely expanded and contracted to offset most of this
movement. In the end, absolute yields, and prices on mortgages, remained
relatively stable.
The power exerted by the shape of the yield curve and demand for government
guaranteed securities in determining performance was clearly evident as they
single handedly segregated winning and losing sectors. Intermediate and long
maturity treasuries were the primary beneficiaries as their yields fell by
.50 percent. In contrast, short maturity securities and spread products
experienced a very different environment as short interest rates floated higher
and spreads widened by .20 to .30 percent causing these sectors to lag. While
mortgages may not have been able to keep pace with the overall strength of the
treasury market, mortgages were the next best performing fixed income asset
class.
During this period, coupon selection did not make much of a difference, as the
market remained strapped into a low supply/benign pre-pay environment. The
decisions that proved to matter the most were broad allocation decisions between
Ginnie Mae's and Conventional (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac), 30-year and 15-year
maturity, non-agency prime and sub-prime residential and multi-tenant and single
tenant retail commercial securities.
- Ginnie Mae outperformed conventional mortgages as the demand for treasury
substitutes grew.
- 30-year outperformed 15-year as the yield curve was inverted, with longer
maturity rates falling lower than shorter maturity rates.
- Non-agency prime credit quality residential outperformed sub-prime sectors
as prime borrowers continue to benefit from healthy home appreciation and
strong balance sheets. Unfortunately, the environment for sub-prime
securities will remain challenged due to a history of aggressive
underwriting and under-capitalized issuers.
- Overall, commercial mortgage securities turned in an exceptional period on
the back of solid fundamentals and impressive liquidity. The only
exception being a handful of securities, which were backed by leases on
single tenant retail facilities.
Being underweighted in Ginnie Mae's limited our performance. However, being
overweighted in both 30-year securities and non-agency prime quality residential
and commercial mortgage securities more than made up this difference, by
enhancing relative performance while reducing the Portfolio's overall
volatility.
Looking forward, we think that Ginnie Mae's are fundamentally overvalued, and
for purely technical reasons are likely to remain overvalued. We will remain
underweighted in Ginnie Mae's. We still see upside opportunities in conventional
agency mortgage securities and other non-agency mortgage sectors. As long as
this relative value persists, we will maintain a strong ownership in these
sectors. It's important to note that we have been a very conservative and
limited participant in the sub-prime sectors of the mortgage market. The current
fundamentals do not lead us to anticipate a near-term change in this position.
We continue to advocate the virtues of broad diversifications and active
relative value management. This philosophy offers a consistent means to
strengthen the breadth and depth of our asset allocation decisions, as well as
create shareholder value throughout both interest rate and credit cycles.
Currently, the Portfolio's overall credit rating is AA and we are riding
duration 5 percent longer than the Index. Our sector weights are: 25 percent
agency pass throughs and CMO's, 49 percent non-agency pass throughs and CMO's,
20 percent Commercial pass throughs, 5 percent asset-backed securities and
1 percent cash. Finally, as this business cycle matures, we will continue to
seek opportunities to increase the overall quality of the Portfolio.
OUTLOOK
As the period came to a close, the economy was beginning to show tentative signs
of downshifting. With the bond market choosing to believe that the Fed is
closing in on the end of this tightening cycle, the bond market rallied and
interest rates ended the period toward the lower end of their recent trading
range.
Nevertheless, with labor markets remaining tight, equity prices back from
negative territory, and the inflation picture still being debated, we cannot
rule out the possibility of modestly tighter monetary policy in the next
six-months. Overall, we do not anticipate much change in the interest rate
environment through year-end, but we do expect yield curve movements and
treasury buying to remain an issue, but less of the driving force it has been.
In this environment, we feel that mortgages remain an attractive asset class,
capable of delivering competitive earnings. High gross yields approaching
8 percent, high credit quality, excellent liquidity and a general absence of
prepayment risk will continue to be the cornerstone of what makes mortgages one
of the most attractive fixed income asset classes over the next six-months. Once
it is clear that the Fed has reached it's objective and will no longer be
raising rates, the investor's appetite for risk should improve, driving risk
premiums over treasuries tighter which should benefit all spread sectors,
especially mortgages.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER
The Index 500 Portfolio seeks investment results that correspond generally to
the price and yield performance of the common stocks included in the Standard
and Poor's Corporation 500 Composite Stock Index (S&P 500).+ It is designed to
provide an economical and convenient means of maintaining a broad position in
the equity market as part of an overall investment strategy.
INDEX 500 PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
Increased volatility was the underlying theme for the first six-months of the
year. After monthly losses in January and February, the S&P Index provided
impressive gains in March. The pattern continued into the second quarter with
negative returns in April and May and a slight rebound in June. For the period
ended June 30, 2000 the Index 500 Portfolio generated a total return of -.61
percent.* This compares to the S&P 500 Index,** which returned a negative
.45 percent over the same period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The Federal Reserve increased rates in the first quarter and deferred to keep
rates flat during the June meeting. Attention continues to focus in on economic
data that could suggest a slow down in the economy. If the numbers suggest a
moderate slow down, the second half of 2000 is likely to finish strong.
Four of the 11 sectors posted positive returns during the six-month period ended
June 30, 2000. Health Care (23.7 percent), Utilities (15.4 percent), and Energy
(4.7 percent) rounded out the top performing sectors. Intel Corporation, Oracle
Corporation, Pfizer, Inc., Cisco Systems, Inc. and Nortel Networks Corporation
were the top five individual contributors. The Basic Materials sector performed
the worst with a -24.87 percent return. Microsoft Corporation, Inc., Qualcomm,
Procter & Gamble Company, AT&T Corporation and America Online, Inc. led the
negative individual contributors for the first six-months of the year.
OUTLOOK
We believe that the equity market should do reasonably well over the next few
months, and volatility will continue. We anticipate that P/E ratios++ should go
up as growth and interest rates stabilize and inflation gradually goes down.
Higher P/E ratios indicate that we may be moving back to a more normal time when
investors' expectations ran in the single-digit returns.
We see no recession in sight. Our country's economic strength is too broad, and
there are very few weak spots. Ultimately, we expect that the economy will slow,
and the threat of higher inflation will subside; the Fed will prevail. We
believe the Fed has not finished tightening and anticipate at least one more
increase in interest rates before November. Whenever we have a change in
interest rate direction, volatility and uncertainty surface. We have witnessed
volatility in the capital markets throughout the first half of 2000, and we
believe this will continue through the remainder of the year.

The Capital Appreciation Portfolio seeks growth of capital. Investments will be
made based upon their potential for capital appreciation. While Advantus Capital
Management, Inc. acts as investment adviser for the Portfolio, Credit Suisse
Asset Management provides investment advice to the Capital Appreciation
Portfolio under a subadvisory agreement.
CAPITAL APPRECIATION PORTFOLIO
Note: Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC assumed management of the Advantus
Series Fund Capital Appreciation Portfolio on May 1, 2000. Therefore, the
following discussion reflects the performance of the Advantus Capital
Appreciation Portfolio for the period during which we managed the portfolio as
well as our outlook for the large-cap sector as a whole. (Representative
holdings named below are in the Advantus Series Fund Capital Appreciation
Portfolio.)
PERFORMANCE
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, the Capital Appreciation Portfolio
returned 1.35 percent.* This compares with the S&P 500 Index,** which returned
-.45 percent, and the Russell 1000 Growth Index+, which returned 4.23 percent
for the same period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The U.S. stock market struggled in the second quarter beset by inflation and
interest rate worries, which especially weighed on technology and other growth
stocks. The Portfolio's performance reflected the difficult environment for
stocks and its continued emphasis on growth-oriented sectors of the market.
Recent volatility notwithstanding, we continue to believe that these sectors
offer the most compelling long-term appreciation potential.
The Portfolio was restructured when we began managing the Portfolio on May 1st
to reflect our own market outlook and style. The most dramatic sector reductions
were in the telecommunications and equipment and retail sectors, which, in many
cases, we believed had become fully valued. Accordingly, we made the decision to
realize profits in these two sectors. We reduced the telecommunications and
equipment sector from 21.99% to 15.18% and the retail sector from 9.31% to 2.36%
(from April 30th to June 30th, respectively). Within the telecommunications
equipment sector we pared the portfolio's exposure to Cisco Systems Inc. from
6.36% on April 30th to 3.00% on June 30th. In the retail sector we reduced our
allocation to Home Depot from 2.28% to 0.44% and completely sold the portfolio's
position in CVS Corp.
Conversely, we increased the portfolio's allocation to pharmaceuticals, energy
and banks and savings and loans. The pharmaceutical sector was increased from
4.87% of the portfolio's market value on April 30th to 13.40% on June 30th based
on our belief that this sector was reasonably valued and would perform well as
the overall economy began to slow. Within the sector we added positions in
Pfizer Inc. (3.73% as of June 30) and Pharmacia Corp. (2.69%).
The exposure to the energy sector was increased from 0.0% of the portfolio's
market value to 6.42% on June 30 as we expected the imbalance of demand versus
supply for natural gas and electric energy to increase the profit outlook for
companies within the sector. Two names that we added to the portfolio included
BP Amoco PLC (2.01% on June 30 and Exxon Mobil Corp. (1.46%).
Likewise, we increased the portfolio's allocation to the banks and savings and
loans sector from 0.0% to 5.06% on June 30th. We had been underweight here for
several quarters reflecting our concerns that rising interest rates would
restrain the group's earnings growth. Our decision to increase our exposure was
based on the attractive valuations we saw on specific financial stocks, given
the potential for a peak in the interest-rate cycle relatively soon. Our
emphasis here remained on companies with good capital management and effective
cost control. Two names that we added to the Advantus portfolio were Citigroup
(3.21% on June 30th) and Northern Trust (1.46%).
Finally, we maintained the portfolio's healthy exposure in the communications &
media sector (11.17%). Our positive outlook for the group's longer-term
prospects is based on an expanding Internet, particularly with respect to the
introduction of cable Internet pipelines into the home. In our view, companies
such as Liberty Media Group (2.49%) are well positioned to benefit from this
trend over the longer term.
OUTLOOK
Looking ahead to the next few months, we feel that uncertainty will no doubt
continue to haunt the market and spark occasional bouts of volatility. In this
context, we will continue to look for opportunities to "upgrade" the portfolio,
taking advantage of market volatility to purchase shares of high-quality,
industry-leading companies trading at what we deem to be reasonable valuations.
As ever, our focus will remain concentrated on identifying stocks we deem to
have the best long-term prospects.

TEMPLETON INVESTMENT COUNSEL
The International Stock Portfolio seeks long-term capital growth. The Portfolio
will invest primarily in common stocks of companies and governments outside the
United States. While Advantus Capital Management, Inc. acts as investment
adviser for the portfolio, Templeton Investment Counsel, Inc. provides
investment advice to the International Stock Portfolio under a subadvisory
agreement. Investment risk associated with international investing, in addition
to other risks, include currency fluctuation, political and economic
instability, and differences in accounting standards when investing in foreign
markets.
INTERNATIONAL STOCK PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The International Stock Portfolio returned 2.09 percent* during the first half
of 2000, compared with the MSCI EAFE Index** return of negative 4 percent.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
A "return to earnings" occurred in the first half of the year 2000, deflating
the dot.com frenzy that was seen in 1999. As more Internet stocks came into the
market, investors started to take a closer look at earnings generation
capability at some of these companies. Inflation fears in the U.S. in the early
part of the year resulted in the Federal Reserve again raising interest rates,
which shook growth stocks as a whole, including the technology-laden NASDAQ
index. The NASDAQ sell-off sent ripples throughout the globe, prompting a
sell-off in technology, media and telecommunications (TMT) stocks universally.
Given the persistence of the market's multi-year trend favoring growth and
technology, the performance of this period is encouraging given the very
favorable valuation characteristics of the fund. The portfolio is now trading at
just over half the valuation of the index benchmarks on a price-to-earnings and
price-to-cashflow basis. This discount is a wide margin by even our own
historical standards, but we remain convinced that while the Internet and new
technologies are very important developments, they have not repealed the laws of
earnings and cash flow generation.
Merger and Acquisition activity remained robust in the first half of the year,
and your Fund benefited from consolidation activity as several holdings in the
financial and energy sectors benefited from this trend and registered solid
double-digit gains. Nordic Baltic Holdings, now the largest bank in the Nordic
region, was formed through the merger of Merita Nordbanken and Unidanmark, while
Canadian oil company, Ranger Oil is being acquired by Canadian Natural Resource.
Individual stocks, rather than broad industry or geography weightings, accounted
for the portfolio's equity performance. Celltech, a British biotechnology
company, was among the best performers in the portfolio, up over 140 percent.
Celltech rose amidst general investor enthusiasm for biotech stocks accompanying
the exciting breakthroughs of the Human Genome Project. The stock hit our
valuation target and we reduced the position and what we consider to be an
excellent price.
Alcatel was another outstanding performer in the first half of the year, up over
50 percent. Investors began to the place more value on the French company's
optical networking capabilities and its leading position in broadband access
equipment. After an earnings disappointment in late 1998, the company's
management has proven its ability to unlock shareholder value though
cost-cutting and renewed dedication to profitable growth.
Nomura Securities was another stock that fueled the portfolio's performance,
generating over 40 percent in the first half of the year. Nomura is Japan's
leading stock brokerage company. We initiated a position in Nomura in 1998, when
Nomura was trading at a Price-to-Book ratio under two times, which made it quite
a bit cheaper than U.S. competitors like Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch. We
bought the stock because of the tremendous growth potential for managed assets
in Japan. This year that premise has begun to play out, with Japanese savers
moving assets out of the Postal Savings System and into managed equity
investments. By virtue of its commanding domestic market position, Nomura has
been able to gather a good percentage of this new money. We are comfortable with
our position and believe that Nomura is well placed to make further gains.
OUTLOOK
Over the last year, our underweight in the strongly performing Japanese market
generally hurt returns. However, your performance over the last six months has
been helped by this underweight, as tech and blue chips in Japan, which had led
the market, suffered greatly in this year's downdraft. We believe that our focus
in Japan on companies whose managements are intent on restructuring and
improving corporate profitability will ultimately be a winning strategy, and we
will continue to add such issues when our analysis uncovers them.
The first half of 2000 was an encouraging period for our investment style. For
most of the last three years, out focus on value has not helped our clients
achieve market-beating results because of the euphoric valuations accorded to
some of the "New Economy" stocks. We feel that the start of 2000 may signal a
shift, perhaps subtle, back toward a more rational, levelheaded assessment of
stocks in light of probable future earnings. If indeed such a shift is underway,
your portfolio should benefit. Our analysts believe that every stock in the
portfolio compares favorably with future earnings prospects, something that we
can not say for many of today's favorite stocks.

SAMMY OH
CREDIT SUISSE ASSET MANAGEMENT
The Small Company Growth Portfolio seeks long-term accumulation of capital. It
invests primarily in common stocks of small companies, defined in terms of
either market capitalization or gross revenues that are less than $1.5 billion.
While Advantus Capital Management, Inc. acts as Investment advisor for the
portfolio, Credit Suisse Management, LLC/Warburg Pincus provides investment
advice to the Small Company Growth Portfolio under a subadvisory agreement.
SMALL COMPANY GROWTH PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The Advantus Series Fund Small Company Growth Portfolio had a loss of 6.18
percent* for the three-months ended June 30 versus a drop of 7.37% for the
Russell 2000 Growth Index.** Performance was hindered by the difficult backdrop
for small-cap stocks and by weakness in specific issues, such as certain issues
of the portfolio's communications and software holdings. On a positive note,
stocks that helped the portfolio included its health-care and oil-services
holdings.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Following a buoyant 1999 and a positive, though volatile, first quarter,
small-capitalization stocks declined sharply over the April-through-June span,
as identified by the fall of the Russell 2000 Growth Index. The group's retreat
largely reflected inflation and interest-rate worries. Despite a series of rate
increases by the Federal Reserve over the past year, the economy remained
strong, leaving the door open to further monetary "tightening." The uncertainty
particularly hampered technology stocks, whose valuations compared to those on
non-technology stocks, had become quite lofty.
We made few noteworthy changes to the portfolio in terms of sector/industry
allocation. We maintained a primary emphasis on technology companies (broadly
defined, these accounted for nearly half of the portfolio's assets at the close
of the period), reflecting the considerable opportunity that we continued to
see. However, there were some adjustments worthy of mention. We pared our
exposure to the computer and communications sectors, and raised our weighting in
the electronics area, where we generally saw better value. Electronics stocks we
added during the quarter included Emcore Corp (0.91% as of June 30), a company
which designs and develops compound semiconductor materials and process
technology.
Outside of technology, our noteworthy moves included increasing our exposure to
the health care sector (9.54% of the portfolio as of June 30), adding stocks
such as Caremark RX (0.74%), a pharmacy-benefits manager, and Universal Health
Services (2.04%), an owner and operator of acute-care facilities. Both
companies, in our view, should benefit from a more favorable regulatory backdrop
going forward. Elsewhere of note, we maintained a modest weighting in the
oil-services area (7.57% on June 30). We added a small exposure to the
financial-services sector (1.33%), though we continue to monitor financial
companies for compelling buying opportunities.
OUTLOOK
The question now facing investors is whether small-cap stocks can indeed regain
their footing and mount a long-term rally. Notwithstanding the possibility that
these stocks will tread water or even decline over the near term, given ongoing
rate concerns. We have a favorable outlook on their long-term prospects. Our
optimism is based in part on the potential for the Fed to successfully engineer
a "soft landing," allowing for modest economic growth, low inflation and a
stabilization of interest rates. Historically, such an environment has supported
stocks of small, rapidly-growing companies, both in absolute terms and compared
to large-cap stocks' performance.
Another factor we feel that stands to benefit small-cap stocks is the ongoing
acquisition of small companies by larger ones. While such activity declined
somewhat during the second quarter, it remains well above levels seen a few
years ago, and we believe the trend will accelerate going forward as the
interest-rate picture comes more into focus. This stands to benefit stocks of
numerous innovative, niche-type small companies, targeted by large enterprises
seeking to effectively execute their business models.
Other grounds for optimism regarding small-cap stocks as an asset class include
the likelihood of a continued supportive tax backdrop. We expect that marginal
tax rates should remain relatively low, and could be headed lower, given
ballooning budget surpluses and the presence of rate reduction as a political
issue this year. All else being equal, this stands to encourage investment in
market segments that, while riskier over short periods, offer potentially
significant long-term growth of capital.
Buttressing the case for small-cap stocks is the group's valuations. In the wake
of recent turmoil, we feel that valuations on small caps vs. those on large caps
are even more compelling than they were at the start of the quarter. Combined
with the forces noted above, and provided inflation remains at bay and rates do
indeed stabilize, this stands to fuel a revival in investor enthusiasm for
small-cap stocks. That said, we believe that careful stock selection will remain
paramount, and our efforts will continue to be concentrated on identifying
stocks with the brightest prospects.

The Maturing Government Bond 2002, 2006 and 2010 Portfolios seek as high of an
investment return as is consistent with prudent investment risk. The Portfolios
invest primarily in U.S. Government and Agencies zero coupon fixed income
securities with maturities near the 2002, 2006 and 2010 liquidation dates of
each Portfolio.

PERFORMANCE
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, the Maturing Government Bond
Portfolio generated the following returns:

</TABLE>
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Our investment activities continue to focus on tracking performance of the
respective indices. Over the long run, by selectively using Government Agency
securities in concert with U.S. Treasury securities, the Portfolios each
benefited from enhanced diversification and also from the receipt of additional
income (over that of U.S. Treasury securities).
As time passes, the duration of each portfolio continues to roll forward toward
its respective maturity. The effective duration of each portfolio is as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Maturing Government Bond 2002 Portfolio................ 1.99 years
Maturing Government Bond 2006 Portfolio................ 5.95 years
Maturing Government Bond 2010 Portfolio................ 9.82 years
</TABLE>
OUTLOOK
The secular bull market in interest rates that has graced the capital markets
since the early 1980s, has most likely reached the mature phase in its cycle.
Going forward, we expect that returns will likely remain in the single digits.
More moderate returns should prevail as income, and not capital gains, drives
returns in the fixed income market.

MATTHEW T. NORRIS, CFA
PORTFOLIO MANAGER
The Value Stock Portfolio seeks long-term accumulation of capital. The Portfolio
invests primarily in equity securities of companies, which, in the opinion of
the Adviser, have market values, which appear low relative to their underlying
value or future growth potential.
VALUE STOCK PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW
PERFORMANCE
The first half of 2000 left the Russell 1000 Value index** in negative territory
year-to-date. The Value Stock Portfolio was no exception, with a return of -5.89
percent* compared to the index return of -4.24 percent. While negative results
are disappointing, they are also an occasional fact of life in equity investing.
On the upside, we feel the Portfolio is superbly positioned to participate in
the next upward leg of the market.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
On the surface, the stock market seemed relatively calm for the period, but
there was considerable action "under the waves". The Technology sector, which
rallied through February, slid in March and April, then stabilized and made a
small rebound by the end of June. Energy and Health Care were generally strong,
while telecommunication stocks were weak. The continued strength in oil prices
helped drillers and refiners while hurting industries that depend on fuel, such
as trucking and airlines. Interest rates nudged back down by the end of June,
after rising half-a-percent from April to May. All eyes are still on the Federal
Reserve Board to see if further rate increases are upcoming. We feel that we are
close to the end of rate increases. Many economic data points are starting to
show a slowdown.
The Portfolio's best performance came from Health Care, Energy and Utility. In
Health Care, our holdings of major pharmaceutical stocks performed nicely. The
overweight in Energy continues to serve the Portfolio well, as oil prices that
are anywhere over $25-a-barrel creates excess earnings for the industry.
Long-term holdings in the Utility area, including companies such as Enron, AES
Corporation and Exelon Energy (the combination of Peco and Unicom), performed
nicely. The Basic Materials sector was not a bright spot, as the Portfolio's
holdings performed in line with a sector that was down considerably. Financial
stocks were underweighted, which although volatile, proved to be a correct move.
Last quarter, we wrote about our dislike of the competitive position of regional
or smaller banks. The Portfolio has avoided those while searching hard for
alternative ideas. Two recent additions in this area were Capital One Financial,
a credit card company; and Nationwide Financial Services, which is strong in the
401(k) market. Both of these names have performed well.
In terms of relative performance, the Portfolio excelled in the Communications
area. This sector was one of the worst performing of the period, and the
Portfolio had an overweighted position in the sector. With all that against us,
superior stock selection led to the sector adding relative performance for the
time period. Holdings in SBC Communications, Western Wireless and US West (now
Qwest) did well, while the Portfolio sold AT&T just in time to avoid a plunge in
share price.
Two sectors that did not do well on a relative basis were Technology and
Consumer Staples. The overweight in Technology hurt as the Portfolio bought
technology names on the first price decline, only to see the decline go deeper
than we had expected. There are some excellent technology companies now selling
for what we feel are cheap prices. The Portfolio made those investments for the
long-term, and we plan to stick with them. The Consumer Staples sector was a
strong performer, and the Portfolio had a large position in Pepsico, which was
sold after it appreciated nearly 40 percent. Other than that, we held an
underweight in the sector, which hurt relative performance.
OUTLOOK
The Portfolio continues to hold overweights in Communications, Energy and
Technology sectors, where we find excellent companies selling at great prices.
The Portfolio is also still underweight in certain areas of the financial
sector. Although many of these company's stock prices are inexpensive, we feel
they correctly reflect weak fundamentals. An inexpensive stock does not make up
for a poor company. We feel these sector weightings, combined with quality
individual stock selection, will result in attractive performance.

The Small Company Value Portfolio seeks the long-term accumulation of capital.
It invests primarily in the equity securities of small companies, defined in
terms of market capitalization and which appear to have market values that are
low relative to their underlying value or future earnings and growth potential.
Investments in smaller company and micro-cap stocks generally carry a higher
level of volatility and risk over the short term. Refer to the Portfolio's
prospectus for specific information about risks associated with the investment,
as well as charges and expenses.
SMALL COMPANY VALUE PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The Small Company Value Portfolio returned 6.28 percent* for the six month
period ended June 30, 2000. This compares with the Portfolio's benchmark, The
Russell 2000 Value Index,** which returned 5.84 percent over the same period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The first half of 2000 has seen modest stock market returns for large stocks
(+0.8 percent for the Russell 1000 Index), but somewhat better results for small
stocks (+3.0 percent for the Russell 2000 Index**). Among style sectors, small
capitalization value was the place to be during the first half, with the
Russell 2000 Value Index** returning a robust 5.85 percent. In fact, this was
the only style sector that provided positive returns in both the first and
second quarters. During the first half, small-cap investors experienced huge
swings in relative performance between growth and value stocks; in four of the
six months, the divergence was 10 percent or more. This is just one more sign of
the high levels of volatility seen throughout the stock market over the last 12
to 18 months. Within the small-cap value stocks, the economic sectors showing
the strongest performance were energy, technology, and healthcare. In the case
of technology, however, all of this performance came in the first quarter.
Stock selection, rather than economic sector selection, has driven the
Portfolio's performance for the first half of the year, especially in the second
quarter. However, sector selection does play a role in performance. Our
bottom-up search for attractive stocks has led us away from the technology
sector in recent months; in the second quarter, this proved to be a good sector
to avoid. Despite de-emphasizing the technology sector, our stock selections in
this area performed extremely well. Investments in consumer discretionary and
materials & processing also contributed positively to performance.
OUTLOOK
Small-capitalization stocks, particularly small-capitalization value stocks,
remain attractively valued.
The overall market environment remains quite volatile; something that has been
quite pronounced since the second half of 1999. We feel that this volatility is
likely to continue and only increases the critical need for investors to have
strong conviction in their portfolio holdings. This plays to our strengths; we
must have confidence in a firm, its management, and its outlook in order for its
stock to become a significant holding in the Portfolio.
The economy remains strong and we feel that the Federal Reserve seems to have
completed most of its current round of interest rate hikes. However, if the
Federal Reserve is indeed near the end of this current cycle of rising interest
rates, it is only because the economy is showing signs of slowing. This is a
double-edged sword for small-cap stocks, especially small-cap value stocks. Any
slacking in the pace of rising interest rates is helpful, but an environment of
slower economic growth can be difficult for many firms. This environment only
increases the importance of remaining true to our investment strategy: invest in
stocks with good valuations, quality management, and strong opportunities to
grow their businesses and provide strong returns to investors.

The Global Bond Portfolio seeks to maximize current income consistent with
protection of principal. The Portfolio pursues its objective by investing
primarily in debt securities issued by issuers located anywhere in the world.
Prior to May 1, 1998, this Portfolio was known as the International Bond
Portfolio. While Advantus Capital Management, Inc. acts as the investment
adviser for the Portfolio, Julius Baer Investment Management Inc. provides
investment advice to the Global Bond Portfolio under a subadvisory agreement.
Investment risks associated with international investing in addition to other
risks, include currency fluctuations, political and economic instability, and
differences in accounting standards when investing in foreign markets.
GLOBAL BOND PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The Global Bond Portfolio posted a total return of -1.48* percent for the
six-month period ended June 30, 2000. This compares to the Salomon Brothers
World Government Bond Index** return of 0.03 percent for the same period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Growth around the world was generally stronger than expected early in the year,
especially in the U.S. and U.K. Because of this, Central Banks in the U.S.,
U.K., Canada, Sweden, Australia, New Zealand and the Euro-zone raised interest
rates. This pattern repeated itself in the second quarter of 2000. Inflation
remained at attractive levels, although higher oil and commodity prices began to
creep into inflation rates.
Global: Exposure to the dollar bloc markets of Canada, Australia and New Zealand
helped performance in the Portfolio, as did an underweight position in the U.K.
and Japan. Increasing duration in the early part of the year helped performance,
and switching to medium maturity positions in Europe later in the second quarter
also helped as the short end of the yield curve underperformed on the back of
higher short-term interest rates.
However, the strength of the U.S. dollar during the first six months of the year
pushed most markets into negative territory as measured in U.S. dollars.
Exposure to commodity currencies and an underweight yen position in the
Portfolio detracted from performance during the quarter. Credit and emerging
markets exposures were maintained, although at low historic levels.
U.S.: In the first half of the year in the U.S. fixed income market, short-term
interest rates were pushed higher as the Federal Reserve raised the Fed Funds
rate on three occasions for a total of 100 basis points (1 percent). Long-term
interest rates fell creating an inverted yield curve. The yield on the two year
U.S. Treasury note rose 12 basis points (0.12 percent) to 6.36 percent, while
the thirty year bond declined 58 basis points (0.58 percent) to yield 5.90
percent at June 30, 2000.
Within the fixed income universe, the government sector was the top performer as
Treasury and Agency securities returned 4.97 percent for the first six-months.
Mortgage-backed securities returned a respectable 3.67 percent while the
corporate credit sector lagged generating a 2.68 percent total return for the
quarter. Our portfolio strategy for the U.S. portion is to own mortgage backed
securities and corporate credit in shorter maturities and U.S. Treasury Bonds at
the long end of the yield curve.
OUTLOOK
Global: Bonds have experienced a good run, especially at the end of the second
quarter 2000, and we maintain our positive view over the medium term. U.S.
growth data has been softer, and we should see the end of the tightening cycle.
Although oil prices have risen recently, we do not see this as a serious
inflation threat. In Europe, firmer growth figures have us cautious about the
bond markets. However, strong support from the U.S. is expected and with
continued good news in terms of falling bond supply, yields are expected to
drift lower.
We feel that the outlook for the Euro remains positive on the back of its recent
strength against the US dollar and other major currencies. The yen appears mired
in a trading range, providing little in the way of value at present levels.
U.S.: With credit spreads near their historical wide levels, we expect that
corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities offer attractive yields to fixed
income investors. The Portfolio will continue to be constructed to emphasize
yield through ownership of spread product in the short end of the yield curve
(less than seven years to maturity) and U.S. Treasury securities at the long end
of the yield curve (thirty years to maturity). We anticipate that interest rates
should continue to drift lower as the economy enters a more favorable part of
the cycle for fixed income investors. We feel that the positives for bonds
include: a slowdown in economic growth from an unsustainable rate, a leveling
off of the strong employment situation, the Federal Reserve closer to the end of
this Fed Fund rate hike cycle, a pull back in the equity markets, and a fiscal
surplus in the U.S. The largest concern for bonds is inflation. Higher wages or
commodity prices could keep upward pressure on interest rates but the Federal
Reserve stands ready to combat this to achieve their primary goal of price
stability.

The Index 400 Mid-Cap Portfolio seeks to provide investment results generally
corresponding to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly traded
common stocks that comprise the Standard & Poor's 400 MidCap Index (S&P 400).+
It is designed to provide an economical and convenient means of maintaining a
diversified portfolio in this equity security area as part of an over-all
investment strategy.
INDEX 400 MID-CAP PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The Index 400 Mid-Cap Portfolio generated a total return of 8.16 percent* for
the six-month period ended June 30, 2000. This compares to the S&P 400 Mid-Cap
Index** return of 8.98 percent for the same period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Five of the 11 sectors posted double-digit gains during the six-month period
ended June 30, 2000. The best returns came from Energy (46.6 percent), Health
Care (30 percent) and Utilities (19.7 percent) rounding out the top three.
Veritas Software, Siebel Systems, Altera Corporation, Linear Technology and
Sepracor Inc. provided the top five individual contributions. The Communication
Services sector performed the worst with a negative 19.2 percent return. Legato
Systems, Intuit, E*Trade Group, Checkfree Holdings and Broadwing led the
negative contributors for the first six-months of the year.
OUTLOOK
We anticipate that the equity market should do reasonably well over the next few
months, and volatility will continue. P/E ratios++ should go up as growth and
interest rates stabilize and inflation gradually goes down. Higher P/E ratios
indicate that we may be moving back to a more normal time when investors'
expectations ran in the single-digit returns.
We see no recession in sight. Our country's economic strength is too broad, and
there are very few weak spots. Ultimately, we expect that the economy will slow,
and the threat of higher inflation will subside; the Fed will prevail. We
believe the Fed has not finished tightening and anticipate at least one more
increase in interest rates before November. Whenever we have a change in
interest rate direction, volatility and uncertainty surface. We have witnessed
volatility in the capital markets throughout the first half of 2000, and we
believe this will continue through the remainder of the year.

The Macro-Cap Value Portfolio seeks to provide high total return. It pursues
this objective by investing in equity securities that the sub-adviser believes,
through the use of dividend discount models, to be undervalued relative to their
long-term earnings power, creating a diversified portfolio of equity securities
which typically will have a price/earnings ratio and price to book ratio that
reflects a value orientation. While Advantus Capital Management, Inc. acts as
investment advisor for the Portfolio, J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.
provides investment advice to the Macro-Cap Value Portfolio under a subadvisory
agreement.
MACRO-CAP VALUE PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
The total return for the Advantus Macro Cap-Value portfolio for the semi-annual
period ending June 30, 2000 was -1.56* percent versus the S&P 500 Index's**
return of -0.45 percent and the Lipper VA Growth and Income+ Average's return of
-1.13 percent.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
The U.S. Equity market cycled erratically during the first six-months of the
year between growth stocks and value stocks based on the emerging economic data.
Weak data led to powerful rallies in technology and other growth stocks. Data
reflecting a strong economy caused a surge in lower priced value stocks. While
value stocks outperformed dramatically at the beginning of the period, growth
came back strong in June to lead the end of the second quarter (Russell 1000
Growth -2.7 percent vs. Russell 1000 Value -4.69 percent for the quarter ending
June 30, 2000). The market's reaction to the data flow is based entirely on the
impact the economy has on interest rates. The U.S. Federal Reserve raised rates
several times in the first half of the year and continues to monitor the
situation. Higher rates are just beginning to slow the economy which will start
to impact corporate earnings. Any disappointment in earnings at the company
level are being penalized heavily across all sectors. We believe that the second
quarter is evidence that the market is transitioning from the strong momentum
focus it had in 1999, to a more balanced environment.
The Fund's performance was positively impacted by stock selection during the
time period as good decisions within the hardware and semi-conductor sectors
added to the portfolio's performance. However, the industrial cyclical and
finance sectors were among the worst performers during the first half of the
year. The slowdown of the U.S. economy has led several companies to pre-announce
second quarter earnings below expectations, and has started to negatively impact
share prices, with the financial sector taking the worst hit, down 15 percent
for June. In Industrial cyclicals, ROHM & HAAS and HONEYWELL had second quarter
earnings disappointments, which negatively impacted the portfolio's overall
performance.
Overall, the pharmaceuticals and capital markets sectors moved ahead as
investors continued their rotation out of "new economy" stocks. As a
consequence, the software and services, telecommunications and technology
sectors fell. While the pharmaceuticals sector posted a positive return for the
six-month period, and capital markets also contributed to the overall
performance of the portfolio, holdings in such technology names as MICROSOFT
pulled down performance. The company was roiled with detailed announcements of
Judge Jackson's ruling against it in the lengthy anti-trust suit. Individual
security selection contributed to the portfolio's overall performance across the
first two quarters as overweight stocks such as INTEL posted positive total
returns for the six-months ending June 30, 2000.
OUTLOOK
Going forward, the strategy for the portfolio remains unchanged. We continue to
be fully invested and largely sector neutral. Until the U.S. boom subsides and
Fed tightening stops, we anticipate that liquidity will continue to be drained
from the financial system. Rising rates are expected to disproportionately
impact prices of more speculative equity shares. We saw hints of this change in
leadership toward the end of the first quarter, and expect further, albeit less
dramatic, confirmation of this shift as the year unfolds. We predict that the
Fed may tighten policy again in the second half of the year, but it appears that
the economy will continue to slow a little as evidenced by the cooling of the
overheated rate of late 1999 and early 2000.

The Micro-Cap Growth Portfolio seeks long-term capital appreciation. It pursues
this objective by investing primarily in equity securities of smaller companies
which the sub-adviser believes are in an early stage or transitional point in
their development and have demonstrated or have the potential for above average
revenue growth. It will invest primarily in common stocks and stock equivalents
of micro-cap companies. While Advantus Capital Management, Inc. acts as
investment advisor for the Portfolio, Wall Street Associates provides investment
advice to the Micro-Cap Growth Portfolio under a subadvisory agreement.
MICRO-CAP GROWTH PORTFOLIO
PERFORMANCE
For the six month period ended June 30, 2000, the Micro-Cap Growth Portfolio
returned .59 percent.* The portfolio trailed both the Russell 2000 Index and the
Russell 2000 Growth Index,** which returned 2.47 percent and 1.23 percent,
respectively.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Fears of additional interest rate increases and valuation concerns caused
investors to take profits in April and May, putting downward pressure on smaller
capitalization growth stocks. Many of the sectors that drove performance in the
first quarter (particularly technology) suffered significant declines. In June,
inflation fears eased as inflation friendly economic data was released.
Small-cap growth stocks rebounded sharply, but could not make up the ground that
was lost in April and May.
During the second quarter investments in the health care sector, buoyed by the
strength of biotechnology companies and the recent completion of the map of the
human genome, produced the largest contribution to portfolio performance. Health
Care was the best performing sector for the benchmark and the portfolio had a
greater than market allocation to this group. Anesta Corporation and Titan
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. added substantially to the portfolio's return.
Investments in the Energy sector also produced strong results, driven by
increased demand for oil and gas and a tight supply for both. The portfolio was
significantly overweighted in energy stocks, which earned double-digit returns.
Cross Timbers Oil Company and Horizon Offshore, Inc. were particularly
rewarding.
By contrast, the portfolio's technology exposure reduced performance as the
sector posted negative double-digit returns. Consumer discretionary stocks were
also disappointing, although the portfolio was underweighted in this area
relative to the benchmark.
OUTLOOK
Our outlook for small-cap growth stocks is optimistic. We anticipate that
investments in the high growth sectors of the market will outperform over the
remainder of the year. As such, we have positioned the Portfolio to be fully
invested in those areas that we believe offer the greatest potential for growth.
We currently have a market weighting in the Technology sector, which we believe
will continue to rebound from the April/May correction. We have actively
overweighted the Health Care and Energy sectors, which we believe will
outperform over the remainder of the year. We have a lower than market exposure
to the consumer discretionary sector, reflecting our view that retail sales will
not be exceptionally strong in the coming months. However, we may increase our
exposure to this group if fundamentals improve.

for the six-month period ended June 30, 2000. This return reflects a change in
market sentiment for real estate companies due to the recognition of the
sector's solid real estate fundamentals, discounted valuations, and strong
current income available through real estate investment trusts, and the
continued strength in the economy. The Portfolio's performance compares to the
Wilshire Associates Real Estate Securities Index (WARESI),** the Portfolio's
benchmark index, which returned 15.21 percent for the same period.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
Set in front of a background of tremendous volatility within the broader equity
markets, real estate securities fared well in the first half of 2000 as
investors searched for companies with more predictable cashflows and discounted
valuations as a "safe haven". As a group, real estate companies saw their
earnings growth increase, stopping a two-year decline in the growth rate. This
turn allowed multiples to expand for the sector. One of the factors driving the
rebound was that the real estate markets have tempered the urge to overbuild in
an economic expansion and the markets have generally remained in solid supply
and demand equilibrium. This balance has driven growth in rents for the
Portfolio of buildings within the real estate companies. Strong fundamentals and
discounted valuations within the sector provided fertile ground for strong
returns for the first half of 2000.
Sectors providing the best performance to the Portfolio were hotels
(c-corporations +40 percent and hotel REITs +22 percent) and industrial
companies (+21 percent). Due to a combination of the market recognizing the
strength in fundamentals and discounts in valuation, hotels have rebounded from
recent weak times. Industrial companies benefited from multiple expansion,
reflecting the strength of the rental growth of these companies. The Portfolio
was hurt by its investments in building materials companies, real estate service
companies, and the weak performance in the self-storage sector.
Best performing stocks were Manugistics Group--up 44 percent, Starwood Hotels &
Resorts Worldwide--40 percent and Meristar Hospitality--up 34 percent. The
selloff in real estate technology companies hurt the performance of the
Portfolio, however, our exposure to those names was limited in scope.
Additionally, event driven issues at JDN Realty (down 32 percent) and exposure
to interest rates at US Restaurants (down 32 percent) negatively impacted
results. We continue to be underweight in retail stocks due to our concern about
the consumer in a slowing economy. However, the retail stocks held in the
Portfolio in the first half of 2000 were up 20 percent versus the retail sector
for the index being up 9 percent. We continue to feel that our abilities in
selecting stocks will be rewarded in the market.
OUTLOOK
The sector's strong fundamentals remain in place, and are poised for continued
strength in the future. We will continue to monitor the economy, keeping an eye
on inflation and hoping the economy experiences a "soft landing." We expect that
the real estate markets should continue to show strength if the economy
continues to grow at a more moderate pace, and the pace of the new supply of
real estate continues its reduction.
Because we expect strong funds flow to the sector due to strong year-to-date
performance, we are increasing our exposure to the blue chip names in the group
to take advantage of the expected new capital entering the group. Additionally,
we are increasing our exposure to hotels as we expect to see higher revenues
being reported in this undervalued sector. Overall, we expect to see a more
steady return performance going forward. We do not see any further multiple
expansion beyond what has already occurred as the correction has taken its
course. However, market psychology may push multiples up a bit further.
Additionally, we feel that multiple contraction for these companies should not
occur as the market looks positively on the favorable supply/demand
characteristics and predictability of the cashflow. We anticipate that total
returns should more closely reflect the growth rates of these companies
(typically 6-8 percent) plus the dividend (typically 5-7 percent).

*Historical performance is not an indication of future performance. Investment
returns on principal values will fluctuate so that shares upon redemption may be
worth more or less than their original cost. Performance figures of the Fund do
not reflect charges pursuant to the terms of the variable life insurance
policies and variable annuity contracts funded by separate accounts that invest
in the Fund's shares. When such charges are deducted, actual investment
performance in a variable policy or contract will be lower.
**The Wilshire Associates Real Estate Securities Index is a market
capitalization-weighted index of equity securities whose primary business is
equity ownership of commercial real estate (REITS).

ADVANTUS SERIES FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2000
(1) ORGANIZATION
Advantus Series Fund, Inc. (the Fund) is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (as amended) as a diversified (except for Global Bond
Portfolio), open-end management investment company with a series of nineteen
portfolios (Growth, Bond, Money Market, Asset Allocation, Mortgage Securities,
Index 500, Capital Appreciation, International Stock, Small Company Growth,
Maturing Government Bond 2002, Maturing Government Bond 2006, Maturing
Government Bond 2010, Value Stock, Small Company Value, Global Bond, Index 400
Mid-Cap, Macro-Cap Value, Micro-Cap Growth and Real Estate Securities). The
Fund's prospectus provides a detailed description of each Portfolio's investment
objective, policies and strategies.
The Fund accounts for the assets, liabilities and operations of each Portfolio
separately. Shares of the Fund will not be offered directly to the public, but
sold only to Minnesota Life Insurance Company's (Minnesota Life) separate
accounts in connection with Minnesota Life variable contracts and policies.
(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies followed by the Fund are as follows:
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES
Each Portfolio's net asset value is generally calculated as of the close of
normal trading on the New York Stock Exchange (typically 3:00 p.m. Central
Time). Investments in securities traded on a U.S. or foreign securities exchange
are valued at the last sales price on that exchange prior to the time when
assets are valued; securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed
securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued on the basis
of the last current bid price, by an independent pricing service or at a price
deemed best to reflect fair value quoted by dealers who make markets in these
securities. When market quotations are not readily available, securities are
valued at fair value as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by the
Board of Directors. Short-term securities, with the exception of those held in
Money Market, International Stock, Macro-Cap Value and Global Bond Portfolios,
are valued at market. For International Stock, Macro-Cap Value and Global Bond
Portfolios, short-term securities with maturities of less than 60 days when
acquired, or which subsequently are within 60 days of maturity, are valued at
amortized cost which approximates market value. Pursuant to Rule 2a-7 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (as amended), all securities in Money Market are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value, in order to maintain
a constant net asset value of $1 per share.
Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased
or sold. Realized gains and losses are calculated on the identified-cost basis.
Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income,
including amortization of bond premium and discount computed on a level yield
basis, is accrued daily.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS AND FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS
Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated daily into U.S. dollars at the closing rate of
exchange. Foreign currency amounts related to the purchase or sale of
securities, income and expenses are translated at the exchange rate on the
transaction date. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of
operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from
the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such
fluctuations are included with net realized and unrealized gains or losses from
investments.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales and maturities of
short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses
realized between trade and settlement dates on security transactions,

the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign
withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of
the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and
losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than
investments in securities, resulting from changes in the exchange rates.
International Stock and Global Bond also may enter into forward foreign currency
exchange contracts for operational purposes and to protect against adverse
exchange rate fluctuations. Global Bond may also enter into these contracts for
purposes of increasing exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to
foreign currency fluctuations from one country to another. The net U.S. dollar
value of foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by
International Stock or Global Bond and the resulting unrealized appreciation or
depreciation are determined using foreign currency exchange rates from an
independent pricing service. International Stock and Global Bond are subject to
the credit risk that the other party will not complete the obligations of the
contract.
FUTURES TRANSACTION
To gain exposure to or protect itself from market changes, the Fund may buy
and sell financial futures contracts traded on any U.S. or foreign exchange. The
Fund also may buy and write put and call options on these futures contracts.
Risks of entering into futures contracts and related options include the
possibility of an illiquid market and that a change in the value of the contract
or option may correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit either
cash or securities in an amount (initial margin) equal to a certain percentage
of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or
received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the
daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and
losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed
or expires.
FEDERAL TAXES
The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its
taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no income tax provision is required.
Each Portfolio within the Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal
income tax purposes. The Fund's policy is to make the required minimum
distributions prior to December 31, in order to avoid Federal excise tax.
For federal income tax purposes, the following Portfolios had capital loss
carryovers at June 30, 2000, which, if not offset by subsequent capital gains,
will expire December 31, 2002 through 2008. It is unlikely the Board of
Directors will authorize a distribution of any net realized capital gains until
the available capital loss carryovers have been offset or expire:

dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Distributions to shareholders from net investment income for Money Market
are declared and reinvested daily in additional shares of capital stock. For
Portfolios other than Money Market, distributions from net investment income and
realized gains, if any, will generally be declared and reinvested in additional
shares on an annual basis.
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS
Delivery and payment for securities which have been purchased by the Fund on
a forward commitment or when-issued basis can take place a month or more after
the transaction date. During this period, such securities are subject to market
flucuations. As of June 30, 2000, Asset Allocation Portfolio had entered into
outstanding, when-issued or forward commitments of $4,340,320. The Portfolio has
segregated assets with the Portfolio's custodian to cover such when-issued and
forward commitments.
(3) INVESTMENT SECURITY TRANSACTIONS
For the period ended June 30, 2000, the cost of purchases and proceeds from
sales of investment securities aggregated $469,810,874 and $481,194,899,
respectively, for Money Market. For the other Portfolios, the cost of purchases
and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than temporary
investments in short-term securities, for the period ended June 30, 2000 were as

VOLUNTARY FEE ABSORPTION
Prior to May 1, 2000, Minnesota Life had voluntarily agreed to absorb all
fees and expenses that exceed .65% of average daily net assets for the Growth
Portfolio, Bond Portfolio, Money Market Portfolio, Asset Allocation Portfolio

Minnesota Life had voluntarily agreed to absorb expenses, excluding investment
advisory fees, that exceed 1.00% for International Stock Portfolio. Effective
May 1, 2000, Advantus Capital has voluntarily agreed to absorb all fees and
expenses that exceed, for each Portfolio, the percentage of average daily net
assets set forth above. Advantus Capital has not agreed to absorb expenses over
a specified period of time and it may cease its absorption of expenses at any
time. If it does so, some Portfolio expenses would increase and thereby reduce
investment return.
During the period ended, Advantus Capital Management voluntarily agreed to
absorb $33,800, $33,919, $34,266, $50,204, $49,639, $58,526, $7,200 and $40,927

The Fund has adopted a Rule 12b-1 Distribution Plan covering all of its
Portfolios except the Maturing Government Bond Portfolios. Each covered
Portfolio pays distribution fees equal to .25% per annum of the average daily
net assets of the Portfolio. These fees are paid out of the Portfolio's assets,
which affects the Portfolio's share price. The fees are paid to Ascend Financial
Services, Inc. (Ascend Financial) the Fund's underwriter, to pay for
distribution-related expenses and activities in connection with the distribution
of the Portfolio's shares. Ascend Financial may also use the fees to pay
insurance companies, dealers or others for certain non-distribution services as
provided for in the Distribution Plan.

(8) ILLIQUID SECURITIES
Each Portfolio of the Fund currently limits investments in illiquid
securities to 15% of net assets at the time of purchase, except for Money Market
which limits the investment in illiquid securities to 10% of net assets. At June
30, 2000, investments in securities of Bond, Asset Allocation, Mortgage
Securities and International Stock include issues that are illiquid. The
aggregate values of illiquid securities held by Bond, Asset Allocation, Mortgage
Securities and International Stock were $6,794,499, $17,594,297, $45,577,128 and
$4,692,190, respectively, which represent 3.9%, 2.3%, 32.8% and 1.3% of net
assets, respectively. Securities are valued by procedures described in note 2.
Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Fund's Board of Directors, certain
unregistered securities are determined to be liquid and are not included within
the percent limitations specified above.
