BALANCED FUND
Your Fund's Performance: A Report from the Manager
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Shareholder:
While it is always difficult to paint a market in broad strokes, this might well
be remembered as the "period of the American consumer." Defying the dire
predictions of many experts, strong domestic spending helped the American
economy barely pause in the face of a dramatic slowdown in world growth last
year.
As you may know, at the shareholder meeting in May, shareholders approved
reorganizing Industrial Income Fund and Total Return Fund. As a result, the
fiscal year-end for both these funds, as well as Balanced Fund, is now May 31.
That, in turn, changed the quarterly dividend payment schedule to February, May,
August, and November.
WHAT IS THE CONSUMER DOING?
Although our fund has not been immune to periodic setbacks, we have enjoyed
solid returns and limited volatility, in part by keeping a keen focus on
American consumers and their spending patterns. By constantly posing the
question, "What is the consumer doing?", we have been able to identify many
promising opportunities.
For the one-year period ended May 31, 1999, the value of your shares rose
14.46%. This return lagged that of the S&P 500 over the same period, which rose
21.03%. At the same time, it exceeded the return of the Lehman
Government/Corporate Bond Index, which increased 4.06%. (Of course, past
performance is not a guarantee of future results.) Remember, the fund has the
flexibility to help cushion its equity investments through the use of
fixed-income securities.(1),(2)
Many of the stocks contributing to the fund's performance were those directly
related to changing patterns in consumer spending. For example, we have
maintained a focus on companies benefiting from the "digital upgrade cycle,"
which has seen consumers trade in old phones, home electronics, and other
products for newer, digital versions. This cycle presents opportunities in a
variety of industries, from media to retailing to telecommunications. We are
optimistic that this cycle still has some way to go, and it should continue to
provide opportunities for investors.

THE SUMMER OF '98
Another key positive contributor to our performance was our ability to adjust
the portfolio's relative weighting in stocks based on our view of valuations. At
the beginning of this period, in the early summer of 1998, we began to reduce
our equity weighting; this allowed us both to avoid in part the dramatic drop in
equity prices in late summer, while also providing us the cash to reinvest at
lower prices in the early fall.
Of course, not all of our stock selection or asset allocations were so
fortuitous. In particular, we have been disappointed recently by the performance
in the health care sector, which has slowed considerably over the past several
months. The recent problems in the bond market caused by higher interest rates
have also slowed performance over the last couple months -- but they are largely
unavoidable for a fund such as ours.
CYCLICAL ROTATION
Increasingly convinced that economic growth at home will not slow substantially,
investors have recently turned to so-called "value" stocks of companies
operating in traditional industries. We are optimistic that this trend holds
promise for our fund as well. Even within traditional industries such as basic
materials-processing and energy, investors can find companies using new
technologies or business models to create new growth potential. With our
experience across all sectors, we feel well-positioned to identify such
opportunities.
We look forward to reporting to you on our progress in six months.

INDUSTRIAL INCOME FUND
Your Fund's Performance: A Report from the Manager
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Shareholder:
"I'm a slow walker," Abraham Lincoln once remarked, "but I never walk back." We
cannot claim we never walk back--if that means suffering a loss in down markets.
Yet we try to adhere to the same philosophy, as we know many of you do as well.
The returns we enjoyed this year were solid, although they did not represent a
sprint forward of the kind enjoyed by many more aggressive funds. Still, we
covered some good distance, and we are hopeful that we will continue to head in
the right direction no matter what changes the market may throw at us.
For the one-year period ended May 31, 1999, the value of your shares rose
11.71%. This return lagged that of the S&P 500 over the same period, which rose
21.03%. At the same time, it exceeded the return of the Lehman
Government/Corporate Bond Index, which increased 4.06%. (Of course, past
performance is not a guarantee of future results.) Remember, the fund has the
flexibility to help cushion its equity investments through the use of
fixed-income securities.(1),(2)
A CHANGING STOCK ENVIRONMENT...
Our last report to you explained how some of the stocks in our portfolio
benefited late last year, as investors focused on a new "Nifty Fifty," a group
of large companies in favored, high-growth industries. Meanwhile other holdings
of ours were unable to participate in the market's very narrow advance.
Markets change, however. Lately, many of the traditional companies in our
portfolio have begun to outperform. Having seen their stocks pummeled as oil
prices sank in the face of the Asian financial crisis, energy companies enjoyed
an impressive rebound as investors determined that demand for natural gas and
other forms of energy might soon handily outstrip supply. The health care
sector, meanwhile, has stalled as investors began to question the very high
valuations attached to these companies, even though pharmaceutical makers and
others continue to enjoy very healthy profits. To our thinking, these changes
highlight the importance of diversification.

....AND BOND ENVIRONMENT AS WELL.
The bond markets have also reversed course somewhat. As we predicted in our last
communication to you, the "yield spread" between corporate bonds and Treasury
securities has narrowed in response to improving global economic conditions.
Investors have demanded less of a premium this year from issuers of corporate
bonds, perceiving that the risk of default has been lower--although, in our
opinion, this risk had always been exaggerated for most companies.
Indeed, merger activity has continued to benefit holders of corporate bonds.
Higher-risk lenders have continued to be purchased by larger, higher-rated
firms, leading to an instant improvement in the target companies' credit
ratings--and an immediate windfall for our shareholders.
On a less fortuitous note, however, interest rates have begun to inch upwards
based on concerns that the economy may be overheating--to the detriment of
bondholders. Although the Federal Reserve resisted any interest rate increases
through the end of May, many investors worried that it would soon raise rates in
order to prevent the return of inflationary pressures on the economy. While we
anticipated some increase in interest rates, we were discouraged by the
magnitude of the backup on the bond markets.
As you may know, at the shareholder meeting in May, shareholders approved
reorganizing Industrial Income Fund and Total Return Fund. As a result, the
fiscal year-end for both these funds, as well as Balanced Fund, is now May 31.
That, in turn, changed the quarterly dividend payment schedule to February, May,
August, and November.
WITHIN THE FUND, SOME CHANGES...
Within the fund, we have instituted some changes as well. Effective July 30,
1999, the name of Industrial Income Fund is changing to Equity Income Fund. This
change will better reflect our long-standing objective and strategy: current
income and capital appreciation through investment in both equities and
fixed-income securities. It will also reflect our greater emphasis on equities
over bonds.
...BUT OUR BASIC APPROACH REMAINS THE SAME
The recent changes in the market should remind shareholders that both sectors
and the companies within them move in and out of style with investors. As many
investors in high-flying Internet stocks have discovered, gains can quickly be
transformed into losses.
We continue to believe that there are three primary ways to help mitigate risk
while enjoying the long-term benefits of stock appreciation: finding companies
that provide current income in the form of dividends, maintaining a meaningful
presence across the economic sectors, and allocating a portion of the portfolio
to fixed-income securities.

TOTAL RETURN FUND
Your Fund's Performance: A Report from the Manager
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Shareholder:
The special effects spectacle of the summer of 1999 was the futuristic chariot
race in the new "Star Wars" film. In the scene, the young protagonist is pulled
on a high-tech chariot behind two large engines. One engine flames out, making
our hero fall behind, but he soon restarts the engine and surges back into the
race. This scene, we believe, provides an apt analogy to bear in mind when
considering our fund's performance this past year.
For the one-year period ended May 31, 1999, the value of your shares rose
10.34%. This return lagged that of the S&P 500 over the same period, which rose
21.03%. At the same time, it exceeded the return of the Lehman
Government/Corporate Bond Index, which increased 4.06%. (Of course, past
performance is not a guarantee of future results.) Remember, the fund has the
flexibility to help cushion its equity investments through the use of
fixed-income securities.(1),(2)
As you may know, at the shareholder meeting in May, shareholders approved
reorganizing Industrial Income Fund and Total Return Fund. As a result, the
fiscal year-end for both these funds, as well as Balanced Fund, is now May 31.
That, in turn, changed the quarterly dividend payment schedule to February, May,
August, and November.
SWITCHING ENGINES
This was a solid gain, but it came in fits and starts. As befits its design, the
fund "switched engines" in the face of the broad market declines of late last
year. As the stock market stalled and the world financial situation appeared
precarious, investors sought haven in U.S. Treasury securities. This helped our
portfolio of high-grade government securities, which rose in price as interest
rates fell.
In late fall, however, the fund's equity holdings stalled again with the
increased focus on high-growth stocks. Facing a still-uncertain economic
environment, investors flocked to the largest companies with the highest growth
rates (and the highest prices attached to their earnings). Given our focus on
value stocks, we did not participate in the rally which sent the closely watched
S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Averages to record levels.(2)

VALUE STOCKS REIGNITE
This spring, our stock portfolio engine reignited. The continuing strength of
the American economy and an apparent rebound in the global arena led investors
back into the stocks of the companies that are the engines of the global
economy. Higher interest rates also caused investors to place more emphasis on
present rather than future earnings, which also helped many of the companies in
our portfolio.
Larger forces may also have been at work. Over the 10 years from 1989 to 1998,
growth stocks have outperformed value stocks by over 4.5% per year--by some
measures an unprecedented record. Of course, observers can draw one of two
conclusions about the implications of this divergence. The first would be that
the markets have passed a threshold, and that fast-growing companies will
continue to trade at a very high premium to those in mature industries or with
lower growth rates because of other factors. The second conclusion, one to which
we adhere, is that the pendulum is about to swing back.
Admittedly, seeing longer trends in short-term market movements is a perilous
exercise at best. We are thus reluctant to speculate that the recent period of
superior performance by value stocks represents a real reversal in the market's
direction. Still, after several years of outperformance by growth stocks, we are
optimistic that valuations might be playing a larger role in investors'
decisions.

Moving Forward
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MOVING FORWARD: A REVIEW & STRATEGY SESSION WITH INVESCO'S COMBINATION STOCK AND
BOND FUND MANAGERS
NOT TOO LONG AGO, EVERYONE WAS TALKING ABOUT GLOBAL DEFLATION, AND NOW WE ARE
WORRYING ABOUT INFLATION AGAIN. HOW MIGHT RISING INTEREST RATES AFFECT THE
FUNDS?
JERRY PAUL: Rising interest rates are always a concern for bondholders, although
stable rates at higher levels can mean improved yields. Of course, investors'
main worry is that the Federal Reserve will act to raise official rates in an
effort to head off inflation. As of late May, the markets had already discounted
a quarter- to half-point increase, and yields on the 30-year Treasury bond had
not climbed much above 6 percent. Should rates climb above 6.5%, however, that
might cause more serious problems in the bond markets.
That said, we'll keep investing in corporate bonds based on our view of the
companies that issue them. In a strong economy, these companies are only getting
stronger. We have already seen some of our issuers get bought out, which
provides a quick boost to the price of our bonds.
ED MITCHELL: From a value investing standpoint, the movement upward in interest
rates is interesting. Over the past decade, while growth stocks generally
outperformed value stocks, long-term interest rates fell 4%. If we are seeing a
bottoming in the interest rate cycle, that might signal a trend favoring
slower-growing, conservatively priced stocks.
SO IS IT TIME FOR GROWTH FUNDS TO PAY MORE ATTENTION TO VALUATIONS?
CHARLIE MAYER: Growth investors should always pay attention to valuations--as
should all investors. It clearly does not make sense to pay too much for a
growing company that is overpriced, nor too much for a cheap company that is
overpriced. What may make sense for growth managers to do in this particular
environment, however, is to pay more attention to established companies in the
"sweet spot" of their earning cycles; that is, to the point at which their
earnings are about to accelerate because of changing economic conditions or
other market-specific factors.
COULD YOU IDENTIFY SOME OF THE COMPANIES ENTERING THAT CYCLE NOW?
CHARLIE MAYER: Some of the well-positioned semiconductor makers would fit in
that category. The market for DRAM chips, in particular, has taken a hammering
over the past years on concerns over overcapacity, but it is improving now--and
chips remain the building blocks of the information economy.
HOW WOULD YOUR APPROACH DIFFER, ED?
ED MITCHELL: As value managers, our first emphasis is on stocks that are
oversold. They may be oversold for systemic reasons, or because their sectors
are out of favor. Or simply because they have suffered a setback, and the
markets tend to overreact to bad news. That's when we try to pounce.
<PAGE>
INVESCO | Annual Report | May 31, 1999
Moving Forward (continued)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adaptec would be a good example. They are the leading producer of input/output
technology, but they had some disappointing earnings in the last quarter of
1997--and many investors seemed to forget all the promise that the company had
exhibited. But Adaptec kept making controllers, software and other products, put
its business back in order, and the stock price has appreciated nicely for us.
DO YOU SEARCH FOR THESE TURNAROUND STORIES, PETE?
PETE LOVELL: INVESCO's growth-oriented managers certainly won't ignore companies
that are putting the pieces back in order, but we are mostly interested in
companies that are poised to take advantage of a growing market--if they are
turnarounds, fine. Tandy Corp., the parent company of Radio Shack, is an
excellent example of a company that has been around awhile, went through some
tough times, but is now a leader in a growing market--the so-called "last mile"
that will bring digital communications through a broadband connection into the
home. Right now, you can walk into some Radio Shacks and arrange to have your
house wired, subscribe to a digital satellite service, and buy all the equipment
you need. That's a far cry from selling batteries.
MARKET HEADLINES:
JUNE 1998 TO MAY 1999
The strong annual returns recorded at the end of 1998 by the large company stock
indexes masked a period of turmoil in the markets as dramatic as any in recent
memory. With investors already nervous about valuations, confidence evaporated
in late summer when the Asian financial crisis appeared ready to spread like
wildfire through the world's emerging markets.
The quick actions of the Federal Reserve Board, bargain-hunting by stoic
investors, and other factors helped the markets reverse their losses in the
early fall. Yet most important, perhaps, was the continuing strength of the
American economy -- and behind it, the American consumer. Low unemployment and
interest rates, strong wage gains, and a resilient level of consumer confidence
kept money flowing into housing and the auto industry, the two bellwether
industries for the economy. Technology stocks led the rebound, as investors
looked for the industries with the highest growth rates and the most pricing
leverage.
Throughout the fall and winter, the largest, fastest-growing companies left the
rest of the market behind as investors kept one eye on the continuing problems
overseas and another on the blossoming technological promise of the American
economy. First health care stocks and then telecommunications issues
outdistanced the pack. Meanwhile, cyclical issues suffered, as did many small or
slower-growing company stocks.
By the spring of 1999, however, the threat of economic overheating rather than
worldwide depression loomed largest in many investors' minds. Signs of renewed
economic strength abroad and remarkable growth figures at home led many to
believe that the Federal Reserve would soon reverse course and lead interest
<PAGE>
rates higher -- and indeed, market interest rates crept upward. Too much growth
- -- rather than too little --encouraged many to head for cyclical industries
poised to benefit from improving markets.
As the "cyclical rotation" continued, the market averages seemed to bounce
against a ceiling, putting an end to their dizzying ascent since the fall. With
the economic outlook almost too bright and the market near its record levels,
investors began to speak again of the importance of stock selection and asset
allocation in place of playing the averages.
YEAR 2000 COMPUTER ISSUE.
Many computer systems in use today may not be able to recognize any date after
December 31, 1999. If these systems are not fixed by that date, it is possible
that they could generate erroneous information or fail altogether. INVESCO has
committed substantial resources in an effort to make sure that its own major
computer systems will continue to function on and after January 1, 2000. Of
course, INVESCO cannot fix systems that are beyond its control. If INVESCO's own
systems, or the systems of third parties upon which it relies, do not perform
properly after December 31, 1999, the Funds could be adversely affected.
In addition, the markets for, or values of, securities in which the Funds invest
may possibly be hurt by computer failures affecting portfolio investments or
trading of securities beginning January 1, 2000. For example, improperly
functioning computer systems could result in securities trade settlement
problems and liquidity issues, production issues for individual companies and
overall economic uncertainties. Individual issuers may incur increased costs in
making their own systems Year 2000 compliant. The combination of market
uncertainty and increased costs means that there is a possibility that Year 2000
computer issues may adversely affect the Funds' investments. At this time, it is
generally believed that foreign issuers, particularly those in emerging and
other markets, may be more vulnerable to Year 2000 problems than will be issuers
in the U.S.

INVESCO Notes to fiancial statements - INVESCO Combination Stock &
Bond Funds, Inc.
NOTE 1 -- ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. INVESCO Combination
Stock & Bond Funds, Inc. (formerly known as INVESCO Flexible Funds, Inc.,
formerly known as INVESCO Multiple Asset Funds, Inc.) (the "Fund") is
incorporated in Maryland and presently consists of three separate Funds:
Balanced Fund, Industrial Income Fund and Total Return Fund. On August 4, 1998,
the board of directors of the Fund approved a name change to INVESCO Combination
Stock & Bond Funds, Inc. The Fund's fiscal year-end was changed from July 31 to
May 31. Effective July 30, 1999, INVESCO Industrial Income Fund's name will
change to INVESCO Equity Income Fund.
On May 28, 1999, shareholders of the Industrial Income and Total Return Funds
approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Liquidation whereby
Industrial Income Fund, formerly INVESCO Industrial Income Fund, Inc., and Total
Return Fund, formerly part of INVESCO Value Trust, (collectively, the "Old
Funds"), were reorganized into the Fund, effective May 31, 1999.
The business and operations of the Old Funds were assumed and carried on by the
Fund without any change in investment objectives or policies. As part of the
reorganization, the Industrial Income Fund's and the Total Return Fund's fiscal
year-end were changed from June 30 and August 31, respectively, to May 31. The
investment objectives of the Fund's are: To achieve a high total return on
investment through capital appreciation and current income for Balanced and
Total Return Funds; and to seek the best possible current income for Industrial
Income Fund. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940
(the "Act") as a diversified, open-end management investment company.
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.
If market quotations or pricing service valuations are not readily available,
securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under procedures
established 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.
<PAGE>
Assets and liablities 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.
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. In the event of default on the obligation to
repurchase, the Fund has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the
proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. In the event of default or
bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of
the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings.
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. Income and expenses on foreign
securities are translated into U.S. dollars at rates of exchange prevailing when
accrued. 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. The cost of foreign securities
is translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange prevailing when such
securities are acquired.
The Fund may have elements of risk due to investments in foreign issuers located
in a specific country. Such investments 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 investment
securities includes fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations
in market value.
The Fund's use of short-term forward foreign currency contracts may subject it
to certain risks as a result of unanticipated movements in 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 U.S. Government.
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.
Balanced and Total Return Funds incurred and elected to defer post-October 31
currency losses of $33 and $15,770, respectively, to the year ended May 31,
2000. To the extent future capital gains are offset by capital loss carryovers,
such gains will not be distributed to shareholders.
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. Of the ordinary income distributions
declared for the period ended May 31, 1999, 18.17% for Balanced Fund, 34.47% for
Industrial Income Fund and 42.78% for Total Return Fund qualified for the
dividends received deduction available to the Fund's corporate 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.
<PAGE>
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.
For the period ended May 31, 1999, the effects of such differences were as
follows:
ACCUMULATED
ACCUMULATED UNDISTRIBUTED
UNDISTRIBUTED NET REALIZED
NET GAIN ON
INVESTMENT INVESTMENT PAID-IN
FUND INCOME SECURITIES CAPITAL
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Balanced Fund $ 16,701 $ 59 $ (16,760)
Industrial Income Fund 13,913 (13,913) 0
Total Return Fund (6,509) 21,093 (14,584)
Net investment income, net realized gains and net assets were not affected.
F. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- The Fund enters into short-term
forward foreign currency contracts in connection with planned purchases or sales
of securities as a hedge against fluctuations in foreign exchange rates pending
the settlement of transactions in foreign securities. A forward foreign currency
contract is an agreement between contracting parties to exchange an amount of
currency at some future time at an agreed upon rate. These contracts are
marked-to-market daily and the related appreciation or depreciation of the
contracts is presented in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any realized
gain or loss incurred by the Fund upon the sale of securities is included in the
Statement of Operations.
G. EXPENSES -- Each of the Funds bears expenses incurred specifically on its
behalf and, in addition, each Fund bears a portion of general expenses, based on
the relative net assets of each Fund.
Under an agreement between each Fund and the Fund's Custodian, agreed upon
Custodian Fees and Expenses are reduced by credits granted by the Custodian from
any temporarily uninvested cash. Similarly, Distribution Fees and Transfer Agent
Fees may be reduced by credits earned by each Fund from security brokerage
transactions under certain broker/service arrangements with third parties. Such
credits are included in Fees and Expenses Paid Indirectly in the Statement of
Operations.
For the period ended May 31, 1999, Fees and Expenses Paid Indirectly consisted
of the following:
CUSTODIAN FEES DISTRIBUTION TRANSFER
FUND AND EXPENSES FEES AGENT FEES

Return Fund are made by ICM. Fees for such sub-advisory services are paid by
IFG.
A plan of distribution pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the Act (the "Plan") provides
for compensation of marketing and advertising expenditures to INVESCO
Distributors, Inc. ("IDI" or the "Distributor"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
IFG, to a maximum of 0.25% of annual average net assets. For the period ended

Distributor $516,187, $11,115,878 and $1,542,554, respectively, under the plan
of distribution.
IFG receives a transfer agent fee from each Fund at an annual rate of $20.00 per
shareholder account, or, where applicable, per participant in an omnibus
account, per year. IFG may pay such fee for participants in omnibus accounts to
affiliates or third parties. The fee is paid monthly at one-twelfth of the
annual fee and is based upon the actual number of accounts in existence during
each month.
In accordance with an Administrative Agreement, each Fund paid 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. Effective May 13, 1999, each Fund
pays IFG an annual fee of $10,000, plus an additional amount computed at an

NOTE 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 5% of the Net Assets at Value for Industrial Income
Fund and 10% of the Net Assets at Value for Balanced and Total Return Funds.
Each Fund agrees to pay annual fees and interest on the unpaid principal balance
based on prevailing market rates as defined in the agreement. At May 31, 1999,
there were no such borrowings.
NOTE 7 -- ACQUISITION OF INVESCO COMBINATION STOCK & BOND FUNDS, INC. --
MULTI-ASSET ALLOCATION FUND ("TARGET FUND"). On June 11, 1999, Balanced Fund
acquired all the net assets of the Target Fund pursuant to an Agreement and Plan
of Reorganization and Termination approved by the Target Fund shareholders on
May 20, 1999. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 669,846
shares of Balanced Fund (valued at $11,140,475) for the 989,950 shares of the
Target Fund outstanding on June 11, 1999. The Target Fund's net assets at that
date ($11,140,475) including $866,856 of unrealized appreciation, were combined
with those of Balanced Fund. The aggregate net assets of Balanced Fund and the
Target Fund immediately before the acquisition were $327,886,557 and
$11,140,475, respectively. The net assets of Balanced Fund after the acquisition
were $339,027,032.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
INVESCO Combination Stock and Bond Funds, Inc.
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the statement of investment securities, and the related statements of operations
and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of INVESCO Balanced Fund (formerly one
of the portfolios constituting INVESCO Flexible Funds, Inc. which was formerly
known as INVESCO Multiple Asset Funds, Inc.), INVESCO Industrial Income Fund
(formerly INVESCO Industrial Income Fund, Inc.) and INVESCO Total Return Fund
(formerly one of the portfolios constituting INVESCO Value Trust, Inc.),
collectively constituting INVESCO Combination Stock and Bond Funds, Inc.
(hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at May 31, 1999, the results of each of
their operations for each of the periods indicated, the changes in each of their
net assets for each of the periods indicated and the financial highlights for
each of the periods indicated, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter
referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at May 31, 1999 by correspondence with the custodian,
provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
