Dear Fellow Shareholder,


     Nearly five years ago, we introduced the Limited Term New York Municipal
Fund to address the needs of New York investors who were not only seeking tax
exempt income, but recognized the potential for decreased price volatility
through an average effective portfolio maturity of five years or less. To that
end, we are very pleased to inform you that over the past year -- including this
most recent period of interest rate volatility -- the Limited Term New York
Municipal Fund Class A is the number one fund in its category for total return
as defined by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc.

     Lipper Analytical Services, Inc., an independent mutual fund monitoring
service, characterizes the Limited Term New York Municipal Fund as an Other
States Short Municipal Debt Fund and ranked the Fund 1 out of 34 funds in this
category for the one-year period ended 6/30/96. Performance data for Class B
Shares of the Fund were omitted from Lipper's ranking. Lipper performance does
not take sales charges into consideration and assumes the reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains distributions.

     Without deducting sales charges, the Fund's historical average annual
returns for the one-year and life-of-fund periods ended 6/30/96, are 5.29% and
7.08% for Class A Shares and 5.07% and 5.73% for Class B Shares. Your returns
may vary, depending on when you purchased the fund and the specific sales charge
you incurred.(1) The Fund's 30 day SEC yield (based on earnings of the Fund's
portfolio during the 30 days ended 6/30/96 and the maximum offering price, which
includes the initial sales charge) at 6/30/96 is 5.06% for Class A Shares and
4.67% for Class B Shares.(2)

     In March, the Value Line Mutual Fund Survey stated "The Fund provides an
impressive yield, especially considering its short maturity...it offers a higher
income level than most long-term Muni New York funds."(3) Despite our modest
dividend decrease in May of 0.1 cents per share (for both Class A and Class B
Shares), the Fund still achieved an annualized distribution yield of 5.11% for
Class A Shares and 4.68% for Class B Shares when considered with the Fund's
Maximum Offering Price of 6/30/96. Also, 100% of this income was exempt from
Federal, New York State and New York City income taxes.(4)

     You should also be aware that, as of 6/30/96, the Fund's Class A Shares
retain the five-star ranking among 924 municipal bond funds by Morningstar
Mutual Funds.(5) This objective ranking continues to reinforce our belief that
the bottom-up investment style we embrace here in Rochester has produced strong
long-term returns and mitigated some of the risks inherent in municipal bond
investing.

     We will continue to adhere to the Fund's objective of offering long-term
investors high tax-free yields, and look forward to reporting on the Fund's
progress in the coming quarters.


                                       Sincerely,


                                         /s/ RONALD H. FIELDING
                                         --------------------------

TOTAL RETURNS INCLUDE CHANGE IN SHARE PRICE AND REINVESTMENT OF DIVIDENDS AND
CAPITAL GAINS DISTRIBUTIONS. PAST PERFORMANCE DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS.
INVESTMENT RETURN AND PRINCIPAL VALUE OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND WILL
FLUCTUATE SO THAT AN INVESTOR'S SHARES, WHEN REDEEMED, MAY BE WORTH MORE OR LESS
THAN THEIR ORIGINAL COST. FOR MORE COMPLETE INFORMATION, PLEASE REVIEW THE
PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU INVEST.

(1)  For the periods ended 6/30/96, after deducting the maximum initial sales
     charge of 2.00%, Class A total returns showing results of hypothetical
     investments made on 6/30/95 and 9/18/91 (the Fund's inception date) are
     3.19% and 6.63% respectively. Class B total returns showing results for the
     periods ended 6/30/96 of hypothetical investments made on 6/30/95 and
     5/1/95 (inception of class), and the deduction of the applicable contingent
     deferred sales charge of 2.50% (1-Year) and 2.00% (since inception) are
     2.57% and 4.02% respectively. An explanation of the different performance
     calculations is in the Fund's prospectus.

(2)  Standardized yield is net investment income calculated on a
     yield-to-maturity basis for the 30-day period ended 6/30/96, divided by the
     maximum offering price at the end of the period, compounded semiannually
     and then annualized. Falling net asset values will tend to artificially
     raise yields.

(3)  Source: Value Line Mutual Fund Survey, 3/31/96. Value Line Publishing, Inc.
     is an independent mutual fund monitoring service. While reports are
     published monthly, the 3/31/96 issue includes the most recent report of the
     Fund as of the date of this letter.

(4)  A portion of the Fund's distributions in the future may be subject to
     federal, state or local income taxes. For investors subject to alternative
     minimum tax, some of the Fund's distributions may increase that tax. Also,
     while the Fund currently has a capital loss carry forward, future net
     realized capital gain distributions, if any, are taxable as capital gains.

(5)  Source: Morningstar Mutual Funds, 6/30/96. Morningstar, Inc., an
     independent mutual fund monitoring service, produces proprietary monthly
     rankings of funds in broad investment categories (equity, taxable bond,
     tax-exempt bond, or "hybrid") based on risk-adjusted investment returns,
     after considering sales charges and expenses. Investment return measures a
     fund's (or class's) 3-,5- and 10-year (depending on the inception of the
     class or fund) average annual total returns in excess of 90-day U.S.
     Treasury bill returns. Risk measures a fund's (or class's) performance
     below 90-day U.S. Treasury bill returns. Risk and returns are combined to
     produce star rankings, reflecting performance relative to the average fund
     in a fund's category. Five stars is the "highest" ranking (top 10%), 4
     stars is "above average" (next 22.5%) and 1 star is the lowest (bottom
     10%). The Limited Term New York Municipal Fund is categorized as a
     tax-exempt bond fund and there were 924 funds ranked in the 3-Year period.
     Rankings are subject to change. The Fund's Class A and B shares have the
     same portfolio.

ALL bonds are current with their debt service requirements. All unrated bonds
are backed by mortgage liens and guarantees by the issuer. Bonds which are
backed by a letter of credit or by other financial institutions or agencies may
be assigned an investment grade rating by the Manager, which reflects the
quality of the guarantor, institution or agency. Unrated bonds may also be
assigned a rating when the issuer has rated bonds outstanding with comparable
credit characteristics, or when, in the opinion of the Manager, the bond itself
possesses credit characteristics which allow for rating. The unrated bonds in
the portfolio are predominantly smaller issuers which have not applied for a
bond rating. Only those unrated bonds which subsequent to purchase have not been
designated investment grade are included in the "Not Rated" category. For
further information see "Credit Quality" in the Prospectus.

LIMITED TERM NEW YORK MUNICIPAL FUND

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 1996 (Unaudited)


Note 1. Significant Accounting Policies:

The Limited Term New York Municipal Fund (the Fund) is a series of Rochester
Portfolio Series which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended, as a non-diversified, open-end management investment company. The
investment objective of the Fund is to provide shareholders with as high a level
of income exempt from federal, New York State and New York City personal income
taxes as is consistent with its investment policies and prudent investment
management. The Fund intends to invest primarily in a portfolio of investment
grade obligations with a dollar weighted average effective maturity of five
years or less.

On January 4, 1996, Rochester Capital Advisors, L.P. (RCA, L.P.), the Fund's
investment adviser, Rochester Fund Distributors, Inc. (RFD), the Fund's
principal underwriter and Rochester Fund Services, Inc. (RFS), the Fund's
shareholder servicing, accounting and pricing agent, consummated a transaction
with OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (the Manager), which resulted in the sale to the
Manager of certain assets of RCA, L.P., RFD and RFS, including the transfer of
the investment advisory agreement and other contracts with the Fund and the use
of the name "The Rochester Funds".

The Fund offers both Class A and Class B shares. Class A shares are sold with a
front-end sales charge. Class B shares may be subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge. Both classes of shares have identical rights to earnings, assets
and voting privileges, except that each class has its own distribution and/or
service plan, expenses directly attributable to a particular class and exclusive
voting rights with respect to matters affecting a single class. Class B shares
will automatically convert to Class A shares six years after the date of
purchase. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial
statements.

Investment Valuation and Transactions. Portfolio securities are valued at the
close of the New York Stock Exchange on each trading day. Long-term debt
securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked price using
information available from a portfolio pricing service approved by the Board of
Trustees, dealer-supplied valuations provided the Manager is satisfied that the
firm rendering the quotes is reliable and that the quotes reflect current value,
or analysis of various relationships between comparable securities. Securities
for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value
under consistently applied procedures established by the Board of Trustees to
determine fair value in good faith. Investment transactions are accounted for on
the date the investments are purchased or sold (trade date). Cost is determined
and realized gains and losses are based upon the specific identification method
for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Interest income is
recorded on the accrual basis. In computing net investment income, the Fund
amortizes premiums and accretes original issue discount. For municipal bonds
purchased after April 30, 1993 and subsequently sold at a gain, market discount
is accreted at the time of sale (to the extent of the lesser of the accrued
market discount or the disposition gain) and is treated as taxable income,
rather than capital gain.


                                       23



<PAGE>


Securities Purchased on a When-Issued Basis. Delivery and payment for securities
that 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 do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation
and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The Fund
maintains, in a segregated account with its custodian, assets with a market
value equal to the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of
securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis may increase the
volatility of the Fund's net asset value to the extent the Fund makes such
purchases while remaining substantially fully invested. As of June 30, 1996, the
Fund had no outstanding when-issued or forward commitments.

Allocation of Income, Expenses, and Gains and Losses. Income, expenses (other
than those attributable to a specific class) and gains and losses are allocated
daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.

Federal Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income or excise tax provision is required. At June 30, 1996, the Fund
had available for federal income tax purposes an unused capital loss carryover
of approximately $10,617,000 which expires between 1999 and 2004.

Distributions to Shareholders. Income dividends are declared and recorded each
day the New York Stock Exchange is open for business based on the projected net
investment income for a period, usually one month, calculated as if earned pro
rata throughout the period on a daily basis. Such dividends are paid monthly.
Distributions from net realized gains on investments, if any, are recorded on
the ex-dividend date and paid annually. The amount and character of income and
gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These
differences include the treatment of wash sales. Reclassifications are made to
the Fund's capital accounts to reflect income and gains available for
distribution (or available capital loss carryovers) under income tax
regulations.

Deferred Organizational Expenses. The Fund was organized under the laws of
Massachusetts in September, 1991. Deferred organizational expenses in the amount
of $50,000 are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a five year period
ending September, 1996.

Concentration in New York Issuers. There are certain risks arising from
geographic concentration in any state. Certain revenue or tax related events in
a state may impair the ability of certain issuers of municipal securities to pay
principal and interest on their obligations.

Expense Offset Arrangements: Expenses paid indirectly represent a reduction of
custodian fees for earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund.

Other. 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.

                                       25



<PAGE>


OppenheimerFunds Services (OFS), a division of the Manager, is the transfer and
shareholder servicing agent for the Fund. The transfer and shareholder servicing
agent fee paid by the Fund is based on an annual maintenance fee of $24.12 for
each Class A shareholder account and $26.02 for each Class B shareholder
account. During 1996, the Fund paid a total of $3,066 to RFS (the former
shareholder servicing agent), with the remainder being paid to OFS.

For the six months ended June 30, 1996, commissions (sales charges paid by
investors) on sales of Class A shares totaled $968,506, of which $159,392 was
retained by OppenheimerFunds Distributor, Inc. (OFDI), a subsidiary of the
Manager, as general distributor, and by an affiliated broker/dealer. Sales
charges advanced to broker/dealers by OFDI on sales of the Fund's Class B shares
totaled $215,562, of which $2,449 was paid to an affiliated broker/dealer.
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, OFDI received contingent deferred
sales charges of $11,190 upon redemption of Class B shares as reimbursement for
sales commissions advanced by OFDI at the time of sale of such shares.

The Fund has adopted a Service Plan for Class A shares to reimburse OFDI for a
portion of its costs incurred in connection with the personal service and
maintenance of accounts that hold Class A shares. Reimbursement is made monthly
at an annual rate that may not exceed 0.25% of the average annual net assets of
Class A shares of the Fund. OFDI uses the service fee to reimburse brokers,
dealers, banks and other financial institutions quarterly for providing personal
service and maintenance of accounts of their customers that hold Class A shares.
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, OFDI paid $1,627 to an affiliated
broker/dealer as reimbursement for Class A personal service and maintenance
expenses.

The Fund has adopted a compensation type Distribution and Service Plan for Class
B shares to compensate OFDI for its services and costs in distributing Class B
shares and servicing accounts. Under the Plan, the Fund may pay OFDI an annual
asset-based sales charge of up to 0.75% per year on Class B shares that are
outstanding for four years or less, as compensation for sales commissions paid
from its own resources at the time of sale and associated financing costs.
Currently, the Board of Trustees has limited the asset-based sales charge to
0.50% per year on Class B shares. If the Plan is terminated by the Fund, the
Board of Trustees may allow the Fund to continue payments of the asset-based
sales charge to OFDI for certain expenses it incurred before the Plan was
terminated. OFDI also receives a service fee of 0.25% per year as compensation
for costs incurred in connection with the personal service and maintenance of
accounts that hold shares of the Fund, including amounts paid to brokers,
dealers, banks and other financial institutions. The fee is computed on the
average annual net assets of Class B shares, determined as of the close of each
regular business day. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, OFDI retained
$84,106 as compensation for Class B sales commissions and service fee advances,
as well as financing costs. At June 30, 1996, OFDI had incurred unreimbursed
expenses of $233,335 for Class B.

Note 5. Bank Borrowings:

The Fund may borrow up to 10% of its total assets from a bank to purchase
portfolio securities, or for temporary and emergency purposes. The Fund has
entered into an agreement which enables it to participate with two other
Rochester Division funds managed by the Manager, in an unsecured line of credit
with a bank which permits borrowings up to $70 million, collectively. Interest
is charged to each fund, based on its borrowings, at a rate equal to the New
York Interbank Offer Rate (NIBOR) plus 0.75%. Borrowings are payable on demand.

The Fund had borrowings of $8,850,000 outstanding at June 30, 1996. For the six
month period ended June 30, 1996, the average monthly loan balance was
$10,971,000 at an average interest rate of 6.038%. The maximum amount of
