Dear Investors:
 
     We are pleased to provide you with this report on the operations of the JNL
Series Trust for the
six-month period ended September 30, 1996.
 
     The JNL Series Trust has sixteen Series, each of which is managed by one of
eight professional money managers. The performance of each of the Series is
influenced by its investment objective and the investment style of its money
manager. Despite their differing approaches to the markets, all of the Series
returned positive performance during the six-month period ended September 30,
1996.
 
     The United States financial markets were extremely volatile during the
period. The equity markets declined significantly in July, then recovered and
posted a gain for the period. Interest rates rose early in the period, putting
pressure on stocks, but fell after the Federal Reserve Board chose not to raise
rates at both the August and September Federal Open Market Committee meetings.
The bond markets diverged sharply from the equity markets. The bond markets fell
during the second calendar quarter and, while they posted both gains and losses
throughout the second half of the period, ended the third calendar quarter close
to where they started. The volatility in both the equity and bond markets was
driven by divergent opinions concerning the strength of the economy.
 
     The international markets performed well overall during the period with
most of the gains occurring in the second calendar quarter. The emerging markets
sector posted impressive returns and the European markets turned in good
performance, while the Japanese market showed some weakness.
 
     I hope you are pleased with the performance of the JNL Series Trust. Thank
you for your continued confidence in our products and services. We strive to
provide successful investment vehicles for your financial goals.
 
                                          Respectfully,
                                          John A. Knutson
                                          John A. Knutson

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION
 
     JNL Series Trust ("Trust") is an open-end management investment company
organized under the laws of Massachusetts, by a Declaration of Trust, dated June
1, 1994. The Trust is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trust currently offers shares in
sixteen (16) separate Series, each with its own investment objective. The shares
of the Trust are sold primarily to life insurance company separate accounts to
fund the benefits of variable annuity policies.
 
     The Trust is comprised of the following Series: JNL Aggressive Growth, JNL

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
     The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements.
 
     USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of net increase (decrease) in
net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
 
     SECURITY VALUATION -- Bonds are valued on the basis of prices furnished by
a service which determines prices
 
                                       14

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
                                JNL SERIES TRUST
 
           NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
for normal institutional size trading units of bonds, without regard to exchange
or over-the-counter prices. When quotations are not readily available, bonds are
valued at fair market value determined by procedures approved by the Board of
Trustees. Stocks listed on a national or foreign stock exchange are valued at
the final sale price, or final bid price in absence of a sale. Stocks not listed
on a national or foreign stock exchange are valued at the closing bid price on
the over-the-counter market. Short-term securities maturing within 60 days of
purchase, and all securities in the PPM America/JNL Money Market Series, are
valued at amortized cost, which with accrued interest approximates market value.
American Depository Receipts ("ADRs"), which are certificates representing
shares of foreign securities deposited in domestic and foreign banks, are traded
and valued in U.S. dollars.
 
     SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are
accounted for no later than trade date plus one. Dividend income is recorded on
the ex-dividend date or, in the case of certain foreign securities, as soon as
reliable information is available to the Trust. Interest income, including
level-yield amortization of discounts and premiums, is accrued daily. Realized
gains and losses are determined on the specific identification basis, which is
the same basis used for federal income tax purposes.
 
     FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS -- The accounting records of the Trust are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars
using exchange rates in effect at the close of the New York Stock Exchange.
Purchases and sales of investment securities, income receipts, and expense
payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on
the respective dates of such transactions.
 
     Realized gains and losses arising from selling foreign currencies and
certain non-dollar denominated fixed income securities, entering into forward
foreign currency exchange contracts, and accruing income or settling portfolio
purchases and sales denominated in a foreign currency paid or received at a
later date are recorded as net realized foreign currency related gains (losses)
and are considered ordinary income for tax purposes. Realized and unrealized
gains and losses on investments which result from changes in foreign currency
exchange rates are primarily included in net realized gains (losses) on
investments and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments,
respectively.
 
     FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- Some of the Series may enter into foreign
currency contracts ("contracts"), generally to hedge foreign currency exposure
between trade date and settlement date on security purchases and sales ("spot
hedges") or to minimize foreign currency risk on portfolio securities
denominated in foreign currencies ("position hedges"). All contracts are valued
at the forward currency exchange rate and are marked-to-market daily. When the
contract is open, the change in market value is recorded as net unrealized
appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency related items. When the contract
is closed, the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was
opened and the value at the time it was closed is recorded as net realized gain
(loss) on foreign currency related items.
 
     The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts does not eliminate
fluctuations in the underlying prices of the Series' portfolio securities, but
it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future.
Although contracts limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the
hedged currency, they also limit any potential gain that might result should the
value of the currency increase. Additionally, the Series could be exposed to the
risk of a previously hedged position becoming unhedged if the counterparties to
the contracts are unable to meet the terms of the contracts. See Note 7 for a
listing of open forward foreign currency exchange contracts as of September 30,
1996.
 
     WHEN-ISSUED AND DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS -- The Series may purchase
securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. On the trade date, the
Series record purchases of when-issued securities and reflects the values of
such securities in determining net asset value in the same manner as other
portfolio securities. Income is not accrued until settlement date.
 
     DOLLAR ROLL TRANSACTIONS -- The Salomon Brothers/JNL Global Bond Series and
the Salomon Brothers/JNL U.S. Government & Quality Bond Series entered into
dollar roll transactions with respect to mortgage securities in which the Series
sells mortgage securities and simultaneously agrees to repurchase similar (same
type, coupon and maturity) securities at a later date at an agreed upon price.
During the period between the sale and repurchase, the Series forgoes principal
and interest paid on the mortgage securities sold. The Series is

           NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

compensated by the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the initial sale and
from negotiated fees paid by brokers offered as an inducement to the Series to
"roll over" its purchase commitments.
 
     REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Certain Series in the Trust may invest in
repurchase agreements. A repurchase agreement involves the purchase of a
security by a Series and a simultaneous agreement (generally by a bank or
broker-dealer) to repurchase that security back from the Series at a specified
price and date or upon demand. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by the Series custodian bank until the maturity of the
repurchase agreement. Procedures for all repurchase agreements have been
designed to assure that the daily market value of the collateral is in excess of
the repurchase agreement in the event of default.
 
     DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- The PPM America/
JNL Money Market Series declares dividends daily and pays dividends monthly. For
all other Series, dividends from net investment income are declared and paid
annually, but may be done more frequently to avoid excise tax, for the rest of
the Series. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be
distributed at least annually. All income, dividends, and capital gains
distributions, if any, on Series shares are reinvested automatically in
additional shares of the Series at the NAV determined on the first business day
following the record date, unless otherwise requested by the shareholder.
 
     FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The Trust's policy is to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute income in amounts that will avoid federal income or
excise taxes for each Series. The Trust may periodically make reclassifications
among certain of its capital accounts as a result of the recognition and
characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions determined
annually in accordance with federal tax regulations which may differ from
generally accepted accounting principles.
 
     For federal income tax purposes, PPM America/JNL High Yield Bond Series
had a capital loss carryover totaling $24,875 expiring in 2004 which can be
used to offset future realized capital gains.
 
NOTE 3. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
     JNFSI is the investment adviser of each Series and provides each Series
with professional investment supervision and management. JNFSI provides
accounting services, preparation of financial statements, tax services, and
regulatory reports to the Trust. In addition to providing the services described
above, JNFSI selects, contracts with, and compensates sub-advisers to manage the
investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Trust.
 
     As compensation for its services, JNFSI receives a fee from each Series.
The fees, which are accrued daily and payable monthly, are calculated on the
basis of the average daily net assets of each Series. Once the average net
assets of a Series exceed specified amounts, the fee is reduced with respect to
such excess. The following is a schedule of the fees each Series is currently
obligated to pay JNFSI.

 * Prior to September 16, 1996, the sub-advisory fees payable to Janus for these
   Series were: $0 to $50 million -- .60%; $50 to $150 million -- .55%; $150 to
   $300 million -- .45%; $300 to $500 million -- .40%; over $500 million --
   .40%.
 
** When average assets exceed this amount, the sub-advisory fee asterisked is
   applicable to all amounts in this Series.
 
     Trustees not affiliated with Jackson National receive a fee of $2,500 for
each meeting of the Board of Trustees attended as well as certain out of pocket
expenses. No remuneration has been paid by the Trust to any of the officers or
affiliated Trustees. The Trust paid fees of $12,500 to non-affiliated Trustees
for the period ended September 30, 1996.
 
     Each Series is charged for those expenses that are directly attributable to
it, such as advisory, custodian, accounting services and certain shareholder
service fees, while other expenses that cannot be directly attributable to a
Series are allocated in equal proportion to each Series.
 
     Currently, the Adviser reimburses each of the Series for annual expenses
(excluding the management fee) in excess of .15% of average daily net assets.
These voluntary reimbursements may be modified or discontinued by the Adviser at
any time.
 
     During the period ended September 30, 1996, the Series earned credits on
uninvested cash balances held by each Series at the custodian. These credits
were used to reduce custodian expenses. Of the credits for the JNL/Alger Growth
Series, $14,049 was used to reduce expenses and the remaining $45,173 in credits
are included in interest income.

NOTE 6. FOREIGN SECURITIES
 
     Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments
involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with
investing in U.S. companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include
revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic
developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign companies and foreign
governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile
than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. Government.
