NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to the AIM V.I. Capital Appreciation Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment
objective is to seek capital appreciation through investments in common
stocks, with emphasis on medium-sized and smaller emerging growth companies.
Currently, shares of the Fund are sold only to insurance company separate
accounts to fund the benefits of variable annuity contracts and variable life
insurance policies.
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 at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund in the presentation of its financial statements.
A. Security Valuations - A security listed or traded on an exchange (except
convertible bonds) is valued at its last price on the exchange where the
security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular day,
the security is valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices
on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not
including securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is
valued at the mean between the last bid and asked prices based upon quotes
furnished by market makers for such securities. If a mean is not available,
as is the case in some foreign markets, the closing bid will be used absent
a last sales price. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market
System is valued at the last sales price on the valuation date or absent a
last sales price, at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices. Debt
obligations (including convertible bonds) are valued on the basis of prices
provided by an independent pricing service. Prices provided by the pricing
service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and
may reflect appropriate factors such as yield, type of issue, coupon rate
and maturity date. Securities for which market quotations are not readily
available or are questionable are valued at fair value as determined in
good faith by or under the supervision of the Company's officers in a
manner specifically authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company.
Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity are valued at
amortized cost which
AIM V.I. CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND
11
<PAGE>
approximates market value. Generally, trading in foreign securities is
substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the
New York Stock Exchange. The values of such securities used in computing the
net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of such times. Foreign
currency exchange rates are also generally determined prior to the close of
the New York Stock Exchange. Occasionally, events affecting the values of
such securities and such exchange rates may occur between the times at which
they are determined and the close of the New York Stock Exchange which will
not be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value. If events
materially affecting the value of such securities occur during such period,
then these securities will be valued at their fair value as determined in
good faith by or under the supervision of the Board of Directors.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions - Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
securities sold. Interest income is recorded as earned from settlement date
and is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
C. Federal Income Taxes - It is the Fund's policy to continue to comply with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income and
capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal
income taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
D. Stock Index Futures Contracts - The Fund may purchase or sell stock index
futures contracts as a hedge against changes in market conditions. Initial
margin deposits required upon entering into futures contracts are satisfied
by the segregation of specific securities or cash as collateral for the
account of the broker (the Fund's agent in acquiring the futures position).
During the period the futures contracts are open, changes in the value of
the contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by "marking to
market" on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contracts at
the end of each day's trading. Variation margin payments are made or
received depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred.
When the contracts are closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss
equal to the difference between the proceeds from, or cost of, the closing
transaction and the Fund's basis in the contract. Risks include the
possibility of an illiquid market and the change in the value of the
contracts may not correlate with changes in the value of the securities
being hedged.
E. Organizational Costs - Organizational costs for the Fund of $14,461 are
being amortized over five years.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M
Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.65% of
the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.60% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
Pursuant to a master administrative services agreement between the Company
and AIM, with respect to the Fund, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain
administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, AIM was reimbursed $22,718 for such
services.
The Company has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor for the
Fund.
Certain officers and directors of the Company are officers of AIM and AIM
Distributors.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$2,327 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel
to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the Company.
NOTE 3 - INDIRECT EXPENSES
AIM has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of the
Fund's expenses related to pricing services used by the Fund. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund's expenses were reduced by $186 and the
Fund received reductions in custodian fees of $1,698 under an expense offset
arrangement. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in reductions of
the Fund's total expenses of $1,884 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
NOTE 4 - DIRECTORS' FEES
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who is
not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest directors' fees, if
so elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold by the Fund during the six months ended June
30, 1997 was $189,123,669 and $127,297,771, respectively.
The amount of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment
securities, on a tax basis, as of June 30, 1997 is as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to the AIM V.I. Diversified Income Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment
objective is to seek to achieve a high level of current income. The Fund will
seek to achieve its objective by investing primarily in a diversified
portfolio of foreign and U.S. government and corporate debt securities,
including lower rated high yield debt securities (commonly known as "junk
bonds"). These high yield bonds may involve special risks in addition to the
risks associated with investment in higher rated debt securities. High yield
bonds may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic and
competitive industry conditions than higher grade bonds. Also, the secondary
market in which high yield bonds are traded may be less liquid than the market
for higher grade bonds. Currently, shares of the Fund are sold only to
insurance company separate accounts to fund the benefits of variable annuity
contracts and variable life insurance policies.
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 at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund
in the preparation of its financial statements.
A. Security Valuations--Debt obligations are valued on the basis of prices
provided by an independent pricing service. Prices provided by the pricing
service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and
may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar
groups of securities, developments related to special securities, yield,
quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, individual trading
characteristics and other market data. Investment securities for which
prices are not provided by the pricing service and which are listed or
traded on an exchange are valued at the last sales price on the exchange
where the security is principally traded or, lacking any sales on a
particular day, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices on
that day unless the Board of Directors, or persons designated by the Board
of Directors, determines that the over-
AIM V.I. DIVERSIFIED INCOME FUND
23
<PAGE>
the-counter quotations more closely reflect the current market value of the
security. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market, except (i)
securities priced by the pricing service, (ii) securities for which
representative exchange prices are available, and (iii) securities reported
in the NASDAQ National Market System, are valued at the mean between
representative last bid and asked prices obtained from an electronic
quotation reporting system, if such prices are available, or from established
market makers. Each security reported in the NASDAQ National Market System is
valued at the last sales price on the valuation date or absent a last sales
price, at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices. Securities for which
market quotations are either not readily available or are questionable are
valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision
of the Fund's officers in accordance with methods which are specifically
authorized by the Board of Directors. Short-term obligations having 60 days
or less to maturity are valued at amortized cost which approximates market
value. Generally, trading in foreign securities as well as corporate bonds
and U.S. Government securities is substantially completed each day at various
times prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange. The values of such
securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are
determined as of such times. Foreign currency exchange rates are also
generally determined prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange.
Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities and such
exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and
the close of the New York Stock Exchange which will not be reflected in the
computation of the Fund's net asset value. If events materially affecting the
value of such securities occur during such period, then these securities will
be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by or under the
supervision of the Board of Directors.
B. Foreign Currency Translation - Portfolio securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollars at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities
and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions.
C. Foreign Currency Contracts - A forward currency contract is an obligation
to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a
future date. The Fund may enter into a forward contract to attempt to
minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship
between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a currency contract for
the amount of a purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign
currency in order to "lock-in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The
Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable
to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign
currency changes unfavorably.
Outstanding contracts at June 30, 1997 were as follows:

D. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions -Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is
recorded as earned from settlement date and is recorded on the accrual
basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. It is the policy of the Fund not to amortize premiums
on bonds for financial reporting purposes. Realized gains or losses from
securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
E. Federal Income Taxes - For federal income tax purposes, each portfolio in
the Company is taxed as a separate entity. It is the Fund's policy to
continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its
taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no
provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
The Fund had capital loss carryforwards (which may be carried forward to
offset future taxable capital gains, if any) of $259,399, which expires, if
not previously utilized, through the year 2003. The Fund cannot distribute
capital gains to shareholders until the tax loss carryforwards have been
utilized.
F. Equalization - The Fund follows the accounting practice known as
equalization by which a portion of the proceeds from sales and the costs of
repurchases of fund shares, equivalent on a per share basis to the amount
of undistributed net investment income, is credited or charged to
undistributed net income when the transaction is recorded so that
undistributed net investment income per share is unaffected by sales or
redemptions of Fund shares.
G. Organizational Costs - Organizational costs of the Fund of $14,461 are
being amortized over five years.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with
A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.60% of
the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.55% of
such Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
Pursuant to a master administrative services agreement between the Company
and AIM, with respect to the Fund, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain
administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, AIM was reimbursed $25,540 for such
services.
The Company has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor for the
Fund.
Certain officers and directors of the Company are officers of AIM and AIM
Distributors.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$1,065 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel
to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the Company.
NOTE 3 - INDIRECT EXPENSES
AIM has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the Fund's expenses related to pricing services used by the Fund. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund's expenses were reduced by $32 and the
Fund received reductions in custodian fees of $976 under an expense offset
arrangement. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in a reduction of
the Fund's total expenses of $1,008 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.

NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to the AIM V.I. Global Utilities Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment
objective is to achieve a high level of current income, and as a secondary
objective the Fund seeks to achieve capital appreciation, by investing
primarily in the common and preferred stocks of public utility companies
(either domestic or foreign). Currently, shares of the Fund are sold only to
insurance company separate accounts to fund the benefits of variable annuity
contracts and variable life insurance policies.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund in the presentation of its financial statements. 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 at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Security Valuations - A security listed or traded on an exchange (except
convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price on the exchange where
the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular
day, the security is valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked
prices on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market
(but not including securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market
System) is valued at the mean between the last bid and asked prices based
upon quotes furnished by market makers for such securities. If a mean is
not available, as is the case in some foreign markets, the closing bid will
be used absent a last sales price. Each security reported on the NASDAQ
National Market System is valued at the last sales price on the valuation
date or absent a last sales price, at the mean of the closing bid and asked
prices. Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are valued on the
basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. Prices provided
by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on
quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as yield, type of
issue, coupon rate and maturity date. Securities for which market prices
are not provided by any of the above methods are valued at the mean between
last bid and asked prices based upon quotes furnished by independent
sources. Securities for which market quotations either are not readily
available or are questionable are valued at fair value as determined in
good faith by or under the supervision of the Company's
AIM V.I. GLOBAL UTILITIES FUND

officers in a manner specifically authorized by the Board of Directors.
Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity are valued at
amortized cost which approximates market value. Generally, trading in foreign
securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the
close of the New York Stock Exchange. The values of such securities used in
computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of such
times. Foreign currency exchange rates are also generally determined prior to
the close of the New York Stock Exchange. Occasionally, events affecting the
values of such securities and such exchange rates may occur between the times
at which they are determined and the close of the New York Stock Exchange
which will not be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value.
If events materially affecting the value of such securities occur during such
period, then these securities will be valued at their fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Board of
Directors.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions -Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is
recorded as earned from settlement date and is recorded on the accrual
basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from securities transactions
are recorded on the identified cost basis.
C. Federal Income Taxes - It is the Fund's policy to continue to comply with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income and
capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal
income taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
D. Foreign Currency Translations - Portfolio securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollars at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio securities
and income items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions.
E. Foreign Currency Contracts - A forward currency contract is an obligation
to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a
future date. The Fund may enter into a forward contract to attempt to
minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship
between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a currency contract for
the amount of a purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign
currency in order to "lock-in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The
Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable
to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign
currency changes unfavorably.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M
Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.65% of
the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.60% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
Pursuant to a master administrative services agreement between the Company
and AIM, with respect to the Fund, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain
administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, AIM was reimbursed $24,758 for such
services.
The Company has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor for the
Fund.
Certain officers and directors of the Company are officers of AIM and AIM
Distributors.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$2,457 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel
to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the Company.
NOTE 3 - INDIRECT EXPENSES
AIM has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of the
Fund's expenses related to pricing services used by the Fund. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997 the Fund's expenses were reduced by $7 and the Fund
received reductions in custodian fees of $61 under an expense offset
arrangement. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in a reduction of
the Fund's total expenses of $68 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
NOTE 4 - DIRECTORS' FEES
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who is
not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest directors' fees, if
so elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold by the Fund during the six months ended June
30, 1997 was $2,619,952 and $1,981,322, respectively.
The amount of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment
securities, on a tax basis, as of June 30, 1997 is as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to the AIM V.I. Government Securities Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment
objective is to achieve a high level of current income consistent with
reasonable concern for safety of principal by investing in debt securities
issued, guaranteed or otherwise backed by the U.S. Government. Currently,
shares of the Fund are sold only to insurance company separate accounts to
fund the benefits of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance
policies.
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 at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the
Fund in the presentation of its financial statements.
A. Security Valuations - Debt obligations that are issued or guaranteed by the
U.S. Government, its agencies, authorities, and instrumentalities are
valued on the basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service.
Prices provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive
reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as
yield, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity and seasoning differential.
Securities for which market prices are not provided by the pricing service
are valued at the mean between last bid and asked prices based upon quotes
furnished by independent sources. Securities for which market quotations
are either not readily available or are questionable are valued at fair
value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the
Company's officers in a manner specifically authorized by the Board of
Directors. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity are
valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions -Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is
recorded as earned from settlement date and is recorded on the accrual
basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Realized gains or losses from securities transactions are recorded on the
identified cost basis.
C. Federal Income Taxes - For federal income tax purposes, each portfolio in
the Company is taxed as a separate entity. It is the Fund's
AIM V.I. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES FUND
42
<PAGE>
policy to continue to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of
its taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no
provision for federal income taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
The Fund had capital loss carryforwards (which may be carried forward to
offset future taxable capital gains, if any) of $387,410, which expires, if
not previously utilized, through the year 2004. The Fund cannot distribute
capital gains to shareholders until the tax loss carryforwards have been
utilized.
D. Equalization - The Fund follows the accounting practice known as
equalization by which a portion of the proceeds from sales and the costs of
repurchases of fund shares, equivalent on a per share basis to the amount
of undistributed net investment income, is credited or charged to
undistributed net income when the transaction is recorded so that
undistributed net investment income per share is unaffected by sales or
redemptions of fund shares.
E. Organizational Costs - Organizational costs for the Fund of $14,461 are
being amortized over five years.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with
A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment
advisory agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of
0.50% of the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus
0.45% of the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
Pursuant to a master administrative services agreement between the Company
and AIM, with respect to the Fund, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain
administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, AIM was reimbursed $19,891 for such
services.
The Company has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor of the
Fund's shares.
Certain officers and directors of the Company are officers of AIM and AIM
Distributors.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$2,470 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel
to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the Company.
NOTE 3 - INDIRECT EXPENSES
AIM has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the Fund's expenses related to pricing services used by the Fund. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997 the Fund's expenses were reduced by $13 and the
Fund received reductions in custodian fees of $4 under an expense offset
arrangement. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in a reduction of
the Fund's total expenses of $17 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
NOTE 4 - DIRECTORS' FEES
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who
is not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest a director's
fees, if so elected by such director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with
a deferred compensation plan.
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold by the Fund during the six months ended June
30, 1997 was $10,968,667 and $9,442,030, respectively.
The amount of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities
on a tax basis as of June 30, 1997 is as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to the AIM V.I. Growth Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment objective is
to seek growth of capital principally through investment in common stocks of
seasoned and better capitalized companies considered by AIM to have strong
earnings momentum. Currently, shares of the Fund are sold only to insurance
company separate accounts to fund the benefits of variable annuity contracts
and variable life insurance policies.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund in the presentation of its financial statements. 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 at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Security Valuations - A security listed or traded on an exchange (except
convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price on the exchange where
the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular
day, the security is valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked
prices on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market
(but not including securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market
System) is valued at the mean between the last bid and asked prices based
upon quotes furnished by market makers for such securities. If no mean is
available, as is the case in some foreign markets, the closing bid will be
used absent a last sales price. Each security reported on the NASDAQ
National Market System is valued at the last sales price on the valuation
date, or absent a last sales price, at the mean of the closing bid and
asked prices. Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are valued on
the basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. Prices
provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive
reliance on quoted prices and may reflect appropriate factors such as
yield, type of issue, coupon rate and maturity date. Securities for which
market prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued at
the mean between last bid and asked prices based upon quotes furnished by
independent sources. Securities for which market quotations either are not
readily available or are questionable are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Company's
officers in a manner specifically authorized by the Board of Directors.
Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity are valued at
amortized cost which approximates market value. Generally, trading in
foreign securities is substantially completed each day at various times
prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange. The values of such
securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are
determined as of such times. Foreign currency exchange rates are also
generally determined prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange.
AIM V.I. GROWTH FUND
53
<PAGE>
Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities and such
exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and
the close of the New York Stock Exchange which will not be reflected in the
computation of the Fund's net asset value. If events materially affecting the
value of such securities occur during such period, then these securities will
be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by or under the
supervision of the Board of Directors.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions - Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
securities sold. Interest income is recorded as earned from settlement date
and is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
C. Federal Income Taxes - It is the Fund's policy to continue to comply with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income and
capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal
income taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
D. Organizational Costs - Organizational costs of $14,461 are being amortized
over five years.
E. Stock Index Futures Contracts - The Fund may purchase or sell stock index
futures contracts as a hedge against changes in market conditions. Initial
margin deposits required upon entering into futures contracts are satisfied
by the segregation of specific securities or cash as collateral for the
account of the broker (the Fund's agent in acquiring the futures position).
During the period the futures contracts are open, changes in the value of
the contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by "marking to
market" on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contracts at
the end of each day's trading. Variation margin payments are made or
received depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred.
When the contracts are closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss
equal to the difference between the proceeds from, or cost of, the closing
transaction and the Fund's basis in the contract. Risks include the
possibility of an illiquid market and the change in the value of the
contracts may not correlate with changes in the value of the securities
being hedged.
F. Covered Call Options - The Fund may write call options, but only on a
covered basis; that is, the Fund will own the underlying security. Options
written by the Fund normally will have expiration dates between three and
nine months from the date written. The exercise price of a call option may
be below, equal to, or above the current market value of the underlying
security at the time the option is written. When the Fund writes a covered
call option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is
recorded as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the
liability is subsequently "marked-to-market" to reflect the current market
value of the option written. The current market value of a written option
is the mean between the last bid and asked prices on that day. If a written
call option expires on the stipulated expiration date, or if the Fund
enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or a
loss if the closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when
the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on
the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is
extinguished. If a written option is exercised, the Fund realizes a gain or
a loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds of the
sale are increased by the premium originally received.
A call option gives the purchaser of such option the right to buy, and the
writer (the Fund) the obligation to sell, the underlying security at the
stated exercise price during the option period. The purchaser of a call
option has the right to acquire the security which is the subject of the call
option at any time during the option period. During the option period, in
return for the premium paid by the purchaser of the option, the Fund has
given up the opportunity for capital appreciation above the exercise price
should the market price of the underlying security increase, but has retained
the risk of loss should the price of the underlying security decline. During
the option period, the Fund may be required at any time to deliver the
underlying security against payment of the exercise price. This obligation is
terminated upon the expiration of the option period or at such earlier time
at which the Fund effects a closing purchase transaction by purchasing (at a
price which may be higher than that received when the call option was
written) a call option identical to the one originally written.
G. Foreign Currency Translations - Portfolio securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio
securities and income items denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such
transactions.
H. Foreign Currency Contracts - A forward currency contract is an obligation
to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a
future date. The Fund may enter into a forward currency contract to attempt
to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship
between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a forward currency
contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign
currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The
Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable
to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign
currency changes unfavorably.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M
Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.65% of
the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.60% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
Pursuant to a master administrative services agreement between the Company
and AIM, with respect to the Fund, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain
administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, AIM was reimbursed $25,566 for such
services.
The Company has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor for the
Fund.
Certain officers and directors of the Company are officers of AIM and AIM
Distributors.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$2,828 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel
to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the Company.

NOTE 3 - INDIRECT EXPENSES
AIM has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of the
Fund's expenses related to pricing services used by the Fund. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund's expenses were reduced by $90 and the
Fund received reductions in custodian fees of $463 under an expense offset
arrangement. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in reductions of the
Fund's total expenses of $553 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
NOTE 4 - DIRECTORS' FEES
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who is
not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest directors' fees, if
so elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold by the Fund during the six months ended June 30,
1997 was $136,876,662 and $126,146,452, respectively.
The amount of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment securities,
on a tax basis, as of June 30, 1997 is as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to the AIM V.I. Growth and Income Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment
objective is to seek growth of capital, with current income as a secondary
objective. Currently, shares of the Fund are sold only to insurance company
separate accounts to fund the benefits of variable annuity contracts and
variable life insurance policies.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund in the presentation of its financial statements. 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 at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Security Valuations - A security listed or traded on an exchange (except
convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price on the exchange where
the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular
day, the security is valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked
prices on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market
(but not including securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market
System) is valued at the mean between the last bid and asked prices based
upon quotes furnished by market makers for such securities. If a mean is
not available, as is the case in some foreign markets, the closing bid will
be used absent a last sales price. Each security reported on the NASDAQ
National Market System is valued at the last sales price on the valuation
date or absent a last sales price, at the mean of the closing bid and asked
prices. Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are valued on the
basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. Prices provided
by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on
quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as yield, type of
issue, coupon rate and maturity date. Securities for which market prices
are not provided by any of the above methods are valued at the mean between
last bid and asked prices based upon quotes furnished by independent
sources. Securities for which market quotations either
AIM V.I. GROWTH AND INCOME FUND
65
<PAGE>
are not readily available or are questionable are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Company's
officers in a manner specifically authorized by the Board of Directors.
Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity are valued at
amortized cost which approximates market value. Generally, trading in foreign
securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the
close of the New York Stock Exchange. The values of such securities used in
computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of such
times. Foreign currency exchange rates are also generally determined prior to
the close of the New York Stock Exchange. Occasionally, events affecting the
values of such securities and such exchange rates may occur between the times
at which they are determined and the close of the New York Stock Exchange
which will not be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value.
If events materially affecting the value of such securities occur during such
period, then these securities will be valued at their fair value as
determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Board of
Directors.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions - Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is
recorded as earned from settlement date and is recorded on the accrual
basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on
the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from securities transactions
are recorded on the identified cost basis.
C. Federal Income Taxes - It is the Fund's policy to continue to comply with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income and
capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal
income taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
D. Stock Index Futures Contracts - The Fund may purchase or sell stock index
futures contracts as a hedge against changes in market conditions. Initial
margin deposits required upon entering into futures contracts are satisfied
by the segregation of specific securities as collateral for the account of
the broker (the Fund's agent in acquiring the futures position). During the
period the futures contracts are open, changes in the value of the
contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by "marking to
market" on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the contracts at
the end of each day's trading. Variation margin payments are made or
received depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred.
When the contracts are closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss
equal to the difference between the proceeds from, or cost of, the closing
transaction and the Fund's basis in the contract. Risks include the
possibility of an illiquid market and the change in the value of the
contracts may not correlate with changes in the value of the securities
being hedged.
E. Foreign Currency Translations -- Portfolio securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio
securities and income items denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such
transactions.
F. Foreign Currency Contracts -- A forward currency contract is an obligation
to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a
future date. The Fund may enter into a forward currency contract to attempt
to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship
between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a forward currency
contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign
currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The
Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable
to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign
currency changes unfavorably.
G. Covered Call Options - The Fund may write call options, but only on a
covered basis; that is, the Fund will own the underlying security. Options
written by the Fund normally will have expiration dates between three and
nine months from the date written. The exercise price of a call option may
be below, equal to, or above the current market value of the underlying
security at the time the option is written. When the Fund writes a covered
call option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is
recorded as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the
liability is subsequently "marked-to-market" to reflect the current market
value of the option written. The current market value of a written option
is the mean between the last bid and asked prices on that day. If a written
call option expires on the stipulated expiration date, or if the Fund
enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or a
loss if the closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when
the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on
the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is
extinguished. If a written option is exercised, the Fund realizes a gain or
a loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds of the
sale are increased by the premium originally received.
A call option gives the purchaser of such option the right to buy, and the
writer (the Fund) the obligation to sell, the underlying security at the
stated exercise price during the option period. The purchaser of a call
option has the right to acquire the security which is the subject of the call
option at any time during the option period. During the option period, in
return for the premium paid by the purchaser of the option, the Fund has
given up the opportunity for capital appreciation above the exercise price
should the market price of the underlying security increase, but has retained
the risk of loss should the price of the underlying security decline. During
the option period, the Fund may be required at any time to deliver the
underlying security against payment of the exercise price. This obligation is
terminated upon the expiration of the option period or at such earlier time
at which the Fund effects a closing purchase transaction by purchasing (at a
price which may be higher than that received when the call option was
written) a call option identical to the one originally written. The Fund will
not write a covered call option if, immediately thereafter, the aggregate
value of the securities underlying all such options, determined as of the
dates such options were written, would exceed 25% of the net assets of the
Fund.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M
Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.65% of
the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.60% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
Pursuant to a master administrative services agreement between the Company
and AIM, with respect to the Fund, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain
administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, AIM was reimbursed $21,726 for such
services.
The Company has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor for the
Fund.
Certain officers and directors of the Company are officers of AIM and AIM
Distributors.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$2,754 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel
to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the Company.

NOTE 3 - INDIRECT EXPENSES
AIM has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of the
Fund's expenses related to pricing services used by the Fund. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997 the Fund's expenses were reduced by $88 and the Fund
received reductions in custodian fees of $1,315 under an expense offset
arrangement. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in a reduction of
the Fund's total expenses of $1,403 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
NOTE 4 - DIRECTORS' FEES
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who is
not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest directors' fees, if
so elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold by the Fund during the six months ended June 30,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to AIM V.I. International Equity Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment
objective is to seek to provide long-term growth of capital by investing in a
diversified portfolio of international equity securities the issuers of which
are considered by AIM to have strong earnings momentum. Currently, shares of
the Fund are sold only to insurance company separate accounts to fund the
benefits of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund in the presentation of its financial statements. 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 at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Security Valuations - A security listed or traded on an exchange (except
convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price on the exchange where
the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular
day, the security is valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked
prices on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market
(but not including securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market
System) is valued at the mean between the last bid and asked prices based
upon quotes furnished by market makers for such securities. If a mean is
not available, as is the case in some foreign markets, the closing bid will
be used absent a last sales price. Each security reported on the NASDAQ
National Market System is valued at the last sales price on the valuation
date or absent a last sales price, at the mean of the closing bid and asked
prices. Debt obligations (including convertible bonds) are valued on the
basis of prices provided by an independent pricing service. Prices provided
by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on
quoted prices, and may reflect appropriate factors such as yield, type of
issue, coupon rate and maturity date. Securities for which market
AIM V.I. INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND
77
<PAGE>
prices are not provided by any of the above methods are valued at the mean
between last bid and asked prices based upon quotes furnished by independent
sources. Securities for which market quotations either are not readily
available or are questionable are valued at fair value as determined in good
faith by or under the supervision of the Company's officers in a manner
specifically authorized by the Board of Directors. Short-term obligations
having 60 days or less to maturity are valued at amortized cost which
approximates market value. Generally, trading in foreign securities is
substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the
New York Stock Exchange. The values of such securities used in computing the
net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of such times. Foreign
currency exchange rates are also generally determined prior to the close of
the New York Stock Exchange. Occasionally, events affecting the values of
such securities and such exchange rates may occur between the times at which
they are determined and the close of the New York Stock Exchange which will
not be reflected in the computation of the Fund's net asset value. If events
materially affecting the value of such securities occur during such period,
then these securities will be valued at their fair value as determined in
good faith by or under the supervision of the Board of Directors.
B. Foreign Currency Translations - Portfolio securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio
securities and income items denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such
transactions.
C. Foreign Currency Contracts - A forward currency contract is an obligation
to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a
future date. The Fund may enter into a forward currency contract to attempt
to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship
between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a forward currency
contract for the amount of a purchase or sale of a security denominated in
a foreign currency in order to "lock in" the U.S. dollar price of that
security. The Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the
contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value
of the foreign currency changes unfavorably.
D. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions - Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
losses are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
securities sold. Interest income is recorded as earned from settlement date
and is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
E. Federal Income Taxes - The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment
company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on
otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gains) which is
distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income
taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
F. Organizational Costs - Organizational costs of $14,461 are being amortized
over five years.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with A I M
Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.75% of
the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.70% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
Pursuant to a master administrative services agreement between the Company
and AIM, with respect to the Fund, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain
administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, AIM was reimbursed $31,686 for such
services.
The Company has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor for the
Fund.
Certain officers and directors of the Company are officers of AIM and AIM
Distributors.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$2,688 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel
to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the Company.
NOTE 3 - INDIRECT EXPENSES
AIM has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of the
Fund's expenses related to pricing services used by the Fund. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997 the Fund's expenses were reduced by $81 and the
Fund received reductions in custodian fees of $278 under an expense offset
arrangement. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in a reduction of
the Fund's total expenses of $359 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
NOTE 4 - DIRECTORS' FEES
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who is
not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest directors' fees, if
so elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a deferred
compensation plan.
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold by the Fund during the six months ended June
30, 1997 was $83,468,225 and $46,123,662, respectively.
The amount of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investment
securities, on a tax basis, as of June 30, 1997 is as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to the AIM V.I. Money Market Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment
objective is to seek to provide as high a level of current income as is
consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. Currently, shares
of the Fund are sold only to insurance company separate accounts to fund the
benefits of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund in the presentation of its financial statements. 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 at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Security Valuations - The Fund invests only in securities which have
maturities of 397 days or less from the date of purchase. The securities
are valued on the basis of amortized cost which approximates market value.
This method values a security at its cost on the date of purchase and
thereafter, assumes a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or
premiums.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions -Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
securities sold. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premiums and
discounts on investments, is recorded as earned from settlement date and is
recorded on the accrual basis. Distributions to shareholders are declared
and paid daily.
C. Federal Income Taxes - It is the Fund's policy to continue to comply with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable income and
capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal
income taxes is recorded in the financial statements. The Fund has a
capital loss carryforward (which may be carried forward to offset future
taxable gains, if any) of $846 which expires, if not previously utilized,
in the year 2003. The Fund cannot distribute capital gains to shareholders
until the tax loss carryforwards have been utilized.
D. Organizational Costs - Organizational costs of $14,461 are being amortized
over five years.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with
A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.40% of
the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.35% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.

NOTE 3 - DIRECTORS' FEES

is not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest directors' fees,
if so elected by a director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with a
deferred compensation plan.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
AIM Variable Insurance Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Maryland corporation
organized on January 22, 1993, and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end, series, management
investment company consisting of nine portfolios. Matters affecting each
portfolio are voted on exclusively by the shareholders of such portfolio. The
assets, liabilities and operations of each portfolio are accounted for
separately. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only
to the AIM V.I. Value Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund's investment objective is to
achieve long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in equity securities
judged by AIM to be undervalued relative to the current or projected earnings
of the companies issuing the securities or relative to current market values of
assets owned by the companies issuing the securities or relative to the equity
market generally. Income is a secondary objective. Currently, shares of the
Fund are sold only to insurance company separate accounts to fund the benefits
of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies.
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 at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the
Fund in the presentation of its financial statements.
A. Security Valuations - A security listed or traded on an exchange (except
convertible bonds) is valued at its last sales price on the exchange where
the security is principally traded, or lacking any sales on a particular
day, the security is valued at the mean between the closing bid and asked
prices on that day. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but
not including securities reported on the NASDAQ National Market System) is
valued at the mean between the last bid and asked prices based upon quotes
furnished by market makers for such securities. If a mean is not available,
as is the case in some foreign markets, the closing bid will be used absent
a last sales price. Each security reported on the NASDAQ National Market
System is valued at the last sales price on the valuation date, or absent a
last sales price, at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices. Debt
obligations (including convertible bonds) are valued on the basis of prices
provided by an independent pricing service. Prices provided by the pricing
service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and
may reflect appropriate factors such as yield, type of issue, coupon rate
and maturity date. Securities for which market prices are not provided by
any of the above methods are valued at the mean between last bid and asked
prices based upon quotes furnished by independent sources. Securities for
which market quotations are either not readily available or are questionable
are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the
supervision of the Company's officers in a manner specifically authorized by
the Board of Directors. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to
maturity are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
Generally, trading in foreign securities is substantially completed each day
at various times prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange. The
values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the
Fund's shares
AIM V.I. VALUE FUND
93
<PAGE>
are determined as of such times. Foreign currency exchange rates are also
generally determined prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange.
Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities and such
exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and
the close of the New York Stock Exchange which will not be reflected in the
computation of the Fund's net asset value. If events materially affecting the
value of such securities occur during such period, then these securities will
be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by or under the
supervision of the Board of Directors.
B. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Distributions -Securities
transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains or
losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the
securities sold. Interest income is recorded as earned from settlement date
and is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
C. Federal Income Taxes - The Fund intends to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code necessary to qualify as a regulated investment
company and, as such, will not be subject to federal income taxes on
otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gains) which is
distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income
taxes is recorded in the financial statements.
D. Organizational Costs - Organizational costs for the Fund of $14,461 are
being amortized over five years.
E. Stock Index Futures Contracts - The Fund may purchase or sell stock index
futures contracts as a hedge against changes in market conditions. Initial
margin deposits required upon entering into futures contracts are satisfied
by the segregation of specific securities or cash, and/or by securing a
standby letter of credit from a major commercial bank, as collateral, for
the account of the broker (the Fund's agent in acquiring the futures
position). During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the
value of the contract are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by
"marking to market" on a daily basis to reflect the market value of the
contract at the end of each day's trading. Variation margin payments are
made or received depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are
incurred. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or
loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the
closing transaction and the Fund's basis in the contract. Risks include the
possibility of an illiquid market and the change in the value of the
contract may not correlate with changes in the securities being hedged.
F. Foreign Currency Translations - Portfolio securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollar amounts at date of valuation. Purchases and sales of portfolio
securities and income items denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollar amounts on the respective dates of such
transactions.
G. Forward Currency Contracts - A forward currency contract is an obligation
to purchase or sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a
future date. The Fund may enter into a forward currency contract to attempt
to minimize the risk to the Fund from adverse changes in the relationship
between currencies. The Fund may also enter into a currency contract for
the amount of a purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign
currency in order to "lock-in" the U.S. dollar price of that security. The
Fund could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable
to meet the terms of their contracts or if the value of the foreign
currency changes unfavorably.
H. Covered Call Options - The Fund may write call options, but only on a
covered basis; that is, the Fund will own the underlying security. Options
written by the Fund normally will have expiration dates between three and
nine months from the date written. The exercise price of a call option may
be below, equal to, or above the current market value of the underlying
security at the time the option is written. When the Fund writes a covered
call option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is
recorded as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the
liability is subsequently "market-to-market" to reflect the current market
value of the option written. The current market value of a written option
is the mean between the last bid and asked prices on that day. If a written
call option expires on the stipulated expiration date, or if the Fund
enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund realizes a gain (or a
loss if the closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when
the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on
the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is
extinguished. If a written option is exercised, the Fund realizes a gain or
a loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds of the
sale are increased by the premium originally received.
A call option gives the purchaser of such option the right to buy, and the
writer (the Fund) the obligation to sell, the underlying security at the
stated exercise price during the option period. The purchaser of a call
option has the right to acquire the security which is the subject of the call
option at any time during the option period. During the option period, in
return for the premium paid by the purchaser of the option, the Fund has
given up the opportunity for capital appreciation above the exercise price
should the market price of the underlying security increase, but has retained
the risk of loss should the price of the underlying security decline. During
the option period, the Fund may be required at any time to deliver the
underlying security against payment of the exercise price. This obligation is
terminated upon the expiration of the option period or at such earlier time
at which the Fund effects a closing purchase transaction by purchasing (at a
price which may be higher than that received when the call option was
written) a call option identical to the one originally written.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company has entered into a master investment advisory agreement with
A I M Advisors, Inc. ("AIM"). Under the terms of the master investment advisory
agreement, the Fund pays an advisory fee to AIM at an annual rate of 0.65% of
the first $250 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, plus 0.60% of
the Fund's average daily net assets in excess of $250 million.
Pursuant to a master administrative services agreement between the Company
and AIM, with respect to the Fund, the Company has agreed to reimburse certain
administrative costs incurred in providing accounting services to the Fund.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, AIM was reimbursed $27,990 for such
services.
The Company has entered into a master distribution agreement with A I M
Distributors, Inc. ("AIM Distributors") to serve as the distributor of the
Fund's shares.
AIM V.I. VALUE FUND

<PAGE>
Certain officers and directors of the Company are officers of AIM and AIM
Distributors.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund incurred legal fees of
$2,994 for services rendered by Kramer, Levin, Naftalis & Frankel as counsel
to the Board of Directors. A member of that firm is a director of the Company.
NOTE 3 - INDIRECT EXPENSES
AIM has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the Fund's expenses related to pricing services used by the Fund. For the six
months ended June 30, 1997, the Fund's expenses were reduced by $186 and the
Fund received reductions in custodian fees of $1,129 under expense offset
arrangements. The effect of the above arrangements resulted in reductions of
the Fund's total expenses of $1,315 during the six months ended June 30, 1997.
NOTE 4 - DIRECTORS' FEES
Directors' fees represent remuneration paid or accrued to each director who
is not an "interested person" of AIM. The Company may invest a director's
fees, if so elected by such director, in mutual fund shares in accordance with
a deferred compensation plan.
NOTE 5 - INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The aggregate amount of investment securities (other than short-term
securities) purchased and sold during the six months ended June 30, 1997 was
$349,303,797 and $227,229,750, respectively.
