Economic Overview July 1997
We are currently in the greatest bull market of all time, and wealth has
been created on a scale that has never been seen before. The strength and
longevity of this market have surprised even the staunchest market advocates. A
preemptive strike against inflation by the Federal Reserve Board in March - a 25
basis point increase in the Fed Fund's Rate - produced a pullback in the stock
market. However, since that minor correction, the broad equity market has
produced approximately 20% returns in several large-capitalization stock
indexes. This has left many investment professionals wondering if we have
reached a nearly perfect investment environment - and how long it might last.
The driving forces behind the strength of the market during the last 10
years are low inflation, strong economic growth, and increased worker
productivity. These factors have led to above-average increases in corporate
profits and earnings, sending stock prices higher. Meanwhile, prices across the
economy (as measured by the Gross Domestic Product price deflator) rose only
1.8% in 1996 -- the smallest gain since 1964. Currently, the inflation rate for
the U.S. economy is at 2.2%, and producer prices actually declined over the
first six months in 1997.
Gains in worker productivity have helped curb inflation. Over the last 10
years, corporate restructuring, downsizing, and investments in technology have
increased the efficiency of American companies and workers. These gains have
outpaced wage increases. Coupled with increased international competition,
improved productivity has put downward pressure on prices - which is beneficial
for the economy as it stimulates consumer demand.
As a result, the U.S. economy has re-established itself as the global
leader. In turn, the demand for skilled labor has risen, and unemployment in May
1997 was at 4.8% (the lowest level since 1973). Some naysayers suggest that the
tight labor market will eventually lead to increased wages and inflation, which
may have negative consequences for corporate stock prices.
The fixed-income market, although producing gains over the last six months,
has not enjoyed the jubilance experienced in the equity markets. Concerns over
potential wage inflation, a slowing economy, and an increase in the Fed Funds
Rate have kept fixed-income securities in what appears to be a consolidated
trading range.

INVESCO Variable Investment
Funds, Inc.
The line graphs on the following pages illustrate, for the period from
inception through 6/30/97, the value of a $10,000 investment in each of the
INVESCO Variable Investment Funds, plus reinvested dividends and capital gain
distributions. The charts and other total return figures cited reflect the
funds' operating expenses, but the indexes do not have expenses, which would, of
course, have lowered their performance. (Past performance is not a guarantee of
future results.)(1,2)
VIF-Industrial Income Fund
For the six-month period ended 6/30/97, VIF-Industrial Income Fund achieved
a total return of 14.10%. During the same period, the S&P 500 had a total return
of 20.58%, and the Lehman Government/Corporate Bond index had a total return of
2.74%. (Of course, past performance is not a guarantee of future results.)(1),

Equity Strategy
The last year proved rewarding for domestic equity investors and
shareholders of VIF-Industrial Income Fund. However, rewards were not produced
without increased volatility as the general market suffered two corrections, and
sector rotation was quick and severe. Within this environment, we have remained
true to our investment philosophy: first, examining economic variables to
determine sectors of the economy that might outperform the market, and then
selecting stocks within those sectors. After determining the appropriate
sectors, we look for companies with attributes that we call the "Mile High
Five": strong balance sheets, positive cash flows, excellent management, market
leadership positions, and the ability to grow earnings.
Graph:
This line graph compares the value of a $10,000 investment in
VIF--Industrial Income Fund to the value of a $10,000 investment in the S&P
500 Index and the Lehman Government/Corporate Bond Index, assuming in each
case reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, for the
period from inception (8/94) through 6/30/97.
By buying companies on fundamentals rather than market momentum, we seek to
select stocks that will perform well today and in the future. This keeps the
fund's portfolio turnover relatively low and reduces expenses -- a bonus for
shareholders. Over the last six months, we have also kept the fund well-balanced
between sectors. This has allowed us to participate in market appreciation while
helping limit volatility.
Over the last six months, many high-growth, large-capitalization companies
have provided substantial returns for the fund. Stocks in the health care and
technology sectors such as Intel Corp, International Busienss Machines, Lucent
Technologies, and Warner-Lambert Co. have seen phenomenal price appreciation.
Recently, we have started to trim our exposure to several large-cap,
higher-growth companies, as we feel many may be fully valued. In the technology
<PAGE>
sector, our analysis has led us to reduce our exposure to companies like
Intel Corp and International Busienss Machines, and increase our focus on more
reasonably valued companies like Motorola Inc. and Texas Instruments.
Our sector analysis has also led us to favor more conservative, reasonably
valued sectors such as capital goods and telecommunications. The former sector
continues to benefit from strong earnings growth, corporate restructuring, and
industry consolidation. This has improved the long-term profitability of many
capital goods companies.
In the telecommunications sector, our analysis shows an industry that has
benefited from consolidation and increased consumer demand for new products
(e.g. second phone lines, call waiting). Increased demand for ancillary products
should translate into accelerating earnings for many companies. When investing
in this sector, an added bonus is that many of these stocks are presently
selling at substantial discounts compared to the broad market multiple - despite
growing earnings in the 10% to 12% range while providing a 4% to 5% dividend
yield.
Fixed-Income Strategy
The fixed-income market experienced a tightening in credit and interest rate
spreads over the last year. This compression of spreads altered the risk/reward
relationship for the market, and it presently appears that fixed-income
securities may be trading in a consolidated range. Within this environment, we
have been successful by using our value-oriented bond management style to
identify corporate issuers who may experience fundamental credit quality
improvement or be acquired by a better-quality issuer. Many of these credit
improvements or special situations occurred in communications and electric
utility industries.
Finally, we have reduced our exposure to mortgage-backed securities after a
year of strong performance and tightening spreads. Concurrently, we have
increased our use of putable and yield-to-call bonds, which should help to
provide performance and stability in a potential volatile market. (Putable bonds
are debt obligations that allow holders to redeem the issue at specified
intervals before maturity and receive full face value.)
Looking Forward
The fund is designed for the patient long-term investor, and may be
appropriate as a core holding in a well-diversified portfolio. Presently, the
fund is invested in approximately 80% equities and 20% bonds. However, the
fund's investment flexibility allows the managers to reduce equity exposure to
65% (or increase it to 85%) of the fund's total net assets, depending upon
market conditions. This type of investment freedom produces a fund that
historically has participated in market rallies, but has limited shareholders'
exposure to market declines.
Fund Management
Senior Vice President and Director of Investments Charles P. Mayer is
responsible for the equity side of the portfolio. An industry veteran with 28
years of professional experience, he earned an MBA from St. John's University
and a BA from St. Peter's College. Previously, Charlie was with Westinghouse
Pension Investment Corp.
Charlie is assisted by Vice President Albert M. Grossi. Al began his
investment career as a securities analyst in 1974. Previously, he served as a
portfolio manager/senior analyst with Westinghouse Pension Investments
Corporation. He holds both an MBA and BA from Rutgers University. Senior Vice
President Donovan J. "Jerry" Paul serves as co-portfolio manager of the fund,
<PAGE>
concentrating on fixed-income securities. Jerry began his investment career
in 1976; before joining INVESCO, he worked for Stein, Roe & Farnham Inc., as
well as Quixote Investment Management. He earned an MBA from the University of
Northern Iowa, and a BBA from the University of Iowa. He is a Chartered
Financial Analyst and Certified Public Accountant.
VIF-Total Return Fund
For the six-month period ended 6/30/97, VIF-Total Return Fund achieved a
total return of 13.25%. During the same period, the S&P 500 had a total return
of 20.58%, and the Lehman Government/Corporate Bond index had a total return of
2.74%. (Of course, past performance is not a guarantee of future results.)(1),
(2)
Total Return Fund seeks to add value in three ways: through asset
allocation, stock selection, and bond strategy. For example, the average
historical spread of returns between bonds and stocks is three percent. If the
spread is out-of-line with this historical relationship, then the fund's asset
mix is adjusted to reflect the current environment. A mix of 60% stocks and 40%
bonds is considered a neutral position. Presently, our asset mix slightly favors
equities, with an approximate allocation between bonds and stocks of 34% and
66%, respectively.

Over the last six months, the market has been infatuated with
lower-yielding, large-capitalization high-growth companies. Although many of
these companies are solid fundamentally, it appears that a significant portion
may be over-valued. With this in mind, we have steered our investments away from
higher growth sectors to more conservative, reasonably valued industry groups
such as consumer cyclicals, consumer staples, and capital goods.
Graph:
This line graph compares the value of a $10,000 investment in VIF--Total
Return Fund to the value of a $10,000 investment in the S&P 500 Index and
the Lehman Government/Corporate Bond Index, assuming in each case
reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, for the period
from inception (6/94) through 6/30/97.
Looking Forward
We will continue to monitor the relationship between the returns on bonds
and stocks, and adjust the portfolio accordingly. Within this volatile
environment, we will stay with our disciplined investment approach: selecting
stocks using a "bottom up" value process, while examining bonds on fundamentals
and analysis of Federal Reserve Board policy.
Fund Management
VIF-Total Return Fund is managed by Edward C. Mitchell, president of INVESCO
Capital Management, Inc. He earned his MBA at the University of Colorado and a
BA from the University of Virginia. Ed began his investment career in 1969.

He is assisted by David S. Griffin, who began his investment career in 1982.
David holds an MBA from the College of William & Mary, as well as a BA from Ohio
Wesleyan University. He is a Chartered Financial Analyst.
VIF-High Yield Fund
For the six-month period ended 6/30/97, VIF-High Yield Fund achieved a total
return of 7.47%, easily outperforming the Merrill Lynch High Yield Index, which
over the same period had a total return of 5.86%. (Of course, past performance
is not a guarantee of future results.)(1),(2)
During the last six months, the high-yield sector again led the fixed-income
market. However, tightening credit and interest rate spreads have changed the
risk/reward relationship in the bond market, demanding a greater emphasis on
fundamental analysis when evaluating high-yield securities. Within this
environment, our in-depth research has been crucial in identifying undervalued
high-yield securities whose fundamentals may be improving, as well as helping
limit our risk exposure.

Our thorough research has continued to favor the communications industry --
especially the competitive local exchange market. This industry continues to
experience consolidation and improving fundamentals. Recently, the fund's
performance has been enhanced by companies like McLeod Inc. and Brooks Fiber
Properties. These firms have been improving fundamentally, and are active in
acquiring local communications companies.
Looking Forward
Tightening spreads in high-yield securities have created a more difficult
investment landscape. However, despite narrow spreads, we continue to identify
opportunities for capital appreciation and/or credit improvement. High-yield
securities trade primarily on creditworthiness and less on interest rates. Thus,
a substantial increase in interest rates may have a minimal effect on high-yield
bonds compared to the broad fixed-income market.

Yield Fund to the value of a $10,000 investment in the Merrill Lynch High

through 6/30/97.

VIF-High Yield Fund is managed by Donovan J. "Jerry" Paul. Jerry began his

VIF-Utilities
For the six-month period ended 6/30/97, VIF-Utilities Fund achieved a total
return of 6.44%. During the same period, the Dow Jones Utilities Index had a
total return of -2.47%. (Of course, past performance is not a guarantee of
future results.)(1,2)
A changing regulatory environment has made the utility sector more
challenging. Within the electric utility industry, deregulation and securitizing
of debt by selected companies has had a major influence on stock prices. For the
telecommunications industry, consolidation, regulatory reform, and increased
competition in the local and long distance markets have affected value. The
natural gas industry is also influenced by changes in the regulatory and
political environment.
Graph:
This line graph compares the value of a $10,000 investment in VIF--Utilities
Fund to the value of a $10,000 investment in the Dow Jones Utilities Index,
assuming in each cash reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain
distributions, for the period from inception (1/95) through 6/30/97.
Within this investment environment, we continue to overweight the portfolio
with natural gas companies. This particular stock group has benefited from
consolidation, a trend that should continue as companies become more efficient
and profitable through acquisitions.
In the telecommunication industry, RBOCs (Regional Bell Operating Companies)
remain among our favorites. Companies like Bell Atlantic, NYNEX Corp, and SBC
Communications should benefit from increased demand for ancillary products (e.g.
second phone lines, call waiting) and industry consolidation.

Deregulation in the electric utility industry will allow low-cost providers
of electricity to continue to increase their market share and profitability.
Public Service of Colorado is an example of a low-cost provider that has
enhanced the fund's returns over the last six months.
Looking Forward
The utility sector continues to benefit from positive structural changes.
These changes may increase the profitability of selected firms. In addition to
offering this potential for capital appreciation, utility stocks are typically
defensive in nature, producing a high dividend yield. These stocks may add a
degree of stability to a portfolio exposed to the broad equity market.
Fund Management
Effective July 1, 1997, Brian B. Hayward assumed the responsibilities of
portfolio manager of VIF-Utilities Fund. Previously, he was a senior equity
analyst for Mississippi Valley Advisors in St. Louis, Missouri and began his
investment career in 1985. Brian earned a BA in Mathematics and MA in Economics
<PAGE>
from the University of Missouri. He is a Chartered Financial Analyst.
(1)Total return assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions
for the periods indicated. Past performance is not a guarantee of future
results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that, when
redeemed, an investor's shares may be worth more or less than when purchased.
(2)The S&P 500 is an unmanaged index considered representative of the
performance of the broad U.S. stock market. The Dow Jones Utilities Index is an
unmanaged index of utilities stocks. The Lehman Government/Corporate Bond and
Merrill Lynch High Yield Index are unmanaged indexes indicative of the broad
fixed-income and high-yield markets, respectively.

INVESCO Variable Investment Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
UNAUDITED
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. INVESCO Variable
Investment Funds, Inc. (the "Fund") was incorporated in Maryland and presently
consists of nine separate Portfolios: Dynamics Portfolio, Growth Portfolio,
Health Sciences Portfolio, High Yield Portfolio, Industrial Income Portfolio,
Small Company Growth Portfolio, Technology Portfolio, Total Return Portfolio and
Utilities Portfolio. Health Sciences Portfolio, High Yield Portfolio, Industrial
Income Portfolio, Technology Portfolio, Total Return Portfolio and Utilities
Portfolio (the "Portfolios") are presented herein. The investment objectives of
the Portfolios are: To seek the best possible current income for Industrial
Income Portfolio; to seek a high total return on investment through capital
appreciation and current income for Total Return Portfolio; to seek a high level
of current income by investing principally in lower rated bonds and other debt
securities and in preferred stock for High Yield Portfolio; to seek capital
appreciation and income on securities principally engaged in specific business
sectors for Technology and Health Sciences Portfolios; and to seek capital
appreciation and income on securities of companies principally engaged in public
utilities for Utilities Portfolio. Health Sciences and Technology Portfolios
commenced investment operations on May 22, 1997 and May 21, 1997, respectively.
Dynamics, Small Company Growth and Growth Portfolios have not yet commenced
operations. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the
"Act") as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund's
shares are not offered directly to the public but are sold exclusively to life
insurance companies ("Participating Insurance Companies") as a pooled funding
vehicle for variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts issued by
separate accounts of the Participating Insurance Companies.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund in the preparation 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 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.
A. SECURITY VALUATION - Equity securities traded on national securities
exchanges or in the over-the-counter market are valued at the last sales
price in the market where such securities are primarily traded. If last
sales prices are not available, securities are valued at the highest
closing bid price obtained from one or more dealers making a market for
such securities or by a pricing service approved by the Fund's board of
directors.
Debt securities are valued at evaluated bid prices as determined by a
pricing service approved by the Fund's board of directors. If evaluated
bid prices are not available, debt securities are valued by averaging
the bid prices obtained from one or more dealers making a market
for such securities.
Foreign securities are valued at the closing price on the principal
stock exchange on which they are traded. In the event that closing
prices are not available for foreign securities, prices will be obtained
from the principal stock exchange at or prior to the close of the New
York Stock Exchange. Foreign currency exchange rates are determined
daily prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange.
<PAGE>
If market quotations or pricing service valuations are not readily
available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good
faith by the Fund's board of directors.
Short-term securities are stated at amortized cost (which approximates
market value) if maturity is 60 days or less at the time of purchase,
or market value if maturity is greater than 60 days.
Assets and liabilities initially expressed in terms of foreign
currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing market rates
as quoted by one or more banks or dealers on the date of valuation. The
cost of securities is translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of
exchange prevailing when such securities are acquired. Income and expenses
are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange prevailing when
accrued.
B. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - Repurchase agreements held by the Fund are fully
collateralized by U.S. Government securities and such collateral is in the
possession of the Fund's custodian. The collateral is evaluated daily to
ensure its market value exceeds the current market value of the repurchase
agreements including accrued interest.
C. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INVESTMENT INCOME - Security transactions
are accounted for on the trade date and dividend income is recorded on the
ex dividend date. Certain dividends from foreign securities will be
recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the dividend if such information
is obtained subsequent to the ex dividend date. Interest income, which may
be comprised of stated coupon rate, market discount, original issue discount
and amortized premium is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and
premiums on debt securities purchased are amortized over the life of the
respective security as adjustments to interest income. Cost is determined
on the specific identification basis.
Effective January 1, 1997, the Fund began accruing income using the
effective interest method which includes amortizing premiums on purchases of
portfolio securities as adjustments to income. This method of recording
income more closely reflects the economics of holding and disposing of debt
instruments. Prior to January 1, 1997, the Fund accrued coupon interest
income and original issue discount and accounted for purchased premiums as
capital gains or losses when realized upon disposition of the associated
security. The cumulative effect of applying this accounting change was to
decrease accumulative undistributed net investment income by $2,636, $3,333
and $14,511 for High Yield, Industrial Income and Total Return Portfolios,
respectively. Such accounting change had no effect on net asset value per
share. Health Sciences, Technology, and Utilities Portfolios were not
effected by this accounting change.
The Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in
foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may
subject the Fund to additional risks resulting from future political or
economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign
governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. Net realized and
unrealized gain or loss from investments includes fluctuations from currency
exchange rates and fluctuations in market value.
The High Yield Portfolio invests primarily in high yield bonds, some of
which may be rated below investment grade. These high yield bonds may be
more susceptible than higher grade bonds to real or perceived adverse
economic or industry conditions. The secondary market, on which high yield
bonds are traded, may also be less liquid than the market for higher grade
bonds.
The Fund's use of short-term forward foreign currency contracts may
subject it to certain risks as a result of unanticipated movements in
<PAGE>
foreign exchange rates. The Fund does not hold short-term forward foreign
currency contracts for trading purposes. The Fund may hold foreign currency
in anticipation of settling foreign security transactions and not for
investment purposes.
Investments in securities of governmental agencies may only be
guaranteed by the respective agency's limited authority to borrow from the
U.S. Government and may not be guaranteed by the full faith and credit of
the United States.
D. FEDERAL AND STATE TAXES - The Fund has complied and continues to comply with
the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and, accordingly, has made or intends to make
sufficient distributions of net investment income and net realized capital
gains, if any, to relieve it from all federal and state income taxes and
federal excise taxes. Total Return and Utilities Portfolios, incurred and
elected to defer post-October net capital losses of $8,192 and $1,911,
respectively, to the year ended December 31, 1997. Net Capital loss
carryovers utilized in 1996 by Utilities Portfolio amounted to $175.
To the extent future capital gains are offset by capital loss
carryovers, such gains will not be distributed to shareholders. Therefore,
no income tax provision is required.
Dividends paid by the Fund from net investment income and distributions
of net realized short-term capital gains are, for federal income tax
purposes, taxable as ordinary income to shareholders.
Investment income received from foreign sources may be subject to
foreign withholding taxes. Dividend and interest income is shown gross of
foreign withholding taxes in the accompanying financial statements.
E. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - Dividends and distributions to
shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex dividend/distribution date.
The Fund distributes net realized capital gains, if any, to its shareholders
at least annually, if not offset by capital loss carryovers. Income
distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing
treatments for mortgage-backed securities, market discounts, amortized
premiums, foreign currency transactions, nontaxable dividends, net operating
losses and expired capital loss carryforwards.
F. ORGANIZATION COSTS - Organization costs of $73,640 advanced by INVESCO Funds
Group, Inc. ("IFG") for High Yield, Industrial Income, Total Return and
Utilities Portfolios are amortized and are payable on a straight-line basis
over a sixty-month period from the date the Fund commenced operations. IFG
has agreed that if it redeems any of its initially acquired shares of the
Fund during the five years from the date the Fund commenced operations, the
proceeds payable to it in respect of such shares will be reduced by a pro
rata share of the Fund's unamortized organization costs.
G. EXPENSES - Each of the Portfolios bears expenses incurred specifically on
its behalf and, in addition, each Portfolio bears a portion of general
expenses, based on the relative net assets of each Portfolio.
Under an agreement between each Portfolio and the Fund's Custodian,
agreed upon Custodian Fees and Expenses are reduced by credits granted by
the Custodian from any temporarily uninvested cash. Such credits are
included in Fees and Expenses Paid Indirectly in the Statement of
Operations.
NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER AGREEMENTS. IFG serves as the Fund's
investment adviser. As compensation for its services to the Fund, IFG receives
an investment advisory fee which is accrued daily at the applicable rate and
<PAGE>
paid monthly. The fee is based on the annual rate of each Portfolio's average
net assets as follows:

</TABLE>
In accordance with a Sub-Advisory Agreement between IFG and INVESCO Trust
Company ("ITC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of IFG, investment decisions of
Health Sciences, High Yield, Industrial Income, Technology and Utilities
Portfolios are made by ITC. A separate Sub-Advisory Agreement between IFG and
INVESCO Capital Management, Inc. ("ICM"), an affiliate of IFG, provides that
investment decisions of Total Return Portfolio are made by ICM. Fees for such
sub-advisory services are paid by IFG.
In accordance with an Administrative Agreement, each Portfolio pays IFG an
annual fee of $10,000, plus an additional amount computed at an annual rate of
0.015% of average net assets to provide administrative, accounting and clerical
services. The fee is accrued daily and paid monthly.
IFG receives a transfer agent fee of $5,000 per Portfolio per year. The fee
is paid monthly at one-twelfth of the annual fee.
IFG has voluntarily agreed, in some instances, to absorb certain fees and
expenses incurred by each Portfolio. NOTE 3 - PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENT
SECURITIES. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the aggregate cost of
purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities (excluding all U.S.

independent directors of the Fund who will have served as an independent
director for at least five years at the time of retirement. Benefits under this
plan are based on an annual rate equal to 40% of the retainer fee at the time of
retirement.
Pension expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997, included in

NOTES 6 - LINE OF CREDIT. The Fund has available a Redemption Line of Credit
Facility ("LOC"), from a consortium of national banks, to be used for temporary
or emergency purposes to fund redemptions of investor shares. The LOC permits
borrowings to a maximum of 10% of the Net Assets at Value of each respective
Portfolio. Each Portfolio agrees to pay annual fees and interest on the unpaid
principal balance based on prevailing market rates as defined in the agreement.
For the six months ended at June 30, 1997, there were no such borrowings.
